SAND GLASS TO KEEP
TIME IN BOXING BOUTS.

Eddie keevan, the manager OF
Jimmy Walsh OF Boston. has been
experimenting with device to take
the place OF watch in keeping
time during bout for boxers sec.
onds. II consists OF a slender glass
tube. containing rod sand. The tube
Is divided into two sections. and the
sand runs from one section to the
other downwardly in exactly three
minutes. The principal advantage 10
that it can be hung on the post in
A boxers corner and needs only
a side glance OF half second to
tell a man how the time is going.
Keevan believes the glass could be
enlarged and put over ring for
the benefit Of the entire audience.
Keevan recently tried 1t in Brook

FOUNTAINS ON BROADWAY,

The proposal of the Women's Civic
League to establish drinking foun-
tains on Broadway is a sensible sug-
gestion. Ii has been more than a
year since the prohibition of the pub
lie drinking cup by the State Board
of Health. Nothing has been done in
this city to take its place. People
who do not carry a clumsy collap-
sible cup must go thirsty or devise
some way to get drink. Generally
they take the lid off the water tank
and use that for cup.
The public drinking cup was not
prohibited because it was round or
lust cause" 1t was abolished be-
cause dangerous diseases are often
communicated by persons drinking
from the same vessel. For the same
reason that it was abolished some
thing should be done to keep persons
from drinking from the same vessel.
The bubbler is the most practical
thing.
The state has gone half way. The
other half of the work is to provide
some way whereby persons may get
a drink without using the same ves-
it has done its part, Columbia would
do well TO establish the bubblers.

THE OLD.TIME BOY.
fed.

What has become of the oldtime
boy who got up at o'clock in the
morning and played until he was so
tired he could hardly wait for supper?
Has our transformed system of in
Gustry brought a new type of boy?
Frankly. it seems that it has. The
old-time boy used to play wolf, black
man and the more strenuous games.
He went swimming and stayed in all
afternoon. He went fishing and he
never failed to catch two or three cat
fish an inch long and "a lot of little
ones" He took the dogs and hunted
He climbed the highest trees for
birds nests. He was always doing
something the other boys could not
do"
What a contrast to him is the boy
of today who gets up at s o'clock or
later. He loafs about the house all
morning and reads book rather
than going out to play. In the after
noon he goes to town and tries to
figure out some way to make enough
to get into the nickel show at night
After supper he goes to the pool hall
and amuses himself until 10 or IL
o'clock He wouldn't think of going

THORPE'S PROFESSIONALISM.

II is charged that James Thorpe.
who was proclaimed the greatest
athlete of modern times at the Olym-
pic games. has played professional
baseball. If this is proved, America
will have to return the medals
Thorpe won. This will lower Amer
icas standing but will not cause us
tC lose the meet.
Who is to blame for our national
disgrace in the athletic world? 1t is
alleged that Thorpe did not know he
was playing professional baseball.
II this is the case. the blame should
be fixed on the man or the men who
knew he was a professional and wait
ed until after the great meet was over
before the charges were made. 1t is
the worst type OF unfair deal on their
part. Not only does it disgrace
Thorpe but it also disgraces our
athletic standing with the other ma

A LAKE FOR WATER SPORTS.

college man, to have a sound
body as well as a sound mind, should
look ahead with regard to athletic
sports. In looking ahead to these
sports preference should be given
to those which may be followed after
leaving college Many of these sports
which We can follow in after life are
water sports as skating, rowing.
swimming. canoeing, tobogganing and
reasons, the lake suggested by Prof
II. F. Major would be an excellent
thing for the University of Missouri.
Sports like basketball, football, and
track are all right while a person is
in school. After he leaves college,
however, he rarely has a chance to
follow these sports. None of them
can be followed after one gets out
of the prime of life. The water
sports are milder and can be followed
until a person gets to be fifty. sixty
and even seventy years old.
1t is not that the lake would be
so expensive as TO be impossible. As
Professor Major has pointed out. little
excavation would be needed adjacent
stone quarries would furnish excellent
material and existing projections
would form natural abuiments for the
dam, which would be OF comparative
lv short length. There is plenty of
natural scenery at the proposed To-
cation of the lake so that very little
would have to be done in the way of
landscape gardening.
Such a lake would put Missouri on
level with other institutions of its
size in the way of facilities for water
sports.

A JOURNALISTIC GARDEN

The Tribune has just been
placed upon the exchange
list OF the University MissOu-
rian and now this department
is sitting up nights reyeling
in the classic columns OF the
sheet that is the garden
spot where in Missouri jour-
nalists are blooming.
The L. NJ. is a newspaper
the size OF The Tribune and
is student enterprise, with
students to the right of it,
students to the left of it, stu
dents on the editorial staff,
students in the advertising
department and students
back of all volleying and
laundering. But it's no anna
teur paper. COlumbians de-
pend upon the U. NJ. for their
news and many is the cheer
full fireside that sees the head
of the family coming the
aforesaid columns while the
faithful wife darns the as
sembled socks.
For the Missourian is al
most an ideal newspaper and
it warns the cookies of an
editors heart to turn the
pages and see the absolutely
good stuff that gets into print
in that paper day by day.
News-lOts of it-and then
enough of that semi-news,
semi-editOrial matter, which
is known to "the trade" as
feature stuff" and which the
general public cottons-to
with an appetite that calls
for more.
If anybody ever had any
doubt as to school of jour-
nalism's being a success, all
that he needs is to get a copy
of that paper and sit down on
the sunny side of the barn
and read it through-the
paper, not the barn. He'll
find the answer all the way
from the head lines to the
heavy editorials.
And the part that pleases
