and four months later he left
San Francisco for the Mexican
border in command of the eighth
brigade. On August 81 of last
year his wife, who was Frances
Warren daughter of United
States Senator Francis E. War
rem of Wyoming, and three of
their little children were burned
to death in the fire at the Pre-
sidio in San Francisco.
His First Duty
Gen. Pershing's first duty af-
ter being graduated from West
Point, where his rank as senior
cadet captain stamped him as
the nearest of his classmates to
the ideal of a soldier, was to
plunge into the campaigns that
destroyed the power of Geron-
limo and opened the southwest
to a tardy civilization.
He was assigned to the old
Sixth Cavalry, and in August of
1887, scarcely a year from school,
he was complimented by Gen.
Miles for marching his troop,
with pack train, over rough
country, 140 miles in forty-six
hours bringing in every animal
and man in good condition"
In 1889 Lieut.. Pershing res
cued a party of horse thieves
and cowboys who were beseiged
by hostile Zunis without firing

Last Chance at the Ok Marble
1t is time to remove the OK
Tarble which now appears as
about the size of a pig
con egg under the skin on the
backs of cattle. If allowed to re-
main they leave holes in the
skin of the animal which reduces
its selling price and makes the
beef near the grub Shiny and
green. The butcher does not
like this clicked beef"
The best treatment as sugges-
ted by T. j. Talbert of the Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture is
the usual method of pressing
the grubs out through the open
ing at the top of the swelling. A
sharp knife and a pair of tweez-
ers will often make the work
easier. The grubs should be
chushed to prevent their develop
ing into the flies which next
summer lay the eggs that hatch
into other grubs. The backs of
the cattle should be examined
every two or three weeks.
Oils are sometimes smeared
over the infested region with
fair success and cattle that are
too wild or too numerous to be
handled otherwise are put
through dipping watts. The OBJ
lection to these methods is that
the wounds do not heal well I'M
less the grubs are removed.

UNIVERSITY STUDENT
PAY OWN EXPENSES

Free Employment Bureau Is
Maintained at Columbia by
Y. w. C. A.
One-third of all the men stu
dents in the University of Mis-
souri, at Columbia either work all
or part of their way through
school, according to a bulletin
recently issued by the Y. M. C.
A. at the University.
The Y. N. C. A. maintains a
free employment bureau to as
sist students in obtaining en-
ployment. Columbia is not a
large city but the citizens and
the faculty are in sympathy
with students who are working
and turn over all the work pos
sible to them. The student who
intends to work his way through
school should have at least $3.50
when he reaches Columbia. Stu
dents who do not work have
gone through the first year with
1925 and even less, but the Y.
MICA. authorities say that the
average cost is from $3.50 to
$500 a year. During the first
year it is hard to obtain work,
but as the student becomes bet
ter acquainted the jobs are more
frequent and by the second sem
ester many students are self
supporting, and they can get
their jobs without the aid of the
employment bureau.
No man should plan to work
his way through college unless
it is absolutely necessary for him
to do so, says ]. S. Moore, Sec
rotary of the Y. M. C. A. There
is not enough work in Columbia
for these students who need it.
The following are some of the
kinds of work done by students:
Janitor work, farm work, wait
ing tables, pressing clothes,
clerking, musical work, tutoring,
general office work, stenography
and typewriting, bookkeeping,
laboratory assistance, problem
reading and odd jobs. Unskilled
labor, is paid fifteen or twenty
cents an hour skilled labor, such
as typewriting and bookkeeping,
twenty-five cents an hour. Musi-
clans, printers and the like earn
more.

