TUMBLING CLASS FOR GIRLS
Miss Alice Arnold VIII Have
Charge of Instruction.


Miss Alice Arnold, assistant gym
nasium instructor, will have a
tumbling class for University wom-
en-.
One girl said, "Tbey have had me
in a special gym class-said
wasn't strong enough to take the
regular work. Well, when 1 heard
that there was to be a tumbling
class, I'm so crazy about swimming,
land knew tumbling would help
me to be a better diver this coming
summer) that went right over to
the doctor to get permission not
only to take the regular work, but
to take tumbling. Maybe you think
l wasn't happy when he said "Yes
you are strong enough now-TH
notify them to let you take the
work"
Another girl said, I'm hoping to
enter the class, because. I'm sure
it will make me thin"
Miss Arnold started the class at
the request of several students who
have been very anxious for some
time to have instruction along this
line.
Miss Arnold was asked if the
work would make the girls more
graceful. She said. mo, l should
hardly say that, but it certainly will
timber them up"

STEPHENS TO HAVE SPECIAL
Fast Trains VIII Wait on Cars
Carrying College Girls.

A special dinner will be served
to the students at Stephens College

Christmas tree Tuesday. The Col
lege will close at o'clock on the
afternoon of December 16. At 4:30
! special steel cars for the students
of the college will leave over the
Wabash for st. Louis and Kansas
City.
Several of the railroads out of
st. Louis and Kansas City have
agreed to hold their fast trains for
the stephens Special" so that
connections can be made and no
time will be lost in getting home.
Those who do not leave Thursday
afternoon will go Friday morning.
These arrangements were made so
that University students might have
the trains Friday afternoon and Sat-
urday.
Very few of those attending
Stephens College will spend Christ
mas here. Even those from Wash
ington, d. c., and from Colorado are
going home. Most of the faculty
will also spend their Christmas hol-
idays away from Columbia. Those
who will stay are Basil Gauntlet,
head of the piano department, from
London; Miss Blanche Preston, in
structor in piano, and Miss Sarah
Anderson, teacher of the Bible, both
of Boston. School begins January

sung out-of-doors, and in the dining
room the college songs will be sung
and cheers given. The faculty
will be called on to re-
spond to toasts.
The chief feature of the pre-hol-
day dinner is the table decorations.
Each table has its own scheme of
decoration and the plans are care
'ully kept secret until the night of
he dinner. All the decorations are
of the coming holidays.
Jlasses will be resumed at s o'clock
January 6.

COLUMBIA'S ELECTRICITY.

COLUMBIA'S ELECTRICITY.
In regard to the present electric
light and power situation in Co
lumbia. where the municipality
owned plant is not used to any ex-
tent in the daytime, the following
facts have been discovered.
The proposed cut in the rate for
day current would increase the de-
mand. This from a prominent cleo
trical engineer of the city.
A municipal electrical supply
store, selling day power devices at
close to cost, would increase the
demand. This from a former resi-
dent of Hannibal, where the plan
is being used with great success.
A combination of the cut in rates
and an electrical supply store
would greatly increase the day de-
mand. This from Columbia's best
known efficiency engineer.
The city is considering both
plans. This from the chairman of
the water and light committee of
the City Council.
In several Colorado cities the
day rates are just a third of the
night rates. This from a dean of
the University faculty.
The local plant is in a condition
for the day rates to be cut in half,
the demand be increased
sufficiently. This from the superin-
tendent of the water and light de-
partment
And finally, Columbia can sell
day current profitably at 8 cents a
kilowatt hour, and night current at
10 cents. This from an instructor /
in the University, speaking from a
minute survey of conditions at the
ocal plant.
The citizens of Columbia own the
electric light and power plant. Pre-
they are interested in it.
Yet its proffered current is being
allowed to go almost altogether to
waste during the daytime. This is
nefficiency.
Yet its day rates are higher than
hey ought to be, preventing any
ppreciable use of the day current.
his is bad policy.
Yet its inability to sell electrical
upplies keeps away the last hope
( increasing the day demand. This
, short-sightedness s
"Give me the demand" says the
Tater and light superintendent,
and I'll cut the day rates in half"
Vaiving the possibilities that they .
ould be cut two-thirds or three I
,urths, this is a liberal offer. s
Cut the rates, sell the supplies ,
nd you'll get the demand-such is
lie answer of the citizens.

HELP WHERE IT'S NEEDED.

In President WILSON'S message
delivered at the opening of tn
present session of Congress, h
mentioned the problem of rura
credit as one of the pressing prob
lens of the day. He said, however
that it had not been possible for &
suitable bill to be framed for con.
sideration by this session of Con,
gress.
The need for reform in our pres.
ent system of farm credit is great
The average farmer in the United
States owns his farm more or less
encumbered. Agriculture in this
country has no greater handicap
than our system of short-time
farm mortgages.
In the thirteen years from 1900
to 1913 our food imports increased
$175, 100000. During the same pc
riod our exports of food decreased
s44,OOO,OOO. Agricultural products
formed $S4.3 per cent Of our total
exports in 1880; in 1913 they were
only 46.1 percent of the whole. Dur
ing the same period manufactured
products showed an increase from
14.7 per cent in 1880 to 4S.S per
cent in 1913. Food supplies were
55.77 per cent of our total exports
in 1880; thirty-three years later
the proportion of food exports had
fallen to 2O.72 per cent.
Colonel F. D. Gardner of st.
Louis has pointed out that along
with this decrease of the proper
ton of agricultural production to
he total of the country's produc-
ion had come a rise of 709 per
,ent in the retail price of food for
the last ten-year period. He made
the assertion that if our cities con-
tinued to grow at the expense of
our rural districts it would not be
long before We ceased to export
food and began to go hungry at
home.
admitting that the most prosper
us nation and the strongest nation
financially is the one that is capa-
BILE of feeding others as well as its
own people, it will be seen by these
figures that the United States is
fast drifting away from prosperity.
Unless something is done soon to
give a great impetus to farming in
this country, we shall become one
of the nations that must depend
on other peoples to feed its popu-
lation.
The short-time mortgages that
great part of American farmers
must labor under are one of the
chief causes of the relative decline .
Of agriculture. In other countries
farm credits are longtime credits.
A system of longtime farm mort ,
cages in this country would go
long way toward turning some of .
the country boys that are drifting I
to the cities back to the farm. Such
a system would enable the poorer
farmers to gradually pay for their
farms and hold them unincumbered. /;
The farmers financial burden is
heavier today than he can bear and Z
prosper under. Z
Something must be done soon or +
the United States will be unable to
feed her own millions. The Ameri- ,
can farmer should have the same T
as the American busi- 9
ness man under any conditions. 1t :
wouldn't hurt to give him a few
more advantages under the present
