THE NEW BOOKS.
A New History.

European Beginnings of American
History" is the subject of recent
book BY Alice NJ. Atkinson dealing
with the development of European
culture as a background for an under
standing of our own history. She has
made English history the basis of her
narrative without writing history of
England except incidentally. She has
used the history of England as a
mirror in which can be seen reflected
the whole development of the western
world. A complete history of the dark
ages. conquests, discoveries. wars, re-
ligions, and other phases contributing
to general culture and it's effect on
the new world has been dealt with
without use of any meaningless for
mdlas which invite mere memorizing

For College Students.

From School Through College," by
Henry Parks Wright. is truly book
for every college student to read. 1t
is full OF helpful suggestions based on
personal observations of student life
by the author. Beginning with the
bridge between school and college, the
author goes through each step of a
students life. He first points out the
opportunities offered by a college ed
ucation, then shows it's purposes. FL
nally he shows the best means to ac-
complish the purpose in view and
puts the examples in a simple, clear
college" way. 1t is a word from a
fellow student-not from a professor.

EQUAL SUFFRAGE IN THE WEST.

In the leading article of the August
issue Of The Westerner, THE Woman
Vote in the West: A New Force in
Politics." Miss Adella NJ. Parker
makes the statement: Whatever good
can come to the West through giving
women a vote will be heartily well
coined by women all over the world,
for to Western America is due that
first break with traditions which made
women the political equals of men.
Traditions die hard in the East and
for practical achievements in the suf-
frage movement one must look to the
Western states.
East of the Mississippi River, Rhode
Island and Massachusetts have sub
mitted the question to the voters, and
on September 3 last, Ohio voted
against equal suffrage by a majority
of $4,000, despite vigorous and de-
termind campaign by the women. The
failure was ascribed by them to in
difference of the voters and to the
efforts of the liquor forces. There
are only about half a dozen states
west of the Mississippi which have not
at one time or another submitted the
question to the voters.
At present women have secured the
ballot in six states-California, Wyom-
ing, Idaho, Washington, Utah and Col
Orado.
The question of suffrage is to be
submitted at the November election
in four states-Nevada, Arizona, Kan
sas and Wisconsin.
In Kansas Governor Stubs is lend
ing his aid to the movement, and has
furnished both room and telephones
for headquarters at Kansas City. Fifty
thousand women have officially asked
for the ballot They are members OF
organizations which have passed reso-
lutiOns for equal suffrage. October
Is was Suffrage Sunday in Kansas and
in at least one church in each town
either suffrage sermon was deliv-
cred or some mention made of the
subject. In almost every large town
and in many smaller ones local papers
are issuing suffrage editions.
No effort has been neglected in Wis
consin to insure success and the
women are confident of victory Dr.

University Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1908-1916, 1912-10-16
PHI MI ALPHA.

Phi Mu Alpha, the musical frateg-
nifty of the University of Missouri, is
an organization with a good work
Perhaps Columbia does not appreciate
it's efforts fully.
Persons living in towns and small
cities usually do not hear the highest
class music Such entertainments are
too expensive to be given anywhere
but in the large communities. Only
few can afford to 60 to the cities
for these concerts.
Phi Mu Alpha brings the best music
to Columbia. This year six concerts
have been arranged. Neither Kansas
City, nor St. Louis, nor other cities
will hear better than these Seats for
these entertainments when given in
the cities usually cost from one to
three dollars. You may go to the
same concert in Columbia for 80 cents.
A little saving here and there of
money foolishly spent would buy a
Phi Mu Alpha season ticket. A slight
cutting down on cigars or candy for
a while will do it,
1t would be hard to estimate the
value of the return on the invest
ment. Such entertainments are of un-
doubted uplifting power. In these
days of the plague of boarding house
ragtime it is fine thing to hear good
music as often as possible

BADNESS AND FASHION

The man with a bald head no more
needs to feel ashamed. Badness. ac-
cording to a Paris specialist, is not
only a sign of intellectually but il
also is the growing fashion of the
race.
The University of Missouri and
other educational institutions of the
land, according to this scientist, are
contributing daily to the ranks of the
bald He solemnly AYERS that as man
advances in the realm of thought the
more naked he will become on the
top of his head And woman is not
exempt in this general scheme Two
hundred years hence. he declares
there will be no such monstrosity as
the long-haired man, and 500 years
hence there will be scarcely hair
on any woman's head.
So all We that are afflicted" need
not be ashamed. Glory in your glist-
ening domes. They signify intelli-
gence. They are the forerunners OF
fashion.

The Reform Of Legal Procedure.

