A young man. presumably a student
in the University, recently removed a
picture of a young woman. now a grad
uate of the University, from the wall
of the reception room at the Parsons
Studio on Broadway. Where the pic
ture hung the following notice now is:
This space was formerly occupied
by young ladies' photograph in an
expensive hand carved, gold frame
1t was stolen by a man who could
not get the lady's picture any other
way.
I'VE do not regard our customers
as thieves. If we are mistaken in
you. there is nothing to stop you. II
is no test of skill or cleverness or
nerve. The pictures are not bolted
but we are watching. All that is
necessary is to wait till our backs are
turned; then slip the picture under
your coat.
But the next person caught doing
this is going just as Ear as money and
a charge of common thievery will
send him"

Columbia as 1t Was

On the morning of April 90, at
o'clock, it has been arranged that the
church bells all over the country shall
ring to celebrate the event of a hun
dred years ago when the bells through
out the thirteen states rang out to
call the people together to pray for
the success and prosperity of the
country under General Washington,

United States.

Even cats are loyal to Missouri, ac-
cording to Frank Clifford, manager IF
the Tavern Billiard Parlors. Mr.. Cliff
ford calls attention to the fact that
the ordinary gray cat has immediate
ly above its eyes a perfect NJ, made
by the black and gray markings. He
has a cat which he claims still more
resembles a Tiger mascot. Its black
is pure black and its stripes have a
tawny tinge suggestive of old gold.
And its purr is surprisingly like a
growl, as strangers soon find out. No
watchdog is necessary when tabby is
around, Mr.. Clifford says.

4 MOMENT,S GAIN

A moments gain may win a name
or rather fame
Proverbs, essays and books have
been written; sermons have been
preached; songs have been sung; and
business men have discouraged upon
the value of utilizing every spare mo-
ment but nothing so indelibly stamps
itself upon the mind as seeing pictured
the actual results of a moments gain.
An American soldier who in six
months in active service overseas can
bring home what he terms, the pleas
ure records of his wanderings about" /"
155 water-color sketches. has proved
beyond question, the value of a mo-
ment's gain
Columbians are viewing these beau
tiful and artistic sketches displayed
in the University Library, and renew
ing their acquaintance with a former
University student, Duane Lyon, who
has been an architect in Los Angeles
for the last ten years.
Mr.. Lyon says he did not miss any
of the fun or good times enjoyed by
the other men while making his
sketches.
The striking bit of history concern
ing each sketch adds significant value
to it.
Among the collection is the west
front of Notre-Dame Cathedral, show
ing the coverings for the portals to
shield the stone carvings.
Another shows Bernecourt Church,
which three days before the picture
was made, was complete and beautiful,
but which was demolished in the st.
Mihiel drive
The village church at Souilly, says
Mr. Lyon, which shows the dark stone
building in relief against the yellow
sky is quite similar to jules Guerin's
work, as is the drawing of the Hotel
de Vile at st. Denis.
The pictures are varied in Interest
and subjects. One shows the interior
of a home-German arrangement

bankers that tho directors had voted to
ask the stockholders in the near future
to authorize AN issue OF mortgage

1t was learned yesterday that the di-
reCtorS Of the National Enamelling and
Stamping Company do not contemplate
an increase in the common dividend this
year, or at least that they do not intend
to make any increase at the February
meeting. 1t is possible, however that
the directors policy OF declaring the full
years dividends at that meeting will be
changed and that quarterly disburse-
ments will be ordered every three
months throughout the year. The reason
for this it is said, IL to allow for an
increase In dividend later in the year if
advisable. on the other hand. the direc-
tors may declare the full years disburse-
ments at the forthcoming annual session
and extra payments during the year. II
the company's position warrants it.
There has been considerable buying of
the stock on the theory that an increased
dividend on the common IL to be de-
clared, but there is little likelihood Of
that, at least until later in the year.
