/, .GET.TO.CHURCH DAY. HERE.

Why not have go to church day
in Columbia?
In Kansas City 100000 people went
TO church last Sunday, and nearly
million attended the services of the
Chicago churches. There is no doubt
that every one of those persons was
benefited by it, But that is not the
most significant feature of the move
ment. The campaign that was carried
cities daily brought to the attention
of their readers the fact that the
church holds an important place in
present day affairs and is doing a big
work. Even the people who did not
respond to the invitation to go to
church were virtually forced to think
of the church for a week and to real
ize something of its place in society.
The churches of Columbia have done
much in the last four months to in
crease their attendance, but among
their University members alone only
80 per cent are regular church goers.
Why not get the other 30 per cent and
the non-church-going people of the
town out to at least one days serv-
ices. 1t may serve to get them out
Oftener.

Why Not Il Loan Fund!

Editor the Missourian:-A few
weeks ago announcement was made
of a gift to the University of an estate,
valued at about $250,000. Scholarships
or fellowships to encourage graduate
work might be established with this
money. On the other hand it might be
used to establish loan fund for
needy students to help them complete
their college work.
Many students who have completed
one. two or three years of work find
it impossible to carry the rest of their
course and at the same time make
all their expenses. They have no COM
mercial rating at the banks, and their
relatives cannot help them; so they
are forced to leave school with their
education incomplete.
The University has no large loan
fund at the disposal of such students.
Experiences have shown that wherever
such a fund is established. there is
very little loss, but that ii is almost
always repaid with interest. 1t would
seem that in no other way could such
a sum of money be better disposed of
to do the state and the University a
larger good. than to establish loan
fund for needy students. f.

VIEWPOINTS


Editor the Missourian:- Edward W.
Box. in current issue of the Ladies
Home Journal, says that Our own Ia
bles are greater curse than the sa-
loon" If he is right we may expect,
in a few years after the saloon has
been banished. to hear that So
and-so' is a beefsteak inebriate.
When the Anti-Saloon League has
served its purpose and is no more, an
organization known as the Anti-Over-
Eating Society probably will arise.
We may even hear of cafes and res
taurants being forbidden by law TO sell
over certain amount of food.
A word will have to be coined to
take the place of bootlegger. The
achievement of modern chemistry per
haps will make it possible TO slip
man a square meal in small tablet
or pill. We may read with horror in
a quarter of century that MAJOR
Highlife and some associates carous-
ed till midnight in certain eating
house on Gluttony street. They ate a
sirloin, chop and three fresh eggs
apiece" We will wonder how any
man could consent to dig his grave
with his teeth.
After all, most of us who read Mr..
Bok's editorial can console ourselves
with the reflection that we will never
be able to become "drunkard' in
edibles unless the III. {. of l.. tum-
bles or we get job in the Ford auto
mobile factories. f.. V. y.

Editor the MissOurian:-Re a
cooperative produce association was
organized in this city by number of
representatives of fruit and vegetable
associations. The organization was
not complete but the members said
they intended to complete it as soon
as possible and that then a city would
be invited to cooperate with the asso-
citation.
Columbia has a chance here that it
cannot afford to overlook. The plan
of the association TO give good serv-
ice and low prices on fruit and veg
etables looks strong. Aside from max
ing itself known as progressive city,
Columbia would render its citizens a
valuable service in standardizlng the
buying of produce. The market would
be more even in prices and in the sup
ply of goods if the cooperation of this
association were secured.
The city government could provide
this service for the citizens by erect
ing a municipal market, which has
proved in many cities to be great
aid to the housewife, and by making
arrangements with the association.
Citizens. and more especially board
ing house proprietors ought to urge
the city council to consider the mat
y.

WOULD AID FARM GIRLS. TOO
State Board of Agriculture Issues Bul-
Ietin on Home Economics.

