The Literary Trawler
History and History.

When history, such as we now un-
derstand it, and which is scarcely
more than a collection of anecdotes
destined to satisfy the rather foolish
curiosity of the lettered public, will
have given place to history written by
thinking men and for thinking men,
one will be astonished to see how lit
tie the deeds of the great agitators"
have altered the main current of civ
ilization. The true heroes of history,
who are the great leaders in the
sciences, arts. literature. philosophy
and industry, will be placed where
they deserve to be, in the first ranks.
A poor philosopher like Ampere who
was never able to make money, and
whose vagaries made his concierge
laugh until she wept, has done more
by his discoveries to revolutionize So
ciety, and even modern war, than a
Bismarck and a Moltke combined.

RUSSIA AS A CUSTOMER.

The fear that the fall of the Dar-
danelles would be injurious to the
American who grows wheat, by max
ing a market for Russian wheat, may
be true. 1t can not be definitely
stated yet. But if it is true, it
is offset by the conviction that
the American manufacturer will
profit equally as we'll. An Off
cial invitation from Petrograd was
sent to the United States in the early
days of the struggle in Europe. sug-
gesting Russia was prepared to buy
from us the $20O,OOO.000 worth of
manufactures it formerly had been
getting from Germany.
The opening of the Dardanelles is
depended upon to afford direct and
safe route for American shipments
and a means whereby Russia can snip
her wheat and obtain the money to
buy from us. Shipments to Vladivo-
stock escape the perils of the war
zone, but involve the long haul
through Siberia.
The only need for the United States
is treaty with Russia. The existing
treaty in former President Taft's ad-
ministration was abrogated because
of the passport issue, An effort now
is being made to obtain an exclusively
commercial treaty. This will pre-
pare the way for Russia and the
United States as customers.

The Open Column
The Field Prize.

Editor The Missourian:-On the
tomb of Phaeton is inscribed the fol-
lowing verse: Driver of Phoebus'
chariot, Phaeton,
Struck by Jove's thunder lies beneath
this stone.
He could not rule his fathers car of
fire,
Yet was it much SO nobly to aspire"
With these lines in mind every one
should try for the Field prize. Don't
say l can't write verse, just try.
Verse writing teaches two of the
most important features of good writ
ing, vocabulary and condensation. In
searching for rhymes one must find
numerous synonyms. Verse requires
words expressing the most delicate
shades of meaning.
One might say verse is closely kin
to writing headlines. The rythm is
so exacting that a thought must be
squeezed into the barest space possf-
BILE.
Don't be one of those supercilious
persons, who never venture a trial
for the prize, but when it is awarded,
stand about and tell you what rotten
verse the winner wrote. Try for the
Field prize and If you fail, you have
failed in a great undertaking.

One Good Story

A Sunday school teacher was in
structing class of small boys on the
subject "Willing Workers." At the
close of the lesson she said, "Now
boys, what is it God wants?"
A small boy waved his hand fran

lad replied: "He wants hired man."

THE SPRING CLEANUP.

Along with other harbingers of
spring comes the plans of the Civic
League to campaign against dirt the
last week in April. But this harbin-
ger is in the robin class and is just as
welcome as the pretty feathered visi-
tors. Columbia could very nicely
stand a good washing, sweeping and
busting in the latter part of April, or
even sooner. Columbia needs a
cleanup week." in which all the
town is innerestedly active.
And then after her period of reno
waiting streets, alleys, vacant lots and
driveways, Columbia will well in
augurate plans for a city beautiful.
The planting of flowers in vacant lots,
the determination of weeds, the elimi-
nation of tin cans and rubbish, the
making of city beautiful and
healthy space to live in, is a lauda-
BILE aim for the Civic League, or for
any resident of this city. The Civic
League should have its ordinance
providing for the care of non-resi-
dence and vacant property. 1t is nee
essary that tie city recognize the
work of this organization in the en-
forcement of the "city beautiful" idea
where property is owned by a nom
resident who cares nothing for the
looks and health of the location as
against the expense and trouble the
beautifying of the lot would cause.

EVERY FARM A FACTORY

lhe opportunity. OF tine Town lies
in the country. The country can
get along without the town, but no
town ever has or ever will be
permanently prosperous where the
land is poor. The town is built on
farm profits; on what farmers pro-
duce in excess of their home needs.
Towns are the natural evolution
and outgrowth of necessity-places
to store and distribute the worlds
surplus products through the chan
nels of commerce. There is but
one road to permanent city build
ing-that road leads to the farm.
Business is so sympathetic, so sem
sitive to crop production, that the
forecast of a poor wheat or corn
crop effects the markets of the
world. When the harvest fields
smile, towns wax fat, and factories
increase the pay roll. Corn, wheat.
and hay, beef, pork and poultry
these are the soil builders, the home
builders, the builders of great cities
Towns are beginning to look tc
the country, out in the fields OF
growing corn and wheat and hay
Here lies opportunity;-for the fu
ture of the city, strange as it may
seem, is out in the country, hidde1

We must not forget that every
farm is a factory, and that in every
state there are thousands of thes.

DEATH CLAIMS THEo. CURRY

Two weeks ago we stated in

ry had gone to St. Paul to re-

week we give the sad news of
his death. He has been under
the physicians care for some
time and at first it was thought
that he was suffering from ner-
veous trouble but as the disease
deueloped other complications
were discovered. A week ago
an operation was decided upon
and a cancerous growth was
found just below the stomach,
and hope of his permanent re-
covery was given up.
A few days ago his relatives
were called to his bedside and
we're there when the end came
shortly after one o'clock Tues
day morning, June 1st.
The remains were prepared
for burial and brought home
yesterday. The funeral will be
held this afternoon at two o.

rest in the Hope Cemetery.

over the winnings made by the
state at the Californian expositions.
In speaking of the success of

"We went in to win and we sue
coded to a degree beyond our fond

which were won from every hamlet,
