But unlike the celebration of the
anniversary of any other school, per.
haps in the United States, Kemper
today is able to also celebrate the
fiftieth anniversary of its connection
with its superintendent, for just so
years ago Col. T. A. Johnston entered
the school as student, and has been
with it as student, instructor or su-
perintendent ever since. Perhaps no
other school in the country can enjoy
the unique pleasure of commemorate
ing the golden anniversary of it's SUI.
,perintendent and the seventy.fifth
anniversary of it's birth at the same
time.
Kemper graduated n students to-
day from school whose total enroll
ment for the year was over 500, max
ing 1t not only the oldest but also the
largest military school west of the
Mississippi river. But rs years ago,
on June 3, 1874, Kemper's Boarding
School opened in Boonville with five
students. In place of the half mil
lion dollar buildings and grounds
which this school now occupies, a
small house on the corner of Fifth
and Spring. streets on the ground now
occupied by the Citizens Trust Co.,
housed and furnished school rooms
for the first classes of the school.

ABANDONED CHILD

Beautiful Six Weeks Old
Babe Now Bears Name Of

After being abandoned by its moth

was found on the front doorstep of

ford Ute, for it was adopted Saturday
afternoon by Mr.. and Mrs. Clifford
Ute, of 8 Mckinley street.
Immediately after Mrs. Ute learned
that the mother of the child was un.
able to support it, she asked Mrs.
Jack Simmons, who found the babe,
to let her adopt it.
Mrs. Simmonds was at first inclined
to adopt the babe herself, but being
unable to do so, she Immediately de-
cided to let Mrs. Ute have it as she
knew that it would have a good home.
The child's foster mother filed pa.
pers for adoption on last Thursday in
probate court and was granted them
on Saturday.
When interviewed by Banner rep
resentative Monday, Mrs. Ute said:
at is the most wonderful baby in
the world and ] cannot see how any
mother in any circumstances whatev-
er would abandon it. 1t always smiles
and since we have had it, it has been
perfectly wonderful and we consider
ourselves very fortunate in obtaining
it. l can assure the mother of it that
it will always be we'll cared for"
The, baby, as it's mother was talk
ing, apparently knew that it had
safe resting place for it smiled and
coOed, as it lay in it's little crib.

OUR SOLDIER AT REST

(To Private Edgar ]. Weber, A Bat
terry, GID Regt., c. A. c.
When our land in her need sent a call
far and wide,
For men to uphold her great honor
and pride,
With a heart that was loyal, cour-
ageous and true,
He went as a soldier to dare and to
do.
But another call came from a country
afar,
In the radiant beam of bright gold
en- star,
And tender voice, speaking with in
finite love,
Called him into the ranks of the army
above.
In the dawn's early light fair lily
of France
Awakes from its slumber with joy in
it's glance,
To open it's beautiful petals of white
And bathe in the morning dew, spark
ling and bright.
And sweet is the tale it will fragantly
spread
In wave of perfume, to the breeze
overhead,
OF the vigil it tirelessly, lovingly
keeps
Der the spot where the soldier boy
silently sleeps.
And oft when the shadows. at close
of the day,
Creep over the earth with a mantle of
gray,
And twilight, in colors of golden and
blue,
The zephyrs that pass on the wings
of the night,
Ger valley and steep in a musical
fight,
Sing in tones low and sweet, to the
fiow'r heaven blest,
Guard thee well, gentle lily, our SOL
dier at rest"

PICTURESQUE SETS
IN LOCKWOOD FILM.

The most picturesque rustic scenery
available in the state of Florida has
been utilized as background for the
action of Metros production of "The
Landloper," a photoplay based on Hol-
man Days novel of the same name, in
which Harold Lockwood is presented
at the Pastime theatre Sunday even
ing.
For the sole purpose Of securing
this background Mr.. Lockwood and his
entire company travelled to Florida
and remained in the South for peri
cd Of Ave weeks. The result has been
highly satisfactory to the producers
ard those who delight in viewing the
beautie, of nature will have much to
revel in if they gee this new Lockwood
picture.
Though beautiful scenic background
is one of it's features, "The Landloper"
has other qualities to commend 1t. The
story is an absorbing drama OF ro-
nance and adventure and is OF a type
in which Mr.. Lockwood has repeatedly
scored.

Forty-six in all. Rhode island,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania have
not vt voted. Connecticut is the black
sheep of the nation. That legislature
voted against the ratification, and also
voted against the war appropriation
measure.
Ratification of the prohibition
amendment to the federal constitu-
tion was proclaimed formally by F.
L. Polk, acting secretary of state. The
proclamation was dated January 29th
but legal authorities of the depart
ment say ratification was accomp-
lished when the thirty-sixth state act
ed favorably on January 18th, and that
under terms Of the amendment itself
it becomes effective one year from
that date.
During 1918 President Woodrow
Wilson issued proclamation for war
emergency national prohibition. BY
this order the manufacture of distilled
alcoholic liquors ceased on July 1913,
and the manufacture Of beer ceased
December I, 1918, while the sale of all
such liquors and beer ceases on July
/, 1919.
When we observe the great strides
made toward dry nation one would
expect that the fight was over. How
ever, it is not. In 1918 the brewers