The boy in Missouri has been bet
ter provided for than the girl, thinks
the State Board of Agriculture.
The boy has agriculture in the pub
lie schools, corn exhibits. entertain
ment at the State Fair, and a trip to
Columbia during Farmers Week.
Now the free scholarship to the Col
lege of Agriculture has been offered
him by his county.
The State Board believes that the
girl should have similar opportunities.
A bulletin just issued by the depart
ment outlines the plans for developing
the home economics work in Missouri.
This work in home economics does
not concern the farm women eXclu-
sively The endeavor is to interest
all women in the State. Home makers
clubs are being organized in towns
and cities as well as in rural commu-
mites.
Several agricultural papers in Mis-
souri, have begun the publication of a
women's department in which home
problems are discussed. Bulletins con-
tanning aids for the home maker are
issued from time to time by the State
and the United States Departments of
Agriculture. The counties which will
provide equipment and room may
have the services of a demonstration
at any time during the year. The
aim is to have the individual problem
of that community discussed.
The plan is to hold contests in the
public schools for the girls. Equip
ment for teaching home economics in
the rural schools is being installed in
many rural districts.
The State Board is desirous' of Civ
ing all aid possible to better home
conditions in Missouri.

THE COUNTRY WEEKLY.
oftener.

In all the larger towns of Missouri
the country weekly is passing. The
high speed printing presses OF the
cities, the fast mail trains, the tele-
phone and rural free delivery have all
conspired to give the old paper its
death blow. The country daily, too,
is encroaching upon the field of the
weekly, forcing it to change its form
or go out of business. There is some
thing regrettable about the change
which is eliminating the country week
ly and putting the daily paper in its
place, but such is the edict of modern
business.
The newspapers of both country and
city are becoming more of business
enterprises than formerly, but along
with this change another is taking
place in the country. With the coming
of the daily newspaper the relation
between the paper and its subscribers
is less personal than it used to be.
The influence of the old country week
ly was built up. in a large part, upon
the personal ties between the editor
and his constituents; but in spite of
these ties the old landmark appears
to be doomed. for the daily newspaper
is invading every part of the state.
Even in towns of only few thousand
people it is forcing its way.
Macon, Kirksville, Excelsior Springs
and De Soto are some of the Missouri
towns in which dailies have recently
been started and now Brookfield is
about to follow their lead, while Gait,
a town of less than 600 inhabitants.
has been supporting a daily for more
than a year. 1t all means that the
country weekly must specialize in 10
cal news in order to survive and even
then il is doubtful if it can overcome
the effect of the quicker news service
offered by its daily competitor.
In the past the country weekly has
done faithful service. The daily with
its hurry and rush, its expert editors
and keen reporters can never fill its
place. for the personal ties between the
editor and his constituents will be
broken.
Let no one despise or undervalue the
country weekly, for it has served its
community faithfully and well.

Discussion on Floor of House
Shows That UnWelcorne Pro-
jeet May Be Pressed

That the plan to establish ma
tional home for lepers at Molokai is
ALREADY far advanced in Washington
Is indicated by the discussion which
followed the introduction, on June
of the house bill published in the Star
Bulletin last week. The bill was in
troduced by Congressman Albert John
son of Washington.
The discussion, reported by the
Congressional Record, is as follows:
MIR. johnson of Washington--Mr.
Chairman, wish to occupy few mo-
ments of the time of the committee
on the question of the transportation
of Iepers in interstate traffic, con-
cerning which strict regulations exist.
A most distressing situation has
arisen with regard to an unfortunate
citizen of the United States, a vet
eran of the Spanish-American war,
the leper John Early, who first turned
up some four years ago in the city of
Washington. He was most generous
ly cared for by the people here, | am
told, but was finally persuaded to
leave the city of Washington to go
where he pleased on condition that
he would not return to this city. In
the course of time he arrived near
Tacoma, Wash, with a wife and sew
eral children.
Mr.. Raker-Is there any evidence
that the authorities of the city of
Washington knew that this man had
leprosy and then turned him loose
upon this country on condition that
he would not return to the city of
Washington, but go elsewhere? =
Mr.. Johnson of Washington can
not say as to all the steps taken at
that time by the authorities of the
District.
Mr.. Raker-Such a condition of af-
fairs would be worse than turning
loose a band of murderers.
Mr.. johnson of Washington--Let
me say, however, that a dispute arose
as to the disease from which the man.
suffered. Both the medical authori-
ties Of the United States Public
Health Service and of the District Of
Columbia insisted that he had lepro-
sy, and their diagnosis has since been
confirmed beyond all question. How
ever, doctor came here nom New
York and Unlisted that Early did not
have leprosy; and while the contro-
