WARM ARCTIC WEATHER.

An engineer now says it is possible
to turn the Gulf Stream along the
coast of Labrador and do away with
the extreme cold weather there. He
even thinks he might be able to warm
up the Arctic circle a bit.
The engineer says the warm cur
rent could be turned toward the coast
by building a great jetty in the shall
lows of Newfoundland to defect the
warm stream from it's present course.
The Gulf Stream would be strong
enough he says, to turn aside the cold
Labrador current that now hugs the
shore.
But while they are putting in this
heating plant for the Eskimos. why
not have it arranged so that the hot
water can be turned out in the sum-
mer and the cold current brought back
to it's old place? This would make it
more comfortable for the polar bears
in summer. 1t would also keep the
Eskimo's winter-weight fur suit from
getting bothersome.

BASEBALL.

If any one of the Presidential can
didates thinks he is the greatest at
traction in the United States this
week he is not wise enough man
to be our President If the Senate
investigating committee has ever a
remote idea that it's searchlight ma
nipulations are the big news of the
week, the members are too short
sighted to be in Congress. If there
is anything new to be said on the
h c. l. the agitator who has it
to say will prove his soundness of
judgment if he keeps silent until af-
ter October 13 at least.
All of these subjects are of great
importance There are others. too,
such as the Balkan War, Nicaraguan
affairs, more dynamite charges and
the like But the people won't miss
them if they are not on the first page
this week Baseball is the whole show
just now, from the prima donna down
to the resin on the violinist's bow.
What's the scorer" is the most ur-
gent question to be answered these
days.
The game is popular with Ameri-
cans because it is fair, clean sport.
1t is able to hold the attention and
interest of a great nation of rushing,
busy people because it has such great
opportunities for the display of indi-
vidual and organized skill. The game
is continually growing in favor in the
country because of the increasing
demand made for strict morals among
the professional players. Much has
been added to the sport by the great
number of college men who have be-
come players of national reputation
The United States leads the world
in many things. There are so many
in fact that we are apt to think We
lead in everything When it is de-
cided which is the best baseball team
in this country there are never any
contests to be played with other coun.
try. We always have the champions
here.

THE BOYS TROUBLES.

Fall is here with a riot of color and
resplendent beauty. Falling leaves OF
many blending shades bespatter our
greenswards. The sun sinks less re-
luctant into his golden depths. Sum-
mer beauties are slipping away.
Everywhere is the activity of dlssolu-
ton. Animal life is preparing for the
cold months to come.
But the most disconsolate figure of
all is the small boy with his rake.
Lawnmowers are no more. He
thought his troubles had ended. Now
he finds they've begun again.

THE NEW ALUMNI MAGAZINE.
What The Missouri Alumnus Is Doing to Keep
the 'Old Grad'' in Touch With the Uulli-
versity-Class Reunions Planned

For the first time in its history the
University of Missouri has magazine
published monthly in the interests of
the "old grads"
There have been other alumni pub
locations heretofore. but they have
been published quarterly, and were
not permanent institutions. The pur-
pose of the present missouri Alum
nus" is to give the old students a
bright, newsy magazine, to publish
accounts of things now going on at
the University, to help the alumni keep
in touch with one another, and to
plan and arrange for class reunions.
In connection with the magazine,
there will be published this year an
alumni directory.
This directory also will follow a
new plan in it's arrangement. In
stead of having the names of the
alumni arranged in alphabetical or
der only, as has been done formerly.
they will be printed in three ways.
The names will be listed alphabetical
ly. the names of all those in the same
classes will be placed together, and
the names of those living in the same
towns and states now will be together.
This will form a much more complete
and convenient index for the use of
former students who are looking for
their old school mates.
The University has 4.5OO living
alumni scattered over the United
States. Canada and foreign countries.
More are now living in Oklahoma than
in any other state outside of Missouri.
Texas has the next largest number.
The response of these former stu
dents to the plan of the new maya
zine has been surprisingly ready. In
the first number are printed letters
received by the editor from those who
have heard of the new publication
with interest. Some of them are al
most pathetic in the eagerness with
which they welcome a reminder of
their college life, and of those who
went to class with them daily for
four years.
81 am delighted with your first num-
ber," writes a man who received his
degree from the University forty-one
years ago. 81 love to hear about the
old boys, yes. and the girls, too"
Another, a member of the class of
lS47. sends a request for the maga-
zine. He still has an interest and af-
fection for an institution he attended
sixty-five years ago.
Zone surprising thing about the
letters that have been coming in,"
said H. E. Ridings. secretary of the
Alumni Association and managing ed
itor of the new magazine, lis that
the older graduates respond SO much
more cordially than those who have
only been away from the University
for one or two years. We have had
many more letters in proportion from
those who have been away for five
years or more. than we have had from
the more recent graduates. l don't
know why it is, unless that the aver
age student, on leaving the Univer-
sity, doesn't begin to appreciate fully
the time he spent here till he has been
gone for several years. One man
who has been away from here for
fifteen years writes that reading of
so many old friends in the 'Alumnus'
was better than a letter from home "

