POOL HALLS IN COLUMBIA,

Missouri laws forbid that minors

law does not except University stu
dents. 1t should rather be more rigid

more likely to know what the son is
doing. and has the opportunity to act
before the law is applied.
Columbia invites boys from all parts
of -.this state, and from other states,

are reluctant to send their children
away from home TO be educated and
the moral influence is the chief thing
feared. The duty of Columbia, as the
home of the State University, is plain

EDITOR 1911 SAVITAR
George w. Chlds

The benevolent characteristics OF
George w. Childs, his warm sympathy
for all humanity, were so pronounced
that they have Overshadowed his fame
as one of Americas great editors of
the nineteenth century. That he was
an editor of more than ordinary ability
in national way is attested by the
wonderful success that came TO the
Philadelphia Public Ledger under his
direction. Mr.. Childs purchased the
Ledger at time when it was losing
money to startling degree. and when
its reputation as newspaper was
worth little. He became it's owner
IN 1867, at n price of S15O,00O. and
after thirty year, as its editor and
manager. he disposed of the Ledger for
So. SOC, ,000.
The journalistic leaven began to
swell early in the life of Mr.. Childs,
When fourteen years old he fixed il rs
the ambition Of his life to become the
owner of a newspaper Toward this
goal he held his way until the oppor
tnnity came at thirty-five. when, with
the assistance of his friend, l.. p. Drex
Ter. a Philadelphia banker, he pur-
chased the Public Ledger.
Naturally, while nursing a lifelong
ambition 10 become an editor Mr.
Childs had formed principles and ideals
that should guide him when his hopes
came to be realized. and one of these
ideals was that of making of the Led
