Tho "Gym" and the Library.

Editor The Missourian: If one
should wish to convince a legislator
of the need of more buildings for the
University of Missouri, he could moi
do better than place him in the Ii
brary, and give him a lot of outside
reading to do. Make it from 8 to
o'clock in the afternoon. The legis.
latOr might at first think it treat
to get to do some actual studying
But just when he is interested in the
book he is reading, there comes tap
tap tap from the ceiling. No-it's
more like thud thud thud. It's just
the tramping from fifty healthy Uni.
ver:ity girls feet. They are doing
their daily gym" work. The floor
is so small that the girls have to go
by sections. Hence, as soon as one
class is through, another begins. So
it is constant thump thump thump
all afternoon.
And now we come to the main
point at issue. Are we going to have
a combined library and women's gym
nasium (Which is virtually the case),
or are we going to get rich enough
to have what we ought to have-a
women's gymnasium and library in
different buildings, where there will
be no bump bump bump to disturb
the minds of the grinds. For some
day the minds of the grinds may
wither. Good euphony. isn't IT'D
If we can't have a new library. let's
at least have a place where we can
put the women-if for no other rea-
son than to keep them from bothering
the rest of us. But now we are in for
another two years of this bang bang
bang stunt. Let's plan our budget
for the next biennial appropriation
right now. and see that We separate

wages, at least the share that has
been in the past spent for drinks for
other men. The treating habit is the
expensive part Of drinking, say those
who know. Anything that will tend
to prevent b mans injustice to himself
and to his family is good thing for
humanity. so the anti-treating law has
its place on the statute books of Mis-
souri,.

NOW SHE'S AFRAID OF GHOSTS
NJ. U. Girl Tried to Disprove Psychic

A young woman in one of DIR. w. H
Pyle's psychology classes has carried
the experimental idea to an extreme
point. Doubling Doctor Pyle's state.
ment about the tendency of everyone
to be afraid in a graveyard. she de.
cided to find out about it. Leaving
her escort at the graveyard gate she
boldly started for a stroll among the
tombstones.
1t is said that when sheeted forms
arose from obscure spots, the brave
young woman went into Mysteries and
the young man waiting at the gate
had to go to her assistance. Those
who saw the experiment declare tn.
spirits disappeared in the direction

THE PROBLEM OF THE DOLLAR

A young wife wanted a new Easter
hat. She needed a new pair of gloves
and the new spring oxfords were
beautiful. But her meager allowance
was not sufficient to buy all of these
things at one time, and her husband
did not have much money left afte,
paying the grocery bills and other ex
penses at the end of the month.
So she thought to borrow twenty
dollars from very genial man in a
loan shop around the corner. OF
course he would not tell her husband
and the five dollars a month for the
use of the money would not amount
to much more, and she could pay it
all back within a few weeks, she
thought.
But all her allowance was needed
for other things. The man insisted
on having his interest promptly, and
she incurred another debt to pay him
his interest. She continued to play
the losing game until six months later
she was desperate. After worry over
the deception and of the conse-
Quences she sobbed out the. whole
tale on her husbands shoulder. and
he took sixty dollars and paid up her
Indebtedness for the twenty dollars
worth of pretty clothes she had pur-
chased.
1t is hard thing for a young wom-
an in poor circumstances to see other
women gaily dressed and not feel
pang of envy. But the woman will
be much more happy that lives on her
allowance. be ii large or small, and
dresses neatly if not extravagantly,
keeping her heart free and her soul
clear of deception. =

Robert Fl. Miller.

