MEMORIAL TO N. j.
SOLDIERS SUGGESTED
Horace Major Has Three
Plans of Tribute to Dead
and Living.
ALL ARE ARTISTIC
Bronze Doors at Gateway,
Indian Statue, or Gates
at Conley Entrance.

A memorial to the many students
ond former students who have rep
resented the University in the Worlds
War has been spoken of often. 1t
has taken concrete form in the minds
of some.
Among the ideas suggested are
three thought out by Horace Major of
the department of landscape garden
ing.
The first and simplest of these is
two bronze doors to replace the wood
on ones now in the gate posts at the
Eighth street entrance to the campus.
These doors would be of heavy bronze,
at the top of which would be an eagle
rampant Below the eagle would be
a wreath or spray of laurel One
door would be dedicated to those
who have not returned from the war,
the other to those who have.
A second suggestion is that statue
he placed at the head of Hit street,
in front of Rothwell Gymnasium. One
reason for choosing this particular
location is that, in the course of time,
the armory and drill grounds will
probably be placed just back of the
gymnasium.
The statue would be a life-siZe
bronze Indian, his left hand raised
high in the peace signal, his right arm
extended in welcome to the returning
heroes. This would be mounted on
massive base of rough granite. A
bronze shield and ribbons would adOrn
the face and sides of the rock.
On the shield and face of the rock
would be inscribed the legend, to
whom it is erected, the dates of the
entrance of the United States into
the war. of the armistice and of the
signing of the treaty of peace.
Back of the statue would rise a
fagpole from which would float the
Stars and Stripes.
The whole would symbolic Ameri-
canism, protected by education, civil
ization and democracy.
Prof Majors third idea is of
wrought iron entrance gates at the
Conley street entrance to the campus.
There would be the large gates for
the driveway, and small ones for the
foOtpath. These would swing from
pillars of brick and stone, on which
would be placed small bronze plates
with suitable inscriptions. Extending
inward from the pillars would be
short stone approaches, rising from
which would be electroliers.
Any one of these suggestions would
make a handsome and lasting addi-
ton to the University, as well as the
fitting tribute it is meant to be to
those who have upheld its standards
in the war.

Four Years of Football
Possible In 9Big Ten.

At a meeting of the faculty COM
mittee of the Western Conference,
held in connection with the session of
the big Ten" institutions at Chicago
Saturday it was voted to disregard all
rules of eligibility pertaining to the
past football season. The resolution,
which will make it possible for those
who played on varsity elevens druing
the past year to play four years of
football, follows:
Resolved, That in determining fur
Their questions of eligibility under
conference rules no account shall be
taken of athletic or scholastic records
during or by reason of military serv-
ice.
Resolved, Further, that absence
from the university on account of mil
itary service shall not render students
ineligible"
The last clause of the resolution ap-
plies to the one-year residence rule
and to the number of stipulated cred
its which a freshman or other student
must acquire to be eligible for ath-
letic competition during the following
year.
Although the committee voted to ig-
more eligibility rules for football
players. the freshmen rule will now go
into effect and no first-year men will
be permitted to take part in athletic
contests for the remainder of the col
legiate year.

William Jewell Eleven
Ties Missouri Wesleyan

A crowd of fifteen hundred persons
witnessed one of the most bitterly
fought football battles seen in many
a season at Cameron, Mo-, Saturday.
William Jewell held Missouri Wesley
an to a to 6 tie.
The scoring began in the first per-
iod, when the toe Of Captain Conklin
booted a dropkick from the 25-yard
line. He repeated his performance in
the second quarter Near the end Of
The Evening Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1917-1920, 1918-12-09

the game Wesleyan had another OPP
pCrtunity to dropkick, but passed it up
for a chance at touchdown. How
ever, they lacked the punch to cross
the Jewell goal line.
The Cardinals chance came early
in the last period, when Walker re-
ceived a forward pass from Julian for
25-yard run, which placed him on
the Wesleyan 15-yard line. Jewell
then carried the ball by line plunges
to the 7-yard line, and with the as
sistance of a 5-yard penalty Fowler
scored a touchdown. That tied the
score. The crowd experienced tense
moment as they watched Smart try for
goal. 1t was a difficult angle and the
ball went wide of the posts.
The six points made by Wesleyan in
the first half and the six points made
by Jewell in the last half measure
fairly accurately the relative strength
of the two teams. The first half was
all in favor OF Cameron and the last
half as much in favor of Liberty.
Wesleyan completed twice as many
first downs as Jewell. In punting.
however, the advantage was distinct
ly with the Cardinals. Smart showed
excellent judgment in putting out of
danger, and an exchange was general
ly ten yards in his favor.
Attempted forward passes were cost
ly to both sides. Early in the first
quarter Wesleyan intercepted a Jewell
pass and raced fifty yards before be-
ing stopped. 1t was this which paved
the way for Conklin'S first drOpkick

