RHODES SCHOLARSHIP RESUME
Missouri May Appoint Two Scholars
This Year.


President A. Ross Hill, chairman of
the Rhodes Scholarship Committee
for Missouri, announces that appoint
ments to Rhodes Scholarships will
be resumed in October, 1919, and that
Missouri will be permitted to appoint
two scholars this year. Each scholar
ship is held for three years and the
scholar receives 800 pounds sterling
a year, nearly $500.
There are no restrictions as to the
subjects which Rhodes Scholars must
study in Oxford University. They may
work for research degrees, such as
bachelor of science, bachelor of civil
law and doctor of philosophy.
Candidates must be unmarried and
must have received credit for at least
two years of college work in this
country.
Candidates will not be required to
pass formal examination as hereto
fore, but selections will be made by
a committee for each state, judgment
to be based upon the students prev

LET IT BE THE BEST

In the early part of May 'our boys,
Company F of the Thirty-fifth Divi-
sion, are coming home. Mayor James
Gordon, acting in behalf OF the people
of Columbia, recently sent the fol-
lowing telegram to that organization:
"The citizens of Columbia with
grateful hearts welcome the return OF
our boys and their comrades to their
native shore. We long to receive you
in our midst and to give personal ex-
preston of our pride in your achieve
ments and our pleasure at your re-
turn. Columbia awaits you with open
arms"
Columbia must put the sentiment
of this message into action and give
the boys the biggest and the heartiest
welcome that homecoming soldiers
ever received. 1t should be welcome
in which not only the relatives and
friends of the soldiers take part but
one in which every citizen of Colum-
bia does his share.
Probably no other division took
quite the part in this war that the
Thirty-fifth Division did. We must
show these boys that we realize and
appreciate that they suffered, fought
and won.

VALUE OF JOURNALISM WEEk

1t is an accepted fact that through
organization the best results can be
had. Journalism Week, an annual
event at the School of Journalism OF
this University, helps materially tC
organize the efforts of the newspaper
men of this state along the line OF
progress.
For the newspaper men and women
of this state Journalism Week is a
veritable "gab fest" During Journal
ism Week man may talk and hear
talking about newspapers to his
hearts content. Nor is this talk
mere idle clap trap" Rather it is
constructive discussion.
Editors of small country weeklies
and of large city dailies discuss their
respective problems. Experts on all
phases of newspaper work tell of their
experiences. Writing of verse and
prose, and energetic newspaper cam
paigns for public welfare and better
ment are stimulated by prizes offered
by the Missouri Writer'S Guild and
the Missouri Press Association.
The social side of Journalim Week
is not sighted. Entertainments are
arranged for the visitors. Pleasant
and lasting friendships are formed
Al. 4 an
of the state.
Laying aside all thought of advan-
tage that Journalism Week is to Co
lumbia, it is decidedly helpful to the
individual, the state and the Nation. 1t
fosters that spirit of helpfulness and
cooperation among the newspaper
men of this state, which leads to the
common good.
