London, March 23--Sport loving
London is depopulated of its rowing
enthusiasts today and an nnprecedent
ed crowd is lined up along the Thames
this morning, eagerly awaiting the con
test Of strength skill and endurance
between the wet bods' of Cambridge
and Oxford The course, as usual, is
from Putney TO Mortlake. Oxford
adhcrents believe that institution will
repeat its victory of last year, when
the dark blue oarsmen won for the
first time since 1908. Cambridge men
are quite rs hopeful of the chances of
the light blue crew, and 10 the out
slider the Indications are all for close
and exciting contest. Today's regatta
is the sixty seventh dual rowing meet
between OXFORD and Cambridge OF the
past events, Oxford has won thirty
five and Cambridge thirty, while one,
IN 1874, was mead heat.
Distance o. the Course.
The distance of TIE course is lit
tie short of four miles. The best rec
ord was made in 1898, by Oxford, lime
eighteen minutes and forty seven see
onds. In 1900 the Cambridge crew ex-
at Ia,
airy in that respect is even. While
both universities have good crews in
today's race, il is hardly expected that
the record will be equaled. The time
OF OXford's winning crew last year was
10 minutes and 80 seconds. OF the last
twelve reGattas, Cambridge has won
eight. tending TO prove that the light
blue oarsmen are tending of late years
TO superiority over their ancient rivals.
Only Two Of Last Years Crew
Besides Il. c. Bourne, the crack
stroke, only two of last years victori-
ous Oxford men are in today's boat,
while Cambridge has suffered Il great
loss in the absence of the famous
the light blue shell TO victory three
times in the annual contest piror TO
It's defeat last year Owing to the
fact that today falls in Holy Week
the crews are under the displeasure
% the clergy whose parishes are situat
ed near the course over which the boat
race will be rowed. These gentlemen,
who include the Wears of Fulham, Put
ney, Iiammersmith, Grove Park, CHS
wick and Mortlake, sent the university
they appealed to the latter to substi
tute some other date for the Wednes-
day in Holy Week, ON the ground that,
as arranged, it would cause very lit
tie distress to many earnest people
in their respective paris res.
Reply TO the Memorial.
TO this memorial the university
presidents replied that they found it
impossible to acceGe to the request
The date, they said. was fixed only
after very carful consideration and con
sultation with senior members OF the
university, both az Oxford and Cam
bridge. he usual date the Saturday
before PLAN Sunday, March 10, was
impracticable, owing to tides both in
the morning and evening OF that day
occurring at absolutely prohibitive
hours. To have taken 4 day sufficient
ly early to obivate this difficulty would
have obliged the crews. in order 10
secure sufficient time on the London
waters to sacrifice the keeping of the
term, II very serious matter.

AS result of their junket to Column

said that the proposed constitutional

Great as the university is," said
Judge w. T. Bland, "it hasn't anything
like the adequate equipment it needs.
The school needs more dormitory room
for the girls, a library and many i'm
provements on the state farm.
THE farm alone would be jlstifica-
ton for all the expense. If the people
only knew >what great work is being
done there, they would rally to the

the hog cholera virus there will save
immense sums annually to the farmers
of Missouri. Yet because of niggard-
ly appropriation, the work of getting
these things into the hands OF the
farmers is much handicapped" Kan

Getting the Moss Off.

We were recently called to Inde-
pendence on business and while there
made it a point to see what was being
done in the way of building and public
improvements, and to say that we
were agreeably surprised is putting it
mildly.
In various parts of the city many
elegant and up-to-date residences are
in course Of construction, streets are,
being paved in all directions and there
is everywhere manifested spirit of
liberality and enterprise.
From independence we went to Col
umbia, heretofore known as sleepy,
non-progressive, out-of-date Columbia.
What a, change here We We're there
3k years ago and can speak whereof
we know. *
An elegant new court house has
been built. Newly constructed and
neatly repaired business houses are
to be seen on many streets and in
all parts of the town and more are
in course of construction. More fine
residences are being erected there
now than in any previous year period
in the history of the town. The Wa
bash is just completing an elegant
stone depot. A 100000 hotel is under
construction; streets have been and
and are being graded and paved in all
portions of the city.
What is true of independence and
Columbia is also true of Centralia,
Webb City, Joplin, Springfield, West
Plains and-Belton. All but-What
are we going to do? Sleep the eternal
sleep of the dead and the doomed, or
are we to get into the push ?-Belton

Help for the University.

