Fair Play imperative.

"Business is business" is a motto all
workers should keep before them. They
should demand their rights but should
remember that those in authority have
rights also, and are entitled to fair,
honest treatment from the people they
employ. Therefore, one must learn to
be punctual, non-talkntive and kindly
to their associates. The employee who
swerves from this code is not playing
fair with employer and certainly
should keep silent on the question of
equal rights.-Exchange.

Missouri MuI. Away. There.

The Missouri mule was in the war
long before the Missouri soldier en-
tered 1t. The declaration of war was
made for him in 1914. two years and a
half before Pershing and the thou
sands OF other Missourians got their
orders to wheel into line. He had made
brilliant record there before their ap-
pearance. But according to the Lon
don advices, he seems to have felt the
Impulse Of Missouri behind him at the
last, for 1t Is written: 1.-The mule
shared in the big British advances on
the western front this fall and proved
his grit and worth by keeping right up
with the rapidly advancing artillery"
That is Missouri characteristic.
