Rounding into the semi-finals of the
football season, the teams of the Mis-
suuri Valley are attracting unusual
attention this year. Football ehthusi-
asts will watch most carefully this
week the Observation-Disclosures con-
test at st. Louis and the Kansas-Ne-
braska battle at Lincoln. There are
great possibilities for a change in
standings this week Washington, al
ready defeated by Drake, will go into
the Missouri battle with $1,000 st.
Louis rooters urging Rutherford's
team to keep in the race, while Mis-
souri,, still smarting from Nebraska
defeat and determined as never be-
fore to give the Pikeway eleven a
licking, is expected to give an exhibit
ton of its best football. A defeat by
Washington would not eliminate Mis-
souri, from the Valley contest, as the
Tigers would still have an opportuni-
ty to come back into the running at
Lawrence. But victory for Missouri
over the Pikers would finish the st.
Louis teams Valley title hopes for
good.
The result OF the Kansas-Nebraska
game will not affect Valley standings,
but will give the man with the loose
five or ten dollar bill a chance to de-
eide just how he'll bet in the Turkey
Day struggle at Lawrence. For, should
Kansas defeat the Cornhusker-which
is hardly expected-the stock of the
team from Mount Dread would go
booming.
The Valley fun is gradually mar
rowing down to two teams, and with
sport critics pronouncing Missouri and
Kansas the "best since the good old
days" it looks like the grand finale
will be well worth standing in line to
see.

CITY IS NOW INDEBTED ssss,OOO
Water and Light Bonds to Become
Due in 1925 and 1880.

Que Ill 1870 anu lJ5Vs
With the issuance of the S128,000
worth of sewer bonds the city's in
debtedness has been increased to
$226,00O. The city now has two bond
issues out, water and light bonds and
sewer bonds. The amount that the
city is indebted for water and light
bonds is $9S,000. Twelve thousand
dollars worth of these bonds become
due in 1926 and the remaining $780,
900 in due in 1880.
Bonds which are issued by the city
can be bought by anyone who cares
to invest in them. The law requires
that any bonds issued by the city have
to be paid for within 20 years from
the time of issue.
There are laws fixing the limit of a
city's Indebtedness. The city of Co.
lumbia is allowed to issue bonds for
only those things that are authorized
in its charter. Among the things
authorized in its charter are street
improvements, sewers, water works,
electric light improvements and city
hall improvements.
For any of the above purposes, with
the exception of water and light, Co
lumbia can issue bonds to the amount
of five per cent of the assessed val
uation of the city after its present in
debtedness has been deducted. Water
and light bonds can be issued to the
amount of ten per cent of the city's
assessed valuation.
The assessed valuation of Colum-
bia for 1917 was $4,641 ,43S.
