THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
CO-OPERATIVE BUYING IS FRATERNITIES' IDEA
Stewards of Various Houses Wil Meet Thursday to Plan for Next Year
Among the many current plans for combating the high cost of living is the one of co-operative buying of groceries and meats for fraternity houses. Altho thus for, this has merely been made as a suggestion and no definite measures have been taken to find out its practical possibilities it seems to require. It was recently discussed at a meeting of the stewardess of the national and professional fraternities of the University.
It is said that a local butcher has offered a 15 per cent reduction on all meats bought collectively. The stewardies believe that if more of the merchants and dealers could be made to see the advantages of such a system of buying and then lions fruticoses could get together so plan that the h. c. l. might be given at least one good knuck.
There will be another meeting of the stewards Thursday night and it is probable that more definite plans will be discussed then. It is now so clear that all overhead made will be carried over for next year's use.
Bachelor Premium Pleases Spinsters
Montreal, Quebec, May 12. (United Press.) — A decision rendered in a local court recently declared the Bachelor Tax legal brings forth some starting information as to the reasons for the increase from the financial gain for the city.
The "hardshell" claim, and with some reason, that spinsters of this city think their chances of hurrying their resisting swains into "popping the question" will be improved if urged on by the president in a "state of single blessness" by the persistent tax department of Montreal.
According to the statement by a city tax official almost 100 "informing" letters had reached his office giving the names of bachelors subject to the tax, and almost all of the letters were written in a feminine style, far as to give their own names and addresses, but implored secrecy.
The bachelor tax law provides that all male persons over 25 years of age shall pay $10 each year. The law was contested by the family and the talent and many of the bachelors claimed that although single they had more responsibility than most married men, some supporting their mothers and others helping them down declares the law constitutional and all must pay regardless of dependents.
