T. BERRY SMITH.
EVERY AUDRAIN COUNTY
TEACHER KNOWS HIM.
Writes a Poem Dedicated to All
Lovers of Good Roads.


song lust off the press, words and
music by Prof. T. Berry Smith of
Central College. The song is in
commemoration of the opening of
tbe Cross-State Highway and has
subtitle, "Boonslick--Santa Fe
Trail" 1t is dedicated to all
lovers of good roads.
The new song has an interest
ing historical foreword and direc-
tory of towns and colleges touch
ed bv the Cross-State Highway.
"In strip of country sixty
miles wide and two hundred and |
fifty miles long" says Professor
Smith, embracing the windings
Of the Missouri River across the
state, is to be found perhaps the
most remarkable aggregation of
educational and eleemosynary in
stitutions in the world. The rea-
son for this is not far to seek. In
the first half of the last century
the Missouri River was the great
artery of commerce and travel
from st. Louis westward. Steam
boats carried freight and passen-
gers and deposited them at
various landings, thence trans
portation by wagon and stage
coach was made inland to county
capitals and other towns in con-
tiguous territory.
every naturally these towns
became seats of denominations
colleges and state educational
and eleemosynary establishments
"lt is eminently appropriate
that the old trails-the Daniel
Boon and Santa Fe--should be re-
Jnvenated and made into one
great, contiguous highway across
the state, and that the pioneer
crnters of civilization be linked
together by that highway, a
Jeweled strand upon the bosom of
onr imperial commonwealth.
Other cross-state highways
may be built but none of them
will ever have the distinction that
this one has of being called "The
College Route
On the directory of the towns
and colleges prepared by Profes-
Sor Smith are st. Louis, with
Washington and st. Louis Uni
verSities; st. Charles, with st.
Charles Military and Linden

made the nominations, and there is no

that Taggart's successor will be w. H.
