Paper Prices Still Continue to Go Skyward.
The alleged scarcity of rags, dyes, etc., used in making writing papers, has caused a tremendous advance in the wholesale price of bond and other writing papers in which rags are used for the manufacture, and where the prices will go ‘to before the end is reached is problematical. Some of the better quality of bonds used in The Democrat’s job printing department have advanced 25 per cerft in the last 60 days, and all prices quoted by the wholesale paper houses are subject to any advance that may take place before receipt ot order, 'the price of print paper, such as used in the printing of newspapers, is also climbing skyward and it will probably be necessary for newspaper publishers to advance their subscription rates hs well as the job printers to advance their prices for commercial work to meet the conditions. Perhaps a great deal of this inflation of prices all the way down the line is artificial and is caused by the men at the top boosting the price “because they can and ain’t afraid too.” But the only thing the retailer can do is to pay the price and advance the selling price accordingly.

The new dining halls which are being constructed at Princeton will have a grill and clubrooms along the lines of a university club. Large smoking rooms equipped withAdlliard tables will be provided for the freshman and sophomore classes, while there will be a reading room for all classes. Plans for the use of the grill room are not completed, but it is likely that its main use will be for the entertainment of visitors?""!! ip, thought that a unionized dining hall, where the great majority of the student body, especially the lower classes, gravitate three times a day, may prove an excellent substitute for a common clubhouse where a student’s social instinct may call him at only* odd intervals.
