PLAY BALL,

AT last it is baseball time. Spring
rains and even SHOWS and cold snaps
may come but every true American
knows that it's time to get out the
old glove and the ball The weather
man may try and fool you by turi.-
ing in some winter-like weather, but
it is time for the umpire's troubles to
begin.
The corner lot has been filling up
with old buggies and boxes during the
long winter months, but it is now due
for clearing-not from the advancers
of the city beautiful idea, but from
the small boys. They must have a
place to play roundsters. This is their
spring training preparatory to beating
the giants" from the other end of
town.
And it is not the small boys alone
who are glad that baseball time is
here. There are thousands and thous-
ands of other boys, big boys who have
real Offices and the like, who will be
glad when the umpire announces the
batteries for the opening game.
It's at the ball game that everyone
seems on an equal with everyone else
The bank president sits and eats pea
nuts by the side of the grocery clerk
and the factory worker. A home run
with two men on bases brings the |
same thrill to each of them. It's at |
the ball game that one forgets all his
troubles and worries for a time. It's
music to the American when the UNI
pire says, PLAY BALI"

The man who owns his home wants

and feels the responsibility for the
home. He knows that he must bear
the expense of making his home beau
tiful. That section of the city in
which the home owners reside is more
beautiful because Of the fixed respon-
sibility.
When any city Improvement is in

WAS MISSOURPS FIRST JUDGE
Historical Society Gets Picture Ol
Judge David Todd.

Mrs. Henry w. Yates of Omaha, Neb.
has presented to the Missouri His
torical Society picture of her grand
father, Judge David Todd. Judge
Todd was the first Judge in Missouri
Territory; he was appointed by Presi-
dent James Monroe in 1917, and serv-
ed till the admission of Missouri as a
state in 1921.
He then was appointed judge of the
First Judicial Circuit of Missouri by
Governor McNair, and served till 1887.
His circuit was the largest in the
state, extending from Fulton to Inde-
pendence, and from Usage River to the
Iowa line; and like the other early
lawyers and jurists of Missouri, he
rode the circuit"
Judge Todd was the Whig candidate
for governor in 1926, but he was de-
feated by Governor Miller by small
majority.
He was born in Lexington, KY, and,
before coming to Missouri, he served
in the war of 1912 under General
William Henry Harrison. VII
Judge Todd came to Missouri, he To-
Gated at Franklin, in Howard County,
and from there he moved to Colum-
bia, remaining here until he died in
1859. He was one of the first trustees
of Columbia, and acted as attorney
for that body in preparing all papers
to the laying out of the |
town and the organization of Boone
County.
Judge Todd was one of the original
subscribers to the University in 1889,
and was the presiding officer at the
laying of the cornerstone of the Uni
7ersity Building in 1910. His son,
Robert B. Todd, afterward Judge of
he Supreme Court Of Louisiana, was
member of the University's first
class, the class of 43.