The visit of the Commercial Club
members to Columbia and their in
specting of the University OF Mis-
souri, naturally enlisted the enthusias
tic support of every one of those Wis
itors for every proposal for the ad-
vancement Of that institution. Pres
ident Bland of the Commercial Club
was authorized to pledge the help of
the whole body fol. the proposed mill
tax and for other needs of the insti-
tuition. And this pledge means that
the most powerful organization in the
city will become an active ally of the
university.
There is nothing like personal con-
tact, personal investigation, in the
promotion of good cause. The peo-
pie of Missouri are not Indifferent to
their highest. educational institution,
but they are less familiar with it's ac-
complishments, its needs and it's pos
sibilities than they should be. If this

kind of a university it needs and is
abundantly able to have-as good as
any in the United States.
The active cooperation of such Or
ganizations as the Commercial Club
will go far toward interesting the
general public. This interest must be
extended, not alone with reference to
the proposed mill tax, but to all the
expansion needs of the institution.
With the. larger fund that the pro-
posed tax would provide, greater pub
licity could be given to the work of
the institution, more especially
through the instructive demonstrations
of the agricultural college, which is a
part of the university. This depart
ment alone, through its scientific ex-
periments and demonstrations, is of
more value to the state, many times
over, than the cost of the whole uni
versity.-Kansas City Star.

a day passes but we must bid farewell
to some friend, some ambition, some
desire, some hope. We Ibid farewell

OF happy daysA 81
So. the seniors of University of
Missouri will soon bid farewell to
scenes, to friendships, to classrooms,
TO teachers, to the inspiration and
spirit of old Missouri. They will all
carry away the influence and the mem.
cries that will grow DINNER as the
years go ty. Other students also will
hid farewell to friends and to the
school. 1t is to all sort of sweet,
sad time-looked forward to with
longing but now that it is here they
all find it tinged with the sad strain
that fingers over the word farewell.
1t may be sentiment after all, but
it is the sentiment that is in the
heart that works in unselfishness and
love and it is the creation of. this
sentiment that justifies the existence
of this university.

Bridal Party Entertained.

Those who love royal good time were not disappointed last night when about 25 congenial friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Nat Martin, where Miss Lewis and Hugh Mcdaniel, who are to be marriec in March, were the guests of honor.
 After a series of games the us ual order of things was reversed when the prospective Benedict (who being at home ilD, the hos tess presented to Miss Lewis, for him, three huge punches of American Beauty roses.
 The immense red roses were made of paper, while in the heart of each was cunningly concealed various gifts from the guests. The first bunch held handker- chiefs and as the hostess pre- sented it with a bow, she repeat ed the following rhyme of her own composition:
 A square of linen, soft and white, You may need for rubbing your nose,
 If you can't find one anywhere else Just look in the heart of rose.
 The next bunch contained socks and was also accompanied by an appropriate rhyme:
 Should you be in a great big hurry to dress,
 And your sox are all out at the toes, Don't go and abuse your little wife,
 Just look in the heart of rose. When the laughter had subsid- ed the third bunch was handed to Miss Lewis with the following: And sometimes when your tie is all in
 wad,
 And you think there's no end to vour
 woes,
 Be calm, you'll find new ties galore
 If you look in the heart of rose.
 As the American Beauty rose shower was for the prospective groom, Miss Lewis was present. ed with a large bunch of red car nations and ferns tied with a beautiful bow of red ribbon.
 The guests were then served with light refreshment as a fit- ting close to an evening of pleas ure long to be remembered.