PERSHING HOLDS RECORD
FOR ARMY ADVANCEMENT
Roosevelt, When President Pro-
NOTED Him Over Heads of
1862 Other Officers

Ever since he came out of West
Point in 1886 as senior cadet
captain, the highest honor there,
Brig.-Gen. John j. Pershing has
been living and fighting battles
that fit him prominently to deal
with Villa and his followers.
Gen. Pershing was ten years
in the southwest, fighting Ger
= onimo and his Apaches. He was
in the Spanish War with a negro
regiment and was called by his
colonel the bravest and coolest
man under fire he had ever seen,
and he accomplished the extra
ordinary difficult task of sub
jugating the Moros in the Phil
ippines.
1t was for all of these things
probably, but chiefly for his
work in the Philippines, that

Gen Carr. There were other
recommendations which he won
during the ten years of service
in the Department of Arizona
during the desperate clashes
there.
His next post was back at
West Point as tactial officer, but
in 1898 at his own request he re-
joined his regiment, the Tenth
Cavalry, and went to the Spanish
war. He was promoted for gal
lantry at the Battle of Ell Caney
in Cuba and returned from San
.tiago to Washington to solve
the problems as the head of the
division of customs and insular
affairs.
It was in September, 1899,
that he was assigned to duty in
the Philippines, again at his
own request, and he became
Adjutant-G General, executive Of
fcer, of the Department of Min
uanao and Jolo. There he studied
the Moro problems" and in
June, 1901, he was sent out sin
gle handed to cope with the old
problem which Spain had shirked
and which revolved about Lake

Barbara, Popular Name for
Girls, Has a History That
Goes Back to Early Saints

The revival of the name Barbara as
a common proper appellation for girls
draws attention to its origin. This
name Barbara is especially interesting
in that it, i'm common with three 9TH
ers, has been made the representative
of an idea in the annals Of the Roman
Catholic church. Agnes, Katharine,
Margaret and Barbara are the four
great virgin saints revered with pas
sionate fervor, because the fact that
around these women crystallized
many widely separated allegOries and
traditions.
Finally Agnes came TO represent the
triumph of innocence Margaret the vic
tory through faith. Katharine the eX-
treme of intellectual devotion, and
Barbara that of artistic conservation.
Saint Barbara is the especial patron
of architects and of their art in its eX-
preston of religion. 1t is said that she
was a maiden of Heliopolis, who be-
came a Christian and desired to hon
or the chief mystery of the creed In
some enduring form. When she OBJ
served a certain bath chamber being
constructed with only two windows, as
had always been the custom until that
time, she insisted that three entrances
for light should be built. For this act
of rebellion her cruel father flew into
demoniac rage, and with his own hands
beheaded the inspired maiden.
Instantly a terrific storm arose, as
If the very elements cried out their
loudest aprotest against the horrible
deed. To an accompaniment of crash
ing and reverbating thunder the
evil creature was destroyed by light
ming bolt.
From architectures Saint Barbara
became the patron of engineers. she
was always the protectress from thun-
der and afterward from its imitator,
artillery. In French ships the ammun-
milton room is still known as "la sainte
barbe."
Philologists tell us that the name is
derived from the Greek root bar,
which means strong, and that it is
repetition of the primitive peoples
reduplicated barbar (very Strong).
From the same root came the Latin
barbarus and our own barbaric mean
ing wild cruelty and rude Ignorance
or ill-adapted splendOr.

Deterioration of Eskimo
BY Contact With White Man
DiScredit to "CiviIization"

II is or ought to be IA little disquiet-
ing 10 all accustomed TO think well of
themselves as civilized" in distinction
from "barbarouS" or savage" to note
the quick deterioration in the EskimoS
reported by Doctor Anderson ms the re-
suit of contact with white men.
OF course il is Il commonplace Of eth
nology that such contact has always
been iniJFious and often fatal to primi-
tive peoples, but usually the humilia-
tion of this fact has been mitignted by
the possibility of saying that the primi-
tives suffered because the first visitors
were eXpOnents of the vices rather
than the virtues of iviliZation-rOugh
sailors, for instance, or constituencies
traders ruthless in exploiting natures
untutored children This theory would
be the better if in many instances mis-
sionaries of the most respectable sort
had not brought about changes in the
peoples they tried to serve which,
though different from those worked by
