VT is to be hoped that no remon
STRANGE will be filed with the City
Council against the proposed improve
ment of University avenue, a street
that s shOnld Oe;one a.isl, g the most nos beau
tiful in Columbia. The City Council
has passed resolutions asking that il
be paved. and. provided the majority
llof The property owners do not object
the paving will be ordered.
University avenue leads to the main
University campus from the east, and
runs through one of the best resi-.
dence districts in town. It crosses
three streets that are timproved Ii
is wide street, wide enough to al
low parking of ten feet on each side
of thirty-fcot brick pavement
The matter has been before the pub.

the first streets that was, asked to
be paved. but the property owners
voted against it. When Broadway, the
first street to be improved, was paved
some of the property owners on Uni

but nothing but a continual wrargfe
has resulted. May the property owna
ers get together and agree to the i'm.

THE CITY SCHOOL

In Germany plans are being con,
sidered for placing the city schools
: in the surrounding country in order
that the school children may be sur
, rounded by woods and fields instead
; of brick and morter. - ~
The United States is a younger and
, less thickly populated country than
is Germany, and yet its large cities
might adopt such plan to advantage.
The, Rev. DR.. Philip S. Moxem, in an
article entitled The Child and Social
Reform" In the, North American Re
] view. points out that next to the home
the school is the most important fac
tor in the environment of the child.
He says that by a good school he
means school good not only in equip
ment, teacher and methd, but good
also in atmosphere and surroundings,
He tells of scheme to put all the
kindergarten, primary and even gram
mar schools in the country and con-
vey the pupils there and back every
day. He says that the plan is made
feasible by the greatly increased
means of transportation. He urges
that school children should be given
air and light and brought into. contact
with nature.
There really seems to be no good
reason why such a plan should not be
carried ou: in the large cities of this
country. Financially it is quite pos
sible. Those who propose this change
in the German schools believe that
the sale of the present sites of the
school buildings wonid coyer all the
expenses espsed by the change, and
this would ,$eestless be true.in regard /.
to the schools in this country. From
a social point of view, the plan is a
good one, because OF the more useful
members it would be Instrumental in
society.

"cAsHINe in" THE cow.

Another move by the College of Ag
riculture that will help advertise the
school is the plan to exhibit Missouri
Chief Josephine to the farmers of the
state. The COW will be shipped with
other exhibits on special trains run
under the direction of the College and
shown tc the farmers.
Josephine is already famous. but
certainly farmers in Missouri will feel
that they know more about the work
OF the dasssaepartrHent here when
they see the cow they have heard so
much about. New plans are worked
out every mpnth for the education Of
the farmers Of the state. and this is
the newest one.
The visit of Josephine over the state
will doubtless prove profitable both
for the spectators and the college.
Every step that helps bring the col
lege to the farmers is an appreciation
Of the support the school receives and
an expression of a desire for addi-
tional support.

But do what you're told to do;
It's fair to suppose that yer mother

Don't seem the wisest. quite;
But the easiest way.
When she's had her say,
Is to reckon your mother is right
Courted her ten long winters II

When she went down one spell to
town.
4 cried like burned oil fool;
Got mad at the boys for callin',
When ! sparked her Sunday night
But she said she knew ia
A thing or two,
An reckod your mother was right.
l courted her till was aging
And she was past her prime
I'd have died guess, if she hadn't
said yes
When l popped f'r the hundredth

She said she'd never have took me
If I hadn't STUCK - tight
Opined that We
Could never agree,
And reckon yer, mother wuz right.

"Twee Decide" is the result of
a competition which was held by
the New York Herald, for which
a prize OF $1,000 was offered for
the idea.
In announcing its contest for

emphatic in its assurance that
only merit should count. AS a
result, illustrators and artists en-
tered the competition, drawings
were submitted from foreign
countries, and even school chill
dren and workingmen pitted
their crudely sketched ideas
against the productions OF skilled
craftsmen.
The prize for this widely con-
tested idea was awarded to John

engaged by the New York Herald
to develop "Mr. Twee Decide"
into a full-page feature for it's
