STATE PRIDE DEVELOPS HERE
President Hill Tells Ad Club to Spread
II Abroad.

Development of a state pride and a
pride in the University was the work
pointed out by President A. Ross Hill
for the Ad Club to do, in his talk to
the club at the Y. NJ. c. A. Building
last night. President Hill told of
cases of teachers within the state who
urged high school graduates to go to
schools in other states. He said that
MANY students and other persons have
the idea that certain universities are
great because they have had great
reputation in the past. This ignorance
on the part of Missourians has caused
many to go to schools in other states
which are really inferior to the Uni
versity of Missouri. The University,
he said, is the one unifying influence,
that will develop state pride in
Missouri. He urged the members OF
the club to work in their own COM
munities to acqaint the people with
what the University really is so that
they will have a greater appreciation
of it's work.
President Hill spoke of students
who growl about various things. An
example of this, he said. was the crit
icism that is made of all the work for
beautifying the campus. This is done,
he said. by those who do not under
stand what the plans are that are be-
ing worked out.
