After His Visit Here.

Missouri has every reason for pride
ana satisfaction in her agricultural
experiment station" says T.. W. Allen
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. who recently inspected
the station in Columbia. in a letter to
J. o. Rankin. agricultural editor.
THE station is engaged in a work
of far greater usefulness TO the farm
ing industry and through its investiga-
ton is discovering many important
and far reaching facts which it is ap-
plying in the development of farm
practice 1t is an inspiration to come
to the station and to examine its work
in a great variety of lines Your state
has shown its appreciation and con-
fidemce by the generous appropriations
to supplement the Federal funds. The
itation and the farm industry deserve
the support given and a splendid re-
turn is made for it,
Mr.. Allen says that it is especially
fitting that this station should be one
of the leading stations in the country
because the measure for the national
system of experiment stations was
introduced in Congress and passed in
that body through the Efforts of a Mis-
sourian-William II. Hatch. formerly

THE STUDENT.ALUMNI UNION

Would the proposed Student-Alumni
Union be a benefit?
Much of the value Of a college edu-
cation admittedly comes from contact
with many men. NarrOwness and pro
vincialism are destroyed by the AZ
quaintance of men of varied ideas. The
union would provide comfortable
louneing rooms. where the students
could meet between classes. Because
it in this way would promote gooI-fel-
lowship, the union would be good
thing.
The union building would also house
a swimming pool, convention hall.
rooms for the sessions of student as
sOciations, offices for student publica-
items, and lodgings for returned alum
nj. 1t would be built by contributions
of students. alumni and the state and
would be supported by dues from stu
dents and alumni.

Generally speaking, it takes push
10 start things.
The Student-Alumni Union idea at
the University was languishing toward
an ntimely end, with lots of good
wishes and flowers but not much
active work, when c. B. Rollins, a
member of the Board of CuratOrs,
graduate of the University in 1874,
starts the ball rolling with donation
of 81 900
The Union idea is fine one" says
sir. Rollins. But he does more than
merely express his good wishes in
words.
Tomorrow morning the Alumni As
sOciation of the University will meet
TO discuss the union idea.
One alumnus has given the first
push. What will the others do?

These pictures show why the tru-
ant officer is so seldom called upon
TO go in search of Benton School pu-
pills. The boys of today can have a
better time at school than they can
away from school. The playground
equipment at Benton School was all
maue by the manuai training pupils
of the fifth and sixth grades: so the
boys know it is good and will not
break under stress.
The apparatus is constructed with
that eye to strength and safety which
is shown by those who build things
for their own use. The oak posts of
the giant stride. the horizontal bar, the
see-saw, the swings and the basket
ball court are set in cement The bar
of the see-saw passes through a block
which is bOltcd to. the board so that
the board keeps its proper place and
does not slip all around like the i'm
prOvised see-saws their fathers were
used TO. The swing ropes have longer
life by being fastened to rings on the
bar instead of to the bar itself. The
see-saw and the swing are made lower
at one end for the little tots.
Benton is the only ward school that
provides manual training for pupils
of the fifth and sixth grades. Two
