lar interest to people in every part of

during the last three years. In TACT,
a current history OF Missouri of sur
passing interest could b.. compiled.
without change, from the pages OF the
Sunday Post-Dispatch Magazine. No
phase of life, no form OF human emo
nance Of any kind ~ revealed in the
course OF every day events in Missou-
ri, or which had its origin in Missou-
ri, has been overlooked. The name
OF Missouri and of its greatest city,
st. Louis, have ever been kept in the
foreground. and this fact has done
more to advertise them to the world
than all other agencies combined.

ures, the Sunday Post-Dispatch can
