VICE PRESIDENT OF
TRAILS ASSOCIATION

DR.. l. S. Harold was elected vice
president of the National Old Trails
Road association at the annual con-
vention held at Grand Canyon, accord
ing to information received here to-
day from Judge J. NJ. Lowe, national
president. C. A. Kenyon of Indianapo-
lis also was elected vice president.
Judge Lowe speaks in glowing
terms of the road enthusiasm shown
in the west. He indicates that red
hot campaign to finish the road from
the Mississippi to the Pacific in the
next twelve months is now on. The
last 80 miles of the road is being built
with concrete.
A state convention is being held at
Albuquerque today to devise means OF
financing the road across New Mexi-
CO. Judge Lowe compares the enter
prise of the men of that state. where
one county is as large as a whole state
in the east and where population is
little, with the lack of enthusiasm
shown in eastern states
Judge Lowe wants the National road
taken over by the government and
maintained for all time by the govern
ment.
The slogan in California. New Mexi
CO and Arizona is Build the road in
twelve months or do not build it at

road movement in that time has set

The French pavilion at the Pana-

tic and cultural merits.
II the French pavilion had been
only one-half as beautiful, complete
and attractive as 1t is, or even one
tenth as attractive, congratulations
and praises would have been rendered
the people and the government of
France, for commonplace, average
exhibit would have been remarkable,
considering the tremendous handicap
imposed by the war. Right in the
midst of its titanic struggle for ex-
istence, when apparently every one
OF its energies was required for the
supreme efforts 1t was making to
maintain intact its ancient and ma
1estic national prestige and place,
France determined to be represented
at San Francisco. But instead of con-
tenting itself with fairly good. me-
diocre showing, it has achieved
masterpiece. Applying itself to its
task as II that task alone concerned
it. as though no war or rumor Of
war disturbed its meditations, and
drawing upon their wonderful gift Of
good taste which in the French char
acter assumes the force of creative
genius, the nation has contributed to
the Panama-Pacific International Elk
position an exhibit that is great
work OF art as a whole, and in all of
it's parts.
France is bound to the United
States by many powerful and fra
ternal ties. French missionaries dis
covered and explored vast areas Of
its territory. Frances sword, in the
hands OF Lafayette and Rochambeau
and Of many others, helped notably
in this country's struggle for indie
pendence. French blood was not
merely spilled freely for the service
of America; it also flows strongly in
the veins OF large proportion OF its
people. Crownin; all, as a most ap-
propriate memory at this time and
this occasion, is the fact that it was
a Frenchman, Champlain, the dis
coverer, who three centuries ago in
1900 first suggested the idea of the
Panama Canal

frame and a potent factor in the en-

BIBLE READING.

Sermons, aphorisms and chopped
up Sunday School lessons too often
prejudice us against Bible reading.
In our prejudice we are likely to for
get that we are neglecting a most
wonderful store of literature.
The Pentateuch has more perfect
law than Blackstone The Prophets
are the best of annalists. The Book
of Ruth is an ideal of faith, patience,
industry and tender affection. The
scriptures sparkle with poetry, song,
music and inspiration. TIE Book of
Kings has the battle clash for the
military reader. No modern book
breathes such fortitude as does the
Book of Job. No author excels La
mentations in pathetic tenderness.
John was a master of newspaper re-
porting. Scarcely a field of endeavor
can be named for which the Bible
does not offer help.

a scoring system and premiums be-
ing an incentive to this, and to keep
an account OF all expenses and re-
ceipts. When their products are
ready to sell they are given member
ship cards and the people of the town
are asked to patronize them. In this
way the children are given chance
to earn some money in addition to the
prizes offered at the end of the sea-
son.
If carefully looked after such a
plan can be made practical; it affords
one good solution of the vacant lot
problem and is a good thing to have
both from the standpoint of the city's
looks and the children's pastime.

wANTED-MoRE TRACK MEN
Greater Material Than Ever Before,
But That Makes the Stars.

