REASON FOR HIGH PRICES
HIGHER STANDARD RAISES COST OF LIVING.
Man's Increasing Economic Wants Make Larger Demands to Be Filled, Thus Up Go Prices.
Prof. F. W. Blackmar makes an interesting addition to the discussion of "The Cost of Living" in an article which has been made public this week through the University extension department. He calls attention to the forces which have added greatly to the delight of living and says that education and intelligence have multiplied the desires of the people. The standard of life is perpetually rising and the higher it reaches the more it takes to sat isfy the normal demands of the individual.
The cost of living is not the result of high prices alone. Prof Blackmar contends, but more because we have more things to enjoy and must pay for them.
The telephone has become a necessity as its use saves time and energy. If the time and energy saved is turned into money the telephone is a good thing for the user, but he must have an increased income to pay the bill. Automobiles give little economic return, but they satisfy a new desire and are among the many things now enjoyed that we did not have formerly. To provide all these things there are increasing armies of men who must have wages.
Unless there is a proportionate increase in agricultural products the latter are high. There has not been, says Dr. Blackmar, and therefore prices of agricultural products are at present relatively higher than prices of other commodities.
The improved standard of living demands a continually in creasing income in the individual lives a normal life. It is impossible to satisfy all of the economic desires arising from this active expanding modern life. But certain of them must be satisfied in order that the individual shall have normal progressive life which is the chief aim of our civilization.

FRESHMEN DEFEATED RENO
Clay County Will Be the Attraction Tonight.
The freshmen defeated the Reno County High school basket-ball team last night by a score of 28 to 14. The high school boys put up a great game in the first half and it was all the tyros could do to scrape away with a one point lead The score at the end of the period was 19 to 9.
In the second half the freshmen ran away from their opponents and at the end of the game had almost doubled their score. The particular star of the game was Detter of Reno, who played all over the court and made the most of the high school points.
Tonight the freshmen play the Clay County high school five. This game will begin at 7:30. It have been intended that the freshmen play the Deaf Mute team from Olathe, but the "Silents" have been put in quarantine and consequently the game was canceled
Would Have Burdick
A movement which shows the esteem with which Professor W. L Burdick is held by the members of his classes, has been started by senior laws. Their plan is for each man to contribute $5 to a fund which will be used to pay Dr. Burdick to teach the partnership class during the last nine weeks of this term. The seniors completed all of their work under Professor Burdick last term but have asserted their desire of receiving the partnerships under him because of his wide knowledge on the subject.
Paul Surber, a freshman in the College, is visiting at Bonnet Springs.
The partnership class is sched uled under Professor Humble.
Clarence Burney, '96, now as assistant city counselor at Kansas City. Mo., was visiting on the hill Friday.

Bishop Griswold on Religion.
Bishop S. M. Griswold, of Salina, in his speech in chapel Friday morning, made a vigorous protest against the theory in a recent magazine article on "The Crusade Invisible," that the colleges which teach women as well as those teaching men are today arrayed against orthodox religion and teachings. Bishop Griswold believes that the author's premises and conclusions are wrong and that the doctrine advanced is false.
"The primary characteristic of students in this university is their tremendous earnestness," maintained Bishop Griswold. He believes that they are seeking the highest ideals along spiritual as well as material and intellectual lines. From his observation in the East he believes that there has never been a time when young people were as intensely religious as today.
To clearly explain his view Bishop Griswold defined religion as the sum of all the relations which exist between God and man Any attempt to narrow this conception is a very serious mistake. Therefore, though the laying aside of many things might still leave some religion, yet there must be mystery, miracle and the historic Christ in the religion which measures up to the definition.
Recognizing that some controversy is inevitable, Bishop Griswold urged the students to empha size the positive things in religion As the subject is of such supreme importance he said that students should be absolutely honest in their search for the truth as it is impossible to hold a true religion which leaves out sincerity.

A STUDENT WEDDING.
Mr. Beeghley and Miss Crandal Surprised Their Friends.
At the home of Mr. F. E. Stimpson, on Tennessee street, last night, at 7:30, occurred the wedding of Mrs. Stimpson's daughter, Miss Nellie R. Crandall, to Lloyd L. Beeghly. Dr. W. C. Payne of the University Bible chair performed the ceremony.
Both the young people are now juniors in the University. They intended to finish their course. Both were brought up in Sabetha where their association began five years ago when they were students in the high school. Mr. Beeghly entered the University last year as a sophomore from Beloit College, and Miss Crandall entered from Washburn. They had planned ever since their engagement, two years ago,to spend at least the senior year of their college life together, but their wedding last night was a complete surprise to all except the few intimate friends who were present.
the out-of-town guests present at the wedding were Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Beeghly of Sabetha, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. I. Smith of Oneida, and Mr. F. R. Robinson and Miss Nettie Robinson of Oswego.
Mr. and Mrs. Beeghly will occupy rooms at 1415 Massachusetts street where they will be at home to their friends after February 18.
