Eavors Hobo Oay,

Editor The Missourian: The letter
printed in yesterdays MissOurian
on Hobo Day merits close reading by
every student. The writer naively re.
grets that Hobo Day has changed !;
that what used to be a laughable
though heartless piece of irony leveled
at the poor and unfortunate. has be-
come day partly devoted to teaching
the student, seriously, the real char
acter and condition of the men in our
actual hobo army. But what is more
SERIOUS, the students are even learning
the cause for tramps; why five million
are on the road and why the number
must increase. Even this, perhaps.
could be endured as foolish student
perversion, but the students are ac-
tually being taught cure for tramps.
a pernicious doctrine which, it is
claimed, if put in practice would make
Hoboes impossible! This seriousness
must cease.
Students, since when has it become
a crime to learn facts at the Uni
versity, from first hand sources? Since
when has positive harmfulness" re-
suited from finding out the why of
great social problems? And, candidly.
can you be injured by knowing and
comparing all possible cures for great
social wills, even tho the proposed
cure may come from a victim him.
self?
AS an alumnus, | am wondering if
the students are not still capable of
managing their own stunts in their
own way, and. if they chose, of max
ing them semi-educational and semi
serious.

THE GUTENBERG BIBLE.

At recent auction sale of books, the
Gutenberg Bible sold for $4,000. This
is the highest price ever paid for a
single book. 1t was the property of
the late Robert Hoe, a wealthy New
Yorker, whose collection of rare books
was said to be worth nearly a million
and a half dollars.
The Gutenberg Bible is the first book
known to have been printed from NOV
able type. 1t was published between
1450 and 1455. One hundred and eign.
ty copies were struck off on paper and
thirty on vellum. Twenty-seven of the
former and seven of the latter are said
to be in existence. Only two of these
are in this country, the Gutenberg and
one belonging to ]. Pierpont Morgan.
The Gutenberg copy is the more per-
feet of the two in this country and is
the only one not in a public library or
museum. 1t is valuable as an example
OF the bOokmaker's art, but more be-
cause of its historical interest.
1t is a curious coincidence that Gut
enberg, the printer of this book that
is now the highest priced in the world,
lost everything he had through the pub
lication of these Bibles. To begin the
work, he mortgaged his property.
When the sales of the books proved
too few to meet the debt, the mortgage
was foreclosed. Gutenberg was thrown
out and became a dependent of Adolf,
Archbishop of Nassau.

PROSPECTIVE FRESHMEN.

High school students rom many
cities and towns in Missouri will spend

Columbia with a more or less definite
idea of what the University is. A

efficient CONVERSATION.

Since this is the age of scientific
management, why not apply the prin
ciple to conversation? Thousands OF
needless things are said hourly which
react on the speaker in a direct OF
indirect way. We greet a friend with
the foolish question, "How's every.
thing?" and get as foolish a reply,
''All right" We say, 1T is a fine
day when the opposite would be jus.
as readily agreed with, and in many
cases would be more nearly correct.
Would not our social efficiency be in.
creased by a more individual style of
conversation?
Conversation is purified by silence.
1t is the tactless person who thinks
he must be talking continually to be
interesting. 1t is no more necessary
that person should talk before he is
capable of conversing than it is that
one should play football before he
plays tennis.
In other words, why not increase our
efficiency by managing our conversa-
tion scientifically, and when We must
talk, by showing an individuality of
our own?

journalism Week Visitors
Were Pleased With Stay
Here, They Say.
FIRST VISIT FOR SOME
Through the Press, Newspa-
per Men Pronounce Pro-
gram Il Success.

Journalism Week at the University
of Missouri was pronounced success,
in attendance, in interest and in the
| high character of the addresses de
livered. The newspapers have printed
many columns about the University
and Columbia in connection with re-
ports of Journalism Week and the
consequent advertising is large. Let.
ters from visiting journalists are fill
ed with expressions of praise for the
program and the town. 1t is impOSsi-
BILE to re-publish from other newspapers
the many pleasant things said about
the University and the town. Ex-
tracts from two or three will show
the general character.
1T was our first visit to the great
seat of learning" says the editor Of
the Perry Enterprise in column arti-
cle,' land our eyes We're opened on

Columbia is growing rapidly and
is a clean and prosperous city" writes
the editor of the Marshall Republican.
Its business menare enterprising and
altogether the states seat of learning
is well located. There are over 5000
students enrolled at present. Since
the establfs hment the school in 1910 it
has grown until it now has twenty
eight substantial buildings. The edi-
tors were treated royalty and will all
be glad for another opportunity to
visit that beautiful city"
The editor of the New Haven Notes
writes in part: Journalism Week
which was attended by gOodly pro-
portion of the editors and publishers
of the state at Columbia last week. was
an event that will be long remembered
by the women in the class in journal
ism, other students at the University
and the citizens of Columbia. The
program of exercises for the week
was elaborate in it, conception and
flawlesS in its execution. From the
time the visitors landed on the depot
platform until he bade goodby to his
hosts there was something doing every
and what is most gratifying. it
was all worth while. There as no
"perSiflage'' about it and no "obses-

