direct or indirect factor or not there
is some truth in the statement.
The restless or unsatisfied people OF
today belong to the classes that are
filling the show houses daily. At these
shows sumptous homes wonderfully
furnished and occupants lavishly
dressed living in a state of luxury are
paraded before them. A desire is at
once created to possess such a home
or to live in similar state of luxury
1t is no more than natural, for we all
love beautiful things. The average
patron of the movie cannot afford
those luxuries, or perhaps he lives in
such a condition that he at once be-
comes antagonistic to the wealthier
class. He wonders why he cannot
possess such things. He believes him
self to be the underdog kept down by
some aristocrat, his boss perhaps.
Such thoughts as those may lead to de-
mands for higher wages or shorter
working hours.

GUARDIANS OF CIVILIZATION

Within the circle made by the north
driveway leading to the University
capus and pointing toward the gate
way stand two worn, rusty field
pieces. They are the guardians of
civilization. They symbolic the fact
that knowledge and wisdom are not
yet supreme rulers of the land. They
must have force behind them. The
field pieces are that force.
They stand for right over might. They
are inanimate; lifeless; yet speak
loudly and efficiently when called to
duty. This lesson has just been
learned at the cost of ten million lives,
untold suffering and misery.
Today with civilization shaken to the
core and stumbling along they stand
guard over it. In Omaha, in Boston,
in Washington, in Chicago, in the
steel sector those field pieces or their
substitutes have guarded and are
guarding civilization.
Civilization is still to weak to stand
alone. But cropping in the chaos, in
the past experience of the race, it is
trying to find substitute for the field
pieces. 1t would have law, order,
peace without the sword. 1t would
have a rule of reason.
Are we ready to hammer our
swords into plowshares and make our
field pieces memorials to the day they
won their last fight in the battle of
civilization. Are we ready to bury
our hatreds, greeds, the old diplmacy
and take up new order of things?
We must decide now.

THINGS YOUR CITY MAKES

Do you know that one candy manu-
facturer in Columbia makes $4,000
pounds of confectionery in the course
of year? That nearly all of this
twelve tons of candies is consumed
by the students and people of Colum-
bia?
1t takes six men and women to han
die this output Of candy at Jimmie
MoscOw's College Inn. All this candy
is sold at Mr.. Moscow's three confec-
tionery stores in Columbia, with the
exception of quantity which goes to
the small town stores of Boone Coun-
ty, such as Hallsville and Harg.
More than 80 per cent of this candy
is chocolate candy. Columbia is con-
sidered high class candy town,
where the more expensive grades are
most in demand. twenty-five per cent
of these chocolates are sold in boxes.
This output of candy represents more
than $4,000 spent in Columbia an
nually for this one local manufactur-
er's product.
Mr.. Moscow and his brother person.
ally superintend the manufacture of
his corrections, One other expert
candy maker is employed besides the
unskilled workers in this industry.
Such an output as $4,000 pounds of
candy year means daily production
of so to 100 pounds which is in
creased to 100 to 200 pounds during
the holiday season.

BOONE COUNTY MUST GIVE AGAIN

The citizens of Boone County de.
serve praise for the manner in which
they contributed to the Greater Steph-
ems College campaign. The amount
raised was over $4,000, less than 81
per capita. Considering the benefits
Boone County, and especially Colum-
bia, is to receive from having larger
Stephens College, the amount was
small.
But in the matter of giving money
neither Columbia nor Boone County is
through. Soon the campaign for a
greater Christian College will be
launched. The donations asked for
should not be considered gratituitous
contributions but investments.
The project means the immediate
expenditure of three or four hundred
thousand dollars. That money will be
spent In Columbia. A large portion of
this amount will go to Columbia firms
for material or to workmen here. The
net profit to Columbia for having such
buildings erected should be near $780,
600.
With bigger colleges come more
students. This fall there was not
room enough at the colleges to accom-
modate the students. Columbia will
lose $5O,OOO this year because of the
lack of accommodation for the stu
dents. The average amount spent in
Columbia by the students at Christian
or Stephens is approximately $1,000
each. To double the enrolment at
Stephens would mean an additional
three hundred thousand dollars COM
ing to Columbia annually. With more
funds Christian College will increase
its accommodation with a resulting
increase in attendance and in money
spent here.
What ever Columbia gives to in
crease the enrolment of its colleges
will be returned yearly. To Columbia
1t is not gift but an investment.

The writer quotes Mr.. Bullitt as say
ing in his interview that his mission tc
Russia was suggested by Colonel L. NJ.
House and approved by President Viii
son. The arrangement, he says, was
undertaken without the knowledge OF
the members of the ''big four Of the
Peace Conference, as Mr.. Wilson and
Colonel House desired the mission to be
as secret as possible.
When Mr.. Bullitt returned Mr.. Will
son sent his report to Premier Lloyd
George but did not include the secret
communication from Nicholai Lenine.
The premier was greatly impressed by
Mr.. Bullitt's report and wished to have
it published. according to the article,
but President Wilson, refused and sup
pressed it.
The writer is emphatic in his state
ment that Mr.. Bullitt told him Mr..
Lloyd George was unaware OF his mis-
sion until he saw the report, and that
President Wilson. and not the premier,
prevented the publication of Mr.. Bull
litt's conclusions as to Russia.
