OXFORD, England (AP) Ox ford tradesmen ur gravely con-, cerned over tho increasing ten-! dency of undergraduates to pay i cash for their purchase. The new fashion save the postage on the customary 36 monthly duns, but It in runs the Ions of the extravagant custom of the young Verdant (Jreens of prewar days, who order-' d silk dressing gowns by the half dozen In tho serene belief that bills due threo years hence aro really no proper bills at all. 1 Tradesmen are discovering that. the man who buys for cash buys' carefully and stints tho more exotic! cmviugs of his fancy. Worse still they are discovering that he prefers. to do his buying in London, where a shopping excursion is a very de-i sirable excuse for a restful after-' noon in one of the inustc halls. London competition is far from pleasing, for it was long ago set-! tied that Oxford prices should be set well above those of the ne-' tropolis during term time, to carry over the lean vacation when streets are deserted and tradesmen recline against their sturdy oak counter i in mid and wistful boredom. ' Tile increase In cash purchases is indicative of a shining of social standards. Few er undergraduates are now the sons of choleric and unbusinesslike old country gentle men wiili gout and ancient lint-ige; more and more Iroin the very re cently acquired country swits of moneyed men ot husines.s who are ; better judgts ot accounts (ban of ! ho niett and Maderia. In the uni- ! versiiy as elsewhere the easy-going ' credit system bacd on the. unim peachable honesty, solvency und re spectability of Ihe settled country families is giving way to the rule of ready cash.

"The city of Cleveland," she ob serves, "has found the ideal solu tion of the problem, in that educa tion for tho blind is not rarriod on in special schools for the blind, I ! blind pupils are interspersed among the sighted children. This procedure is of the greatest benefit not only to the' blind children, but to the others as well, in that It ac customs them to getting nlong with their less fortunate fellow pupils nnd shows them lhat a blind stu dent can do fully as well as a sight ed one. "n'ho feelinfr of human pride is finite as pronounced w it h blind people-as It is with those enjoying eye tight. S'lf -confidence can be encouraged among t ho blind only If they reel that they are being of fered an opportunity to show that they can hold their own In compe tition wilii others. If the blind are separated from I he sighted, this confidence can never be instilled in tlieiu. America is rhsnlutely right in mixing the blind in with the sighted." 1 Hart Schaffner & Marx And Other Well-Known Makes $35 to $55 CCD. OK i;; tho lieyimto this f.casuii.
