HOW QUEEN'S HELPS THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG a --------s Tr - PROBS: Moderate winds, fair and mild today and Saturday. -- Neji! registsar of Queen's; + Ray VanLuven, - CITY OF KINGSTON Puts About One Million Dol- lars Into Circulation Mere Each Year. That Queen's University puts into circulation about one million dollars each year in the city of Kingston was the statement made by Dr. Me- 'before the Rotary Club on Thursday. In addition to this Queen's has spent a million dollars In the past five years on buildings. Each student, sald the speaker, spent an average of $250 for board and lodging and $100 for amusement, books, cloth- ing and sundries. As there were 1.200 students this totalled nearly $500,000. In addition $500,000 was spent by the University each] | "And he's too full of Farmer | Jonep corn to want to eat chip- : vear In salaries and other ways all of which, except thirty or forty thousand, was spent in the city. The money left in Kingston by the Queen's Summer School students was not taken into consideration in this estimate, he said. Dr. McNeill presented the question Chippy Chipmunk came into Mis- ter Bags' store one day, io the Woods, and held up a penny. "If you please, sir, I want to buy a kite."

Queen's was the third largest of the fifteen universities of Canada, he said, and in one way and another such as the intra-mural, extra-mural and sum- mer school registration and through the Canadian Bankers' Association dnd the Chartered Accountants of Ontario and Saskatchewan, touched almost as many students as McGill or University of Toronto. Endow- ment campaigns were necessary be- eause no university was self-support- ing, he sald, and the deficits had to be made up through private gifts, as in the case of McGill, or by Govern- ment grants, as in the case of U. of T. Queen's was supported partly by private gifts and partly by Govern- ment grants but at the last two ses- sions of the Provincial Legislature notice had been given that the grants which had during the past few years been $210,000 would be materially decreased. Student fees provided about one- third of the current revenue while the present endowment supplied one- fifth, he sald. The remainder was made up from government grants. If student fees were raised to a point where they would make the univer- sity self-supporting they would be , prohibitive, he declared, and there- fore it was necessary to increase the endowment, Expenses had increas ed during the past five years in spite of the most rigid economy and a few capital expenditures had been unavoidably incurred, thereby de- creasing the endowment. In addi- tion to all these things there' were conditions at the university such as overerowded classes, improperly housed apparatus and inadequate ap- paratus which would eventually have to be remedied and it would all take money. Dr. McNeill sald that he didn't think it was unreasonable that the city of Kingston, which benefitted to such a great extent economically and educationally through the pres- ence of the university, should be asked to assist the university at this time, Dr. H.
