FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
The Story of Her Ministrations tc
Soldiers of the Crimea RetoId,

Sometimes We read financial stories
acts to help the poor and needy. Here
is true story OF woman who gave
such comfort and happiness that she
was called an angel by the suffering
soldiers of Crimea.
Florence Nightingale, who is still liv-
ing, was born ninety years ago in IT.
ally. Her parents We're rich English
people. During childhood little Flor
ence spent much of her time playing
with her sister in the garden OF their
beautiful English home. When the
! girl grew older she studied very hard
for she was anxious to learn.
| When still quite young Florence
Nightingale often rode into the coun-
Try with a clergyman of her parish. to
| visit the cottages of the poor. AS the
good man had studied medicine he was
able to doctor those whom he found
i'll. The girl by listening, watching
and helping to care for those humble
people learned much about relieving
suffering. When Miss Nightingale
grew to be a woman she went to Ger,
many to be trained for nurse Then
for several years she spent much of
her money and all her time working
at a hospital in London.
When the terrible Crimean War
broke out England sent shiploads OF
men to the Black Sea to fight for Rus
slams. In the great hast neither
lproper food nor suitable clothing was
iprovided for the soldiers. How the
poor men suffered from hunger and
sickness as well as from the drenchine
rains and heavy SHOWS! Famine anG
liShmen to perish.
Florence Nightingale read of the des
, titutc circumstances Of her country
, men. She decided to go to Crime;
| with company OF nurses to he'll
them. All through Europe they were
, helped on their way. Every homo
was shown to them for these good wo
men We're the first little band to at
tend the sick and wounded amid th'
din of battle.
Many OF the suffering soldiers seem
. ed to revive at the sight OF these gen
, tie women. They said that Florenc
Nightingale's presence was like tha
, Of one sent from above. She wa
called the angel OF the Crimea. Th
great work those women did can ney
CT be told, but the world will alway
love the memory Of Florence Nightir
; gale and her faithful nurses.

To Encourage Rome-Euiidirg.

Some Of our very many American
millonaires might find valuable les
son in tn" Will OF Peter Il. Burns. Of
Liberty, who died recently worth
something like $4,000. Under the
terms of Mr. Burns Will his entire
estate is left to his wife during her
| lifetime. At her death one-half OF it
is to go to Clay county, to be ad-
ministered by the county court. The
fund is to be loaned by the county
court to men who desire 10 build
may be loaned TO any one person. The
| interest charge will be Two per cent
and the borrower must pay back 500
each year until the entire debt has
been discharged.
The fortune Of Mr.. Burns is Il
small one compared to what many
men have to give away, but it is cas-
ily seen that his plan for its use will
operate to Very great advantage of
our sister county. Should the court
decide to loan the entire amount in
sums Of $4,000 ten men would be able
to build homes. Should it decide up
on loans of 81 900, which is more like,
ly, twenty men would be served. As
the loans are paid off others can be
made. so that the benefit from the
fund will be continuous. Within &
comparatively few years large mum.
Der of Clay county families will own
homes who would never be able to
Iprocure one in any other way.
1t is we'll known and universally
admitted fact that home owners are
generally good citizens, in most in,

THE MUSIC TEACHERS.

Ii is not a frequent experience III
the life OF city of the size OF Co
lumbia, that OF entertaining and being
entertained by an organization OF the
class OF the Missouri State Music
Teachers acknowledgements
tive of the culture and attainment
of the profession in this state. As
with other organizations which are
cemented by common interest. the
ton is largely OF a fraternal nature
to bring musicians together, to pro
mote fellowship or interest and pur-
pose. But beyond and above this prin-
ciple of the organization is that OF
standardizing the profession OF the
musician in Missouri. To accomplish
this purpose will require that the
state give to the musician the Tecog-
milton that has been accorded the law
yer and doctor, and others of the pro-
fessions A license or legal diploma
will protect the public from imposi,
ton by quack musicians as it does
from the quack DOCTOR the shyster
lawyer.
The association also designs to raise
the grade OF instruction in music in
the grammar and high schools, which
alone is a most commendable purpose
Within the last year the University OF
Missouri has recognized this branch OF
instruction in the high school and en-
trance credit is now allowed for it.
In the way of entertainment the
visit of the music teachers to Columbia
means unusual opportunity for enjoy
ing the best that Missouri has. The
local committee has worked with yea
to this end with full measure o
success. The community can do NJ
less justly than return liberal supper
to the efforts OF the committee.
The life of organizations of the char
acter of the Music Teachers associa
tion might well center about the high
est educational Institution of the stat
the University OF Missouri. Hope
to this end are entertained by tn
leaders in the association. Whethe
or not they are realized will dcpen,
largely upon the support accorded b,
Columbia people this week.
The opportunity is ours.

Tuberculosis Exhibit.

One of the best methods yet discov-
cred for promoting the anti-tubercu-
losis campaign, now organized in al
most every state, is the travelling eX-
hibits that are III use in many states.
The rapid march OF tuberculosis in
the United States is thought to be due
more than to any other cause, to the
almost universal ignorance among the
people regarding the true nature and
character OF the disease. The general
impression for many years seems to
have been that tuberculosis is heredi-

THE DULL SUMMER?

Columbia is dead in the summer
time," says the man who goes to the
resorts, and he gives an awful shud-
der, as though it We're the last place
he would wish to be in. Yet the con
ception that the town is dead" is with
out foundation. except for those who
lack vitality TO mako life" for them
selves.
The attractions brought here in the
summer give ample diversion for a
time Two superior entertainments
in the form of the Musical convention
and the Coburn players will help to
make bright spot this summer.
Stroll each afternoon to tho golf
links south of the university and there
may be seen score or two of players
who get pleasure and athletic skill
from the game. Tennis also provides
amusement.
The paths that abound in the coun-
try surrounding will be worn yet
smoother this summer by couples and
parties having vitality to make a pleas
ant summer here in CoAmbia.

And the lamps are shining bright.

Round town with their tincan band.
Santa is laughing,
Young fellows chatting
Fun is abroad in the land.

The children waking,
Stars given way to the sun.

Their praise to the only One.
Tables are creaking.

The cheer of a Christmas Day.

Two Great Achievements.

Last spring when in Europe I was
struck by the fact that every states
man | met deemed two acts of the
American people during the past de
cade pre-eminentlv worth notice: these
two being the voyage of the battleship
fleet around the world. and the business
like efficiency with which we are DONG
the work of the Panama Canal
Now onr own people have largely
been ignorant of the really wonderful
work that has been done on that canal.
No men in our history, save only some
of the men engaged in the great wars
which founded and perpetuated this ma
ton. have such a claim on the graft
tuda of the nation as those who have
done such efficient work on the Panama
Canal.
THAT work represents one of our
greatest national assets one of the
greatest feats TO he credited to our ma
tion throughout our entire history.
Enormous sums of money have been
spent, and vet there IS practically no
taint Of corruption in connection with
SPENDING them.
