UNIVERSITY 4 PUBLIC SCHOOL

4 state university is intended pri-
marily to be college for everybody, a
democratic institution. The poor
mans son and the heir to millions
should be on equal footing. The state
university holds the same place in the
state that the public school holds in
the city and town. Such an instit,i-
ton is the University of Missouri
Its aim is to give the man of limited
means just as good an education as
the wealthy youth. On account OF the
inadequate funds supplied by the state
however, the University is gradually
drifting away from that standard.
Each year the University has
larger enrolment. This calls for more
To make these i'm
pTovementS it is necessary to increase
the entrance fee, because the amount
supplied by the state is not enough.
If the eleventh amendment should fail
and these conditions continue, the
entrance fee must be increased each
year. Therefore it is easy to see that
it will not be many years until the
University of Missouri, although 4
state institution. will be no longer a
public college, because its entrance fee
will be so high as to make it a pay
school. and the poor mans son will
lave to go elsewhere to get his edu-
'ation.

LARGEST CIRCULATION
IN BOONE COUNTY.

The University has been called Co
lumbia's greatest industry Ever
resident of Boone county who votes
against the Eleventh Amendment
votes against his own material inter
ests. Boone county has means of
educating its sons and daughters 81
home. Every one should vote for tn .
improvement of the county's educa-
tional system.
Business in Columbia depends
largely on the students. A greatar
University means more students and
more students mean more profit to the
residents of Columbia and Boone
county.

from the merchants standpoint.
If it becomes a permanent feature,
an epoch in advertising has been
marked by this "ad" which contained
an Amendment No. II editorial. That
it will become permanent is entirely
probable. And that the epoch should
be marked by an incident which SO
vitality concerns the University of
Missouri is gratifying to Missouriars
and especially to those closely asso,
ciated with the institution. 1t is a
tribute to the advertising ingenuity
and "liveness" of Kansas City.

THE VALUE OF FIXED PURPOSE

II Is no longer necessary to tell the
students OF the University of Missouri
how they can help the Eleventh
amendment. Every student should
know by this time what plans have
been outlined for the success of the
Amendment. The thing to do noW,
with the election so near, is to tell
the students again and again that
they must work for the amendment
with the same unconquerable spirit
that defeated the Kansas football team
last Thanksgiving. If every student
sets to work with the idea that the
amendment must pass, and goes after
his friends at home with the same
:pirit and makes them feel the same
way, nothing can keep it from pass
ing. With only few more days left
IN which to work, concentration of this
spirit upon the one idea and purpose
is the thing that is going to win for
US on election day. Concentration
Of spirit won for us last year in foot
ball. It will win still more impor-
tant campaign this year.

various uses. nus man VINO has
three thousand dollars worth of prop
eTty. which at the present time would
be assessed as one thousand dollars
would pay thirty cents year to the
University. If this amendment is
adopted, the University will not re-
ceiye any more money from the state
nor will the taxpayers be compelled
to pay higher tax than they have
in the past. This amendment Will
provide an income of four hundred and
sixty-five thousand dollars per year Oh
the present assessed valuation of Dro3-
erty This is practically the same
amount that is now appropriated an
nually by the Legislature. Thus it NAV
be seen that the passage of the amend
ment will not increase the amount CT
money at the disposal of the board Of
but the University authori-
ties will be able to accomplish more
with this limited supply of money, and
its support will gradually increase
with the increase of wealth in the
state.
If the amendment carries. the col
lateral Inheritance tax would either be
abolished. or its proceeds may be used
or other purposes to maintain rural
schools, high schools, good roads or

AN "AD" THAT is DIFFERENT

new departure in advertising was
created last Tuesday by Emery. Bird,
Thayer and company, of Kansas City.
when that concern ran a half column
editorial within its paid space urging
persons to vote Yes" on Amendment
No. II. 1t was within the border
surrounding their "ad" and was given
the same prominent display and in the
same size type as was the announce
ment of the goods which the store has
for sale.
Mercantile enterprises have long
been substantial contributors to move
ments for civic good, educational as
well as social. But this is doubtless
the first time this particular method
has been used. In former years, how.
ever, their aid to community better
ment has not been so generally known.
This newer means of contributing will
enable the public to know who is help
ing to bring about these better cond;
tons. 1t will enable the buyer to know
more of the character of the men from
whom he is purchasing. 1t is most
commendable innovation.
The newspaper man has long real
lied the value of advertising as good
reading matter. And if the lead of
the Kansas City store is followed by
other establishments over the coun-
try, the value of Advertising as good
reading matter must necessarily in
crease. And jus So much as the mat
ter increases in value from the edi-
tors standpoint. so will it increase

Made Address To High School.

DR.. Marquis of Coe college made an
interesting address to the Audubon
High School Monday morning. In the
course of his remarks he told little
story saying that once on time gen
tleman who was addressing an audience
upon our public schools said that he
wanted his boys to learn something of
utility, something they could make use
of when they became men and cited the
milking OF COW as an example. A
lean old farmer arose in the back part
of the room and remarked that what
the gentlemen said was all right as far
as it went, but he wanted his bows to
learn something besides in the perform
ance of which they couldn't be beaten
by a calf.

Important Cases Decided.

Attorney III. M. Boorman, of Atlantic,
returned home Saturday pretty we'll
satisfied with the weeks work in Audi
bon, where he had tried and won two
important cases in the district court.
One of the cases was the suit for divorce
brought by Mrs. John R. Heiken
against her husband i'm whichshe asked
for legal separation on the grounds of
cruelty, drunkenness and other statutory
offenses. She was granted divorce,
alimony of S35, 600 and attorneys fees of
$1,000 The other was the case of Hen
sley IL Santee VS.. the Rock Island: in
which the plaintiffs asked damages Of
the defendant company in the sum az
$3.50 for delaying the cars in which
they wished to make q shipment Of
sheep to Chicago, the jury after being
out two hours brought in verdict for
the plaintiffs for $1046 and costs.
This case proved to be unusually in
teresting from the standpoint of ship
pers and stockmen. Ii seems that the
suit came about by reason of the rail
way company's failing to furnish cars
for the shipment of flock of 1000 sheep
from Extra to Chicago in the early part
of January, 1910. the plaintiffs Claiming
that they had an agreement with the
company whereby the company was TO
have cars there on q certain day and
that upon the failure of the company To
do so, that they were out of feed and
the cold weather caused an excessive
shrink, hence the suit for damages.
The company denied the making of the
agreement and excused their failure to
furnish the cars by reason of the snow
blockade and billiards. which existed
over the middle west at that time.
Quite number of prominent stock men
among whom were A. f. Anderson,
of Brayton viii and Chas. Kommes,
Will Doffng, Ed Dryden, of Extra; and
John Twist, j. H. Maharg, EarhMa-
harg, and j. w. Mcclure, of Audubon,
were called to testify The case will
probably be appealed to the higher
courts. Attorney johnson of Des
Moines and J. A. Nash appeared for the
company and III. NJ Boorman of At
lantic and Mantz & White represented
Hensely & Santee.
