The new Utah device is a hand tool
working on the principle of the corn

No modern ventilation.
No modern plumbing.
No modern refrigerator
No gas and electric ranges.
No prepared foods.
No sewing machines.
No pneumatic cleaners
No carpet sweepers.
No elevators or acetyline lights
No electric trains and trolleys.
Instead We walked. or drove in our
coach or the village hack
We waited for the mails. sent a spe-

selves. If we were impatient or the

frozen behind.
We hung our food in the cistern or

We reused out early in the shivery
morning 10 make the kitchen fire.
We fixed up all the foods. and got
ready for some the night before, as
we were ready for bed
We sewed by hand, and made many
OF the fabrics. This kept our hands
good and busy. and left plenty Of
room for gossip, so that we could hate
some one. and ourselves in the bar

We did all the housework by hand,
the dust cloth and the broom. We de-
lighted in climbing stairs.
We read under the glow OF flick
ering lamp or candle
We had no modern magazines and
newspapers.
We stayed az home for the most
part. unless We dropped in on a very

THERE'S A REASON
BY TOM JACKSON.

He does not drink now with the boys;
He's cut out all cabaret joys;
He has sworn off on his cigar;
He rides not In the trolley car;
He fingers no more at the spot
Where fourishes the gay Jack pot;
He isn't stingy-no, not he;
He doesn't like economy.
But he'll be wed in balmy June
And needs dough for the honeymoon.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.

Steadily and surely newspaper ad-
rertising is gaining in favor. The Co
lumbia theater OF Chicago has aban-
doned billboard publicity for news
paper advertising exclusively.
The manager of the theater gives
as a reason for the change that it
brings better business and higher
quality in the personnel OF patronage.
He says newspaper advertising adds
dignity to the better and cleaner class
OF plays.
The discovery was made by the
manager standing in the lobby of the
theater and asking strangers what at
tracted them to the play. He found
that the great majority came because
they read the advertisements in the
newspapers. Few mentioned bill
boards. The manager then began
newspaper advertising exclusively and
now that theater enjoys the best busi-
ness il has ever had.

Stmdents' Privileges.

Editor the Lissourian: A student
who attends a state university must
conform to the rules of the school as
dictated by the people of the state
through their chosen agents. The
wishes of the state legislature. the
board of curators and of the parents
must be considered as well as those
cf the students. Doctor Hill explained
recently these matters in an address
at Assembly.
The University Of Missouri is the
property of the state of Missouri In
the final analysis the policy of the
school is left with the state Students
should remember this. The school be-
longs to the state-and they are grant
ed privileges but not rights. p.

results of making others dependent.
has fostered a strange egoism in these
dependents on accoun, of the attention
shown them. So-called benefactors
acquire an egoism, also, because they
continually pose as selves better than
others whom they must continually
reach down to and serve.
But altruism and benevolence are
not dangerous things. The trouble
lies in the incorrect conception of
them in attending to other persons
entirely as other persons without
counting them as belonging to the
same social situations and rights
which all should have.
A different conception of the moral
self as it should be is gradually COM
ing into the minds of men. 1t is not
self-denial nor a regard for others
because they are others. The new
ethics says that everyone, including
ones self, should count as one. That
there is nothing in other persons be-
cause they are others that they should
have more concern than ones self.
But every condition and consequence.
with others included on the same basis
with ones SELF gives real and ade-
auate solutions to all moral prob
lens. Ii is to remember that both
we and they are selves in which cen
ter happiness and sorrow. needs and
possibilities.
BY this social sense it is possible
to get a more rational conception of
what a self should be. The idea
stands for the giving of justice to
each self and the doing away with
the notion of the inequality of some
persons having to confer benefits up
on others, because they are others.

THE KIND or SELF TO BE.

All moral questions deal with prob
lens of self The kind of self one
decides to be, determines what his
ethics will be- But self is complex
and therefore regarded differently by
different persons and groups.
The Puritanic idea was that all
morals came from self-denial. They
though that man was naturally evil
and as he liked pleasurable things.
such things must naturally be bad.
The principle was that the only way
TO be good was to deny the self Of
all that might make life gay. The
fallacy of the Puritanic ethics is in
the fact they saw there were some
had traits in all men and came to
the wrong conclusion that all flesh
was sinful and should be suppressed.
This doctrine is followed by some to-
day.
Many persons speak with pride Of
this altruistic age in which they live.
They think that the right kind of self
is a benevolent self which must al
ways give to and help others. But
they are mistaken in thinking that a
conscious regard for others is nee
essarily a moral good. To them be-
ing good means thinking of other
selves and not ones self. But much
OF this modern conception of self
with all its attending works of charity
can be ethically wrong. Certainly
much of the indiscriminate giving to
others which it leads to may be moral
ly bad. - i'-'
The benevolent self's virtue lies in
searching for opportunities to dc
something for some one other than
himself. This idea has had the i'll
