Cut this out for reference HANSEN TO WRITE ON RATE MAKING Graduate Electrical Working Up Thesis on Public Utilities Commissions "Rate making for electrical utilities" is the subject of a thesis now being worked up by C. F. Hansen, a graduate student in the electrical engineering department of the University. This thesis is a new one and an outgrowth of the movement recently started to do away with all graft and in connection with public utilities. The purpose of Hansen's thesis is to work out in brief form the method which committees investigating public utilities take, such as the return of "fair rate on fair value" of investment in public utilities. Aside from investigating methods pursued by these commissions a study is made of rate making from the point of view of cost of service. In this the question of uniform accounting is considered, such as agitated by the National Electrical Association and the National Electrical Association, which has a standing committee to work up outlines for uniform accounting for all electrical utilities. In the cost of service theory Hanson gives due consideration to the length of time a customer of electrical utility uses the commodity of the utility, and to the relation of amount of electrical energy that he consumes to the total output of the electrical plant. Hanson's work as a whole consists of looking up decisions of supreme and district courts and decisions of public service commissions. Special attention is paid to the Wisconsin Railway commission and the New York Public Service Commission of the first district since these two are the pioneer commissions formed in 1907, OREAD DEBATERS ABOUT READY FOR CHAMPIONSHIP Final arrangements for the debate between the Oread and the K.

The question to be debated: "Resolved, that in addition to the present immigration requirements a test of the ability to read and write in some one language should be demanded, not applying however to children under 14 years or parents over 50 years who are dependent on qualified immigrants." The Oread has the negative. The winner will debate with the Cooley club for the championship of the University. LOST—Alpha Delta Phi pin, edged with pearls and has diamond points. Return 1142 Ind.

Several High School Boys The young man who finds himself with something of the pioneering spirit, in addition to scientific tastes, and social interests, will do well to consider sanitary engineering as a vocation. in Kansas are thinking of "going into" Sanitary Engineering The Daily Kansan's Educational Department will see that inquiries addressed to it are answered by the ones most competent to give full particulars regarding any vocation and the University courses preparatory for it. Address the "The best looking baby girl in the state of Oklahoma was born on the morning of March 9 to Mr. and Mrs. Roy E. Spear of Bartlesville, Oklahoma. The only thing that will prevent her from being the center of the Varsity gridiron regulars in 1930 is the fact that she is a girl. However, Ms. Spear insists that she will follow in her mother's footsteps and be a basket-ball toser. Here's hopin'." WHAT THEY SAY to the CIRCULATION MAN HE IS STILL IN SCHOOL L. H. Mosser, who is teaching in the Newton high school, says, "I am always glad to get the news in the Kansan when I get home in the evening after school." States and cities are just beginning to learn the necessity of employing competent sanitary engineers. To be sure we don't miss the item he adds, "this is to go in the first Kansan you issue after this letter reaches you." a comparative new profession that combines opportunities for personal success with those for public service, 4OUNT OREAD —GOD'S COUN- And then as a gentle reminder at the end he writes this postscript, "Be sure and send me an extra copy of the paper which contains the news." "Although most of the personals and "society squibs" are not understood by one who has been exiled from God's country for two years, I find a great amount in the Kansan to interest me. The paper deserves much credit for the manner in which the mill tax is presented and the way in which the opposing arguments were answered. * * * In short, I don't wish to be without the Kansan just yet." Roy Spear, center on the 1910 football team, sends us the following "special to the University Daily Kansan." We have been saving this for almost three months and we can't keep it out of the paper any longer. "Bully" is now appeased.

"Since this aforesaid Friday I have been forced to make the best of it with what news an occasional friend has told me, and can glean from the Chicago papers."
