LARGEST CIRCULATION
IN BOONE COUNTY.
HARMONY THE BEST POLICY

Indications point to an enrolment
at the University of Missouri of more
than 5000 students during the school
year. There will be at least consid-
cradle increase beyond the enroll
ment of last year. The enrolment of
last year showed an increase of only
4S beyond the enrolment of the year
previous.
Among the causes which contributed
to making last years increase thus
small and which is absent this year
was the unjust local criticism which
brought about legislative opposition
and temporary distrust. This occurred
at a time when it affected the public
mind and hence the student enroll
ment. No such condition, fortunately
for the State University and for Col
umbia, exists this year. The prog
ress of the University, in all its divis
ions, has been marked during the year
under the skillful leadership of Pres
ident Hill. There is peace and good
feeling everywhere. Everybody is
willing to boost Columbia and the Uni
versity, the greatest institution in Col
umbia. The result will be seen in a
record-breaking attendance at the Uni
versity.
If for no better reason, harmony is
the best policy.

Missed Them Well,

There are always two ways of tell.
ing the truth. The man who told the
King that he would outlive all his
subjects was a true courtier, and un.
derstood human nature far more than
the man who was put to death for
declaring to the same monarch that
all his subjects would die before him.

odds and Ends" also had the gift
of presenting the pleasantest side of
a fact
certain noble lord was a very bad
shot. One day, after a particularly
discouraging exhibition of bungling, he
said to the keeper:
Now, my man, tell me the truth.
Did you ever see any one who shot
as badly as l do?"
ooh, yes, my lord" returned the
keeper. I've seen worse shots than
your lordship. Your lordship misses
the birds SO clean."-Youth's Com

you to get the best quality you can

PARIS NO LONGER SUPREME
American Tailors Have Ceased to Rely
On French for New Fashion Models.

American Tailors Have Ceased to RaIy
On French for New Fashion Models.
Ten years ago. said MI. Cream,
president of the National Ladies' Tail.
ors' Association, the best things in
the way of clothing did come from
Paris. We all went over every season
and bought models, and some of us i'm
ported the greater part of our stock.
But l am telling you nothing but
the truth when say that nothing has
come from Paris in the past FIVE years
but freaks. The sheath skirt was an
example. The present day hobble
skirt is another. We never really
accepted either model, because neither
was worth accepting. A few were
made up for people who have a taste
less love of novelty, but that was all.
In the past Paris gave us ideals
OF taste and refinemert-at least, they
seemed to us then. That was be-
cause we had not yet got to the point
OF cultivating our own ideas. Ten
years ago and many, many years be-
fore that, America was simply devoted
to making money. But a wonderful
change has taken place in the last de-
cade. We all spend money to great
er extent than any other nation on the
face of the earth. And the demand
has called forth the supply. The de-
side for suitable, beautiful clothing
has inspired the native designers and
|tailors and dressmakers to construct
the most perfect garments to be found
anywhere"
But Mr.. Cream agrees with John
kendrick Bangs in thinking that we
Americans are too modest. that we
don't realize our own ability. At
least. we didn't till the National La
dies Tailors' Association was formed.
Mr.. Cream shifted the sniff of the
scornful as he recounted the futile
and vain humility of his trade prior to
tnat glorious daWning.
We couldn't trust Ourselves he
declaimed. I'VE used our own ideas
for our designs, but we were afraid
to announce the fact So do you know
what we did? We sneaked over to
Third Avenue or Sixth Avenue, which
ever was nearest, and bought Paris
labels by the yard. l can give you
the names of a dozen shops that sell
them. You can pick any name you
choose, of Paris, and buy as many
yards of it as you like. Cheap, too!
That is how We used to sell our goods
as imported to the ladies who came to
New York Evening World.

