Some New Spring Dishes

This is the time of year when the
housewife delights in having guests.
There is a large variety of vegeta-
bles to choose from and yet they have
not been on the market long enough
for anyone to get tired of them.
Texas tomatoes have been selling
for at least six weeks. although they
were cheaper a week ago than they
are now. They sold at first for %
cents a pound Last week they came
down to 12 1-2 cents and now they
have gone up again to Il 1-2 cents.
One of the newest tomato dishes is
frozen salad. Eight fine, ripe firm
tomatoes are peeled and chopped fine.

sugar and three drops of onion juice.

ture is put into mould, packed in
ice and salt and left to stand sever
al hours to ripen. This is served on
bed of lettuce leaves with mounds
of thick dressing dotted over it.

the market for about four weeks
and have been reduced from 1-3 to
6 cents a pound. Here is delicious
cabbage salad: Chop a small white
sweet cabbage or shred it. and put in
to pan of cold water for three hours

drain thoroughly, and lightly toss
together with one cupful of pimien-
tos shredded fine and One-half cup
full of Bermuda onions sliced just
as thin as possible. Mix all these
together with cream mayOnnaise and
serve in the small cabbage leaves
near the heart, which are much like
small deep bowls. This salad is
particularly well suited to be served
with fish.

COLUMBIA SHOULD VOTE DRY.

The man who thinks i'll of himself
need not be surprised if others share
his opinion. The man who thinks
well of himself has gone long way
toward establishing. himself in the
opinion of others. 1t is the same way
with towns.
Towns in Missouri are being clas-
sified these days as wet or dry. When
you hear someone say, "Oh, that is
a wet town." or THAT is an open
town. you Immediately decide that
the place is a free, easy going COM
munity where morals are lax and
business is placed above the home.
Men do not care to take their fami-
lies to live in a town of that type.
One naturally Identifies a school
town or a church town with the dry
community. These conditions are
supposed to go together. To ma
jority of persons. the term, "wet
town, is one of reprOach. That a
town of schools and churches should
vote wet, appeals to the average per-
son as near-sacrilege.
Columbia depends largely upon
the esteem of the people of Missouri
1t has this esteem nOw-it did no,
have it back in the days of the sa
looms. Even many men identified
with liquor interests feel that Co
lumbia should bar saloons. This wa!
shown when the five-mile bill wa'
pending before the legislature. There
is a sentiment not only in Missouri
but over the United States that sa
looms are not desirable in schOO
towns. Columbia should look be
yond the city limits when considering
the saloon question.

terms of money the debt is consider
able. But there are some things not
valued in terms of money. The debt
is not burdensome.' Its payment is
pleasurable and not vexatiOus. The
University does not expect all its
graduates to go to Congress, or to
reflect glory on the school in an
equally pronounced way. 1t does ex-
pect it's graduates to become worthy
citizens, men and women who count
in their communities. The state
needs such men and women. 1t rec
ognizes this need in its appropria-
tions to the state schools. The alum
nus who stands we'll in his cOmmu-
nifty has an influence to WELD for
his school. His work counts. 1t is
through the efforts of the alumni
that the University of Missouri is
enabled to carry on its work for
the upbuilding of the state.

The Missouri Bible College

, the state school necessarily confined
itself. The matter was taken up at
the next convention of the brother
hood, and the College was formally
opened within a few months, in jan
uary. 1896.
At first the College, having no
building of it's own, held classes in
the Sunday school room of the
Christian church. The present build
ing facing the University with which
the college co-operates. is called
Lowry Hall because of gifts made to
the institution by b. F. Lowry and
Miss Eliza Lowry of Columbia. The
building is worth $4,000.
r. A. Long, of Kansas City, a
"capitaliZer of Christianity" offered
to give the college an endowment of
! $500 if the same amount could be
raised in the state for the work. The
terms were complied with, and the
Bible College was enabled to increase
its faculty and add new courses to its
curriculum.
The Christian Church supports two

