"SLACkER!-

From the need of a word to describe
the man who knowingly refused to
aid his country sprang the word
Stacker"
1t is one of the slang words of the
war which has become a word in
good usage. 1t carries with it all OF
the sting of hatred and disgust.
To be Stacker" is near to being
a traitor. Because of its hardness,
the word is always poised upon the
tips of the tongues of the nations in
yolyed in the war, but it is used in
discriminatory and without thought.
The man who goes to the farm be-
cause he knows that there he can
best serve his country is not a
Stacker" Nor is that man who aids
in the mobilizing of the country's re-
sources.
There is a place for every man,
and every man should put himself in
that place where he is best fitted to
serve the needs of his country in the
time of war. 1t is for some men to
fight and for others to farm and to
carry on the industries of the coun-
try.
1t is the duty of some to lie in the
trenches and of others to care for
the dead and wounded. War is not
solely the destruction of ones enc
mics, nor is it solely the preservation
of lives-it is myriad sided.
Some are physically incapable of
performing their duties in the ranks,
but are not physically incapable of
performing a service elsewhere. Too
many are ready to point the finger of
derision and scorn at the man who
does not shoulder the rifle.
The Stacker" is the man who re-
fuses to listen to the country's needs,
the man who wastes its resources
and who refuses to be impressed with
the seriousness of the undertaking.
He is the man who sits idly by with
the spirit of Let somebody else
wOrry-why should II"
We must consider the real mean
"slackers" by its use.

Oscar E. Riley of the Japan Adver-
tiser. Toxic. Japan. tells of a tiffin
given there recently by American
newspaper men, including four grad
yates of the School of Journalism of
the University of Missouri. He says:
"The foreign journalists of Toxic
gave a surprise tiffin at the Imperial
Hotel at noon May s to celebrate the
seventy-fourth anniversary of DR.. Clay
McCauley, the oldest foreign news
paper man in Toxic. and the twenty
second birthday of Ralph H. Turner,
the youngest foreign journalist here.
Doctor, McCauley, the correspond
ent of the Boston Transcript, has lived
in Toxic twenty-seven years and is an
authority on the Japanese language,
history and customs. Mr.. Turner. the
Toxic correspondent of the United
Press Associations, has been connect
ed with the Japan Advertiser since his
arrival in Japan last June.
"The newspaper men who attended
the tiffin are: B. W. Fleisher, publish

The editor of the Herald, in com

who attended, can truthfully say that
at no previous meeting have courte-
sizes been exceeded that were extended

Warren E. Comstock of Kansas CITY

Week as follows:
THE first morning after my arrival.

After dressing, / was joined by a
fellow lodger, a bright and compan-
ionable young chap of the School of
Journalism. AS we strOlled through
the campus, en- route to the University
Cafeteria for breakfast, we passed the
| building of the School of Engineer
ing. upon and around the steps of
which, were cOngregated quite a large
body of the engineering students.
Many of them were holding pieces of
board about three feet long and six
inches wide. with one end whitfield
down for handle. In answer to my
inquiring look my companion said
Let's wait few minutes and see the
fun"
After waiting bit, my impatience
and curiosity prompted me to ask:
'Of what will the fun consist?"
HE then explained. that at a re-
cent voluntary collection of funds
from the students of the department,
two of them had not contributed, and
in consequence. they now had to run
the gauntlet" l soon saw what that
meant, for shortly the culprits put in
their appearance. One was short and
stockily built, and had on short
sacque coat. After seeing what hap
pened to him. l wondered why he
didn't wear longer coat! The 9TH
er victim was tall and rangy, as horse
men would say, and wore no coat at
all. Neither of them appeared bit
worried, but took it all as a part of
regular school discipline.

linquents, about one hundred of their

AS HISTORY Is MADE

Rudyard Kipling is great poet.
He has the far-reaching imagination
that sees far into the future. But
when he wrote least is east and west
is west, ne'er the twain shall meet"
he didn't see the situation that con-
fronts the world today. The East
has met the West. 1t has done more
it is battling for the West.
Movements of armies and navies
are in the main unknown to the pub
lie these days. However, we here in
the United States know that Japan,
the far Eastern empire, is supporting
the cause of the Allies with her navy
and armies. The grudge against
Russia, kept more or less alive since
their conflict of 1908, is being miti-
gated. Press dispatches announce
that Japanese soldiers are soon to
cross Asia and give assistance to the
Slav armies on the Eastern front
Past enmities are forgotten in the
struggle against the common foe.

its meeting Thursday and Friday and
Friday night banquet was given the
press which was the most unique af-
fair ever seen i'm this state or nation.
for that mater 1t was a banquet the
material for which, from food to decor
