to direct its growth. As more indus.
tries come to Columbia, as its popula.
ton and size increase, the need of
more systematic construction as well
tas the cost of making the necessary
changes will become apparent. Why
not now, while Columbia is still young,
begin to mould it's growth after a
certain plan? The International Town
Planning Exhibition, being held in
London this month, shows how neces-
sary the replanning of towns becomes.
Among the exhibits, there will be
shown a recently approved plan by
which Paris is to be made still more
magnificent and convenient and
healthy at the cost Of s300,000,0 900.
Chicago and Berlin will also show
plans for their reconstruction.
The earlier the replanning of town
is begun, the easier and cheaper it is.
Now, while Columbia's size, popula-
ton, and industries are increasing,
it's growth should be directed in such
a way as to make it more healthy,
more convenient, and more beautiful.
Columbia has long been noted as a
school town, and it may some day
become an industrial center. One
factory is already located here and
there is the probability of another be-
ing erected soon. The consequent
growth makes the immediate and def
mite planning of the town necessary
if later and more expensive one is
to be avoided. Along with the other
plans for improving Columbia, the
one for a better method of construc-
ton should claim the attention of the
Commercial club and citizens of Col
umbia.

NINTH STREET CROSSING

To the Editor Of the University Missourian:
The city of Columbia should not al
low the condition of University av-
enue, at the east entrance to the Uni
versity campus, to remain as it is. 1t
should not have been allowed to exist
at all, but the matter ought to be rem
edied at once. The intersection of
University avenue and Ninth street is
barely passable, especially at night, for
vehicles, and the irregular stepping
stones and the series of mud holes
make it inconvenient for pedestrians.
1t is an unsightly entrance to the cam
pus and menace to passers. T.

1t should be a matter of pride to
the students of the University of Mis-.
souri, that the State Fair grounds at
Sedalia are being patrolled by COM
pany detailed from the University ca.
Diet corps. These men speak for the
University not only on University Day,
but on every day of Fair Week. Hun.
dreds of persons will ask about them.
Missourians will see these men doing
a practical work for Missouri.

YET MORE TO DO

Things about town seem to be NOV
ing. 1t is being noised about owe
Missouri, that Columbia is dom,
things. The town has made a fin,
record in the last few years, and old
timers when they come back, have t,
be told where they are when they gt
down Broadway.
It is much to the credit of Colum
bians that they have built in the las
few years so many miles of new streets
and have put sign boards up so people
know when they come to Cherry
street. There wasn't a great deal OF
noise about the bond issue and a lot
OF folks thought it wouldn't pass, but
1t did. The newspapers were back of
1t and people did a lot of thinking
and, without saying much, voted for
better lights and more water.
The greatest addition to the town
in recent years is the Columbia spirit.
No one seems to know Just when it
came and who brought it, but it is
here. 1t is the greatest asset of a
city. In fact, it is the city. Electric
light systems, big buildings and good
streets don't make a town. 1t takes
spirit.
But Columbia isn't made yet. There
are still few things to do. Column
bia is not yet the metropolis of Cen
trail Missouri. Gas sells in Columbia
for two dollars a thousand. This is
mismanagement or a hold-up. Streets
are made but they are dirty. The
town will burn up some night when
every person is asleep if fire pro-
lection isn't improved.
Columbia needs lot of things. The
Columbia spirit must grow and do
greater things in the future.

She HobbIed.

with apologies to the public.)
She hobbled out upon the porch;
She hobbled through the gate;
She hobbled up a shady street;
She hobbled at hobble rate.
She hobbled around the corner;
She hobbled to the races;
She hobbled among the people;
She hobbled in many places.
But she hobbled on beyond the line
She hobbled in the way
And, sad to say, this hobbling girl
Is hobbling not today.

PLANNING THE TOWN

A growing town is like young tree
To insure the best results the growth
OF each must be directed, and the trou-
BILE and expense thus incurred depends
largely On how early this management
Is begun.
Columbia is a young and growing
town. As yet nothing has been done
