The College World.
Trained Journalists.

One or two newspapers have aroused
some discussion by asserting that the
college-trained men whom they have
tried on their staffs have never been
even moderately successful, from
which It is argured that schools OF
journalism are worse than useless.
There was a time when medical
schools we're laughed at. 1t was as
sumed that young men could only be
properly trained in doctors Offices,
whereas, as a matter of fact, these
were the very places where. they re-
ceived the poorest kind Of training.
So also in the legal profession law
schools were ridiculed. Medical and
law schools are modern things, and
it has not been many years since they
were objects of suspicion. In fact.
only when their early students be-
came the older members of the pro-
fessions did this suspicion die out.
1t is manifestly absurd to assume
that a man will be ruined for journal
ism il he is taught Journalism as a
profession, and it is just as ridiculous
to assert that the student will not be
greatly benefited by such training,
assuming Of course that the school
which he attends is good one. In
journalism as in anything else some
aptitude for the work is required.
Some men cannot write and never
will know now to write.
One great trouble with journalism
today is that there are not enough
collegebred men in 1t. II the press
is to influence or make public opinion,
evidently the press should itself be
controlled by men who have been
taught how TO think clearly and well,
who know the English language. who
are acquainted with history and the
arts, and who are thoroughly educated
in a general way. Yet the greatest
journalists will still be, born. not
made, no matter how many schools
of Journalism there are. The great
mass of workers can be trained for
their work. but even training cannot
make great journalists. They, like
great men in any profession, are born,
taking due pains after birth of course
to make themselves ready for their
life-work. - Charleston News and

TO PROTECT THE MOTHERS.

~ TnObG bGSt TIE @OS"sVSs
A member of the Missouri Legisla.
ture proposes to introduce a bin re.
quiring a nine-hour day schedule for
all employed women. Two or three
years ago such a bill was passed by
the legislature of Oregon and was op-
peed by the employers of women of
that state. Within the last year this
law was tested before the United
States Supreme Court and was sus-
tanned upon the ground that the state
had the right to protect and guard
the health of women because Of their
relationship to the health and life
of childhood.
A woman cannot work in a shop
or factory ten apd twelve hours a day
and rear family the way it should
be reared. The moral life and physi.
cal health of the mothers must be
guarded at all cost. At present there
are 175.ooo women in Missouri en-
gagged in the gainful occupations and
any law guards this great army Of
mothers and daughters will commend
itself to every thoughtful citizen Of
the state.

"The two elements-bulls and bears

founded upon the great law of sup.

PAY YOUR DEBTS TO SOCIETY.

PAY YOUR DEBTS TO SOCIETY.
Some men discharge their financial
obligations to charity and religion by
attending a fifty cent dinner for which
they pay a quarter. There are other
men who yield to the appeals of some
charming woman and buy a dimes
worth of Red Cross stamps and are
satisfied that they have been liberal
enough for at least one year.
With the increasing number of re-
ligious. social and educational insti.
tutions has also come larger demands
for money to support them. This has
led to personal appeals. bazars, din.
ners, concerts, fairs and other in
genious devices to extract money out
of the unwilling giver. To the minds
ofemany,. these appeals have become
30 numerous that giving is no longer
. pleasure but burden.
There are at least two things rela.
tive. to giving that every man ought
to settle in his own mind. In the
fifst place, every progressive COM
munity needs the influence of
churches. schools, hospitals and other
good agencies. In the second place.
every citizen ought to carry his share
Of the burden in the support of these
institutions. The truth is that the
people who give more than they ought
to give are so few that they are not
to be reckoued with. "The Lord
loveth q cheerful giEer," the emphasis
upon the cheerful. Let every man
estimate what he spends upon his
own comforts and pleasures and then
with q fair mind decide what he owes
to, the less fortunate, and give it like
man. Pay your debt to society like
you. pay your grocer or, your tailor.

SCIENCE AND THE FARMER.

From among mass Of rather de.
pressing statistics about the rush Of
the farmers of America to the cities,
there shines forth .one large ray of
sunshine. One Of the most cheering
statements that has been made re-
Gently is that made by F. H. Crowell
Of Butler, Mo-, in an address to the
Missouri Corn Growers Association.
He said that the average yield of
corn for each acre under cultiva.
tion in the state has been raised
from 28.4 bushels to 1926 bushels in
the last few years.
How much that apparently simple
statement means cannot be noticed
at the first reading. An increase of
four bushels to the acre does not
sound very startling; But when the
total gain to the state on account of
this gain in the corn crop is caicu-
lated, 1t is found that the value, of
the corn crop Of this year is ten
million dollars more than it was a
few years ago.
Tho average yield Of the cereal
crop in the United States for each
acre is small compared to that in
other countries. and many students
Of scouditions have declared that the!

Upon comparing these amounts, 1,
seems that the farmer gets a cent
and half, the baker two cents, and
the retailer one cent, leaving half a
cent to be divided between the grain
dealer, the railroads, the commission
man, and the miller.
He showed that the commission man
gets cent and a half for every 100
loaves. while the farmer gets a cent
and half for every loaf. Should

take his warehouse receipt and get
the wheat on it from the elevator,

uN.xeasIrv. AND THE FARMER

As result of Farmers Week many
persons will come to appreciate the
fact that the University really exists
for service to the state. Its main
service must always be the education
Of the men and women who come here.
But aside from this it is of great
service IN helping the people of the
state solve whatever problems con.
front them.
The direct service of the University
h shown through its agricultural de.
partment probably better than through
any other. II the University can show
the farmers how to- increase one
acres output of corn by nine or ten
bushels, the significance of this is
easily comprehended.
1t isn't the fault of the University
that it's service is not more extended.
1t is the purpose OF the University to
serve as many as it can in all the
ways 1t can.