never have stopped the headlong rush
of the Hun. All honor to their endur-
ance and skill!
A friend of mine who lately made
a tour of inspection of the various
French munitions plants told me
some thrilling things of these daugh-
ters of France. who perform their
tasks with an all-in-the- -day's-work
efficiency that = beautiful to see.
They are from all grades of society
women of the nobility. who have
lost fathers, brothers and husbands,
and who have preference for this
herculean work that demands so much
it leaves no time for heartache or
thinking.
a Trying Ordeal
There they work. shoulder to shoul-
der with strapping peasant women or
the shopkeeping women from larger
towns. And they work! No elegant
purling and knitting in the grateful
of the Cyclops. They handle the
great ingots of moulten steel that
come belching out of incandescent
furnaces. Streaming with sweat,
burned. grimy, these French women
toll in the breath of roaring blast fur
naces. Slaves never worked harder.
Clad only in shirt and trousers. wheel
ing steel bars on motor trucks to the
furnaces, where the metal is forged
for shells.
and many are widows. For such as
have babies there is a creche where
the little ones are beautifully cared
for while their mothers are working
for France. There are doctors and
nurses-everything possible to give
the future Gallo citizen his chance
in the world.
When the mother drops out from
the roaring hell Of the munition
plant, to nurse her baby. she rests
for a little while, has some light re-
freshment-then goes back. In spite
of everything. I am assured that the
children look surprisingly healthy
The older babies and those whose
mothers are unable to nurse them are
bottle fed; and the larger ones have
a most carefully balanced ration for
their diet.
1.-The woman's right to the child is
at least equal to that of the father
We are all grateful to Justice Shearr
for this decision. And the judgment
of Blackstone. That the very being
and legal existence Of a woman is
suspended during marriage, is con-
solidated in that of her husband
seems very far off. indeed. In the
meantime. we are all proud of being
women.

Hon Many Kinds
|of SugarAre There?

When you say sugar. you mean that
white crystalline material which
comes originally from the sugar cane
or the sugar beet. And that sub
stance is a pure sugar. But it is not
the only sugar. by any means.
If you were a chemist you would
call that sugar "sucrose." and you
would remark quite casually that of
course there are other sugars.
Some of these otner sugars are
glucose" or 'deXtrose" or grape
sugar" "fructose" OF "levulose" or
fruit sugar" 'lactose" or milk
sugar." and "maltose" or malt
sugar"
Honey. corn sugar. maple sugar and
maple sirup, corn sirup and many
other sirups contain one or more of
these other sugars" In this sense,
all the sugar substitutes are not
really. substitutes at all. but are
sugars just as cane sugar is sugar.
All fruits contain sugar of one kind
or another. Dried fruits-prunes.
figs. apricots, dates-contain a great
deal of sugar. They can be used by
themselves as sources of fuel for
home fighters.
All these sugars have a very high
food value. That is the second fact
to keep in mind. They are energy
foods and of particular value in that
they act very rapidly in producing
energy for the body to use.
Sugars are not all alike. Some OF
them are more complex than others.
But, in the end, they all break down
into one of the simple sugars like
glucose" "fructose" or "galactose."

of kinship. To be sure. such a claim
was only an accidental one. Yet But
Ter chafed at it.
Therefore. il was with a start OF
relief-which his companion mistook
for consternation-that he heard Cliff
ford announce that Lizzie Moore was
not his cousin.
He did not make this stateme mt
until he had driven to the Four Cor
ners. at which John Butler had plan
ned to leave him and the car and
walk home.
During the three miles before the
pair in the automobile reached the
spot designated Clifford had talked
rapidly about himself and his bust
ness projects, his friends and his
amusements-in short about almost
everything that he knew except the
subject which just now was upper
most in his mind.
Butler listened, making only an
occasional comment, determined not
to question his companion. but to
force him to introduce the business
matter" to which he had referred
earlier in the evening.
At last, as they approached the

said. and walk back home. So please
stop right here"
All right. Clifford assented. ap-
plying the brakes. But first l have