Robert H. Miller, who died last
month at Liberty, Mo-. had a record
of public service in one community
which comes to few men. 1t is not
to be inferred from this statement
that Mr.. Miller held public ofice-per.
formed that routine of petty tasks at a
stated stipend for a long period of
years, and performed them faithfully
mot az all.
Mr.. Miller was an editor This state.
ment conveys no special significance
in itself, for it is not every editor who
may be truthfully called a public sery-
ant or public benefactor. But Mr..
Miller seems to have had what the
idealist would designate as true con-
ception Of the EDITORS obligation TO
the public-and. in quiet uniform
way, he lived up to that ideal.
The biography of this editor, puo-
lished in the paper which he establish
ed in 1916, contains no specific in
stances in which he demonstrated his
fealty to the community which was
his home for sixey-five years. But,
reading between the lines of that biog-
raphy, it is not hard to discern that
he measured up to his opportunities
that he stood behind every movement
for the betterment of his home town
in the long years which were his as
an editor.
The qualiti,s which went to make
for Mr.. Miller name that will long
live after him are Summarized by one
who was a neighbor for more than
half a century.
I'm estimating the character of Mr..
Miller, one must not forget a combina-
tion in him of very high qualities.
These were the highest integrity,
strong sense of justice, fine courage,
an unusual call to duty, deep tender
ness Of feeling, great reverence for
the past, earnest devotion to princi--
PIE, lofty conception OF the 0bllga-
tions of friend hip-all under control
of strong, massive common sense"
What splendid combina, ton of
Qualities in the character of any man,
but what an asset for the upbuilding
OF a community when one in which
they are manifest holds power and in
fiuence as an editor. Highest integ-.
rity," strong sense Of Justice" and
their corollary, fine courage" gov
erned by these principles, and with
opportunity to lead in a community
for period extending through life
time. as Mr.. Miller had, it is small
wonder that he is missed and mourn
ed in Liberty.

HIeeINsvILLE INVESTS IN ROAD
Missouri Town Buys $4,000 Worth of
Stock in Cross.State Line.

Missouri Town Buys $4,000 Worth Of
Stock in cross-State Line.
Higginsville, Mo-, fifty miles this
side of Kansas City, and having only
$500 inhabitants, has purchased $40
900 worth of common stock in the
proposed Kansas City and St. Louis
Electric Railway which is to pass
through that town. The new railway
company has already acquired by op-
tions and cash purchases, 1000 acres
of coal lands near Higginsville.
According to Sam ]. Kleinschmidt,
a resident of Higginsville and a STOCK
holder in the new line, people of his
community have great faith in the
promoters of the line.
"One of our best business men," he
said, "is a director in the company.
OF course, he may be mistaken in his
opinion of the promoters, but l be-
lieve the road will be built, if not by
this company, then by some other"
Mr.: Kleinschmidt said further that
the Mckinley Interurban System may
also be interested in the cross-Mis-
souri, line. He believes that the Nc
Kinley Company had such an idea in
mind when it built the Mckinley
Bridge over the Mississippi River at
st. Louis. Heretofore the Mckinley
System has operated exclusively in
Illinois. st. Louis is the only Missouri
city on It's line.

The young journalist of today may
derive much of value from the life OF
Robert H. Miller. His field of activity
was more circumscribed, perhaps
than that pictured in the ambi
tions of the coliege-bred journal
ist of this modern period, yet in that
field he played his part well and lived
a life worth while.
In the petty details of his business
life his biography notes that he was
exact, methodical, painstaking. This
trait may seem of small moment, yet
doubtless it is the foundation of the
success which came to him in a finan-
cial way. 1t is, too, characteristic
conspicuously lacking in the greater
number of the country editors of yes
terday-Mr. Miller's contemporaries
land in many OF those of today. Yet
the new journalist must follow Mr..
Miller's lead in this respect If he is to
succeed. F. w. c.

PROHIBITS CONSOLIDATION.
The Missouri School Statutes Plain
On This Subject.

The question, Can rural school
districts consolidate by doing away
with the little one-room schools and
transporting children to and from
schools in wagons?' has been asked
The answer is NO. The laws OF Mis-
souri, do not permit the use of public
school money in this way. This Is
possible in some states. but not in
Missouri.
The laws of Missouri do permit
the consolidation for the purpose OF
central high schools
where they now are. adv

There is always opportunity. for. the
citizen to become a factor of conse
quence in the upbuilding of any com
munity. There is always a call fol-
men of character to give support and
council in public affairs. The problem
is to enlist the citizens in the things
that concern his community. to induce
him to interest himself in things
which have no direct bearing, perhaps,
on immediate personal affairs.
To the editor. in greater degree
than to any other citizen, is given
power to answer this call for service.
Optimistic he must be. and ready to
hear practical part in the reforms
or improvements he advocates. Mr..
Miller seems to have been this stamp
of an editor-citizen.
And, in the end, this constructive life
followed by Mr.. Miller seems to have
brought him not only the respect and
confidence of his neighbors, which is
real success, but also reward in a
large degree in the other measure of
success-wealth in property and dol
lars.
