Plans for the Coming
Year.

Barnes University for the first
time in the history of the school is
entirely free from debt, it was an.
nounced Wednesday night to a gath.
ering of faculty and alumni to mark
the reorganization of the college.
Barnes has the best prospects for
several years, according to state
nents made to the faculty Wednes-
day night. DR.. C. H. Hughes, presi-
dent of the Board of Trustees, who
has returned to the university after
an absence of four years, stated that
he expected the largest freshman

Final arrangements for this will be
concluded later.
Members of the faculty told of
plans for extensive changes in the

lsrged before the opening of school,
September q, by the addition of
several professors. The fourth year
of the course will be made entirely

DR.. Kennedy traced the history of
the school in his talk, showing the
adverse conditions under which the
college had prospered. He stated
that the equipment of the college
at present compares most favorably
with that of any medical school in
the country.
About fifty faculty and alumni
were present, besides several wom-
en-. All were enthusiastic over the
prospects of the college for the COM
ing year, feeling that a crisis in the
development of Barnes had been sue
cessfully passed.
DR.. Hughes presided at the dinner.
He was president of the college from
its foundation until four years ago.
This year he will serve as president
of the Board of Trustees.-St. Louis

A Municipal Flower Farm.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, is the only city
in the country that has a municipal
flower farm started with the aim of
providing floral and horticultural ex-
hibits for the Panama California In

city. officials who are promoting the
farm, found they could save hund-

Park to grow flowers and it is ex-

GETTING STARTED RIGHT.

In great measure a mans success
depends upon the start he makes.
Every one knows that it is much
harder to start a load then to keep it
going after it has been started.
Students will find this as true as
will a man in any business or pro-
fession. The right attitude toward
things in the beginning will throw
a ray of light along the course which
will reveal many an obstacle that
being seen beforehand may be avoid
ed and will show many smooth
stretch where greater speed may be
attained.
This problem of geetting started
right will confront every student
who enters the University of Missou-
ri or any other university or college
this year. He has the course before
him. He may travel much as he
chooses. Then he ought to have his
wits working and be sure he starts
with the right sort of companions
and the right sort of equipment.
BE sure you are right and then
go ahead" is as sound today as it
ever was or ever will be.

state need not require many very
great digressions from direct route.
The idea seems entirely possible
and practical. To have such a high
way of easy travel connecting the
two coasts, running through the very
heart of the nation, with branches
leading to all corners. would mean
to promote unity of feeling and COM
mon interests and to bring a better
knowledge of the conditions and
needs of the various sections. 1t
would mean the United States more
closely united.

SUGAR UP, CANDY
WILL COST MORE
Johnny May Not Get So
Many Sticks for His
Nickle Hereafter.
CHEAPEST AFFECTED MOST
Prices of Best CONNECTIONS
Will Not Be Changed,
Manufacturer Says.

When little Johnny runs to the
corner grocery with a few pennies
in his chubby hand to buy stick
candy for himself and sister Mary,
he unconsciously relates himself to
European crop conditions and the
manipulatiOns of the sugar barons.
For where Johnny used to get ten
sticks of candy for a nickle, he is
likely to get only eight stricks now.
That is because of the 2-cent Jump
in the price of sugar, which has re-
duced the size of the dollar sack in
some communities to twelve pounds,
and has made a big difference in the
plans Of manufacturing confectioners
and other large users of sugar.
But the young man who buys a
Accent box of candy for his steady
at the drug store or the confection-
er's need not worry. The Accent
bcx is still 40 cents.
Manufacturer Explains Situation.
"The difference" said Edward
Wenneker of the Blanke-Wenneker
Candy Company, will be that the
man selling Accent candies will not
handle quite the same grade of
candy. 1t will be just as wholesome
and taste just as good. What he
will do will be to buy a few pounds
OF candy at few cents less a pound
than he has been in the habit of buy
ing, and mix it in with the higher
grades.
"In goods that are sold to the pub
lie is original packages; that is, in
packages just as they are put up by
the manufacturer, there is no change
in prices. They will continue to sell
the some. On candies of the grade
there was first an advance to the re-
taller of half cent a pound and
then another half-cent raise.
Expensive Candies Not Affected.
This will not materially affect
the price of the more expensive can
dies. The place where it hits is on
the cheap candies that sold wholesale
as low as 1-2 cents a pound. On
these the retailer will have to give
less than he did for the same
money"
While the candy market has fol-
lowed the sugar market upward, it
has not gone so fast or so far, ac-
cOrding to Mr.. Wenneker. Many
manufacturing confectioners made
large contracts in June, when prices
were around 5 cents a pound, and
they still have some of that sugar;
but on purchase this week the
Blanke-Wenneker Company had to,
pay about Z cents pound.-St.

School Girls Refusal Perplexes New
Jersey Authorities.
JERSEY CITY, N. j., Sept. 15.-
The public school authorities Of New
Jersey were called upon yesterday
for the first time in the history OF
the state, to deal with the situation
arising from the refusal of pupil
to salute the American flag or take
the oath of allegiance at school exer-
cises. For many years the state
school laws have compelled the SAL
utation of the flag and the renewal of
the oath of allegiance to it every
morning. ,..-
At the opening of the Perth Am
boy schools yesterday, Catherine
Audsley, a 14-year-old pupil, refused
to comply with this law and was
sent home by the school superintend-
ent. NJ. F. Audsley, the girls faith
er, who is a British subject, went to
New York at once and placed the
matter before the British consul.
He said he did not prohibit his child
rem from paying all the respect due
to the American flag, but he had in
structed them not to take the oath
of allegiance to it. The British con-
sui will send to the proper authori-
ties in Perth Amboy papers confirm
ing the statement that Mr.. Audsley's
children are bona fide subject of
Great Britain.

AUGUSTA HOUSE WINS.
Trims the Soreheads in interesting
Game at the Driving Park.

The Soreheads, as they choose to call
themselves, accepted challenge
which the fast Augusta House team
flung to the wind Thursday and a game
was arranged for Friday afternoon
The Soreheads were there and they
were there strong at the first of the
game, for up to the seventh inning the
score was only to in favor of the
hotel lads, but then the hot sun which
had been pouring down on the brow OF
the Sorehead's sturdy little pitcher,
Cove, seemed to weaken him and the
Augusta House boys just pounded that
ball in great shape.
Cove then took the position of short
stop and Grant, who claims all records
for strikeouts threw five balls over
for practice after which with a conf
dent smile threw curve to Millett,
who met it for two-bagger Then it
was a merry go-round for a little
While and Pooler came from short to
try his luck, but by that time the All
gusta House boys were tired of run
ming around the bases and they tossed
up the sponge, with the final score l6
to g.
The feature of the game was triple
play in the fourth inning, by Jackson,
Merrill and c. Fitzgerald The lineups
Of the two teams were as follows: Au-
eusta House Stockweli catcher, Nc
Donald pitcher, c. Fitzgerald first base,