nus" is the organization of the differ
ent classes, to establish class reun-
ions on a more practical basis. The
plans on which it is hoped to hold the
reunions will bring together not only
all those who were in the same class,
but many of those who were in diff
ferent classes, but in the University
at the same time. For instance, the
classes of 1890 to 1895 will meet at
the same time. The next reunion
would include those from 1891 to
1896, bringing in another group each
time. The first class planning to
hold reunion under the new method
is the class of 1868, which will have
its reunion in June, 1913. DR.. w. G.
Bek, formerly instructor in the Ger
man department of the University of
Missouri, and now professor of Ger
man in the University of North Da-
kota, is secretary of this class, and
has the reunion in charge
I'VE think the new plan a much
more practicable one than the old
way of the alumnus just coming back
to the University in haphazard fash
ion. without any warning. and ex-
pecting to meet lot of his old
friends" said Mr.. Rulings. OF course
he went away disappointed, more Of
ten than not. You see. while mans &C
quaintance in the University really
extends over the classes of seven
years. it is possible for him to come
back here. and unless he knows that
others whom he knew are coming, too.
to meet hardly an acquaintance. We
expect the new plan to be a success
full one. and benefit and pleasure to
the alumni"
Included in the general plan of re-
unions, is the NJ mems reunion,
which is being planned by Prof. c. l..
Brewer. This year all the old stu
dents who have won Ms in the Uni
versity will meet in Columbia at the
Nebraska game. A letter has been
received from a man who played on
the first Tiger team. before the plan
of giving letters in athletics was be-
gun. He wants to know if he will be
allowed to have his letter now. And
he will probably get it.
Mr. Rulings, the managing editor
of the "Alumnus," is graduate OF
the University, in the College of Arts
and Science and in the School of
Journalism. He has been in newspa-
per work outside of the University.
! Speaking of the plan to admit all
former students. whether graduates
or not. to membership in the Alumni
Association. Mr.. Ridings said: This
plan should. if adopted, prove of large
value to the students and to the Uni
versity. Among local organizations
of alumni in cities they have long
ceased to recognize any difference
between graduate and non-graduate
Judging from the general feeling.
they will also be admitted to the gen.
eral association at the next meeting,
in June. 1913. Many former students
are as much interested in Missouri
and Missouri men and women as the
ones who received degrees. And, af-
ter all, if it weren't for the sheepskin
/ and the University records, it would
! be difficult to distinguish between
/ the graduate and the former student
/ in most cases. We are all merely
people" Med.

Primaries Worth While?

Very many citizens have begun to
wonder how long the voters will con-
sent to SO much politics as are now
ordained by our laws; and are also
specializing as to whether attendance
on the primaries is to continue even so
large as at present, or whether in
creasing numbers of the voters will
not become weary Of the we'll doing
that is demanded of them. 1t does
not yet appear that the results
achieved in the primaries offer any
clear advantage over those that We're
obtained under the old-time method of
procedure. The cost of the new deal
is very large, both to the state and the
aspirants, and it is still true that the
rich man has an advantage, perhaps
greater than used to be the CASE
