time. Recently there has been a 25
per cent rise In fees nt the University

a schedule that will slightly top this.
There are some prospects of a small

AGE ElB HURTS WOMEN
I Because They Dodged Anniversaries
Federal Employes Lose Retirement
Washington, Sept. 13. Tho tradi
tional unwillingness that causes women
not to divulge their true ages has
brought grief bordering on tragedy to
several feminine employes Of the gov
ernment. They are now likely to lose
the benefits of tho federal retirement
law enacted by the last Congress.
The law provides that after persons
have been employed by the government
for n certain number of years and have
reached a ripe old age, when they should
receive a pension, they be retired with
a small income to meet their needs. At
tho time some of the elderly women In
the government service entered that
work they evidently did not expect n
pension law nor did they expect to
stay in the jobs so long.
For It now develops they have robbed
themselves of the benefit of the law.

titicu to it, tno recorus snow tu
