BIG BROTHER MOVEMENT

A bath, hair cut, new clothes and g
home.
These are the things which the Elks
of Columbia bestowed last week upon
a 15-year-old boy parolled by the Cir
cult Court before which he had been
brought to answer a charge of delin-
quency.
Suppose he had been sent to a re-
form school until he became the age OF
21. Could a six-year stay in such an
institution do as much in setting the
boy right as will little guidance and
supervision given by the Elks here?
The mind of a 15-year-old youth is
a complicated thing. Being placed in
a reformatory at his age might instill
in the boy desire to "get even" with
society for depriving him of some of
his youthful privileges. His real Grim
inal life might date from the day Of
his release from that institution.
The Elks have started him right
again. They are going to give him an
education. Restraint will come only
when necessary. The boy will be CIV
en- his first taste of home life. 1t will
be unusual indeed If his life does not
go straight from now on. 1t will oe
his only way to "get even" with So
ciety now. The big brother" move
ment OF the country is a great thing

SMALL TOWN ADJUSTMENTS

A philosopher once said that God
made the country while man made the
city. And some newspaper para
grapher who wrote in a garret, and
talked like a parrot, added that the
devil must have made the small town.
But the paragrapher probably left
his home town at an immature age
and several years before the coming
OF the ehautauqua, the movies" new

WE CORRECT ANOTHER ERROR

The Tribune's contention that the
University should be kept closed part
OF the year instead of kept open the
entire twelve months has, it now ap-
pears, another basis than the interests
of farm labor and self-supporting stu
dents. Having learned that the three
term plan released students from the
University at the very time they are
most needed in Missouri for farm
work, from April instead of June, and
permits four months instead of three
as vacation period in which self-sup-
porting students may earn living ex-
penses, our progressive contemporary
discovers another reason for keeping
the States school in Columbia closed
a considerable part of each year.
The Overworked University professor,
pleads the Tribune, must not be made
a 'slave" or a "work horse" He
should "get away from the school
plant" where he spends nine months
in the school room" and "go where he
may find diversion in wholesome avo-
cation presumably away from Co
lumbia.
We are not quite ready to admit that
a University professor requires three
month resting and recuperating"
even though his teaching involves all
the natural and reserve mentality"
One-fourth the year seems rather a
large holiday But here again the
Tribune has been misled. Under the
three term plan the University pro-
fessor teaches only eight months in |
stead of nine. He is not required to
teach longer, indeed is discouraged |
from doing so and when he voluntari-
ly teaches half term longer in a year
he receives extra salary therefor-and
ten weeks vacation. If he does not
get abundant holiday he has only him
self to blame. This is one reason why
the members of the University facul-
~ III oCNACt AhdAA DdAlObt NONCu W a
jority of more than two to one in favor
Of the change. The entire faculty, We
are credibly informed, not only did not
vote -four times against the plan" now
in use but voted only once directly on
the question and that vote was over
for the three term plan.
If teaching ten months instead of nine
and at increased salary makes
Slaves" of the professors they choose
their own servitude and are bearing
it with equanimity.
The three term plan, in normal
times. keeping the University in Co.
lumbia open the year round, will add
to the attendance of stu
dents, increase the efficiency of the $
school, render it of more service TO !
the state and add to its already high
and growing prestige as a leader
among American Universities.

high school buildings with gymna-
Sums "and everything"
A survey of amusements found in
seven little Middle Western towns was
conducted recently with the following
results:
Movies" were found to lead nu-
merically, whereas ten years ago they
were not existent. Going to church
was found to have a slight lead over
pool and billiards in the recreational
scale. The chautauqua was found to
be just twice as popular as baseball,
which raises the question of what
really is the great American game in
the corn belt.
Other amusements, common to ev-
cry small town, are the agricultural
fairs, old home week celebrations,
street carnivals. an occasional circus,
an annual Fourth of July celebration
(sure to bring rain to a thirsty and
languishing corn crop). lodges, church
socials and picnics, public dances and
easy access to good fishing creek.
oh, no. Mr.. Paragrapher, you don't
understand the small town "as she is
played" You left little Homeburg
too soon. Some day you will wander
back, when you hairs are gray, to the
little village where you were born
And then you will say it is, to you,
the sweetest place on Gods green
earth.

MRS. MARGARET A. CONNER

Margaret A, widow of the late Charles
F. Conner, died at the ancestral home of
the Conners on South Ridge, Montyille,
Oct. 10th, after an illness of years of a
paralytic nature, having lost her first
born daughter, Agnes Mabel, in Novem-
ber, 1904, and her husband in May, 1912,
after lingering sicknesses. The obsequies
at the home were conducted by her late
husbands cousin, Franklin F. Phillips,
assisted by Rev, E. A. Dinslow. There
was singing by local quartette. The
floral tributes were beautiful. The house
was thronged with kindred and friends
Mrs. Conner born July 26, 1852, was the
daughter of Nathan and Margaret Dry
anti Brooks. Her school days were pass
ed at South Montville, those memorable
school days, including the singing school
and the Sunday school, and she the very
acme Of their inspiration. Her devotion
to her husband, the rearing of her two
daughters, one of whom, Miss Erva, sur
wives, a monument of devotion to her
mother, her zeal for the church at South
Montville, into which she came by pro-
fession of faith and baptism in June 1868,
and her interest in the grange and all
social and charitable functions are radi-
ant in the memory of kindred and friends
The lingering sickness and deaths of her
daughter and husband never for a mo-
ment shook her faith, nor shattered her
expectation of being reunited with them
in the cline beyond the storms, nor lent
plant t. her voice, now stilled on earth
Months before her demise she named as
the text to be used at her funeral St.
Paul's glowing words, "Our light afflic-
ton, that is but for moment, worketh
for US far more exceeding and eternal
weight of glory" Such was the faith,
the optimism and the heroism of a lady
physically frail, that impei us to turn
from the gloom of the grave to the tram
guilty of the stars of heaven.

Here are the hairs growing gray;
There are the hills everlasting,
There are the fair gates of day"
