HAVE 1T OVER.

If the sOphOmOres and freshmen
must have a contest of some sort, a
football contest such as reported in
yesterdays University Missourian is
not entirely bad one. Rivalry be-
tween the two classes is a natural
in a friendly way will lessen the
probabilities of strife and contention
which may lead to bitterness and
unfortunate accidents.
Some contest that will require the
strength and skill of a good num-
ber of each class and the supporting
presence of all will serve in a way
to bind the members of each class to-
gether. The freshmen need especial
ly something that will create feeling
o. common interest among them
selves and get them better acquainted
but to get sucn feeling at the cost
OF bitterness between them and the
sOphOmOres is not a good exchange.
If there must be contest
judgment should be used to prevent
possibilities of unfortunate occur
re noes, and it should be over soon,
so the hatchet can. be buried and
the minds of both classmen turn to
matters of Importance. But let us
be sure that We preserve the general
good feeling of the year

"GOOD ROADS" TO THE END,

Columbia and the adjoining coun-
try seems to be determined upon
having good roads. Everything is
good roads. That is the one topic
for discussion among business men
in this section.
And that's the way to get good
roads if with all this talking and
planning there will be the right
amount of doing. 100000 in bonds
voted by the people of this district
bears witness to their activity and
liberality.
The fight is never finished until
the thing is accomplished The start
has been good. But the roads are
not yet built.

THE WORKING WOMAN.

The working man has long been
a factor in our university and col
lege life. but the working woman is
Just becoming one. The feeling to-
ward men who work their way on
the part of both faculty and students
is the same as that toward any 9TH
er man, but until recently there has
been sort of repugnance felt to-
ward women who work.
1t is unjust and unreasonable. A
woman who has the courage and de-
termination to get an education
though difficulties do stand in the
way should command the same re-
spect and consideration as the man
who fights against defeating circum-
stances and wins.
The modern social system recog-
niZeS as the ariStOcracy those VINO
do things worth while. Achieve
ment and not money nor title nor
ancestry count. College people
should be as broad minded as the
general social order Both students
and educators should be commended
for the moral encouragement that is
now being given the woman fighting
in adverse conditions. And it is to
the credit of women that they have
the self-reliance that prompts them
to work and win by themselves.

HIS DEFENSE NOT DISCLOSED
Some Speculation As to the Plea Of
the Wife Slayer.

Some Speculation As to the Plea of
the Wife Slayer. .
What will be the defense of
George Fenton who shot and killed
his wife last Monday? His attorneys
have not disclosed the plea they
will make for their client and it is
pr obable that it will not be disclosed
even at the preliminary hearing.
The prosecuting attorney will be
able to prove, it is said, that Fenton
had declared that if his wife would
hot come back to live with him that
he would kill himself. and that some
thing might happen to her, also.
The excuse that he vas overcome
by an irresistible impulse has failed
to exOnerate in New York and other
states, and it is probable world net
hc]G here, since the Missouri lar-
lroadly states that murd:r can only
be exOnerated where it is proved
that the murderer did not know he
was doing a criminal act.
William H. Sapp, assistant prose-
cutting attorney, says that he does
not believe that either insanity or
self-defense, two of the common
pleas in similar cases, could be
brought up in defense of Fenton.
The body of Mrs. Fenton was sent
to Hickory Hill. Cole County, Mis-
souri,. last night for burial. Mrs.
Fenton was member of the Modern
American lodge. Members of that
lodge, two brothers. sons and other
relatives accompanied the body to
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Sta
tion.

IGNORANCE. is CHEF
CAUSEFOR SICKNESS
Study of Disease Propagation
Will Eliminate 1t, Says
DR.. Calvert.
TO LEARN OF PREVENTIVES
Course to be Offered This
Year Will be for Gen.
eral Study.

Ignorance as to the causes of dis
eases is the chief reason for their ex-
istence. When the people have
learned the conditions under which
disease is propagated, there will be
hardly any excuse for a case of ty-
phoid fever, or smallpox or any of
the other diseases that are now COM
mon. This is the theory of Profess
sor w. j. Calvert, who is giving
courses in preventive medicine this
year. This is the first course of it's
kind ever offered here.
The course is not intended pri-
marily for students who intend to
make a professional study of medi-
cine. Professor Calvert hopes to
reach teachers largely, and through
them the children that they will
teach
1T is in the children that our
chief hope of educating the people
lies," said Professor Calvert. IAN
older person can not generally be in
duced to take any interest in such
matters until he becomes sick,
when it is, of course, too late"
Bacteriology will be studied as a
part of the course. Knowing the
life and actions of any germ, it
should be a comparatively simple
matter to destroy them. In fact the
whole theory of sanitation and hy-
giene is based on a thorough un-
derstanding of the causes of dis
eases.
There is scarcely any excuse for
a case of typhoid fever in Columbia
or in any other town." said Profess
sor Calvert, except that the people
do not know the causes of the dis
ease. 1t is not their fault that they
do not know, because they have no
way of learning. The facts are not
accessible, except to men trained in
medicine. The medical professor
has been to some extent shrouded in
mystery. This course will try to pre-
sent the facts so as to be readily un-
derstood by anyone"
Professor Calvert was formerly a
member of the School of Medicine
faculty for six years. For the last
two years he has been in Dallas, Tex
as.
About thirty students are enrolled
in the classes already, which is con-
sidered good number for the first
year. 1t is expected that more will
take the course in future years when
the course has become more firmly
established. and better known.
While this is one of the first
courses offered as a matter of gen.
eral education, several other insti- |
tutions have given instruction along
these lines for students specializing
in medicine. Wisconsin has a course |
which is intended to train men for |
service on boards of health, and
Harvard gives similar course. Pro-
fessor Calvert says that he expects a |
course of this kind will be given |
sometime in the future.

