ABOUT THAT
nth AMENDMENT
Some Reasons Why the Mill Tax
for the University Should
Carry

University M1ssourlan and gives
some very good reasons why
Amendment No. II should be pas
sed at the election in November.
Champ Clark, jr., was little
late in entering up" this semester
at the University of Missouri.
When making out his schedule of
studies he learned that the Eng
lish department had added course
in public speaking under DR.. lis
dell, former president of Wyo-1
ming University.
Mr.. Clark has already won hon.
or on the political stump, and he,
decided promptly if he became a.
member of but one class, it must
be that on public speaking.
He called at the English depart
ment to enroll. DR.. Tisdell was
very sorry, but the class was full
Mr.. Clark pleaded with him, urg-
ing his great need for the training.
But DR.. Tisdell was obdurate. To
admit another member of the class
would rob those already enrolled of.
attention that wasrightfully theirs.
I The next day Mr.. Clark was
back again to plead, and many
times he called, but he is not yet
on the class roll.
Mr.. Clark said:
Recently young lady entered
the University from my home
town Owing to sickness she was
a week late. She found, to her
disappointment, that almost all
of the freshmen courses were filled
to overlooking. She was not able
to get into the classes in freshmen
English, Astronomy or French,
which was the courses she most
wanted.
Last year large number of
students were anxious to take
Spanish the second semester, but
the authorities were unable to pro-
vide an instructor for the course.
"These cases arc simply random
examples of the general condition
namely, that the University is at
present greatly hampered by lack
of means.
"A point which the voters of
Missouri should remember, is that
if the mill tax is adopted the Uni
versity is willing to give up the in
heritence tax. This tax has done
more than anything else in the
state to make the University I'm
popular. Few people stop to con-
slider that this tax was simply as
signed the University by the legis-
lature, and that the authorities
would much prefer some other
means of raising the necessary
revenue.
"All citizens who are in favor of
a strong modern educational sys-
tenn in this state, should vote for
Amendment No. II.
"If the people of Missouri really
understood the situation here at
the University, | am confident
that Amendment No. II would
pass by a practically unanimous
vote. The trouble is that the sit
uation is not understood by
great many Only day or two
ago l was asked by one of my best
friends in my home town, most
intelligent man, what we did with
all the money over here. | was
much surprised =, at this question.
People do not seem to realize that
it takes rather large sum of mon
ey to provide for the education of

must come through the teacher. It re- quiras no medical expert to detect the most common symptoms of contagious dis ases, tc inspect for non-contagious defects of eye, ear, nose and throat, to teach some simple rules for proven tion cf preventable diseases, and to acquaint the pupils wlCn the most gen. eral laws of sanitation.
 As an equipment for this work, l would recommend a little leafet, pub lished by the Massachusetts Board of Health; the Sanitary Primer, publish ed by the World Book Company: Gull ick Readersffi Shelters Eye Chart; a few lessons in detecting enlarged ton sils and adenoids.
 If this conservation of life is na- tional and state obligation, it is also a private obligation, which can be best discharged through the cooperation of parents and teachers. The teachers must do medical inspection, l have an abounding confidence in them. They will meet this new demand, and perform well their part in this great work of conservation of human eff cieney and life.

COMFORTING WORDS.
MANY A CONWAY HOUSEHOLD
 WILL FIND THEM so.

To have the pains and aches of a bad back removed; to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kid ney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove comforting words to hun dreds of Conway readers.
 Mrs. Joseph Cross, Church street, Morrilton, Ark, says: T am sure that nc one has ever endured more misery from kidney complaint than l. My back was so weak and painful that for weeks 1 could not straighten. I often had dizzy spells and at such times had to catch hold of something to keep from falling. My feet and ankles sometimes swelled to aearly twice their natural size, and I was also bothered by a frequent desire to pass the kidney secretions. l was treated by six physicians, but none of them seemed to understand my case I felt myself sinking lower and lower every day and became alarmed. had about given up hope of ever be- ing cured when a friend advised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills. l did so and the results of their use were far beyond my expectations. My health improved rapidly and today I have no symptom of kidney complaint what ever"

MEDICAL INSPECTION
 OF SCHOOL CHILDREN
By R. c. Hall, Supt. Schools, Little
 Rock. (Comn1ittee of School Patrons.)

"A country's greatest asset IS It's men" is more true than the conserva- tion of this asset by the national and state government would indicate. The natural resources of this country are being guarded and preserved by the department of agriculture. Besides such as water, forest and mineral, it nstructs the farmers how to prevent and cure disease in crops, orchards and animals, and how to increase the productions of the soil. But the gov ernment sits supinely by, knowing the many ills that human flesh is heir to, and their cure and prevention, yet ln- different to it's great responsibility, the conservation of human life.
 If the government, through its agrl- cultural department, conserves plant and animal life, by bullentin, and act ua! demonstration, and adds millions of dollars to the yearly output Of the farm, why could not some department, the department of education. for ln- stance, instruct all the people about preventablc and contagious diseases, contagious defects, and the gener- al principles of hygiene and sanita- ton?
 While we await the awakening of the government, what is being done, and what can be done, to prevent this great waste of life?
 Many cities have elaborate systems of medical inspection, followed up by the treatment of children at their homes, nurses, etc. This is very fine and much to be desired. Too much caD not he done hut npuSt we deSDaiT r because We cannot do big things, and have no money to employ medical in spectors? There is one way by which every school in this country can have medical inspection, and the childrel, instructed in the laws of preventable diseases, sanitation and health This
