University building. Another good
feature of the fire brigade is that those
students who live near the University
in Benton Hall will compose three of
the companies. With the organization
of student fire-fighters the danger of

Viewpoints.
Advertising the University

Editor the MissOurian: The Glee
Club of the University of Missouri
formerly toured the state giving con
certs at various towns. Ii was stated
that these concerts advertised the Uni
|versity. They frequently lost money
and at the close of 1910 the debt ac.
formulated by the various trips had
amounted to $500.
The advertising given the Univer-
sity by this club was so little as to be
scarce worth mentioning. This was
not the fault of the club. The places
the glee club visited simply did not
care for the entertainment offered and
We're bored by the performances. The
Glee Club did not take a trip this
year
But there il a chance that the Uni
versity of Missouri may be represent
ed in one of the largest cities of
Missouri by an organization that not
only does credit to the school. but
is sure to please those who may at
tend the performance. Hundred Dol
lar Bill'' is one of the brightest and
wittiest musical comedies seen in Co
lumbia for a long time.
In fact Hundred Dollar Bill'' is too
good thing to keep to ourselves
Others ought to be permitted to get
the benefit of it. And the Univer
Siry of Missouri will get some of the
best advertising in Kansas City it has
ever got if the play is presented there

THE DEMAND FOR NEWS.

Broader interests OF humanity are
daily claiming the attention of news.
papers, but the demand for news goes
on forever" said Charles H. Grasty.
Journalism Week. Today every one
realizes that the news is the chief fea-
ture of the newspaper
This for news is doubtless due TO
the interest people feel in fiction the
the most successful story is usually
the most realistic The reader wants
to fell that the situations are not i'm
possible and that the characters are
like real people A character must be
neither too good nor too bad to be
human.
In the news story one gets the real
people. Perhaps it is the achieve
ment of some daring aviator that holds
ones attention, perhaps it is the deeds
OF Statesmen whose personality is
known throughout the country. or per-
haps it is only some little human in
terest event lowering between laugh
ter and tears-'but it is true story
OF real people, and it is read with
interest.
When one realizes what news really
is the statement that the demand for
news goes on forever does not sound
strange.

Would Cultivate Ivy.

Editor the MisSOurian: Allow me
to make 4 suggestion in regard to the
ivy covering the buildings around the
quadrangle. Missouri buildings are
blessed with a luXuriant growth of
ivy unknown to most universities, and
up to its full verdure the flower
it should see that this growth is kept
beds and smnken gardens have been
recently measured and cultivated. Why
not fertilize the ground underneath
the ivy?. A little spreading and cul-
tivation would insure a thick growth
of ivy on the buildings.
incidentally. the same operation
might be applied to the columns and
there would be no need for that Oft
repeated question, why don't some OF
the columns have ivy?" Again inciden.
tally. the university authorities and up
perclassmen might take active measur-
es to prevent town boys from climbing
upon the blocks and destroying the
vines. l have seen juniors and SEN
iOrs on the mounds sitting idly by
when a dozen kids rOmp over the
mounds and base-blOcks as if they

the subject. let's apply the experiment
of cultivating the soil for a more

ENGLAND'S DIVORCE TROUBLE!
Church Edict of 1903 Makes Separa-
tion Difficult-Reform Desired.

ton Dlr1iCult-heIoTm OeSiTeu.
They are having lots of trouble in
England about divorce. They want a
reform of the laws. They don't
zee why all the luxuries should be
confined to a special caste and why
the poor man should be debarred from
little pleasant variety in his married
life. In England reform means more
divorce. In America it means less.
That is the difference between the
two countries.
Ii is one of the faults of the old
world that people never do a new
thing merely because it is the common
sense thing to do. They get at their
problems in quite another way Now
here is rich man whose wife has
revoked at whist or something of that
kind and who wants a divorce. He
can have it. But the poor man can
not have it. He cannot afford il with
the price of beer what it is. Now the
obvious way is to lessen tho expenses
or let the poor man have his divorce
on the installment plan, dollar down,
dollar week. But no. The first
thing to do is to hunt the archives.
Possibly some venerable old parson
said something about divorce a thOus-
and brief summers ago. There may be
reference to it in some wormeaten
old parchment that must be found al
all costs. Then the opinion of the
Archbishop of Canterbury must be ask
ed, and the views of about 900 little
curates will be instantly available
without asking. The discussion will
wax fast and furious, but no one will
suggest that if poor people are Ell
titled to divorce according to the right
of~human nature they ought to have
it.
For example. here is some genius
who writes to the London Standard in
answer to another genius who wants
to know what are the views of the
Church of England on divorce. He does
not say why he wants to know the
views of the Church of England be-
cause that might be used in
evidence against him before
the lunacy commission. All the
same he wants to know, or says he
does. Now comes along genius num-
Der two, who tells him. 1t seems that
the church's regulations are comprised
in her "canOns ecclesiastical agreed
upon by the bishops and clergy in
their synod begun at London Ammo Do
mini 1903" We don't believe we have
ever read that work. There has been
such flood of light literature since
Magma Charta that something must be
missed. The church, it seems, did
smile tOlerantly on divorce a tOro ct
mensa, which seems to mean judicial
but it had simply never
heard of divorce a vinculo, which is
the permanent kind they run at Reno.
and which may get introduced into
California if We are not careful. The
brand was not introduced into
England until 1857. but the church dis
it. So it is hard to see what
can be done for the poor man in face
of that little episcopal frolic "at Lon

THE STATES UNFoRTUNATES.

Missouri's care of her afflicted and
than no care at all, according to re-
cent report by the State Board of
Charities and Corrections. 1t is even
a question whether the methods en-
ployed do not make more suffering
than they relieve.
Three items from the long list of
faults pointed out by the report are:
Ninety per cent of the feeble-minded
are allowed to go at liberty, and the
state is thus permitting its burden to
increase. One hundred children in
county almshouses are confined with
1000 insane persons and 500 feeble
minded. Fifteen hundred young pris-
oners. first offenders between the ages
of Is and 80. are confined with harden
ed prisoners in the penitentiary."
The results Of such conditions are
plain-the birth of more feeble-minded
persons, the dwarfing and cOntamina-
tion of the minds of children, and the
development of criminals.
The causes for existing conditions,
according to the report, are shortage
of funds and lack of systematic meth
DDS. To overcome such disgraceful
and harmful conditions is simply a
question of more dollars and sense
