proposed to run for one or the other
office.

The Baptists Of Missouri are pre-
pairing to raise $1,000,00O of which
s250,000 will be given to Hardin Col

even more solid basis than they are
today and give it ample opportunity
to make the many planned improve
ments which lack of funds has retard-
ed.
Stephens college at Columbia will
receive $250,00O also and the remain
ing 100000 will be given to William
Jewel College at Liberty. The fund
will be raised by statewide cam

it in such way that the fund has
been growing steadily each year. He
placed the school on safe basis and
it has always had splendid men at its
head. President John w. Million has
brought the school to a place few col
leges in the West can attain and this
new fund will mean great things fol
