The Open Column
A Suggestion in Sociology.

Editor the Missourian: The Mis-
sourian of last Friday printed in the
Open Column an article of Phil on
bad Housing" saying that Behind
the courthouse. "a student OF sociol-
ogy will learn in an hour what he will
never learn in a days reading" Nov
permit me to ask, Why does not Mr..
Phil suggest that the department of
sociology give some sort of laboratory
work to the student? If assignments
be given to a certain number of stu
dents to cover certain districts and
give lectures on the hygiene of housing
or something of the sort, these stu
dents will learn more. Mr.. Phil, for
they will have practical work; then
they will be contributing to mankind
their service toward helping and teach
ing the ignorant. The community will
be thankful for it, too, and the de-
partment of sociology will have dis
covered if certain evils really can be
corrected pathologically or at least re-
lieved. E.P.

Savings departments for small depos-
itors have been organized and at
tractive propositions offered which
called the little boards from broken
tea-cups and old stocking legs into cir
culation. The savings depositor of to-
day, trained in thrift, often becomes
the big depositor of tomorrow, say the
bankers.
Stories of what some persons work.
ing under difficulties have accom-
plished are published throughout the
land as an incentive to others to get
the savings habit. 1t is part of the
advertising campaign of the American
Bankers Association.
There is the story of a garbage man
who saved his dimes. deposited them in
a savings account and a few weeks
ago was able to make the last payment
on house and lot There was a news
boy in Des Moines who deposited q
tiny sum from his paper money each
week until he was able to purchase a
home for his mother. These are just
two instances of the many which
serve as inspiration to further saving
and increased thrift. They are true
stories of common, ordinary people.
Wouldn't it be a wonderful thing If
all the working people, as well as all
the business and professional men
acquired the habit of thrift which the
bankers are trying to teach us?

the fact that prohibitory measurers

Commercial Club is merely a result OF
the dull times that come to every per-

There was no factor of greater in

the old commercial club. Under the
older class of business men, who are
now retiring from active membership.
the club has directed the growth of
the city. Every public improvement
or beneficial movement has had the
support of the commercial club. II
was under these men that the paving
of the streets, the putting up of better
buildings, the advertisement of the
town and the making of Columbia a
real city instead of a country town
was begun. The leaders of the COM
mercial club saw the chance for big
ger growth and brought it about
There is still field for the CONNER
cial club, and the directors are begin
ming to look for it. The selection of
the secretary Of the Retail Merchants
Association as secretary of the club
was the beginning of renewed life.
The former organization fills definite
place, but its field is not SO wide as
that Of the commercial club. The
wider field includes a broad chance for
growth and publicity.
Columbia must have the commercial
club.

OF his own convenience, had divided

Il do not contend that all the busi-
ness of this country will be in
standardized goods, but it seems to me
that We all need to study retailing and
that We should take advantage of our
opportunity. Both for the sake of gen.
eral advertiser and retailer, it is most
desirable that the retailer knows the
source Of his profits. In too many
stores. the goods with the high mark
up which do not sell are resulting in
losses to the retailer and the buying
public is paying interest charges on

THROW LIGHT
ON THE DINCY
BACK YARDS
GUTHRIE WOMAN TELLS
HOW TO MAKE COMMUNE
TY LIFE A PLEASURE

As a tree may be known by its
fruits, so. as general thing, may the
character of ones back yard throw
light upon the personality of its
owner.
OF course, every cabbage patch may
not have its Mrs. Wigs, for many
ladies of that desirable makeup do
not exist in the humblier walks Of life,
or, If they do, they have not found
themselves" but from the patches of
ground one sees II is plain that every
spot is made to have a character of
its own, and that money has compara-
lively little to do with It; that there
are people who make a bowling waste
and desert place to blossom as the
rose.
Take the little square of ground
with fitting lights and shadows fall
ing over the neatly cut green turf free
from weeds. There is a well-kpet
fence over which trails a blossoming
rose or perhaps trellis with a
honeysuckle. The brick walk glistens
with sweeping or repeated washing, or
perhaps the walk is simple one of
gravel or cinders. A tiny border of
blooming plants lift their festive
heads. Perhaps some thriving vege-
tables take the place of flowers but
still delightful air of cleanliness,
serenity and comfort is reflected. An
Immediately kept chicken yard and
snowy fowls suggest fresh eggs. No
unkempt household articles suggest
domestic processes, for clotheslines,
cans, milk bottles and other articles
are put away from sight. One feels
like looking over the fence to con-
gratulate the owner on his contribu. /
tion TO pleasant community life.
Then there is the dusty, forsaken
square of ground, that suggests the
deserted village" with rank grass
growing The kindly ministrations of
the broom, lawn mower, hoe or spade
are unknown and sundry tin cans,
broken implements and other undesir- I
able articles obstruct the view. Old |
bits of clothesline are always in sight.
The garbage can is never put away
out of the hot sun.
Over these conditions, we must
charitably draw the veil, and feel
thankful that there are people who are
able and glad to work with heart and
hand for making community life a
pleasure and benefit to their fellow
creatures. Their work may be far
reaching SO that in time all members
Of society will contribute garden
spots which will also be places of
health and comfort for their personal
