LAST YEARS SONGS ARE LOST
Contestants for $50 Prize Will Be Al
lowed to Rewrite Them.

The compositions submitted two
years ago to the committee which is
to award $50 prize for the best Mis-
souri, song have been lost. If those
who sent them in desire that they be
considered on an equal basis with
those who submit songs this year, it
will be necessary for them to write
their contributions again.
A prize of $50 will be given for the
best university song submitted to the
committee not later than II o'clock
December u, 1909. All songs must be
signed with fictitious name, accom-
panied by sealed envelope contain
ing the writer's real name.
The contest is open to anyone. The
tune, as well as the words, will be con-
sidered. 1t may be either grave or
gay, old or new. However, it must
not be one that has been adopted by
any other university or college. AS
examples, the committee suggests such
tunes as the Russian and Austrian ma
. tional anthems and Jonson's Drink
to Ne Only With Thine Eyes"
The committee reserves the right
OF not awarding the prize if nothing
creditable is submitted, and of not
dividing it among two or more COM
petitors. All songs received will be-
come the property of the university.

THE FOOL QUESTION AGAIN.
Example Of Anti-CIimax Brought Back
By Men Who Met.

The squad OF reporters. war cor
respondents, special commissioners,
confidential representatives, artists,
camera men and photographers that
went to Sydney, y. s., to meet Peary
are back on Park Row. They all have
tales to tell, but one of them brought
back with him the grandest example
of anti-climaX ever perpetrated. He
had fought his way over rolling seas
and through fog and amid icebergs
to get to Peary, the finder of the pole.
He could hardly breathe freely, SO
tremendous was his awe for the man
that had accomplished the feat that
had stumped the world for centuries.
Tears used to come to his eyes as he
stood at the vessels rail, and gaZed
off over the shrOuded sea, thinking of
the courage and resource and physical
able to do this thing. The vessel tied
up at the wharf at Sydney, and that
correspondent stepped on solid land
feeling that he had entered a shrine.
And one of the great, rugged men OF
Sydney, who had been watching the
Peary boat come in, stopped him as
he started for the telegraph office.
You're one of the New York news
paper men aren't you?" asked the
Sydney man.
The correspondent, still wrapped in
that glowing mental haze, his thoughts
still turned upon those month-lOng
tramps over granite ice, facing furious
wind, battling with the elements I'M
chained, nodded vaguely. He hardly
knew what his interlocuter was say.
ing.
I'm glad | met you," said the Sgd
ney man. Say! What do you think
of the Thaw case?"-From a New
York Letter.
