week.
Everything was quiet today in Juarez,
across the international line, although
some of General Angeles's forces were
reported only ten miles southeast OF
Juarez. There was heavy exodus OF
Mexican residents from Jaurez into EI
Paso last night, including several Car
rama officials, because of fear the town

Rebel activity in southern Mexico.
especially i'll the region of TIE lsthmus
of Tehuantepec Railroad, has grown
much more serious, say official advices
from Mexico City today.
All traffic on the railroad between
Vera Cruz and TERRA Blanca was sus-

about twenty five miles from Vera

dacity increases daily since bands are
attacking virtually every town In the
state at odd times and constantly
harassing the federal garrisons.
General UrquizO, military commander
in Vera Cruz, who ordered the execu-
ton of General Alvarez, in spite of the
writ of Amparo, granted by the Mexican
Supreme Court, is said to be carrying
out a new policy of expelling every one
suspected of being in sympathy with the
Felix Diaz movement.

state of Vera Cruz, has been removed
arbitrarily from office on a charge Of
having given information to the rebels
Of government troop movements. he

Out on Rollins Field every afternoon
nowadays there is group of Tigers
who every once in while make kick

Coach, John F. Miller. A leader of
the squad of punters on Rollins Field
this year is "Chuck" Lewis, who Co

year. Lewis has made some beautiful
punts that have attracted attention of
every man on the squad, while his
weight is sufficient to make him val
liable from that angle.
A new kicker is Root, strong fight

Bluff football man whose past expert
ence makes him worthy OF notice.
When a man can make twenty-five
successful drop kicks out of a possi-

will bear watching" In addition to
Roots drop kicking he has done some

was also there judging farm products.
Mr.. Hughes saw several former
short course students. Adolph kies,
who finished the short course in agri-
culture here in 1915, has 40O-acre
farm near Cape Girardeau. He is
breeding Poland China hogs and cattle
and is known as one of the most pro-
gressive farmers in that locality. Mr..
Kies is personally responsible for at
least a dozen short course students
coming here.
According to Mr.. Hughes, the Col

strong advertising campaign for the
short course. Articles will be pub
lished telling what the short course
students have been doing. o. w. Weav-
er is planning posters, and announce

Mr.. Hughes thinks there will be
more short course students this year
than ever before. He bases his opin-

SPORT

'The University of Missouri foot
ball eleven may or may not be Win
ner this year, but one thing is sure
the teams that defeat the Tigers will
have to play mighty good football, y
said Coach John Miller, head of foot
ball affairs at the Rothwell Gymna-
stun, this morning. He was found
with his dope sheets before him, his
locker plans puzzling him, for never
before has Missouri been so at loss
for accommodations for her athletes.
Asked how he accounted for such
a sudden change in dope at Tiger
headquarters Miller quickly replied
Just luck, that's all We had almost
given up hope of Collins and STAN
kowski-one day we thought Viner
wouldn't make it back. They not
only came but we started right away
running into fellows we hadn't
dreamed were around. We are find

game or two.
However the backfield is the only
part of the machine that can be said
to be experienced. The line, accord
ing to the coach is entirely mex
perienced, but he feels that this fact
has some points in it that may work
favorably for the Tigers. By hav-
ing three coaches Miller hopes te
carry out his idea of playing posi-
bly, three backfields in every game.
Il want to tell you one thing sait
Miller. Lots of fellows are begin
ming to get the idea that the teams
picked, that certain fellows, because
of some experience. are sure of plac

to Lack of knowledge
Officials Say.
is CAUSE OF CRIME

Only 379 negro children out of
total of 1000 attend school in Boone
County. The negro population in the
county is 5000.
There are nine schools for negroes
in Boone County. Eight of these are
grade schools and the other is the
Fred Douglass School in Columbia
which provides both grade and high
school work.
Out of the 379 negro children in
school, only 60 are enrolled in the
high school this year. This means
that only one out of every thirty-five
negro children in the county receives
high school education. The other
319 negro children attend the grade
schools. An estimate of these figures
shows that only one out of every six
negro children in Boone County re-
ceives schooling.
School officials believe that if more
negro children we're required to at
tend school great deal of petty
crime would be eliminated IN the COM
Eiunity. Offenses against the law COM
mitted by negro children are due
largely to illiteracy and lack of
knowledge OF the difference between
right and wrang.
These officials say that the negro
child is normally bright and learns
readily and that there is no doubt tina!
if he were once imbued with the schoo'
idea he would take to it at once ard
soon become an APT pIpil
On the other hand they believe that
| if the negro child is allowed to do as
he rIeases in regard to going to schoo!
just that long will he continue to run
| the streets and be burden to the
community.

stitutions comprise the junior divi-
sion. Instructors from the army
have been detailed to these institu-
tions where military training is
taught.
A senior division of the R.O.T.C.
has been established at the Univer-
sity of Missouri. Men who enter the
University as freshmen are required
under the rules of the University to
take two years of military training.
Men May Choose Work.

ing infantry or artillery work. They
are furnished with all equipment
without cost including uniform,
shoes, hat and other incidentals.
They are required to do five hours
work week, three hours Of which
must be theoretical and two practical

R.O.T.C. has been organized with the
object of fitting men to take an ac-

the old system of military training
which was in practice before the war.
The work being done under the new
system is based upon experiences

encountered during the war.

notion in regard to the tea might lose
some of its popularity if 1t We're gen.

SOME FAMOUS BEST SELLERS
Often, Like Tnnocents Abroad" They
Have Been the First Books Of
the Authors.

Many best sellers have been the
first books Of their authors. Mark
Twain, then an impecunious newspa-
per man with little more than local
reputation for journalistic practical
jokes, persuaded the publishers OF a
western paper to pay his expenses on
the widely exploited excursion OF the
Quaker City. The letters which were
the result of this journey grew into
the book The Innocents Abroad" and
the name OF Mark Twain became an
American household word.
Archibald Clavering Gutter, who had
been a mining and civil engineer and
a broker on the San Francisco ex-
change, possessed a manuscript that
no established publisher could be in
ducqd to touch. So he issued it at
his own expense and in a very short
time the question Of the hour became
Have you read Mr.. Barnes OF New
York;"
The pastor of a church in small
town on the Hudson river visited Chi
cago just after the great fire, saw in
the catastrophe the background OF a
novel with a strong religious appeal,
and in the course Of a few months
awoke to find himself famous as the
author of Barriers Burned Away"
An impetuous southern woman, the
author of one or two books that had
been lost in the turmoil Of the great
civil struggle, went to New York at
the close OF the war with the manu-
script of a novel and a year or two
later the traveller in southern states
was progressing on land by st. Elmo
coaches, on water by St Elmo steam
boats, staying in St. Elmo hotels,
smoking St Elmo cigars and drinking
st. Elmo punch.
1t was a very different matter with
Frances HOdG5On Burnett's Little
Lord FauntIeroy," says the Bookman
That book was the work, not OF a
novice, but of a writer who knew her
meter, who had years before won a
reputation for imagination and good
workmanship and who had already
produced eight books of conceded
quality.

New York city alone has nearly
100000 children attending the public
schools. What splendid opportunity
to provide this vast army of healthy
youngsters with a wholesome and ap-
petizing cracker lunch, done up in a
neat package and still cheap enough
to be within the reach of even the
poorer parents.
We once saw one of these cracker
lunches as got up by a large biscuit
concern in Germany. The paper box
contained six delicious crackers with
marmalade filling, and there was an
empty compartment for a nice red
apple or a couple Of plums, which of
course were added by the mother of
the child. These school lunches, ex-
elusive of the fruit, were sold at 5
