work, and difficult work, of making

When the job was completed the gen.

out to see and count the boards. The
work was satisfactory and was paid
the hard cash for the job. My en-

something the young people now
know nothing about. The
wheat or oats was cut down and laid
in swaths, then tied up into bundles
and shocked. 1t took quite a while
to harvest 20 or 40 acres of wheat or
oats, and generally eight or ten men
and boys worked in the harvest
fields. People were kind and congo

good women would bring a jug of
buttermilk that had been kept cool
in the we'll or cistern for several
hours, and it was delicious. 1t

Missouri Military
Academy Banquet
The Institution Great Boon for Mex
ico-Needs Larger Equipment and
Is Going On Boom.

One hundred Mexico business men
sat down to a banquet given at Mis-
souri, Military Academy Wednesday
night of last week. There were
numebr of addresses-plans discuss
ed for increasing the capacity of the
school, bettering it's general worth,
and so forth.
MGny who attended the banquet
were greatly elated at some of the
claims of Col e. Y. Burton, Maj. ].
H. Whitmore and Mai. ]. C Strock
and others.
The school has spent near $45,000
here since the opening last fall.
The cadets spend about $1,000
month for incidentals.
The bonded indebtedness of the
school is $4,000, with a floating
debt of 100000. The Academy prop
erty is valued approximately at
100000. About $4,000 is paid
out for salaries in a year. Food
stuffs cost thousands of dollars.
The Academy will take bids for
food supplies in the future.
Col. Burton made the main ad-
dress. He complimented the Mexico
public schools, declaring that we get
more for our money here in the mat
ter of education than in any other
place in the country. "Stand by your
teachers and your school board"
"The Academy pays one-third more
for teachers for our 1876 boys than
you do for 400 boys and girls. We
pay $4,000 year for teachers as
against $4,000 for you.
"The Academy is not a school for
incorrigibles. I'll put my boys
against your town boys as to good
morals. Our boys are here for the
reason that they are crowded out of
their schools at home. We take care.
of them day an& night. We run this
school like you do your business"
Major Whitmore reviewed the fl
nancial conditions of the school.
1t was stated that there would be
bond issue for $4,000 to make
needed improvements. Provision
must be made for an attendance of
200 or 500 students, instead of 1876 as
now.
Major Strock urged that the Mex
leo public should rally to the support
and backing of Col. Burton.
Dr. ]. w. Million made a pleasing
speech, appealing for the support of
the Academy.
H. Kelsey of st. Joseph was
present. He had investigated many
military schools over the country, and
concluded Mexico the best place to
put his boy in school.
Herbert Pryor spoke a word for
junior colleges like the academy. He
appealed for the hearty support of
the Academy by the Mexico business
public.
