Will the Men Waltz

To the Editor of the University Missourian:
/ Before any more criticisms are made
against the women of the university,
1t might be well to hear their side of
the football question. 1t has been
said that the women on the south
bleachers left the field Saturday dur
ing the singing of "Old Missouri
Some one presumed to call this sec
tion the wOmen's section and hurled
wholesale criticism against the spirit
OF all the women because of the con-
duct of few. The men must not
forget that their own college spirit as
/ whole is of very recent origin and
was only aroused by a lively mass
meeting in each department. Now.
Ike children with a new toy, they turn
on the women and say, You haven't
got one They forget how recently
a bad play on the part of the Varsity
team was met with the cry of Rotten"
from a dozen throats, and how silent
the rooters used to be during a losing
game.
Let the men wait. The women have
set the date for their mass meeting.
They are ready and eager to show
their spirit. Give them their chance.
True, some of them left the south
bleachers before "Old Missouri was
ended. Some men left too, but most
OF these people were townspeople and
all were in ignorance of the plan to
sing "Old Missouri" The announce.
ment was not made to the south
bleachers. None of them should have
left, but let him who is without fault
cast the first stone"
Is the man who knocks indiscrim.
inately on the university women any
more loyal to his Alma Mater than
the woman who leaves the field while
old Missouri" is being sung?
The women are waking to this glor
ious new spirit. Will the men wait?

organized" The Star says. True.
You and 1.-THE average" men-are
not wealthy, perhaps, but, unknow-
ingly, we are well organized" That
is our political masters have us well in
hand, and we are traded in punches,
roped by our devotion to party solidar-
lty." 1t is not difficult task for
the privilege-seeking interests" to
gather in the dividends from their
liberal campaign contributions.
However, signs are hopeful for a
change. There are indications that
party solidarity" is granulating. In
dividual character is in the ascend
ancy, and it is not difficult to predict
that at the next general election, in
greater degree than ever heretofore,
the voter will express his preference
for men, regardless of party.

The CosmoIoqicaI Question.

The business of life allows no spare
time any more. One cannot get rich
nowadays in office hours, nor become
great, nor keep Geographically in
formed, nor do his share of talking and
listening. Everybody but the plumber
and paper hanger works overtime. How
the earth keeps up necessary amount
of whirling in the old 24-hour limit is
more than we can understand. But
she can't keep up the pace much
longer. She must have an extra hour.
And how to snatch it from the tail
end of eternity is the burning cosmo-
logical question-Atlantic Monthly

THE CARNEGIE FOUNDATION.

The Carnegie Foundation for the
advancement OF teaching, which was
established in the year 1905 is doing
noble work. In giving retired pro-
fessors and teachers a fixed income,
it furnishes protection in old age. AL
though the true teacher finds his chief
recompense in the work of teaching
itself, it is clear that strong men
will not be attracted in large numbers
to the profession, unless with the in
tellectual reward are coupled certain
pecuniary advantages.
Formerly, teachers who had grown
old in service, with but meager salar-
les, were left to fight out what re-
mained of life's battle, alone and ur-
aided. Today the way has frightened
before them, and although their pay
is yet much lower than it should be,
they at least have the assurance that
they will not be driven to the Door
house in old age.

DEMAGOGERY.

There is always a class of men who
are ready to bid for the support of the
people. In their great anxiety to
please, these men are willing to satisfy
the demands of an ignorant public,
merchant should advertise through
own conscience knows to be right.
1t is proper that public servants
should serve the people in the way
they demand, so long as the demands
are consistent. But whenever the
public demands that which the public
servant disapproves and knows to be
wrong, let the servant refrain from
pleasing the people and follow the
dictates of his own conscience. IF,
to please the people," said George
Washington, I'VE offer that which we
ourselves disapprove, how can we de-
fend our work."

THE VOTE OF THE AVERAGE MAN

When the average man makes a
practice of watching the course of his
representatives and senators as closely
as the privilegeseeking interests do,
then he will find that he is really
represented at Washington.
This observation by the Kansas City
Star has an element of triteness, per-
haps, but it epitomizes and places the
responsibility for any complaints the
people may make of congressional cor
ruption or congressional inefficiency.
The average man" is intent on his
own petty business affairs: he is we'd
ded to party; he votes as his father
voted. This embraces his interest in
or knowledge of politics.
The men who are seeking govern
ment favors are wealthy and we'll

A MINIMUM FINE.

The fact that a violatOr of the law
pleads guilty, especially if he is a per
sistent violator, should not prevent a
maximum fine from being assessed
a minimum fine in such cases en-
courages further disregard of the
law.
When an offender has been before
the court repeatedly and his guilt is
we'll known in the community, even
admitted by himself, and the officials
/ insist upon the least possible punish
ment, they are encouraging the crime
1t is like the indulgent mother who
Furnishes her spoiled child, and then
hugs it to her bosom and begs its
pardon.
Law becomes a farce when favorit-
ism is shown. and when the incorrigible
offender receives minimum fine.
Would it not be good thing to
sing "Old Missouri at the beginning
of football games as well as at the
close. Furthermore, when Missouri is
spelled would it not be well for the
yell leader to give the rooters the
pitch so there could be more uniform
ity? And still further, does not every
body think "Mizzou, Mizzou, Mizzou
Rah,' the best and most characteristic
yell?
The student senate conducted the
class rush successfully, and promised
to end hazing Immediately. Since
that time there have been no fewer
than six different cases of hazing.
Has the senate adjourned, or merely
gone into executive session?

ON BEING AN ENCOURAGER.

People in all walks of life have at
some time or other failures and dis
couragements that tend to make their
lives sad and gloomy for the while
At this period they feel the need of a
cheerful word, word of encourage
ment or of consolation. Behind this
despOndency lies sunshine and cheer
fulness if it only can be brought out.
Many men having fallen into
gloomy ways of thinking. can give
nothing but encouragement to others.
They are ready to condemn all things
on this ground or on that But for
tunately there is another class of men
who have a disposition entirely op-
posed to the first They are ready
to see good in everything that is worth
while, and to give their encourage
ment to noble efforts. If people could
only realize what benefit it would
be to themselves as well as to others,
if they felt it their duty to applaud
"iiu SAoooio u.s. III" iiiuNh pSIlSl IHc
world would be! Many poor man
has gone down in defeat and despair
because of the need of encouragement
at the critical moment
Whether it be in the study-room
on the football field or in business,
let each individual be sure he appre-
ciates whatever good and noble thing
is being done, and lend his encourage
ment.

in other words, to see that the player
