THE WOMAN'S PART.

Women of the United States are
making wonderful strides toward the
goal of enfranchisement. At the ma.
tional election held Tuesday woman
was by no means a silent spectator
Her vote represented a small fraction
of the total vote of the country, but
it was an influential factor in the
states which allow her the right OF
suffrage.
The total number of women who
had the right to vote in the election
just past was 100000. Of course but
small number of this total availed
themselves of the privilege. How
ever. there were 23,36O,OOO males in
the United States and scarcely 60 per
cent of this number took advantage
of the privilege of suffrage.
1t is extremely possible that many
more states will have allowed woman
the right to vote before the next ma
tional election in 1916. 1t will be
more true by this time that women
will vote less as a sex. The novelty
will have worn off. Political proba-
bilities will then be less discussed
from the standpoint of the sex of the
voters. Woman will then be better
equipped to interest man in the So
cial questions which concern the home
and family life of the nation and
bring him to a clearer understanding
Of his political responsibilities, if the
sanguine hopes of woman suffrage
supporter come true

THIS A COSMOPOLITAN WARDROBE
Exhibits In Social Museum Would Clothe
Persons From All Four Corners
Of The Earth.

Many students spend four years al
the University, many strangers visi
the University here, and never see
any or all of the museums and ex.
hibits that the University has. There
are three museums, the social, the
geological and the archaeological and
art.
Down in the basement of Academic
Hall, in the northwest corner, near
where the cadets keep their rifles, is
a room filled with enough relics and
curios of the past to make anyone
want to spend whole day just look
| ing at them and thinking of the peo-
pie who made and used such things.
So that you can't miss it if You hap
pen to get near it, the door is la
beled, Social Museum-anthropol-
ogy, ethnology and social economy"
But the exhibit is of interest to others
as well as those interested in the So
cial sciences.
On either side of the door is a big
blue post, surmounted by an ugly
wooden image. Over the door is a
huge, unreal bird head with a beak
about three feet long. These came
from the door of a house of some
Alaska Indian of the Thlinkit tribe,
and were donated to the exhibit by
Governor John G. Brady of Alaska
In a case near are fur moccasin-
boots, mems. wOmen's and children's
sizes; a fur coat made of great
number of small skins; carved canoe
paddles and large spoon about
three feet long, carved from wood
All these were made by the Thlinkit
Indians in Alaska.
There is also a Chinese exhibit. in
which is a scroll worked on velvet
In another case are Mexican curios-
broadbrimmed hat, coat of buck
skin, and some hand embroidery.
There is Porto Rican exhibit, some
hammered copper and brass vessels
from Russia as well as a big fur
coat, and there are big snow shoes,
baskets and arrow heads from the
Siwash Indians.
Here is table scarf, hand woven
and hand embroidered, made by Ia
bitha T. Embry in 1S41, probably at
Boonville. The design is complicated
and must have taken a long time to
work out. The maker has also
worked her name and the date into
the scarf.
Over here is case full of dolls.

out of the usual run of things for

Viewpoints
On Roofing.

Editor the Missourian: The edi-
torial, "Can Roofing VIM" printed in
the University Missourian last Mon
day, quoting President Taft as saying
that school yells are one of the abb
surdities of colleges today, was
about as correct as it would be to
say that he was elected at the polls
Tuesday. The writer was probably a
freshmn or had never been to foot
ball game before.
1t is a bold stand, indeed, for an
unheard-of writer to says that root
ing does not help a team when men
who are at the head of large univer-
stiles go before their students and
urge it. Is it the beginning of a new
era of "anti-rooting" college football
and Missouri leading? Has this
one man started something that will
tend to break down what great teach
ers, professors, coaches and univer-
sity presidents have been years try
ing to establish?
The students in the University of
Missouri are known as "stayers" and
not as "quitters". 1t came through
their support of the Tigers during the
Ames game. One week later the
team whipped Oklahoma. Two weeks
later the same team that Ames de-
feated came back and fought a team
far superior to the Aggies to a stand

