HIS DEATH WAS DUE TO FRIGHT
John Lange Collapsed While Demand
ing Settlement for Motor Damage.

Word has been received here that
the death of John Lange, former busi-
ness manager for Blind Boone, may
have been due to fright caused by an
automobile accident.
Lange was driving his car along
Sixteenth street in Kansas City, when
another car bumped into his, bending
the fender As the other machine
drove off, Lange gave chase. Catch
ing up he demanded settlement. He
suddenly collapsed and died in a near
by drug store.
Dr. l.. ]. Pierce of the emergency
hospital, who responded to the call.
was of the opinion that fright at the
moment of the collision may have
caused a cerebral hemorrhage that
produced death later.

BOY SCOUTS HIKE TO HINTON
Eighteen "Tenderfeet" Camp After a
Five.Mile Walk With Packs.

Are your canteens full?" was the
last question asked by Mervin Black,
scOutmaster, before he, with eight
Boy Scouts, started out on hike to
Hinton, five miles north of here. Sat
urday evening.
The boys were dressed in uniforms
for the occasion, with packs on their
backs and blankets over their shOul-
ders. Nearly all had canteens filled,
for the road to Hinton was long and
the sun was still hot when the party
left.
That evening they camped out, some
of them for the first time, for the
eight were in the "tenderfoot" class
The next morning the boys took their
first examinations in scOutcraft,
which consisted of trailing, running,
jumping and cooking. These events
lasted the whole morning.
After the boys had eaten dinner
they broke camp and returned to Co
lumbia last evening.

OFFICE BOY GETS WAR HONORS
Paris L. p. Lad Chooses Leave For
Bravery in Trenches.
By HENRY WOOD

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS, July l (by maiD Every
United Press office boy in America, and
all the other Office boys as far as that
is concerned, will be glad to know that
Jean Villier, an Office boy in the Paris
Office Of the United Press, has been
cited in the order of the day several
times for conspicuous bravery in the
French trenches.
Villier is now 10 and has been at the
French front for a year and a half
A year ago he received his first cita-
tion and was given for recompense
the choice between the decoration Of
the Croix de Guerre or six days leave
at Paris. He disdainfully rejected the
former and took the latter
The joy of being back in Paris prov
ed too much for Jean, and he over
stayed his leave two days. He was
taken before the commanding .gener-
al and for punishment ordered to the
rrOnt-line trenches.
1t so happens that after Paris there
is no place in the world that Jean
loves more dearly than the front-line
trenches. 1t is the only place at the
front where man has a chance to
perform those conspicuous deeds of
bravery that win him citations with
their accompanying war crosses-or
trips to Paris. It took Jean but a little
time to put two and two together and
work out his system.
Since then Jean has been cited to
the order of the day four different
times. Each time he has taken his six
days leave at Paris instead of the War
Cross Each time at Paris he has
overstayed his leave two days. and
each time upon his return to the front
he has been ordered to the front-line
trenches.
Jean thinks his system beats any
thing that anybody ever worked out
for Monte Carlo or anywhere else.

LIBRARIAN, AT 81.
ENJOYS COLUMBIA VISIT

Eighty-one years old, thirty-eight
years a school teacher in one town,
four years a librarian in the same
town, with only a weeks vacation, and
still as enthusiastic and interested in
life as the youngest beginner in the
world of work-all this is the record
of Miss Sarah Jane Larrabee of Ma
con, Mo-, who was a visitor i'm Column
bia last week.
Miss Larrabee is tall, erect, white
haired, keen-eyed The corners of her
mouth turn up irresistibly. In fact,
those upturned corners express her
philosophy of life. She is never bored
by anyone she says, because she al
ways finds something worth while to
remember about every person she
meets. Life is good, and people are
kind, and opportunities are always
awaiting the traveller who has come to
the turn in the road. Square pegs and
round holes do not exist in Miss Lar
rabee's world.
Her work in Macon is a new vol
ume in the history of the public Ii
braries of Missouri. Four years ago
she began library work, with the
backing of the d. A. r. of that town.
One hundred volumes lent by the Lii
brary Commission were all that the
new venture could boast The eli
brary'' was in a store building. Two
thousand volumes and a $12,5OO build
ing, to be ready for occupancy in
January, are the increased equipment.
While Miss Larrabee gives all the
credit to the support of the D. A. R.,
Miss Elizabeth B. Wales. secretary
of the State Library Commission, who
is in town for the summer library
work, says that this ever-young oc-
togenarian is the real source of the
library enthusiasm Through her own
University Missourian., 1916-07-24

efforts she collected the 1000 volumes
many OF them contributed by pupils
whom she taught during her thirty
eight years of public school service
at Macon. To each she wrote a let
ter, and the letters were answered
with books or money to buy books,
says Miss Wales.
during the four years that the Ii
brary work has been under her
charge, Miss Larrabee has moved her
books from store building to ice-cream
parlor, then to the basement of the
Episcopal Church, which was burned,
then to the Sunday school room of the
Christian Church, then to a separate
building and finally to a little cot
tage, once a lawyers office, consist
ing of two rooms. The S12,50O build
ing now being constructed is the gift
of Macon business men and the city
has promised an annual grant equal to
10 per cent of the building fund.
Miss Larrabee came to Macon in
1863 from her home in Maine, and
has remained there since. Her visit
to Columbia was her first vacation in
four years and the second trip she
has ever made here Much to her de-
light, for her first visit was made in
an all-day rain, she still knew her
way to the Columns and the campus.
Her stay at the Kappa Kappa Gamma
house-her first experience in a So
rority house, Miss Larrabee said
laughingly-and the number of young
persons she had met,-"A thousand,
I'm sure"-and all the new things she
found in the library school and the
library work were the high lights of
her visit. And as enthusiastically as
any freshman Miss Larrabee said,
"Oh, I'm just carried away with Co.
lumbia,"

JUDGE LOWE GIVES ROAD ADVICE
Tells Counties How to Obtain Recent.
Iy Offered Federal Aid.

Advice to Missouri counties as to
how to proceed to build roads and Sc
cure federal aid under the recent $685.
100000 appropriation of Congress is
contained in letter which Judge ].
VI. Lowe, president of the National
Old Trails Road. is sending out to
various inquirers in the state. The
text of his letter follows:
The simple and sure way to share
in the benefits of the road bill re-
Gently passed by Congress is to adopt
the countrywide bond system. You
can build a county system of say 200
miles at less average cost than by any
other system, and all property is tax
ed equally, including railroads, cor
porations, banks, merchants, town
lots, etc.
By organizing now and adopting
this system you will be able to apply
through the state highway commits
sioners office and the national Sec
retary of Agriculture for a share in
the national appropriation. If you
wait until this appropriation is ex-
hausted you will not receive any of its
benefits.
A greater opportunity to build, per-
manent highways at minimum cost
to the taxpayer has never before ex-
listed. Appoint a committee to map
and designate your county system and
present a petition for a bond election
to your county court; also name
campaign committee and advisory
committee, if desired, to cooperate
with the court in letting all con-
tracts. The same committee can also
cooperate in making application for
this federal aid.
Opportunity is knocking at your
door as never before This office will
aid you in every possible way-Sun-
day Kansas City Star.
