THINGS YOUR CITY MAKES

Do you know that Columbia has an
ice manufacturing plant which sup
piled ice to towns in all parts of Mis-
souri, last summer and which shipped
as far west as Parsons, Kan, during
last July and August?
Columbia people were buying ice
last summer for from 40 to 60 cents
a hundred pounds when other towns
were paying as high as 81 hundred
pounds and glad to get ice at any
price. The Hetzler Brothers ice
plant is large enough to supply two

MEMORIALS AID INFINITUM

Besides the unrest and discomfort
that is sweeping the country today
there is a memorial craze sweeping
it that promises within few years to
make the country look like ceme-
terry from the birdseye views taken
by aviators.
There are various classes of men,
,orials: worthy and unworthy; beau
tiful and ugly. useful and useless;
memorials to memorialize worthy
men, worthy deeds, and memorials to
satisfy vanity.
Memorials should first of all stand
for a worthy cause, deed or man.
Next, they should be beautiful; they
should reflect the art of the age;
and yet they should be useful, not
mere statues, but buildings Of some
kind to serve worthy purpose.
At present there is a movement on
foot to raise ten million dollars for
the erection of a memorial of Theo-
dore Roosevelt. 1t is a worthy cause.
Roosevelt's character, symbolic of
virile Americanism, is etched upon
the mind of the world. 1t is indelibly
stamped on the last twenty years of
American history.
The ten million dollar drive will go
over. Let the memorial be as worthy
of the man as the man is worthy of
the memorial; may it be as beautiful
as the life of the man was beautiful
in service to his country; and may it
serve the country as the man himself
served the country.
At the same time that the Roose-
velt Memorial is being planned hun
dreds of others are being planned
throughout the country. The Missou-
ri Legislature has provided sum of
$1,000 for each county in the state,
providing the county will give like
amount, for the erection of memorials
to soldiers and sailors killed in the
war. This is master stroke of pork
barrel methods. Each constituent
receives a slice. There are ia coun
ties in Missouri, ere long there will
be ia statues, or whatnot, one in
each of the largest towns or in the
county seat of the ia counties. If
all the other states follow the lead
of Missouri the country will soon be
spotted with thousands of memorials.
But why stop there? Why doesn't
each town or city in thes state appro-
pirate certain amount for the erec-
ton of memorials to each soldier or
sailor killed in the war? We could
then have statute at each street
corner instead of the hideous guide
posts, that now besmirch the beau
tiful streets of so many towns just
as they do in Columbia.
However, a memorial should be
built to the soldiers and sailors who
were killed in the war But instead
OF erecting ia separate would-be-
memorials why not pool interests and
build one real enduring memorial?
A memorial that will stand for CEN
turies, that will have beauty, utility,
that will symbolic the devotion to
duty, the self-sacrifce, the idealism
of the youths that gave their lives
upon the altar of humanity.

lure or drive man into a proper marriage" They are advised to marry Wednesday, not to propose to the rlan, to tell character from the shape of fingers, that it is unlucky to go to the sweetheart's home and leave by diff ferent door from that entered, what it means to dream of fire and water, that May is no nice month to marry in, and that a sandy haired man is usually warm hearted ands original though it takes time to understand him."

as Rufus Choate said of John Quincy Adams, he has made enemies in every quarter; and in this parliament he has never had any great number of real friends. He has had supporters who had to support him because he seemed the best man to be at the helm of things in the war.
 The retention of the censorship, against which in his old free days he struggled with such wit and persist ence, has sharpened the wrath or rlialice of some journalists against him, but the main cause of the at tempts to oust his cabinet lies much deeper than personal gr,idges or am- bitions. The high cost of living. and of food; the necessity of high taxation; Frances need of imports to bring down prices; the difficulty of stabilizing exchange if freer or free importation is permitted while France is still to get on her industrial feet and has little to export-tn short, seri- ous economic and industrial questions. in part the everlasting debate between protection and free trade, are involved.

