CHARACTER MORE THAN BRAINS

Does success in business rely more
on character than brains! Such noted
men as J. Pierpont Morgan and Lord
Cromer of England tell us it does Mr..
Morgan said that a character was a
bankers most important asset. Lord
Cromer says that character is a Gov
ernment officials indispensable qualifi-
cation, that as per cent of a British
officials influence for good depends
on character and the other 25 per cent
on brains.
There is no mistake, however large,
which if made because of defective in
telligence, cannot be rectified in some
way. But mistakes due to defective
character may never be corrected.

WHY MEN LEAVE SCHOOL.

The writer of the Missouri Notes
in the Kansas City Times says after
a week in Columbia:
Our eyes have been i'm such bad
shape today that the peoples column
has had to be composed wholly of
Columbia memories. The reason for
said optical failure being that We wore
out the old orbs i'm distracted gazing
at the beautiful goods pass all day
long. 1t is certainly an awful place
for one of tender susceptibility"
Perhaps here is an explanation why
SO many young men drop out before
the school year is over.

This list could be multiplied many
times over. Would you like to attend
services where the preacher eschewed
these words and their legions ofFrench
companions? What sort of sermons
would you hear? How far would you
be edited?
In conclusion Miss Learned mentions
Shakespeare and Macaulay. Inasmuch
as these authors pages are alive with
French words, one fails to understand
why she mentions them.
AS a matter of fact. our words of
French origin are said to outnumber
by two or three to one those coming
from the AnglO-Saxon. Furthermore,
the French words give US a large,
significant proportion of expressions
of beauty, lofty thought, and emotion.
of terms of science, literature, music,
sculpture. commerce, art. The French,
Latin, and Greek words in English are
what serve to mark of our language
from barbarism. If you could discover
a person who literally uses only Anglo
Saxon words in speaking English, you
would have discovered a person too
ignorant for any peasant hut of mod
ern times. An interesting experiment.
by the way, consists in underlining
with red ink the words of French ORR
gin on page Of good modern English

ADVERTISING COLUMBIA.

Columbia has been advertised, Co
lumbia is being advertised and Co
lumbia will be more extensively adver.
tised as long as the Columbia Com.
mercial Club keeps up the work i,
is doing now. Farmers Week, when
farmers were here from this and other
states, the Commercial Club gave them
a banquet and showed them the town
in automobiles. Again the Columbia
Commercial Club made the delegates
of the Missouri Federation of Women's
Clubs welcome
Last Friday ended Journalism Week.
The Commercial Club came forward
this time and gave the journalists a
welcome that was felt to be sincere.
A large amount of the credit for ad-
vertising Columbia must be given to
the Commercial Club. Advertising
helps town, swells its population
and increases its business.
A live, up-to-the-minute commercial
club in every town is of inestimable
value to the town. In the last ten
years Columbia has increased in size
several thousands. Let the good
work go on.

THE NEW JOURNALISM.

The largest Journalism Week in the
history Of the University was held
here last week There were speakers
from eight states. They came with
new ideas. Nearly 300 editors were
here to profit by the exchange of ideas
Throughout the week there was
voiced the spirit Of a new journalism
with service as its motto and aim. II
is as a public servant. as the light
that shines from a hilltop. not as an
instrument Of private gain, or a ma
chine for politicians, that the news
paper of the new Journalism takes its
place in the world.
The new journalism demands de-

cency and honesty in its news. editor
ials and advertising. 1t holds forth
the ideal of moral and intellectual up
lift in social and business life. 1t
tries to reveal all truth and crush the
untrue. 1t strives to eliminate un-
wholesome. vulgar and morbid news
and to print sparkling stories of the
better things of life. The new jour-
nalism wages unrelenting war on dis
reputable and dishonest business
methods.
This idea of an impersonal Journal
ism that strives to uplift and serve
its community is carried to both city
and country. 1t is recognized that
the fundamental principles are the
same wherever there is news to be
served to the public.

at Fort Washington, which is about

is that there are great many
stagnant pools of water there, that
are breeding places for malaria mos

the army are unable to get rid of
these pools because of the dense

In spite of all the talk, most OF us

road than in an aeroplane or sub
marine boat. You don't have to get
clear of OF the road to keep out OF

would give up position and make an
entire change in business for "a lot
more money" They would come
around at noon, all rugged out like the
flags of all nations, and tell you about

pear, and the next you would heSr OF
them they would be needing plugs for
the holes in their shoes or wearing a
straw hat in October.

ter of 1t. If it is straight enough anc
wide enough for you to see those who
