A lively and honey surrounding made so by cheerful associates is the secret of the success of the co-operative movement this year according to thirty women of the University, who have demonstrated and proved that the cottage plan is the ideal suggestion for solving the rooming problem.
"I believe that life in a Co-operative house is the finest course one can enter if she wishes to learn the intrinsic values of every day life," said one of the women who has helped make the movement a success.
Similar sentiments have been given by all who have taken part in the movement. They have said:
"It is easy enough to enjoy a social
"Itil with many people and to work
successfully with them involves many
new elements. To be able to co-operate
with others and to make work a
pleasure is a great accomplishment."
"I feel that the two co-operative houses have been more than a successful business enterprise. They have given a University home to women who otherwise would have missed a part of college life. Many who live in private homes fail to get the spirit of college association."
Veary Willies Still Have Old Wanderlus
Pittsburgh, May 21—United Press)
—Hobbes, just bits of human drift-
wood, are not diminishing in number
but real "down-and-outers" are scarce
The wave of prosperity is protecting
the latter class, but chronic "bums"
find no attractions in high wage
scales.
J. H. Flaherty told the United Press these facts, which he said, are based on his observations as management for the Improvement of the Poor.
"A year ago from 125 to 180 fortunates were housed nightly in the association's rooms here. Now they are a major attraction thirty," said Flaherty, who added emphatically that prohibition was not responsible for the decrease as only a small portion of the lodgers or baitariates even "in the old days."
"Wandlerst is born in some men. It is sedum acquired in others. Many lodgers refuse off of 60 cents an hour for work in Pittsburg, but were anxious to work at 40 cents if employment was found in other cities—in any direction. They simply want to be on the go."

Dean Butler has no studio. On this subject he said, "I have had to use three different studios in giving & single half hour lesson.
“What we must have is a $250,000 building which will last at least five years before needing addition. It must have twenty-five studios, six class rooms, thirty practice rooms, and so on.