FOR THE OTHER FELLOW

Voting s125 600 for the water-light
plant means more than the improve
ments of the present plant. 1t means
better machinery and better service,
of course. But voting s125,OOO for
the city's plant means adding water
mains where there are now no water
mains and city lights where there is
now darkness. II viii give the other
fellow electric light and city water.
The down town district is fairly
well Lighted when the machinery
works. 1t is supplied with good water
in sufficient quantities. More light
cannot be added with the present mea-
gre equipment. The water supply
cannot be increased except the plant
be enlarged and additional wells be
bored. To provide the money for this
increase and enlargement the bond is
sue to be voted upon September 9th
IS necessary. Among other good re-
suits 1t will give a square deal to the
outlying districts of Columbia. The
taxpayers, who have not had the ben
efits of water and light at their homes
will have these benefits by the en-
larged possibilities of the city plant.
The down town district should sup
port the bond issue unanimously. Let's
give the other fellow a square deal.

RIGHT AGE FOR AN OLD FoGY

How old must a man be to be an
old fogy?
This question suggests itself when
the problems of conservatism and
progress are considered.
Probably old fogyism has all ages for
its own. Some men are born old fo.
gies. Others become old fogies at
the age of Is years. Yet others never
drop into old fogyism though they
live to be three score and ten.
A certain leaven of old fogyism is
doubtless good for a community. It
serves as kind of ballast to steady
progress. Too much old fogyism
kills.
Columbia is fortunate in possessing
just the right number of old fogies.
They are of various ages and previous
conditions of progressiveness. Some

BRANDY so YEARS OLD.
Spirits Hid From Yankees During War
Recently Discovered in Virginia.


FHty-year-old brandy, think of it!
Yet that is what they have been sam.
pling up in Houston, Va.
Let New York millionaires and New.
port swells imbibe the costly vintage
OF France; they cannot buy such
brandy as that. Here is the account
OF the finding of this rare treasure: !
In 1860 Major Hendricks, who re.
sided i'll the neighborhood of Hunting
Greek, as was a custom in those good
olu days, made a lot of apple brandy,
several gallons of which were put
away for future use. In 1865 the yes.
sci containing this brandy was hid
away to keep it from being taken by
the Yankee soldiers who passed
through this country at this time. In
the meantime, Major Hendricks died
and, the brandy being so securely
hid, it was forgotten, and remained
in its place of hiding until a short
while ago. Last Saturday a small bot
tie OF this liquor was presented to the
Confederate veterans of Hunting
Creek, and was exhibited by Capt.
Dick Edwards, and all of the old boys
were allowed to smell and smack
their lips. The connoisseurs said it
was the finest they ever had the pleas
ure OF smelling.

believe the town would be better off
without electricity or gas or municipal
ownership. Some believe that paved
streets are a poor investment. Some
do not favor the building of inter-ur.

and others are entirely so. Columbia

that they are not here in larger mum,

LAVISH BLESSINGS OF THIS THANKSGIVING.

IL is matter of history that the Pilgrim fathers expressed thanks for few grains of corn. It was on u.are than one occasion. all they had to eat They faced hard ships and persecution, the like of which, We greatly fear, would simply crush the present generation. Not that the present generation lacks courage, but it is not prepared or trained for privation. Among the descendants of the Pilgrims such cruel hardship has become a strans- CT, Yet in the midst of their sor- TOW, the good Elder Brewster thus addressed the Pilgrims, at the end of meal which consisted of five grains of corn to each person:
 Blessed will it be for us, blessed for this Hand. for this yasr contin. ent. Nay, from generation to gen eration will the blessing descend. Generations to come will look back to this hour and these scenes oi agonizing trial. to this day of small things and say, Here was our be ginning as a people. These were our fathers. Through their trials we inherit our blessings. Their faith is our faith: their hope our Lope; their God our Cod"
 Elder Brewster possessed a pco- phetic mind. The blessings of this country have grown each year. Even the poorest among us will enjoy banquet. compared with the tivo grains of corn: none will shiver with cold, none find it so hard To obtain warm clothing, or to find that degree of leisure which pro- notes good health, good spirits and contentment with the toll of each day.
 Our blessings are so lavish that danger of growing careless should be guarded against.