THE cornerstone of this republic
as of all free Governments. is respect
for and obdience to the law" This
quotation from Theodore Roosevelt is
made the keynote of book for law
yers written by Moorefield Storey. an
eX-President of the American Bar AS
sociation. Clearly. forcibly and en-
tertainingly Mr.. Storey sets forth the
duty and responsibilities of the law
yer in bringing criminals to justice
and justice to criminals.
There is a loss of confidence in
the court" he says, "but it is not
due to corruption, negligence or lazi-
ness of the lawyers but chiefly to the
system against which it is impossible
for an earnest prosecutor and an eff
cient judge to struggle
Mr.. Storey deals with the delays so
often Occasioned before and during
trials. He deems them unnecessary
and suggests as remedies "a higher
standard of professional fidelity,
which shall eliminate groundless suits
and improper defenses. the imposition
of substantial costs on clients or
counsel in proper cases, a keener pro-
fessional conscience which shall over
come the temptation to procrastinate,
and the removal of certain classts OF
litigation from the courts by legisla-
ton" The delay in the appellate
courts is also dealt with and all these
evils in the administration of civil
and criminal law are presented to the
lawyer reader with wise suggestions
of reform.
The substance of this book was de-
livered as lectures before the Yale
Law School in 1911.

Suffrage Association and a most pop
ular and eloquent speaker, has just
given a series of talks in the small
cities of the state. Her last appear
ance was at Milwaukee, where she
gave a short address at a theater be-
tween the acts Of "The Butterfly on
the Wheel" She illustrated from the
play the position that woman has oc-
cupied and that which suffragists
hope to see her hold. 1t is said that
Doctor Shaw received more applause
than the actors. Mrs. Robert NJ. La
Toilette has just given a week of her
services.
Last summer Mrs. Catherine Waugh
McCulloch, lawyer and suffrage work
er in Chicago. with her husband. also
an enthusiastic suffragist, toured the
small towns of Wisconsin in an auto
mobile at their own expense. DR..
Anna Blount, also of Chicago, went
from town to town along the rivers in
a motor boat making speeches on
street corners and in halls.
Arizona suffrage workers congratu-
late themselves upon the fact that all
the political parties have incorporated
an equal suffrage plank in their plat
forms. The papers, the men on the
streets and the women generally ex-
pect success.
Chicago, which has been for several
years a training school for suffrage
speakers through it's many organiza-
tions and different methods of activity
in the work of promoting equal rights,
has generally helped in almost all of
the state campaigns, sending speak
ers even as far as California. The
work in Illinois. however. has been
discouraging, though no suffragist is
willing to admit she is discouraged.
Several attempts to pass bills through
the legislature have failed as well as
two attempt to put the subject directly
before the electors.
Under the referendum an effort was
made last summer to secure the sig
natures of ten per cent. 10000. of the
registered voters of the state who
were willing to have suffrage submit
ted at the November election. For
lack of sufficient workers only 10000
names were secured Undoubtedly. a
renewed effort will be made to secure
the passage of bill by the next State
Legislature. E.R.J.

WAR.

War clouds again hover in the East.
The Balkan States have risen in arms
against Turkey. Five hundred thous-
and men are on their way to battle,
and soon the press will tell the story
of conflict and death. In the midst
of great agitation for worldwide
peace comes the news of wars and
rumors of war. Surely this does not
look like peace on earth.
Former President Charles W. Eliot
Of Harvard has just returned from a
tour of the world. He declares that he
cannot see that the nations are taking
very seriously to worldwide peace.
Just now certain nations of Europe
are very much worried over the in
creasing navies of certain other ma
tons. The growing military suprem-
acy of Germany is alarming all
Europe. Great Britain seems to be
facing a great crisis. AS yet peace
does not seem to be at hand.
With war in five minor European
countries and with the great nations
straining every resource to build
navies, the hope for worldwide peace
is not very great. But maybe these
latest wars are the dying gasps OF the

Would Extend Simplified Spelling.

The University library has just re-
ceived more pamphlets on simplified
spelling. showing the growth of the
movement since the organization OF
the Simplified Spelling Board in 1906
This pamphlet is called 1.-The Simpli-
fication of English Spelling" The
board says it desires to call attention
to defects. to urge more uniformity,
and to obtain the general adoption of
the 300 reformed words now used by
Theodore Roosevelt, and it says,
twenty thousand other persons.

Letter to Public from President of Re.

To the Editor of The Missourian:

To the Editor of The MiSSOurian:
Permit me as loyal and dthus-:
iastic citizen of our good town to
call the attention of Columbians to
an effort which hitherto has not been
appreciated as it should. Since 1907.
the Phi Mu Alpha musical association
has been working to place Columbia
on the map musically. It's avowed
purpose is to create a fine cultural at
mOsphere in our town and in it's en-
deavor it has spared neither money.
time nor energy. The men composing
the group are dead in earnest in the
promotion of their ideal They are
working for the love of the cause and
all they ask in return is a welcome
and a hearty cooperation. And they
are entitled to this support inasmuch
as the success of their effort means
our success. We merchants are the
recipients Of the fine advertising that
this town receives. The families
drawn to Columbia by the opportun-
ity of giving their sons and daughters
besides book-learning also the fine
effects and influence of a cultural en-
vironment mean an asset to this town
which every merchant should at once
appreciate. By heartily supporting
the efforts of Phi Mu Alpha to estab-
lish high class musical attractions
here, a series of annual concerts
which will be looked forward to as
certainly and fixedly as one looks for
ward to autumn. spring. summer. and
winter,-by their support the mer-
chants of this town are helping them
selves and encouraging a Greater,
more Beautiful Columbia. Encourage
Phi Mu Alpha! 1t deserves your loyal
support.
Yours for a Great Columbia,