trywOmen of Belgium at different
times. Nearly every one has ar
apron, and caps, kerchiefs and hoods
are frequently their head dresses
Some of the dolls have evidently got
tired standing there in the case SC
long, and have fallen over a little Sc
that they can lean on each other and
be more comfortable. Here is another
that seems to be a nun, by her Sc
verely plain dress, and her eyes cast
upward to shut out from her view
the gay costumes of her sisters.
If any girl wants to get even with
the man that makes fun of women s
hats, she might take him to the So
cial Museum and show him the va
rious styles of hats worn by men in
well, other places than the United
States. There are straw hats, fur
hats and feather hats, hats three
feet wide, hats one foot wide, hats
flattened out like toadstool and hats
shaped like the pictures of mountains
when you first began to make maps
in the geography class. Colors are
not lacking either.
Down here in another case is an
old saddle, with a braided bride and
lariat hanging on the wooden, nail
studded pOmmel. A rawhide whip is
also lying near. Next to this is a
complete suit of clothes, perhaps a
dress suit, for the American Indian.
1t is made of skins. There are enough
moccasins there for the whole family,
and almost pipe apiece. In an
other case is a bow, some arrows and
a belt. Here are three model canoes,
made of skins and bark, and one COW
cred over all but the place for the
paddler to sit in.
There are hundreds of arrow heads,
stone hammers, rude stone bowls,
knives, spear heads, mortars, toma-
hawks and other stone implements of
the early history of this continent.
There is also a collection of stone
implements from Europe
Two Japanese fishing boats, with
their queer sails and shape, fully
equipped, are hanging overhead. I'm
derneath are examples of early pot
terry, pipe bowls and huge clubs and
instruments of war.
South and southwest of Columbia
are two mounds from which many in
teresting things have been taken and
placed in this museum There are

heads, pipes, pottery and pieces of

We wish We had a barrel of ink,

start our brain a-going round, its
wheels would soon be buzzin'. We
wish we had a million thoughts and
wrote verse like the dickens about
the peaceful bossy cows, the farm

poet would come long who wouldn't
stop nor stumble; who when he
raised his voice in song would make
the mountains rumble. We wish he'd
open up his heart and write for us
some pages that wouldn't mention
birds nor sky nor girls of by-gone
ages. We do not care to have our
minds improved nor elevated; philos-
ophy and sermons pall-for them our
state is stated. In short we are a
lowbrow; who knows it. doesn't
bother. We've had enough the old

for Shelley, Keats nor Byron; too

they quickly tire one. But would

In Other Public Service.

Editor the Missourian: While the
chief duty of University instructors is
of course. to the students who attend
the University, it appears to us that
they should, whenever possible with
out neglect to this chief duty, under.
take public service in other lines.

the promotion of peace, and Prof. H.

PROFESSOR WILSON, PRESIDENT.

For the first time, college profess
sor has been elected to the Presidency
of the United States. Woodrow Will
son has spent the greater part of his
life at the teachers desk, lecturing
and serving knowledge to young
Americans He is distinctly college
professor, learned. broad-minded,
great-hearted. He is so good pro-
fessor, in fact, that he has been presi-
dent of a leading American univer-
sity and is now the governor of his
state. His PROFESSIONAL dignity, cul
ture and administrative ability placed
him in line to serve and to make a
state This he did. The old New
Jersey has been replaced by a new.
Its government is rid of much of the
graft that before held sway. Pro-
gress is evident on every hand.
There are some advantages in be-
ing a college professor. 1t paid
Woodrow Wilson well. 1t trained
him for politics and the Presidency.
He learned the American people in
the school room: not from books but
81, IS fh0 hNy nd ri G
he met there. Human nature in all
its varied forms is to be found in
college halls, and there it can be
studied best. Continual contact with
developing manhood and womanhood
reveals many characteristics and
ideas, which go to make up the voice
and heart of a nation.
Every university is a republic on
a small plan. The man at its head
must be fair-minded, broad of under
standing and appreciation, judicious
and progressive. He must know his
subjects and adapt his administration
to their needs and best interests. AS
president of Princeton University,
Woodrow Wilson was success, be-
cause he did all this; because he was
a man of this character. In his cam
paign for governor, he went before
the people with a knowledge of hu-
man nature; he knew their thoughts
and their desires. His geniality and
sincerity reached their hearts; his
interest in the common good and his
record of faithful service won their
confidence. With the same appeals,
Mr.. Wilson went before the people of
the nation. He was elected by the
largest majority ever received by a
Democratic Presidential candidate,
and by one of the largest votes ever
given a man running for the nations
highest Office.
The people of the United States are
willing to entrust the guidance of the !
nation to a college professor; that is,
to one so competent as Woodrow i
Wilson.
