LET'S VOTE YES.

To vote yes" on Amendment No. II
November 3 is to strike another blow
at the liquor traffic in Missouri Under
the present local option law all towns
of less than $500 population vote on
the dramshop question in conjunction
with their county.
The County Unit Bill would include
all towns, irrespective of population,
in the vote in each county, the coun-
ty being the unit This is just meas
ure. as the country as well as the
town is influenced by the saloon and
should have voice in determining
the saloons existence. Town and
country alike are affected socially, po-
litically and financially.
But few cities in the State would
remain wet under the proposed law.
Country people are usually against
the saloon and only by segregation
have the larger towns and cities re-
mained wet. In those counties retain
ing saloons under the county unit plan
there would be but little change.
The fast advance of local option
throughout the State has shown that
the people are ready for a more dras-
tic measure to further curtail the liq-
uor traffic. The County Unit Bill will
do the work; shall it be law?
Let's vote "yes."

The Literary Trawler
SainthOOd.


One knelt in tears all night before
the altar;
One wrought a shrine with unac-
customed toll;
And both wore lilied peace that keen
assaulter
Was impotent to soil.
And one assailed the haze of tropic
ocean,
Some solitary lepers to befriend,
And lent her youth in pitiful devo-
Where gay-plumed birds ascend.
Those won their haloes. This, a
simple maiden,
Consoled her kinsfolk; but a win
try pair;
She sang and danced in lime-light,
sorrow-laden,
With roses in her hair.

DID YOU JOINT

In its recent campaign for member
ship the Young Mems Christian Asso.
citation Of the University of Missouri
placed on its roll the names of zoe
young men.
One noteworthy fact appears in con-
nection with this work: The students
have kindlier feeling toward the Y.
M. C. A than has been shown in past
years.
One campaigner spoke to more than
fifty men and not one of them showed
antagonism toward the movement. The
opposition met by others was negligi-
BILE and proved that there is a realiza-
ton of the worthiness of the institu-
ton.
This changing attitude is the re-
suit of better understanding of the
work of the organization. The service
of the Y. NJ. c. A. engenders commen-
dation; to be "a member of the family"
and assist in the furtherance of that
service is a privilege.

THE SECOND MILESTONE.

The second milestone of the schoo
year is now well under way. What il
your attitude toward 1t, Missouri stu
dents? Are you still following the res
olution, the same one that is made at
the beginning of each school year, to
keep your work up each day and each
week, or have you lost your first
wind and are you resting easily until
you can catch your second? Perhaps
you are one of those who wait until
the end to begin serious work.
Whichever of these classes you be-
long in it will do no harm to pinch
yourself to see If you really are
awake. Where do you stand now that
there is plenty of time to accomplish
a semester of good work? Just remem-
Der that it is growing more and more
difficult for the student who does not
work to get through, and it is not
pleasant to get kicked out" of school.
The failure in itself may not be SO
bad, but it marks lack of something
which does not speak well for future
success.

WHEN THE 7. M. C. A. WAS BUILT
Dean Edwards Of Bible College Tells
Of Raising Money.

Vi A4StmB MVucys
AS preliminary to the campaign
the Y. M. C. A. conducted for new
members recently, Dean G. d. Ed
wards of the Bible College gave some
statistics regarding the association.
The Y. M. C. A. here was organized in
January, 1890, and Dean Edwards has
served at different times as president,
treasurer and chairman and has been
closely connected with the organiza-
ton since its beginning here.
Dean Edwards said from the begin
ming there was work to be done by the
association. One of the earliest works
at accomplished was the adjustment
of hazing' in its worst forms. At a
meeting In which John R. Mott spoke,
ffty-eight members pledged them
selves to raise $3.50 toward the erec-
ton of the present building. Many of
them borrowed the money at 8 per
cent with which to pay their pledge.
At the meeting the plans were left to
the students for final decision. The
questions were whether or not they
an organization; whether or
not the students could pledge the ne
amount. Dean Edwards says
today many of those who pledged the
money consider it the most worthy
action of their college days.
