Glass of 1915 Holds Reunion.

: Last. Saturday evening the class
Of 1915 had a reunion at the old
picnic grounds northeast of the race
track. Sixteen of the original twen-
ty-eight met at the High School
building and started off at seven
fifteen, laden with boxes and bundles
and possessed with huge appetites
The "grub" committee an always
important trio in the class, had pre-
pared an ideal picnic supper which
was greatly enjoyed-especially the
''hot dogs" After every crumb had
disappeared they spent some time
talking over the good old times
spent in the Warren High School
and reading letters from absent
memfers. Then they started down
town, stopping at every corner to
give their yells and class song. At
Haney's they stopped for refresh
ments after which the crowd broke
up, all expressing the desire that
there might be many more such re-
unions of the class of 1915.

The Birth of a Nation"

The greatest attraction in Warren
this week, besides the county fair,
was, without a shadow of a doubt,
the presentation of the great million
dollar moving picture drama, "The
Birth Of a Nation,' which depicts
one of the most thrilling periods in
American history, slavery and civil
war times and the years of recon
struction. Outside of the subject
matter, the play is in itself won
der from a mechanical point of view.
The horrors of the battle field as
well as all other scenes presented
are very realistic. A scene that
touched all hearts was one showing
the assassination Of Abraham Lin
coin. No one who has seen the
play can very well want war, The
music rendered by the large orches-
ira, as each picture is presented on
the screen, is an important part of
the production.
Manager Hanson deserves credit
for his enterprise in bringing this
great play to Warren. Many people
have come here from distant towns
specially to see this drama. Two
performances have been given each
day, in the afternoon and in the
evening, to full houses.

of Warren

subscribe to such an arrangement,
and he hoped the United States will
take no step which will preclude it
from being leader for world peace.
Until this agreement can be made it
may be well for the United States
to have an army and navy of rea-
sonable strength to protect US
against dishonor, but we ought to be
he first to disarm after the agree
ment is signed. The United States
should be the leader and exponent
of higher and nobler standard
among the nations Of the earth. He
hoped that the trouble with Mexico
may be settled justly to the Mexi-
cans and with honor to the United
States. We went down into Cuba,
drove away tyranny, oppression and
disease, helped establish stable
government and then turned the is
land over to it's own people to gov
ern themselves. This unselfsh act
is the marvel of the world. May
our dealing with the Mexican people
be just as unselfsh, and our flag
there just as unsullied Mr.. Peter
son closed with an eloquent perora-
tion on the grandeur of American
citizenship.
The song America led by the War
rem City Band and joined in by the
audience closed the exercises at the
park. In conclusion let US state
that too much praise can not be
given the Warren City Band for the
excellent music it furnished both at
the park and at the fair grounds.
Under the able leadership of E. N.
Dahlof, the new director, wlles4 has
recently iiocatted mere, the Warren
band will help place Warren on the
map, just as our base ball team is
doing this year. The singing by the
Chorus was also much appreciated.
All present voted the patriotic ex-
ercises the best ever held here.

FAIR WEEK BALL GAMES.
Warren 3; Argyle3.

In one of the hottest diamond bat
ties ever fought in this city, Warren
and Argyle tusseled for nine long
innings with neither side securing
the advantage. Both mines we're
held scoreless until the first of the
seventh, when Argyle rallied strong
and brot in three runs. Warren
came back with added ginger, but
were unable to score more than one
run in the same frame. In the
eighth and ninth Argyle was unable
to score, while Warren run in two
during the two innings, making the
game result in a tie in the ninth
with the score standing to 3. The
game was called in this inning on
account of darkness.
Halbert was on the mound for
Warren and threw an excellent
game though at some times he
weakened as did his support by his
fellow players. Sholders did the
stellar work for Argyle and was in
good form securing eight strike outs
to his credit.
The features Of the game were
three base hits by Cline and Foster
of the Warren nine and one by
Gooselaw of the Argyle aggregation.
Both mines secured hits apiece.
The attendance at this game was
over 1,200, being the largest crowd
that ever witnessed base ball game
in this city.

COLUMBIA A CITY OF PEACE
The Mayor Happy Over Conditions
Prevailing Here Now.

The mayor was in a contented
mood. In his Office yesterday it gave
him gret pleasure to take a few
minutes off to talk to a visitor about
Columbia. Never" he said with a
happy smile, have conditions in Co.
lumbia been more favorable than they
are today. There is no disturbance
from any source, and peace and har-
mony prevails in all parts of the city.
The only thing that gives us any
trouble is an occasional bOot-legSer
among the negroes and he is soon
caught and that ends it.
ITO keep down all breaches, viola
tions and infringements of the law
would be impossible, but l do really
think that we are now dealing with
the minimum quantity of law break
ing, to have none would be ideal con-
ditions which we are not yet able to
claim.
at would be just as reasonable to
expect stock to stay out of a green
pasture, around which there was no
fence, as to expect some people not
to Overstep their bounds.
There may be some developments
at the council meeting tonight"

sKEWPIES, INVADE SEDALIA
Coach SchOOler Scheduled TOday's
Game Unexpectedly.


The Columbia High School football
team invaded foreign territory today
for the first time this season when
1t went to Sedalia to play the high
school team there this afternoon.
Coach Durward Schooler scheduled a
game yesterday afternoon with Sc
dallas last years state high school
champions. Schooler and fourteen
football players accompanied by sew
eral boy and girl rooters went to Sc
dalia this morning. The team is in
perfect condition.
TOday's game will show what pros
poets Columbia has to win the state
high school championship, as it did in
1914 with E. NJ. Todd coaching and
the present coach as captain. Co.
lumbia defeated Jefferson City High
School 6S to 0, and Jefferson City beat
Sedalia by small score. This shows
Columbia has the strongest team.
Columbia will have a tough battle
Friday when it meets the Kemper
Academy at the Fairgrounds.
High school students probably will
have a mass meeting Thursday to
get up pep" for the game.

eight members of the team from the
Columbia company. "Yes, the fellows
are having a pretty easy time of it,
with nothing to do but lie around and
do what somebody tells them to do"
continued Mr.. White. But most of
them would prefer working hard at
home Those who blame Captain E.
E. Major for being responsible for
the retention of the fellows from the
University are mistaken, however. He
accepted their applications for dis
charge and sent them on. Before
these reached headquarters, the law
prohibiting individual students from
being discharged had been passed.
Captain Major Is in no way respon-
sible for their being held. That is
part of the war game"
Mr.. White will leave Columbia to-
morrow evening for Evanston. He
will be Joined in Chicago by Mrs.
White, who has been visiting in Con-
necticut.
Sergeant James Lipscomb and Cor
poral Horace Smith arrived in Colum-
