IN A UNIVERSITY AUDITORIUM.

The president of the W. c. Z. U.
attended her first temperance meet
ing in a university auditorium here
last week. She has been to meetings
in almost every other place where
public meetings are ever held.
Missouri is coming to be known as
Il state which relates its educational
with its practical life in many ways.
The University of Missouri is a lead
er in various ways of serving the
state by cooperating with its citizens
as well as by training its young peo-
Pile
1t is fitting that the University Of
Missouri should be the first universe
ty to offer hospitality to one of the
great causes for the betterment of the
times, the temperance cause. repre-

JAY DRIVERS.

In this age of motOr-driven vehicles
it is perhaps well for us to make
our point OF view, our opinions and
our laws conform to the convenience
of the motor drivers But it is not
necessary for us to risk ourselves, our
children and other peoples children
to whims of the jay driver
And Columbia has these jay drivers
too. There are reckless chauffeurs on
the streets of this city at all times.
They are men who have forgotten,
probably deliberately that Colum-
bia has speed ordinances. They know
it is impossible for the police to be
at all parts of the city at all times,
and they take a chance on this fact
Not many of them are caught. 1t
wouldn't do much good if they We're
only a small fine. But let's look
at the proposition from another an
gle. Let uS-the drivers, the police
and the citizens-face the danger
thinkingly and do our part to minimize
it. 1t will be too late if We wait un-
til there has been a serious accident.

toned to save their favorite news
paper. Carefully the paper was stack
ed away, day by day or week by week,
in some out-of-the way place, to be
re-read sometime maybe, or perhaps
never.
The newspapers possessed peculiar
value in those days. Good reading
was scarce and either because of re-
Iuctance to throw away thing high
priced, because of a feeling that 4 later
reading would be repaid by bringing
back pleasant memories or for their
historical value. they were saved.
How different it is todya. The news
papers are the cheapest things sold
so cheap that the people never think
of saving them. They are so cheap
that publishers have to use all their
skill in writing catchy headlines and
in preparing the news in such a way
that the facts can be CLEANED while
reading on the run, to get the news
papers read at all
However, if people would practice
keeping a file of their favorite news
paper, especially the local one, and
then take time to read it in five. ten
or twenty years. they would find it
source OF peculiar enjoyment He
who has not gone through the files of
an old newspaper has missed much.

WHO PITCHES TODAY!
Baseball Fans Are EngrOSSed in the
Worlds Series.

Judging from the talk that can be
heard, there is only one thing hap
pening this week. And the interest
seems to be more in what men will
pitch than in the result of the game.
"Mathewson and Bender will be the
opposing pitchers in the game to-
day" said a shoe drummer from ST
Louis, standing in the lobby of the
hotel. No Cne seemed in doubt as
to what was meant by the" game,
but many differed strongly with him
in his prophecy. THAT shows that
you don't know Muggsy McGraw,"
said a hardware salesman from
Quincy. Don't you remember those
two games which Rube Macquard
won last year, and don't you know
that the Athletics are weakest
against Southpaws. Not much, the
two pitchers will be Shawkey and
Macquard"
And thus the conversation proceed
ed IN the lobby. Almost every one
was deeply interested. A witness
from one of the trials in progress at
the courthouse broke in with a re-
mark about the good work of the de-
PENDANTS lawyer. So far as could be
seen, no! ody ever heard him. Every
few minutes someone would come in
from the dining room, who was well
versed in percentages and averages.
His dope" was listened to with re-
spect and attention.
The majority were quilting for the
Giants but were afraid that they had
no show. One enthusiast for New
York, however, quoted Billy Sunday
to support his side: THE Giants
have the best pitching, and pitching
is to a ball team what cannon and
artillery is to an army" Back came
a Philadelphia fan with the words of
another celebrity, George Cohan:
Connie Mack has six 300 and bet

pitching staff built that can with

'.Shucks," said one matter-of-fact
man who wanted to talk business,
the President of the United States
might as well declare weeks hOli-
day for the first week in October.
There would be about as much work
done" "Oh!t said his friend, 1T
is the great national game and we
must have our recreation. Come on:
let's go see if there is a score board

NICOTINE FIGHT TO COURT
DOwieiteS Hope to Drive Smokers
From Zion City.

hN United lreSS-
ZION CITY, H.. Oct. S.-Dowieites
and anti-Dowieites in this city founded
by the prophet, John Alexander
DOWie, are primed for the battle to
be fought before the state supreme
court at Springfield this month, by
which Overseer VOliva hopes to purge
Zion City of the vapors of nicotine
VOLTA will seek to GUST the F.. B.
Cook electrical company and it's to-
bacco smoking employees from Zion
City on the ground that they violated
their contract with the Dowieites by
failing to employ the number of men
specified in their contract, and by be-
ginning operations twelve months
after the specified date This will be
the technical objection raised by
Voliva to the presence of the COM
pany on Zion City land. The real
motive behind the fight is the fact
that the electrical workers employed
by the Cook company have persistent
ly defied the Dowieite authorities in
the enforcement of the ordinance for
bidding Understanding in Zion City.
For fifteen months, the elders of
Zion City have sought in vain to con-
vert the heather" electrical workers.
They erected a little platform across
the street from the plant and held
two religious meetings daily, regard
less of the weather conditions. Street
parades were an additional feature,
the Dowieites descending upon the
plant by hundreds. and several riots
occurred. Two of the elders We're
beaten and lay at the point of death
for several weeks but the daily meet
| ings continued.