its scope the useful. the instructive and

In The Normal School at

A new department has been running
for the past three months in the Nor
NAL School at Kirksville. 1t Is
very attractive and popular feature.
to-date rural teachers. Some Of its
courses will strike the public as be-
ing unusually practical and modern.
Among these are the following:
Concrete Arithmetic, with problems
drawn from farm labor, poultry rails.
ing, dairy records, garden crops. Or
chard and general crops, cost and SELL
ing price of live stock, cost OF Iiv-
ing, the plotting of fields, the making
of roads, etc.
Another course includes expert
mental study of disease germs. how
diseases are transmitted, how com
mon diseases are detected and count
eracted, how buildings and premises
may be disinfected or purified.
Wells and we'll waters come in for
a share of attention and experiment,
also ponds and pond waters. creeks
and creek waters.
A new course in General Geography
includes commercial, industrial and
economic elements of civilization, the
growth of commerce, transportation
and communication, handling of raw
materials, study Of industries, etc.
Among the most practical courses
are Rural Life Problems, lands and
labor, rural architecture, general rural
sanitation, rural credit societies, CO.
operative buying and selling, dairy
ing, fruit culture, rural church re-
habilitation, etc.
Rural School Organization, rural
school architecture, consolidation Of
schools, Manual Training, Home Eco
nomics, Industrial Art, rural libraries,
ETC., receive their share of attention.
Recent inspection of schools for pre-
pairing rural teachers in Minnesota
and some other states enables the
Kirksville school to duplicate and
probably surpass the best schemes
for rural education given outside of
Missouri. The students Of these new
rural courses have the advantages of
the use of libraries, laboratories, gar
dens. stereopticons, and other unusu.

NAL School.
All these practical courses will be
reproduced in the Summer Term, be-
ginning May Both. All the usual
courses for all types of progressive
teachers will also be offered in the
Summer Term.

grams and other Information, address,

SURVEYORS
PASS THROUGH
CITY OF MOBILE
BELIEVED IN THAT CITY THAT A
TRUNK LINE Is BEHIND THE
PROPOSED RAILROAD FROM
PENSACOLA TO JASPER.

The Mobile Register Of yesterday
contained the following:
"A surveying party of eleven white
men and half q dozen negroes left
Mobile yesterday morning on the
Southern train for Fulton, eighty
eight miles north Of Mobile. in Clarke
county. The party will survey one
section of the proposed Gulf, Florida
and Alabama railroad, projected from
Pensacola, Fla, to Jasper, in Walker
county, Alabama. 1t is understood that
two other surveying parties are in the
field, one working from Jasper south
and the other out Of Pensacola. The
party which left Mobile was secre-
tive as to it's purpose, none of the
members being willing to give any in
formation for publication.
1T is stated that New York capital
IL behind the new line or railroad,
the charter for which, granted by the
Pensacola city council, gives valuable
water front concessions and the right
to use the streets. The charter was
given last winter, following the failure
of the promoters of the Pensacola and
Andalusta railroad to make good their
promises and the withdrawal of the
charter given to them by the city or
Pensacola. Mr.. Megargle, of New York,
who is at the head Of the new pro-
ject, has put up a bond Of 100000 to
carry out the terms Of the charter,
obtaining in return all the rights which
would have accrued to the promoters
of the Andalusia road If their project
had been carried out.
The fact th6+ the northern terminus
of the projected road is Jasper, west
of Birmingham, has given rise to
speculation as to the motive in build.
ing this road. The Memphis and
Birmingham division Of the Frisco
system runs through Jasper, and
there are some people in Mobile, and
others in Pensacola, who believe that
the Frisco is behind the new road,
although it seems unreasonable that
the New York projectors would go
miles out of their way to make such
connection.
There is also a feeling in Pensa-
cola that the building OF, the road
from Jasper is part of a Louisville
and Nashville scheme to tighten the
grip of that railroad on Pensacola.
I'm the absence of definite informa-
ton, various rumors are offered in
connection with the proposed road
of which those named are the most
important"

there are others who intend Offering

COMPANY TO GRIND
ALGAROBA BEANS

Honolulu will have another important
industry if negotiations which now
promise success go through, and the
making of algaroba meal villa be gone
into on large scale.
At the present time negotiations are
going on between San Francisco men
and Charles w. Renear, who invented
the only machine which has been sue
ceisful in grinding up the beans, AMI
who holds the controlling interest in
the Renear Company Limited.
The men who wish to secure the con-
trolling interest in the company plan to
make the machines here and 90 into
business extensively, doing a general
feed business in addition to the alga-
roha meal manufacturing.
Large plans are being made to use
the machines in the southwest for the
same purpose as there are quantities of
the leans in southwestern Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona.
1t is expected that the deal will go
| through in a few days whereby the
control will pass from Honolulu parties
to those on the mainland.