Like all things else, boyhood's thrills cost more. The penny shocker" that formerly sold for two American cents now is priced from three ha' peIce tthree cents) to four pence (eight cents).

 Soft Stuff for Servant Girls
 The stories with shrieks ai.d dull thuds in them are for boys only. For the misses who wear a sprig of lace on their hair and answer the door bell (knocker.

Orphan Agnes at the drilling machine is looked at in a kindly way by the managing directors son but she spurns his hon est advances because she doesn't want to queer him with the "guv'nor.- Nor does she encourage John Hawkins, on her social level, who in a wicked mo- ment to show his pique, steals the

 Here are some of the titles of the latest three cent '1adys stories' and while carelessly glancing over them just bear in mind that thousands of Kitchen Katies in their basement sculleries in London are soaking their aprons with tears of sympathy for the lowly heroines in their anguish:

 In 'Stolen from Her Sweetheart there is Kitty Bell who was "a hand at the Western Cycle factory and liked her work. She was on the press. which means that she fed a machine which turned out small parts and cycle orna- ments. Kitty was very popular with her mates. especially with girl called Mary Gran, who was her chief chum."

Jonnart, one of the abiest of French administrators. famous for his achievements as governor general of Algeria. Mir. Klotz. the minister of finance, has been much complained of, though he has enjoyed a reputa- tion for expert ability, but for years a minister of finance in France or any other country will lie upon a bed of thorns.
 Mir. Clemenceau's ministry is re- building just at the time that his ad- yersaries thought they could toppls the whole thing over. Its defeat last week was on vote against the food minister.

.LUR|D TALES IN
 MUCHDEMAND BY
 BRITISH PEOPLE.

LONDCN-The saturation of the British public with Anne iran ideas, in films, plays, magazines, j, z and popu- lar songs, is now aided and a,betted by Buffalo Bill and Nick Carter. Every news stand reeks with the dripping tommyhawks of redskins or glimmers with the green murk of a murder scere. But Buffalo Bill and Nick Carter are standing infallibly by and English boys who already have been introduced to the supreme pard and wizard among sleuths gulp righteously with foreknowledge that treachery will be punished and criminal cunning thwarted.
 There are even two competing edi- tions of Buffalo Bili-Newnes Red skin library and the Prairie library of the Amalgamated Press. The wild yarns seem to have been wholly writ ten by Americans.
 And Chief Dish Face, after seeing his bloodthirsty braves bite the dust while the report of a quick shooter rings out, does not leap on his trusty pie-eyed horse and gallop from Pitts burg to Denver in a single night. No, they undoubtedly are American pro- ducts made in the U. S. A., but printed in London for British youths.
 The publishers of penny -shockers'' and "penny dreadfuls" as they call them must have studied the American dime novel factories pretty closely for while they have not imported Jesse James and his virtuous are-deviltry, they brought out classic Robin Hood in a three cent outlaw series about six weeks ago. They seem to have found a ready public for the canonized bri- gand and his hearty followers and their buxom wench friends.
 Epping Forest and the other historic woods beside the main roads to Lon don again are scenes of robberies in which the unpopular victims cry out What ho, ye varletsi" Arrows whistle on their sure way, heads are cracked, grasping landlords and money lenders come to ignomy, guzzling goes on with Falstaffian gusto and ever and always Robia Hood stands out the haloed hero. tighter of wrongs and measurer of 100 per cent justice

FOOLISH QUESTIONS

The answering Of rociish questions is. we believe, one of the truest in dexes to a persons character.
 If they are answered in my-how- ignorant attitude, 1t shws the lack of tolerance which is. perhaps one of the most desirable of human traits.
 On the other hand, if the foolish question is given kindly reply, it dis plays, in addition to tolerance a great degree of tact
 We are so apt to forget that the ouestion which appears foolish to us. may be of vital importance to the per son asking 1t.
 Then, too, asking a foolish question is often merely desire on the part or the questioner to be friendly. It IS used as sort of entering wedge.
 And, usually one can answer a fool ish question sensibly in half the time it takes to make a smart" or "cut- ting reply.