The democratic spirit and good fell
lowship manifested by the students
here demonstrates the good being
one by the Y. NJ. c. A. Bring all
men together" is the slogan For
years the great danger in the Univer-
sity was the formation of students
into cliques.
AcquaintanceS and friendships that
would have been otherwise formed
between students were lost because
of the lack of a more democratic spir-
it. The Y. NJ. c. A. is a common meet
ing ground for men of all classes and
departments.
"a place where he can meet his
friends-his social home. The ambi-
ton of the Y. NJ. c. A. always has been
to establish that sort of social center
The Y. NJ. c. A. charges nominal
membership fee. This fee, supple
mented by dormitory fees and gifts
from men who are interested in stu
dent life. enables the Y. NJ c. A. to
provide the students with good accom-
modations at a low cost.
Began Work i'm Summer.
Early this summer a vigorous cor
lrespondence was carried on with
every prospective student that could
be located. The V NJ. c. A. volunteer
ed services regarding personal mat
ters such rs room, board and employ
ment.
More than two hundred inquiries
| were received from men who stated
that they would have to earn at least
half of their expenses while attend
| ing the University. These men We're
urged to come to Columbia about Sep
tember /, in order that employment
might be got for them. From seventy
five to one hundred men arrived in the
first ten days. They were Temporal
rily taken care of at the Y. NJ C. \.
Building.
A thorough canvass of Columbia
was made to urge citizens to list any
work they might have with the Asso-
ciations employment bureau. The
purpose of this bureau is to provide
employment for the men who really
need it.
New students were met at the train

and taken to Y. Nj. c. A. building.
Their mail was sent there until they
were located. New men were strong
ly urged to make the Y. NJ. c. A.
true that new students make their
first friends at the Y. NJ. c. A. No
distinction between new and old men
is recognized in the dormitories or
clubrooms. No chi-chi-ing is per-
mitted in the building.
When new students enrolled this
year, every registration card required
the students religion or choice of
churches. Every night these cards
We're sent to the Y. NJ. c. A. and
there classified as to churches. These
cards were Immediately turned over
to the different church representa-
tives. The main object of this was to
get the new man related to the
churches of their choice without any
unnecessary delay.
Develops Religious Interests.
The Y. NJ c. A. is a volunteer
agency in the University work that
attempts to conserve and develop the
religious interests in young men.
Sixty per cent of the students are
church members. The majority are
in sympathy with religion.
The Y NJ c.. A. at present comes
nearer being a platform on which all
men of religious interests can stand,
Another important phase of Y. NJ. c.
A. work is that of creating a good
social environment for the foreign
student. Men from all parts of the
world attend the University. These
men make the Y. NJ. c. A. their head
quarters. Here they see a pleasing
side of the University life that ap-
peals to them.
The foreign student can easily for
get his homesickness if he has a good
social environment. At least so per
cent of the students have social af-
flliatiOns outside the Y. NJ. c. A. Last
year eighty different societies and
honorary fraternities held their week
ly meetings in the Y. NJ. c. A. club
rooms without charge. Increased
facilities will even better the con-
ditions this year. P. C.

WANT GAME IN KANSAS CITY
Students at Lawrence Take Poll to
Determine Sentiment.

The students at Lawrence are try
ing hard to return the Kansas-AIis
souri, game to Kansas City. Last
week the Daily Kansan took a poll
to determine the sentiment of the
students as to the return of the game
to Kansas City. When the votes
were counted it was found that l,12l
students wanted Kansas City and 1l3
voted for Columbia and Lawrence.
The judge who counted the votes
as they came in. said that most of
the 113 were voted by professors or
co-eds. f. c. Meservey, formerly
president of the Kansas City Alumni
Association, believes that this vote
represents the strong sentiment at
Lawrence for the return of the game
to Kansas City.
This feeling was emphatically
shown last Saturday when Kansas
played William Jewell. Cheer leader
William Morris asked the rooters at
the William Jewell game where they
wanted the Kansas Missouri game
The Rock Chalk" was changed to
kansas City" but with the same
amount of spirit Governor George
II. Hodges sitting in the rooters sec
ton showed his satisfaction by rails
ing his hat and smiling in recognition
to the expressed sentiment.

MUSIC WHILE YOU WORK!

A French financier and manufacture
er deplores the fact that his country
men do not sing at the workbench as
much as in former days, and conse-
quently are falling behind other
nationalities in the amount OF work
they can do. Besides getting better
and more work from singing laborers,
this Frenchman believes that the mu-
sic would also lessen the number of
strikes caused by discomfort.
Every person who has lived or Wis
tied in the South has seen the negroes
at work, singing all the while OBJ
servers declare that they perform
much more while singing. The big
porters along the Mississippi River
will pick up enormous loads, put them
on their shoulders and trot off to the
barge they are loading, singing all
the while Cotton manufacturers say
they do not get as much work from
their help because the noise of the
machinery keeps one negro workman
from hearing the other sing.
An efficiency expert at work now on
the Stephens Publishing Company's
plant tells that linotype men do more
work when a graphophone is playing
near by.
What is worrying us is. just which
workman is the music in the restau-
rant supposed to aid. the waiter who
waltzes a heavy tray through a
labyrinth of tables. or the patient NOR
tai working as quietly and respecta-
bly, as possible to consume refracto-
ry steak?