HACKNEY KICKS
WELL IN PRACTICE
Three Field Goals by Captain
Who also Makes a
Touchdown.
GIBSON SEES SCRIMMAGE
Chemistry Professor Will
Again Help Coach if He
Can Find Time.

Hackney started making points
for Missouri again when he kicked
field goal from the twenty-five
yard line in yesterdays scrimmage.
For the first time this season two
teams lined up against each other
on Rollins Field. The work of the
men was distinctly in the class of a
Varsity or scrub team.
Hackney was in at quarter on the
offensive. Wilson was playing CEN
ter, Knoble and Lemire, halfback,
and Wilder at fullback. Lake cap
tanned the defensive and played
quarterback.
In the ten minutes of scrimmage,
Hackney attempted six field goals,
three of which sailed over the bar
accurately. In order to give variety
tC the proceeding Hackney tore off
two or three runs around end, one
of which went for thirty yards and
a touchdown.
The Tigers are rounding into
shape speedily, and with plenty of
signal practice and scrimmage next
week will be well prepared to meet
the attacks of William Jewell. A
week later the game with Rolla will
be the start of hard playing. 1t
will show the quality of the team.
There are no calls for material
such as were heard at this time last
year. There are fifty men with good
chances to win places on the VAR
sity. Hackney, Lake and Wood
ward are showing the best form at
present at quarterback. At center
Wilson, of last years freshman team,
seems the most likely candidate, in
spite of the fact that his weight is
under 160 pounds. Bressler is a big
man who has had some experience
at the place, and should be better
this year than ever.
DR.. ]. A. Gibson, who has assisted
the Missouri coaches for years, was
out watching practice for the first
time yesterday. After practice Doc
tor Gibson stated that if he could
get his work up by Monday he would
be out to help coach the Tigers again
this year. DR.. Gibson is instructor
in chemistry, but has devoted his af-
ternOOns for years on Rollins Field
helping out the Tiger coaches.
In speaking about the material
this year, Doctor Gibson said that
was the last thing that would worry
him. ''The material runs about the
same from year to year. If you lose
heavy tackle or guard one year,
things are evened up by finding a
fast back or end. This year the
squad is larger than it was last year,
but the material is about the av-
erage.'
After a few minutes Doctor Glib
son continued, "It's the training and
coaching, the spirit of the men, and
the condition they are in that makes
a winning or losing team"
In considering the candidates for
quarterback Doctor Gibson said that
at least three men should be kept on
the Varsity squad for that position.
Hackney, Lake, and Woodward he
selected as the men showing the best
form now.
Doctor Gibson said yesterday that
the work on the bucking machine |
that Professor Brewer had intro
duced would do more toward devel-
oping a good line from the new men |
en- hand than anything else.

Educator Says tt Beats Working in
Factory.

Washington. Aug. 31-The moral,
educational and economic condition of
children in villages, towns and small
cities all over the country, especially
factory towns, can be improved, in the
opinion of United States Commissioner
of Education Claxton, by a system of
agricultural training which he hopes
to have installed in all the schools of
the country.
ut will go far to solve the child
labor factory problem, believe" said
DR.. Claxton today, for children under
this plan will be able to attend school
and at the same time earn more money
In their after school hours than they
can now earn in any factory. Their
health, morals, education, all would
be improved
''The plan which I hope to see car
ried out is to have each school child
cultivate small piece of land Even
on quarter-acre a child could earn
more by raising vegetables than he
could obtain in factory. At the same
time the child would be gaining a val
liable training, getting his education,
keeping his health and preparing to
become a useful citizen
Commissioner C1axton has Just xe-
turned from tour through the coun-
try discussing educational matters with
state superintendents He said he
thought all of them would be willing

sch eng
He said that in Memphis. Tenn. he
had learned that one little girl had
raised vegetables at the rate of $4,000
worth an acre. This, he declared, made
him feel confident his plan could be
made a success. He would have an
agricultural inspector to teach the
children and inspect their tracts
Prizes might be offered as incentives