Hurry up. then" Butler suggested
Clifford brought the car to a dead
stop before he made his momentous
announcement. His air of having
something of great significance to i'm
part irritated his companion.
Well. what do you want to say"
Butler demanded, brusquely. turning
so that he faced the man seated by
him.
The girl you met at the farm is
not my cousin" Clifford anpounced
solemnly
At Buffers start of genuine aston
ishment and relief he repeated his
assertion.
NO. she's not my cousin. More
over. her name is not Lizzie Moore.
His manner was so portentous that
Butler laughed aloud.
Well, what of that?" he scoffed
II am glad it is not her name. /
think Lizzie Moore is an ugly name
anyway"
TIE was not as Indifferent as he
sounded. He longed to ask who the
girl was.
A Swift Attack
But he would not discuss her with
this man. Instead. he started to get
out of the car.
IF that's all you wanted to say
you went to a great deal OF trouble
TO say it," he commented carelessly

You act as II it made no difference
to you who that girl is, but it does!
And I'll tell you why"
Butler had stepped from the car
and now turned suddenly upon the
speaker, who still sat at the steer
ing wheel.

warned. You may be laboring un-

Clifford was too enraged and cha

Canning and Packing For Win
ter's Use Explained in Detail by
National War Garden Experts.
ADVANTAGE OF THE SINGLE
PERIOD COLD PACK METHOD

The single period cold pack meth
cd is a simple and sure way of can
ming. 1t insures a good color, texture
and flavor to the vegetable or fruit
canned. The products are not over
cooked or in mushy state. Each
berry or piece of fruit or vegetable
is distinct. The simplicity of the
method specially commends it, Fruits
are put up in syrups, vegetables have
salt and water added. The cooking
of the product in a closed jar makes
certain that organisms present are
killed. and the sealed jar prevents
organisms from the air getting in
after cooking. Directions for cold
pack canning are explicitly given in
the free canning manual which the
National War Garden Commission,
Washington, will send you on re-
quest. A. 2-cent stamp to cover post
age should be enclosed.
1t is economical. By using this
method the processing is completed
in a single period, saving time, fuel
and labor. The work which needs
care is done in the beginning, when
the worker is fresh. 1t is easier,
pleasanter and more interesting than
the open kettle method or the three
day intermittent method.
Thus the drugery is taken out of
canning. We don't have to dread the
canning season-the standing over a
hot stove continually and the fatigue.
We know that we have a practical.
satisfactory method.
The canning of food in small, as
we'll as large quantities, is an impor-
tant advantage. The housewife who
understands the method will find that
it pays to put up even a single con-
tainer. Thus when she has a small
surplus she should take the time
necessary to place this food in a con-
tainer and store it for future use.
Efforts which count the small as we'll
as large amounts make for true
household efficiency.
Use the single period cold pack
method and have "a can of fruit, a
can of vegetables and can of greens
for every family for every day in the
year" The commission will gladly
answer any questions written on one
side of the paper and sent in a self
addressed stamped envelope.

Sugar Sapers

Use the desserts which do not
depend upon sugar for their tex
ture. Sugar substitutes will give
the desired sweetness. In cakes
not quite the same product is Sc
cured with all-sugar substitution,
but in all other desserts equally
satisfactory results may be OBJ
tanned.
Desserts where sugar substi-
tutes may be used in .pre-war
receipts:
Custards.
Gelatine desserts, clear jel-
lies, sponges.
Frozen dishes, ice cream.
mousse.
Puddings. steamed cereal. tapi-
oca.
Cookies, cakes.
Fresh fruits with syrups.
These substitutions produce
satisfactory results:
In place of one cup of sugar,
use one cup of honey or one and
two-thirds to two cups of corn
syrup. Approximately the same
sweetness is obtained.
Every cup of syrup or honey
furnishes oEe-fourth cup of
liquid, therefore for every cup of
syrup or honey that is substitut-
ed for sugar, reduce the origi-
email amount of liquid in the re-
ceipt one-fourth cup (16 level
teaspoons-one cup).

At this idea Butler smiled sardoni-

them even in thought.
Elizabeth Wade had been in But

argued with himself that even if II
were possible to win her love she
would not be happy with him or in
the set TO which he belonged. but he
appreciated that such arguments were
futile.
