 STOCK LAW.

Balch, Ark, Jan. 29, IS. Editor Independent:
 Newport, Arkansas.
 Dear Sir: I notice an article in last weeks paper written by w. M. Valentin of Algoa, in regard to a stock law.
 I think that would be an injustice to the several small farmers that try to raise hogs. But 1 do think if the large land holders would not fence up their land until they got ready to cultivate it they would be doing a patriotic duty, because there are thousands of acres of wild land fenced up, no stock on it and doing nobody any good. If it was not fenced there would be better opportunity to induce the man without means to try to raise some hogs, which are badly needed. think if there was stock law all of the free range would be fenced up and you would see our hogs depre- ciate in number more than they are. All of the large bodies of land are held by non-residents, and if l see the stock law right, they are not looking to the increase of the hogs, but are trying to sell their land. There are hundreds of small farmers who are not able to own tracts of land to use as pasture, but with the present me- thods they are able to own 40 or 80 acres of farming land and raise their meat at small cost.
 Let us hear from the old-time set tiers, their ideas on the stock law, especially east of Cache river.
 Yours truly,
 M. B. Phariss.

build a monument in homer of the boys
who died in the cause of liberty. /,
for one, wish to second the motion and
suggest that considering the great
number of those who died and the
magnitude of the cause for which they
died a monument should be built that
will be compatible with their gift.
Let's net have a shoddy or expensive
stone structure so ugly that its only
reason for being will be the name
plate. We should give them some
thing beautiful, a real piece of art,
emBodying the spirit of the supreme
sacrifice and as perfect as the cause
for which they died. 1t will be there
fore necessary to hire the best artist
and perhaps for us to pay an enormous
amount, but it is the least we can do
fer them who did so much for us. l
am sure every student and alumnus
will gladly contribute enough for Mis-
souri, to have fit monument for her
sons who will not come back from
France.

single fiutter of gold and black or
a sign OF red and blue. No, We haven't
a victory over the old enemy X. L..
to gladden. our hearts and make us
thankful. Not an unusual and expect
ant hustle of preparation-masses of
students scurrying around with rolls
of bunting and bundles of pennants,
others swarming to the train to well
come the influx of the 'old guard
No, we cannot be thankful for the re-
turn of Missouri's loyal sons.
No boxes from home laden with deli
cacies, or tables groaning under the
weight of table comforts" to fill our
hearts with gratitude-the starving
world must still be fed. No crowds
of revelers swarming from house to
house to partake of neighbor's cheer
no, the FLU" finds its prey in crowds.
What is there to give us the spirit
of Thanksgiving? There is a nation
bowed in prayer, filled with a peace
and thankfulness too deep for out

has never since the days of the Pill
grims realized the true significance of
our day of Thanksgiving as its does

THE NEW BOOKS
.German Empire i'm Africa

The George H. Doran Company of
New York has published in phamplet
form, with a complete introduction,
Emil Zimmermann's book on The
German Empire of Central Africa"
The introduction, by Edwy Bevan,
points out the purpose of the publi-
cation-to put before the people of
the United States the opinion OF the
German empire in Central Africa for
furnishing raw materials for the in
dustries of the mother country.
Zimmerman favors a policy OF
Germany empire in Central Africa to
raw materials for the industries of
the mother country.
Besides this, he says that an empire
in Central Africa would supply mill
tary base for destroying the commerce
of Great Britain and Australia. He
thinks that the South American coun-
tries would naturally grow away from
North America and trust their fate
with the German colonies.
He has worked out an elaborate
plan of colonization down to the de-
tails of the kind of government and
the variety of crops that could be
grown.

THE s. A. L. c. RECORD

Announcement today that the Stu
dents Army Training Corps will be
demobilized is received with mixed
feelings. Some there are who find
themselves accomplishing little at
their academic work, and little more
at their military work. Others there
are-and plenty of them, toO-whO
find themselves improved in health
and the possessors of training which
they could have received in no other
way.
The fact remains that with the sign
ing of the armistice the organization
lost its excuse for being.
One student soldier put it this way:
"As lcng as there was training camp
and the possibility of action to look
forward to, we took a hearty interest
in the work; now the enthusiasm is
all gone out of it."
Under the circumstances, demobiliz-
alton was the logical solution.
1t is hardly to be supposed that
there will be no military training at
all in the future Probably there will
be-perhaps something on the order
of the military training which pre-
ceded the establishment of the S. A
T. c. Presumably, however, the open
ing of the new University term Jan
uary will find conditions approach
ing normal.
While the S. A. T. c. was establish
ed too late TO make itself an important
factor in the actual conduct of the
war, it cannot be judged altogether
from results. Its chief value lay in
its promise for the future. 1t was a
symbol of the determination of the
United States to keep pouring meL
into its army, accompanied by other
men qualified and trained to become
officers, so long as might be neces-
sary to win the war. 1t is not too
much to say that the national attitude
exemplified by the establishment of
the S. A T. C. may have been a prom
inent figure in the calculations of the
German general staff in deciding to
accept the armistice terms offered
them.
From the viewpoint of the univer-
stiles the period of the S. A. T. c. has
been one of service. 1t has been
patent to everyone who set foot on the
campus what difficulties have been
met in the attempt to keep up the aca-
demic work in the face of the military
necessities. Through it all the atti-
tude defined by President Hill at the
opening of the term has been ad-
hered to: The universities of the
Nation are not seeking favors; they
are not offering a haven to slackers;
they have offered themselves and their
facilities to the Nation to help win the
war"
