After the game the Hannibal team
gave a banquet for the Mcmillan

A CALL TO ARMS,
MIR. PUBLISHER.

Missouri publishers, large and
small, are confronted with a situa-
ton which threatens their very ex-
istence. The small publisher is
meeting it bravely. He Is making
an effort to get relief and in his
feeble way is bidding defiance to the
interests that are plundering him
right and left. The large publish
ers are not. The time has come
when action must be taken and the
publisher who holds back will make
himself an enemy to the common
cause. More paper is being manu-
featured today than ever before.
More paper is being imported than
ever before. The amount of ex-
ports is but fraction of the avail
able supply. The cost Of manufac-
ture has actually decreased. In
the face OF this, publishers must
pay two and three times as much
as was asked a year ago. Such
demands are not only unwarranted
by the facts but are highway rob-
berry Of the worst kind. The Mis-
souri, Press Association is making a
vigorous and costly effort for relief.
Although it may be unable to make
a case in the courts It has other
weapons that may be brought to
bear upon the organization or in
terest that is responsible in whole
or in part for the unjust raids that
are being made upon its members.

MCMILLAN NOTES
(By Roselle Haskell.)
The Sophomore Party

The Sophomore Glass OF Mcmillan
entertained the Senior (19i71 Class
with a carnival, similar in some re-
spects to the fall carnival given oy
Mr.. Brundage on the streets OF Mex
leo last fall.
There were side shows on the sec
ond floor of Mcmillan which were
literally patronized and enjoyed by
all
One of the strongest attractions
was "The Irish Giant" impersonated
by Emmett Dermody who, of course
did the impossible, by lifting the
100000 pound weight high in the
air. In this show also was seen
Chinese wonder.
The next show was Dolly Dimps,"
the Human DOLL. Miss Ruth Har-
per playing the part under the SUI
pervision of Miss Mary Worren
GLADYS Kistler was in charge OF
the next feature, the "Snake Charm
er, Nina" Bessie Dyke playing the
part of Nina.
The painless corn killer was
great attraction. A small pig in box
eating an ear of corn was the pain
less" corn killer. Peyton Emmons
was in charge of this show.
Across the way was a "Mary-Go-
Round" Miss Mary Mcdonald had
charge of this, and also "The Head
Without a Body" sometimes called
cabbage head.
Finally we came to the Dancing
Dwarf" Frank wilkins with the as
sistance of Alva Vaughn playing the
part of the dwarf.
After completing the rounds of the
shows we returned to the auditorium
where we were highly entertained by
Sims Rixey, who charmed his hear
! ers with a number of popular songs
The Chorus Girls" were Chas'
Kunkel, Frank Kunkel, Fred Stall
lings, William Hickman and William
walker Johnson.
Richard Mckinney gave a mag
ic show" which afforded half-hour's
enjoyment for the students.
Last but not least came the "eats'
which were served in the study hall.
The menu consisted of orange Ice,
cades and sandwiches.
While the hungry Seniors and
Sophomores were eating there was
cabaret to entertain them. The men,
bers of this feature of the entertain
ment were Misses Virginia Rodgers,
Leona Jones, Gladys Robinson, and
George Wagner.
The committee in charge of the
Carnival were Loyal Wonneman'
VIM. Walker Johnson, Mary Worreil'
Leona Miller and George Wagner.
The teachers in charge were Misses
Johnson and Elwang.
Mcmillan Basket Ball team was de-
feated at Hannibal by a score of %
to 25. The McMillah student body
went to the c. & A. station Friday
noon to see the Bull Dogs" on,
During the game at Hannibal the
voices of Mcmillan rooters could be
heard above the Hannibal rooters-v
Rodgers, Richards, DeMuth, Carter
Wonneman, Davis. Cockelrese, VIII
kins and Precht, furnished pep"
for Mcmillan and the Hannibal boys

]. B. Botkin and John Lane agree
that Uncle Rufus Pearson gets his
wires crossed, so to speak, when we
are to infer from what he says that
the old custom mill was built so or

60 years ago: Mr.. Botkin remembers
the early operations and Mr.. Lane
says he remembers when the struct-
ure was put up, and he has been in
Mexico but 80 years.
