increased Importance. 1t was the CO.
operation that exists between the bus
mess interests of Columbia and the
University. The old narrow town
and-gown" question is at its minimum
here.
Those persons who have been at
tending the Commercial Club meetings
of the last year have been brought to
realize through the speeches made
and the attitude of the members to-
ward the speeches that the business
men of the city and the members OF
the University are not at war with
each other. To get away from the neg
atiye, they are friendly toward each
other and are working together for
the good of all.
The thing of special import at the
banquet, however. was the large num-
Der of University persons present,
about forty teachers and students. 1t
probably was the greatest number that
ever attended a Commercial Club meet
ing-another mark of advance. These
persons saw at first hand the existing
conditions. They heard DIR. J. W. Hud-
son of the University and Paul Brown,
editor of The St Louis Republic,
speak of the cooperation necessary be-
tween business and education. No one
present could help but be impressed by
the feeling of fellowship.
The University is a business and
Business is an education. That the two
have realized this and are working to-
gether here has enabled things to be
accomplished that could not have
been hoped for otherwise.

ONE FOR YOU AND ONE FOR Me.

Do you remember the story of the
two boys who were counting their
walnuts in this way, "One for you and
one for me-" There was no choice as
to which walnuts were the best; the
only thing at issue was to get them
equally divided.
Chicago and East St. Louis, ILL.,,
held primary elections last week, the
first under the new Illinois Suffrage
Law. In East st. Louis only forty
nine persons voted, and not one of
them was woman. The reports of
the election do not say that anything
bad resulted from this unrepresenta-
tive poll, but it is evident that such an
election could never bring about a
change for the better if needed.
In Chicago, on the other hand, 1885,
900 women registered three weeks ago.
and Immediately officials and candi-
dates began to advocate the things the
women wanted. Arrests were made
right and left of persons who violated
the ordinance against splitting on the
sidewalks. This was followed by an
active anti-smoking campaign. Every
body and everything began to straight
en- up and put on a good appearance
At the election only $4,000 of these
women voted Some of the others were
kept away from the polls by the wealth
er and the rest did not vote for the
reason that they did not want to bind
themselves to a party. But this one
third of the women voters was enough
to defeat ten machine Democrats, and
Chicago has started on a new era.
Here are two walnuts, walnuts that
demand choice One for you and one
for me. Which will you have?

DOCTORS TO ADVERTISE.

The council on health and public in
struction of the American Medical AS
sociation has taken steps to have the
association remove the ban on news
paper advertising.
Reputable doctors and surgeons have
long refused to let their advertise
ments appear in newspapers, merely
because newspaper advertisements of
doctors in the past have usually been
inserted by irresponsible doctors and
"quacks."
Now that there are campaigns COM
pleted and going on in various parts
of the country to eliminate the
"quacks," it is to be hoped that the
reputable doctor can come into his
own again, and feel perfectly respect
able in inserting his ad in a newspa-
per.
1t will make it much easier for the
public, when a person can take up
any newspaper and feel assured that
he can get reliable medical attention
from any doctor whose ad appears in
the paper.

CENTURY OF PEACE BETWl
ENGLAND AND AMI


marks the Tooth anniversary of the
signing of the treaty OF Ghent.
Elaborate preparations which have
been made in this country, England
and Canada in celebration of the
day are being carried out quietly in
modified form because of the war.
International peace conferences that
had been proposed and planned are
necessarily indefinitely postponed,
however, many meetings are beine
held throughout this country where
appropriate addresses are to be de-
livered in furtherance of the plan.
In England and Canada the cordial
relation and peace between the Eng
lish speaking nations is beng quiet
ly but appropriately celebrated.
The peace parades that had been
planned for the border cities along
! the great lakes have been aban-
, doned.
The great celebration was to have
taken place in Ghent, Belgium,
| province of East Flanders. which Is
, just now the hotbed of the war. 1t
: had been proposed to hold an ey
hibition there and five million dol
lars had been expended for this pur-
pose before the war.
1t was a most distinguished COM
pany which sat in the historic hall
in Client during most of 1913 and
all of 1914 and with dignity and
often with deep emotion discussed

ginning of lasting peace and amity,

The British representatives were

longed speeches and diplomatic
sparring and it was not until Dec.
