They are there from every district
in Missouri. They are there from al
most every state in the Union. They
come from a dozen foreign countries
to Columbia to attend the University

dents are attending. The fact shows
how well the people appreciate the
efforts of the state in higher educa-
tion. The University was established
In 1889.
Columbia is its home. The city
has a population of 10000. The
great student proportion makes it a
student town. 1t is town of cul-

home life and exercise. All these
elements must be considered. The
University of Missouri has attended
to them in no half hearted way. 1t
was by so doing that the great insti-
tuition was built up. But what has

One of the greatest helps to young
men at the University in reducing
living expenses is the University
Dining Club, which furnishes table
board at cost to students.
About 45O men students are mem
bers and the total cost to each is
about $3.50 a week. Each man pays
s2J for service and other expenses
at the beginning of the year and also
pays about $1.75 a week for actual
cost of food. About thirty-five stu
dents earn their board there by watt
ing on tables or washing dishes.
The dining club is run jointly by
the students and the University. 1t
is under the supervision of a dormi-
tory board appointed by the Board of
Curators of the University. This
board appoints general managed
who has charge of all the buying and
other business details. The mem
bers of the club elect a council Of
students consisting of president,
|vice-president and secretary, which
sets aside the amount to be spent
each week and has charge OF the
government. The general manager
serves or this board. The Univer-
sity sets no income from the club;
it is run entirely On cost basis
merely to pay its expenses.
The large dining room in Lathrop
Hall will seat about 45O persons,
and the smaller eae $50. The main
room is we'll lighted, containing
about forty windows. Opening OF

able prices.
Many of the students have solved
the problem of the high cost of living.
They have organized the University
Dining Club and are able to board
themselves for less than $3.50
week. The club has nearly 600 men,
bers. There are other boarding clubs
being successfully conducted.
One of the most healthful signs in
connection with the University is the
number of men who work their way
through college. The University
maintains an employment bureau At
the Y. NJ. C. A. which serves the stu
dents free of charge. 1t is estimated
that 20 per cent of the students at
the University earn part or all Of
their expenses.
The University believes that Il
takes a sound body to produce the
best mind. Hence attention has been
given TO the athletic needs of the stu.
dents. The women have a gymna-
sium in Academic Hall. Rothwell
Gymnasium is for the men. It isa
stone building that cost $4,000.
There are tennis courts and golf
links; there is Rollins Athletic

ers where the intercollegiate contests
are held. Nearly 10000 persons
saw the game between Missouri and
Kansas played in Columbia last fall.

dents in the school as an example Of
what they are instructed not to do.
Before the paper is distributed they
give newspaper play. The lawyers
hold a mock trial. The students in
engineering celebrate st. Patricks
Day. They say "St. Patrick was IN
engineer" The University women
hold a May Day celebration.
On the whole, life at the Univer.
sity of Missouri is busy, but all life
that prepares for great things must
be busy. The University realizes it,
duty to its students. They get the
best, whether in classroom, in dormi.
tory, or on the athletic field. The
University has great traditions to live
up to.

of many years ago.
Around the quadrangle are the
main buildings of all the divisions
except that of the College of Agricul-
ture. Academic Hall is the home of
the students in Arts and Science. 1t
is a building of four floors surmount-
ed by tall dome out Of the sight of
which the students say it is impos-
sible to get while in the vicinity of
Columbia. In this building recita-
tions are heard and lectures given in
different subjects leading to the A.
B. degree. The home of the School
of Education and the Graduate
School are also in Academic Hall.
The School of Education maintains
two schools-a preparatory school
and an elementary school-as labor
atories for students in Education.
Academic Hall is at the south of
the campus; near it on the west side
is the building that turns out as its
product civil, electrical, mechanical
and chemical engineers. 1t is a
building of machinery, of steam
engines and of electrical apparatus.
1t has an industrial air about it.
The journalists have a building
where the patter Of typewriters sound
all day in -the busy preparation of
news 'stOries" and advertising copy
for the daily newspaper which is
their laboratory production.
The Law Building is the place
where law students not only attend
classes; it is where they get together
in friendly discussion. 1t contains
the law library with its $1,000
sheepskin bound volumes. 1t, too, is
the home of the practice court in
which practice is given in the actual
preparation of cases.
In connection with the College of
Arts and Science there are separate
buildings for Chemistry and for Geol-
ogy and Zoology.
The College of Agriculture has a
small town of buildings. There are
classroom buildings and laboratory
buildings, buildings for veterinary
science. horticulture, hog cholera
serum - buildings for everything.
The endeavor is to combine theory
with practice. One of the most val
ued laboratol les of the college is the
College Farm.
No pains have been spared to make !
the classroom work as effective as
possible. The very location of the |

TRICK ANIMALS
PLEASE CHILDREN
Antics Of Ponies, Elephants, and
Dogs Draw Hundreds to Gentry
Brothers Show.

Washington children took their parents
in charge yesterday. when they turned
out in force to see Gentry Brothers
shows. The little folks held full sway at
both performances, and Miss Martha
Washington, the pony born here, and
named in honor OF the city, was the
greatest attraction with the shows.
The Gentry shows always play tn
Washington a week. and Monday Is
usually the lghtest day in attendance
Yesterday, however. all records for first
day attendance were shattered. The
Gentry shows mPke a speciality OF cater
ing to ladies and children, and Of this
element both audiences were largely COM
posed.
The performance started with a grand
entree, in which droves Uf educated
ponies and horses took part. 4 remark
ably well trained herd OF elephants gave
a circus tinge to>the whole, but the Gen
try shows are distinctly not a circus.
After the entree march. Araby. a
snow-whits Arabian horse, had full pos
session OF the tent, and the stunts he
performed brought forth rounds OF ap-
plause. A troupe Of military ponies ex-
ecuted all the moves known in company
drill. The herd Of elephants, the only
ones in the world that carry two trunks.
executed a maze Of tricks.
Among the dogs was the Snyder fam
Ily. The Snyder dogs waltzed. sat in
chairs, and did many other tricks that
delighted the little folks.
A troupe Of aerial performers broke
the monotOny Of the string OF trained
animal acts. A comedy acrObatic act
was also introduced.
The colored man and his trick mule
convulsed the audience with laughter.
The monkey fire department concluded
the show
Gentry Brothers shows are quartered
at Sixteenth and L Streets Northwest.
They will give two performances each
day this week. the first at and the sec
