MisSouri's Greatest Public School.
Standing Of tte State University. Its recent Growth
and Progress. What it Means To Missouri.
Most Rapidly Growing Institution OF Higher Learning in the
United States.

growth has exceeded that Of any
other American institution Of similar
character. 1t is confidently predict
ed by those who are best informed
that the next school year will see al
most 5000 OF the young men and
women Of Missouri gathered in the
halls Of the various Colleges and De-
partmcnts OF the University.
During all the time that thi, rapid
growth has been in progress the en-
trance requirements to the University
have been continually increased. As
a result, in order that they may meet
these higher standards. a correspond
ing development and growth has TAX
en- place in the high schools Of the
state. For high schools are the feed
crs Of the University. They are its
only preparatory school. since the
ordinary preparatory Department,
with which most institutions OF higher
learning are still cnculnbercd. was
abolished Mt the University more than
fifteen years ago.
The growth in attendance has not
been the only mark OF progress. TO
meet the increasing demand which
these young men and women have
been making there has necessarily
taken place an increase in the equip
ncnt and in the teaching force. To-
day the University has at its disposal
thiIty-seven splendid buildings of
brick and stone, well furnished for
the work which the University has to
do. These magnificent structures
are grouped around central quad
rangle in the center Of which stand
six stately columns, the only memen-
tos still remaining Of the old Univer-
sity, which burned to the ground in
a terrible confagration nearly twenty
years ago. The grounds, buildings
and equipment are valued At more
than $4,000, 900. Nearly two hum

Probably no state in the Union can
boast OF better public school system
1han can Missouri. Comprising pro-
VISION Tor every degree OF education
from the kindergarten through the
grade schools. nigh schools and Nor
mails to institutions organized for the
most advanced intellectual training.
This system stands today with hardly
',n equal anywhere in the entire cOun-
try. AT the very top is the State
University. OF this institution every
MiSsuurian has right to be proud.
Time was when one who would seek a
higher education was compelled to
search for il in distant states and to
secure it. if at all, only after having
overcome Obstacles almost nsur-
mountablc to any save those who
were blcSt @ith much Of this world S

thanks to the foresight, Of the pioneer
settlers Of the State, any young man
" woman, in any Missouri cornnuni-
". who is ambitions 70 secure an
education OF the highest type can get
it in his own state. This is true
whether they be possessed Of means
~ not. Every year hundreds Of wor-
thy young men and women. endowed
"ith pluck and energy. are making
their way ut the University m MIS-
sorri and at the same time pursuing
courses Of study in the various De-
partIncnts Of The institution. with emf

OF the University is equivalent to the
interest on an endowment OF more

Whatever may be the ambition Of
the young man or woman. whether it
be for success in the business world
or for professional career. Missouri
opens to him the door OF opportunity
in this great public school. Here.

James Wilson. has termed in some
respects the best College Of Agricul-

knowledge of scientific farming which
the successful farmer of the future
must necessarily possess. Here also
he may prepare for the practice Of
the Law in one Of the best Law
schools in the entire country. And
here nc may prepare Tor Medicine.
for Engineering. for Journalism. or
for Teaching. Or il he aSpircs for
general culture only. or desires t.
prcccdc his professional specialization
by general college training, then he
may attend the College Of Art and
Science which here. as in other great
universities, is the center Of university
life around which arc grouped the
various professional schools. In this
Department nearly 1860 students, in
Guiding 500 young ladies'. were en-
rolled last year. It is this Depart
mcnt that gives the historic degree OF
Bachelor OF Arts and the higher de-
grecs OF Master of Arts and Doc tor OF
Philosophy. All OF these Depart
mcnts are open. free Of charge. to
any who arc prepared TO enter.
In answer 10 the question, "Does
"a College Education pay3". there
can be but one reply. Statistics pre-
pared by the L. S. Department OF
Ednca,ion show that but one boy in
5000 who has only finished the COM
mon schools will attain distinction in
any line OF human activity. OF those
with high school education one in

but Of those who have college edu-
cation one out OF every A. will attain
a national reputation and practically
all will achieve more than ordinary