at the University of Oregon, and

The feeling of a need for religious
instruction of some kind in connec-
tiOn with state and secular institu-
tions is not new. When Thomas JEFF

ginia. he advised the founding by the
different churches of chairs of Di-
vinity in the same town, to remedy
the defect in an institution profess
sing to give instruction in all useful

offered no theological training, his
university had been called an insti-
tuition. mot merely of no religion
but against all religion" jefferson s
plan was. 'by bringing the sects to-
gether and mixing them with the
mass of other students, to soften
their asperities. liberalize and neu-
tralize their predjudice and make the
general religion. a religion of peace
reason and neutrality"
Jefferson's day was a day of sects
which did not care to cooperate. and
his plan was not carried out.
The Bible College of Missouri
founded in 1896. was designed to fill
the need of which Jefferson spoke
and which had been felt with in
creasing force for several years
among the members of the Disciples
of Christ living in Missouri. In the
State University, at that time. one
fourth of the whole attendance was
from homes of members of the
Christian Church. In addition, there

THE PLEASURE IN FLOWERS.

THE PLEASURE IN FLOWERS.
"In Eastern lands they talk in flow
And they tell on garland their
loves and cares.
Each blossom that blooms in their
garden bowers,
On its leaves a mystic language
bears"
Nothing gives more joy than oulti-
walton of flowers. But some people
tiOn to the growing of flowers. AS
soon as the Westerners derive some
pleasure in cultivating them, their
zeal may surpass that of the Eastern
erS.
Age after age, all the poets got
their inspiration. melancholy and
love of humanity from flowers. Med
itating hour after hour in the lonely
garden surrounded with flowers, they
weayed the thread of their thoughts
into poetry. There they talked with
Nature in the unknown voice. Then
why should We not grow flowers in
our garden, which are made solely
to gladden. the heart of man, for a
light to his eyes, for a living inspira-
tion of grace to his spirit, for a per-
petual admiration?'

THE RENEGADES
|, Q Q NN~N N0N~~


The last of the long horn steers were
they,
The last of the herds far flung,
That were trained from the Rio
Grande way,
In the days when the west was
young.
They had cunningly lodged the
roundup hands
When the range was combed in
the spring,
But we drove them at last TO a final
stand,
God, the race was noble thing!
They had fled through the stunted
cedar trees
That jotted the mesa top,
But with heaving sides and trembling
knees
We brought them at last to stop
But the fire was bright in each wild
eye,
And they beloved and paved the
dirt,
And they flung their spreading horns
on high
AS they ended that last long spurt.
Then our grizzled foreman, Texas
Bill,
Spoke up in voice most queer.
He said: II know We've got to kill
The last durn renegade steer,
But I've seen the time when their
like was strung
For miles on the Chisholm trail;
When you heard the songs the cow
boys sung
10 the herds when the moon was
pale.
1--WE seen the time when their
spreading horns
Was thick as the scrub oak trees
When they growed like the prickly
cactus thorns
on a million steers like these.
So I'm goln' to hit the back trail
here,
You cowboys can do the rest.
And I'll know when hear your shots
ring clear
It's the last of the old time west"

The Pendleton Roundup promises
to become an event of increasing in
terest. 1t typifies a phase of life
which is destined soon to pass into
history, and it may be the only means
of keeping vividly before the minds
of the people the manner of life which
prevailed when the West was in the
first beginnings of its making AS the
last generation has seen the practical
extinction of the buffalo the coming
generation may see the extinction of
the cowboy the wild horse and the
wild steer except in such entertain
ments as have made Pendleton ia
nous.
There is no danger that the Round
up will lose its popularity so long az
skill and daring retain their attrac-

ture Of the event. Spectacles illus
trating the mastery of man over the
lower animals have fascination

because 1t requires publicity but be-

newspapers because II is known such
clubs are often used unjustly during
presidential campaigns. That has
been found particularly true in the
south. if all reports are true.
Publicity of newspaper affairs we
should have, but the thing should be
upon such basis as to insure the en-
