FOR THE GLORY OF M. S. u

Wills P. King, in Kansas City Post.
No worthier movement was eve,

petition for the mill tax for the suppor,
OF the state university.
1t doesn't mean that the institution
Will cost the people dollar more
than it will otherwise, for it won't
1t does mean that its support will be
placed on a firm foundation and that
men of talent and genius will not
hesitate to accept places in its corps
OF teachers for fear that these same
places may be wiped out next wear
Tor the lack of sufficient appropria-
ton.
The tax will not be sufficient TO
pay expenses. but the request made
of each legislature will he so small
that no appropriations for other pur-
poses will have to be curtailed in
order to meet it. There is nothing
IN the plan about which anyone can
howl extravaganza
Back in the eighties we students
used to think that Old man Kneislev
got the appropriation for the school
and my memory still is that he never
denied it. kneisley was the rcpresen.

by whatever majority the exigencies
OF the OCCASION required.
Every two years the good people
OF Boone used to send him off TO

Chicago's board of health has is
sued a set of rules for summer guild
ance. One would hardly place Chicago
in list of cities offering
attractions as summer resort
yet the rules issued by the board
of health will go long way toward
establishing such a reputation for the
Windy City" at least among those
who are compelled to remain in the
city. Here are a few hot shots" from
these rules, which are just as applic-
able in Columbia as in Chicago. "To
feel hot-talk hot" Don't dress
the baby any warmer than you would
dress YOURSELF This is an especially
good one. God gives us vegetables
and fruits in the summer time for sum-
mer food-'get WISE"

the tumult and the shouting, announce
that he had succeeded in wringing
more than the previous biennial ap-
preparation.
1t was lorg afterwards that learned
Kneisley did not do it all. A part
of the credit. at least. was due to the
hard and efficient work OF the curators
such men as our own Gardiner, Lath-
rop and J. V. G. Karnes-really re-
spectacle citizens. but looked upon by
some OF the legislature as members
OF an oathbound tong OF hatchet-men
and highbinders.
The best Judges OF the merits OF IA

and by the same token, when the needs
of the university are under consider
alton the opinions of Missouri's thou
sands o1 men and women who We're

There is not one of these but heart

Now comes Il company formed in the
big city TO wash the family dishes.
Come TO think OF it, it ought to be a
success. Time was when the plan of
sending the family laundry away from
home was q novelty. But we have ad-
vanced, and to have someone como
for the solid dishes after every meal
would certainly do away with a good
deal of the drudgery of the average
home, and serve in a measure to solve
the servant problem.

More and more is the university
coming to be factor in the practical
affairs of life. A writer in a Chicago
paper. 'deprecating the propensities
for extravaganza in the American peo-
pie, believes that the remedy lies
largely with the public school and the
university. What is needed" he says,
is general and active propaganda of
real thrift and general simplicity in liv-
ing. This propaganda should begin in
the public school and continue in the
university and technical Schools" ="

LARGEST CIRCULATION
IN BOONE COUNTY.
IT'S YOUR MEETING

Columbia is TO have Il public meeting
tonight in which every citizen shouh
manifest an active interest. Every
one knows that the city has shown a
marked growth in population within
the last few years. Today piles of
lumber and other building material
may be found on every street in the
city-the best evidence in the world
OF progress With all this growth the
water and lighting facilities have re
manned as they were ten years ago.
and are totally inadequate to the city's
needs today. 1t will not help matters
any for citizens to stand on the street
corners and discuss the situation in a
random way, nor to kick" at home
when the inadequacy of the service is
forced upon them. The meeting to-
night is "get-together" effort. Your
opinion there will count for something.
For on the sentiment developed at
this meeting the council will determine
whether or not Columbia is interested
sufficiently to go to the expense of call
ing an election to vote on the question
OF bonding the city for Il water and
light service adequate to the city's
needs and growth.
1t is your meeting.

Rules for the Fourth,

The chief of police and city physi
clan OF DGs Moines, Iowa. have pre-
pared a set of commandments gov
erning the celebration of the Fourth
in that city by the boys ana girls. anG
they have also some advice for nar
ents that might be followed with good
results after the casualties happen
Here are the ten commandments:
Flrst-Dcn't shoot noise-makers un
til the Fourth.
Second-DOn't try to fire an eyplo
slve machine until somebody who un
derstands it shows you how to do if
safely.
Third-Parents should not kick
about firecrackers, but should side
with the kids and pay some attention
to what they are doing, taking care
that they conform to law and safety.
f'ourth-Don't try to frighten any.
body by firing explosives close to
them. 1t is not funny if you accident
ally nurt them.
flith-Don't try to be smart bv
holding tirecrackers in your hands
while they explode. Hundreds of peo-
pie have lost arms, eyes and some of
them their lives in this way.
SlXth-When you or one of yours
gets hurt, don't let some old fogy tell
You he never was bothered with doc-
tor when he was kid, but call your
family physician at once. MANY
deaths occur from the most trivial in
luries from firecrackers, etc.
Seventh-Don't be too stingy to
nave your family doctor use a little
ahti-tetanlc serum. 1t is very expen-
siVe, but will prevent lockjaw if pron.
erly used in most cases. The time to
use it is when the wound is dressed.
not after lockjaw has appeared.
Elghth-Don't tie firecrackers and
things to dogs and cats. 1t is no finn
LOT them, and it is a poor way to cele-
brate the liberty we all eniov Ro-
SIDES, they might run under a house
and set it on fire.
Nlnth-Don't be too grouchy with
the Kids. Buy them a few sensible
crackers and grow young yourself bv
helping them celebrate.
Tenth-Get a flag and nail it over
your door. Tell the kids patriotic
stories and explain to them what the
celebration is all about.
NO matter how much talk there is
'f Sane Fourth" the boys and girls

of Journalism of the University OF Mis-.

task of writing ahistory of the Missouri

tant mission, and one that must prove

maps they are, yet they have each two
to four years OF university and special
training back of them, calculated to
