Much more might be said, but
we feel that the preceding has
not in any sense over-draWn the
facts, or pictured too lavishly
the life of a man who yet offers
his services to the people of
Southeast Mo. as an experienc-
ed, cultured, refined, Christian
gentleman, who has always been
ready to train young men and
young women to fill the most re-
sponsible positions in life, so as
to steer clear of the unseen
breakers that wreck so many
unframed and unprepared tt
meet them. He is now Presi
dent of the Ozark Business Uni
versity and honored by all stu
dents that have tried to get the
most out of their time while un
der his training.

partment in the Ozark Business
University. He was raised in
this city and has been grown up
in touch with business college
work, so is able to impart the
knowledge with which he is in
oculated, and in the most prac-
tical manner known to the lat
est science of handling the type
writer.
He is a young man Of noble
character and is highly respect
ed by his associates and all who
have had the pleasure to form
his acquaintance.
Mr.. Warden is a graduate of
Pennington High Schools and
has spent two years in the Jun
Tor college work at Carleton Col

the judgment of men, he has
many more years Of usefulness
in store for him, and the Editor
of The Times does not hesitate
to express the hope and desire
that Pennington may be favor
ed by his presence and assistance
during the years yet allotted him,
in whatever vocation he may
/ continue.
! AS founder and organizer OF
the first Moothart Business Col
lege, in DeSoto, nearly 20 years
ago, Professor Moothart's name
has become a household word
throughout Southeast Mo-, and
he probably is as well known as
any professional man who has
ever honored Pennington with
his presence.

Mineral Productions

Valuable as are her other re-

minerals that st. Francois Coun-
ty bases her claim to first place
among the counties Of this part
of the State. A superficial in
vestigation of the vast mines,
the great lead mills, reduction

from mine to mill, will convince
the most skeptical that the