Greater Material Than Ever Before
But That Makes the Stars.
Track athletics at the University
of Missouri present quite a different
aspect now than they did FIVE years
ago. Now when a track team enters
meet there are usually several good
men entered in each event. Five years
ago if there was one good man, II
was good showing. Two men for
one event was considered windfall
of good fortune.
This year there are large number
of men out for track, but there is still
room for many more. There are al
most a score of broad jumpers who
will try out when the time comes.
There are two good pole vaulters and
several not so good. There are half
a dozen men who can put the shot
at least thirty-six feet. Five years
ago there was only one man who
could do this. In the sprints there
are large number of aspirants and
also several good hurdlers. There
are a couple of high jumpers who can
clear the bar at six feet. But 1t must
be remembered that the other schools
in the Valley also have material just
as good and the more men who go
out for track, the better the chance
for uncovering a star.
The most significant thing about
the track squad this year is that all
but about three of the men are soph-
omores and freshmen.
Present indications are that the
track team will make good showing
this year, but there are some weak
spots that must be bolstered up.
There is plenty of opportunity for i'm
provement in the mile, two mile, 220-
yard dash and the weights. New ma
terial would aid greatly in strength
ening these weak points and there is

SOMETHING WRONG THERE.

An assistant of the attorney gener-
al of New Jersey thinks that he
doesn't earn his salary. All that he
has had to do for his little stipend of
$500 year has been to sign the
name of the attorney general to legal
papers several times when his chief
was away. 1t was all right for
awhile. But now he has become
ashamed of taking the monthly check
and has asked the legislature to abol-
ish his office.
His action is revolutionary to say
the least. and opens the way for all
manner of speculation as to what
kind of man he really is. Certainly
here is a new type Of Office holder,
one who is not satisfied with doing
the simple duties that fall to his lot.
but must try to force back upon the
people of the state the money they
have provided for his sustenance.
Since it is in New Jersey, where SO
many strange things have happened,
in all probability he will succeed in

The Open Column
Man,s Spring Clothing.

Editor The Missourian:-If the
young man of this spring is dressed
up to the minute, he resembles Jo-
seph's coat. Time was when a youth
deemed a suit of solid color best.
None thought of wearing hat IL 1t
was not of the conservative make.
Trousers were wide and the coat good
and long. In other words the buyer
sought quantity as well as quality for
his money.
Today-well 1t is neither quantity
nor conservatism that makes appeals
to the taste Of the modest youth. The
coat-the top coat, must have at least
three different shades of purple, red
and green. The suit should match the
top coat and II that is impossible it
must have a variety of colors. The
trousers must be remarkably tight
fit-so tight in fact, that it often has
the same tendency that is attributed
to the hobble skirt-a menace to ac-
ton.
But to top OF all the others and to
make the well dressed man as con-
spicuous as possible the hat must be
of some loud color with pretty con-
trasting band, and if possible the two
colors should lack harmony. The hat
should have high crown and be dented
in several ways with no particular
style. r.

UNIVERSITY MIssOURIAN
Thursday, April 1, 1s15)


Citizens of Columbia certainly
have right to demand that their
trees be not mutilated. The admins
tration has an equal right to demand
that the trees must not interfere with
such public services as the street
lighting system. Fortunately the
people of each side see the others DO
sition and are ready to cooperate in
the conservation of the trees.
Since this question has aroused
general interest it might be well to
say that Columbia has some unusual
advantages at her service in the de-
partments of forestry and horticul-
ture of the University. Trees need to
be cared for by experts if the work
is properly done. Instructors and ad-
vanced students in forestry and hor-
ticulture would be of great value in
this work. Why not make use of
them?
Superintendent Fawks of the water
and light department says rightly
that the trees must be trimmed away
from the wires if they are not to be
damaged by the electric currents and
made dangerous to passersby. If the
city could appoint some of these
trained men to supervise the trim
ming, it would be a great help. Like
wise If any citizen wanted his trees
cared for, he might be able to get one
of these men to advise and help him,
with the result that the work would be
done properly and at much lower
cost than if tree doctors from some
other place were called in.
Wouldn't it be well, at least, to see
what the men in the forestry and hor-
ticulture departments could and would
do?

Problem Of Missionary Support
Il think this is done," said the
housewife as she tested the evenly
Drowned layer cake with straw. "Now
what kind of icing shall make. Last
week made white cake; so this time
I think I'll make a chocolate one." The
same thing probably was being dis
cussed in seventy-five other kitchens In
Columbia. Women who are members
of church missionary society have
found that being a member of the
Woman's Exchange has made it cas-
Ter for them to raise money for the
missionary work.
The Exchange was established last
fall by several church women. They
had been accustomed to make fancy
work and cook dainties which they con-
tributed TO a window sale on Saturday
morning. The money raised was used
for mission work. Now they Join the
Exchange for a small fee and sell their
goods paying twenty per cent Of the
sales to the Exchange.
The Exchange is self-supporting. 1t
started with a few members whose
numbers now have increased to sew
enty-five. Some of the women belong
to the missionary society, others are
Columbia women interested in cooking
and who wish to make little pin
money. Girls, too. have joined. and
