Not my country right or wrong. but
my country. if right, to keep it
right; if wrong, to set it right. That
phrase, quoted by Oswald Garrison
Willard. sounds the doctrine that
every American should learn and OBJ
serve religiously. The old idea of
my country right or wrong is as fall
iacious and as empty as saying my
SELL right or wrong. In entering
this war. if we are right let's keen
right and go ahead. If wrong. let's
set ourselves right and follow that
principle which is unquestionablv

Mr. Stephens told how former
President Lathrop came to Missouri
from Hamilton College, N. Y, and OF
his faithful work during the trying
first ten years. The first graduating
class had two members and there
were about $50 students in the Uni
versity. With just one division, DR..
Lathrop taught about a dozen sub
jects. During that time the state
gave practically no support to the
University and DR.. Lathrop to make
ends meet" cut his own small salary
in half.
In 1850 DR.. Lathrop went to Wis
consin as president of that states
university, later holding a similar
position at the University of Indiana.
He returned to Missouri during the
trying days of the Civil War. HE
died." said Mr.. Stephens. thirty
years before his time, worn out by
the trying work. a martyr to the
cause of education" In behalf of the

The GIRL WITHOUT A chance
Monday Evening, October Sth at the
Bentley Grand.

An enlightened public is undoubt-
edly the greatest protection against
any public menace. There are
many ways for the public to gain
knowledge of existing conditions,
but none SO effective as the press
and the stage When it was dis
covered, some three years ago, that
a gigantic trust for the young wo-
men and girls had been built up in
this country, these two great medi-
ums combined to expose it and to-
day the percentage Of girls who
fall victi m to their snares has been
very materially reduced. The sub
ject is not yet sufficiently talked abb
out. Every one should know the
methods Of these wolves of society.
Every girl should be familiar with
the bait they set their traps with.
The Girl Without Chance"
which appears at the Bentley Grand
Theatre Monday evening, October
9Th, will show you many new meth
DDS which they employ to decoy un-
suspecting girls into their nets.
Every father and mother should see
it. Every minister should advise
'them to, for it teaches a moral les
son equal to any sermon.

cupies eight ar ten columns of his
paper in explanation and in, con-
cluding the article that was to
boost the war, but which the fool
government looked upon as a treas

The editor of the Tribune NAV

for a patriotic purpose, bat when
ninetenths Of the people who read
it. including the post Office author
tiles at Washington, pronounced
it a seaitious article--a virtual
stab in the back Of the government
Of the United States, there are but
two conclusions that can be reached.
One OF these is that the writer is
at heart reasonable, and took this
covert method to strike at the gov
ernment, and create dissatisfaction
and dissension ameng our citizens.
Ihe other conclus ION is that the

columns OF space in an endeavor to
enlighten others and encourage
them to support the government,
he actually wrote an article that
would have the very opposite effect
on those who should read it. We
are charitable enough to accept the
latter conclusion as we are some-
what acquainted with Editor Yer

may not look at it in the same kind
~ light, for loaded gun in the
hands OF fool may sometimes do
as much damage as if it were in
the hands Of a vicious person.

whole pages Of a newspaper to show
his loyalty to the government and.
