BOYS GOOD POULTRY JUDGES
Three Columbia Pupils Win Special
Recognition.


Three Columbia boys, Max Finni-
cum, william Bryan, and Merle Ber-
rie form a poultry judging team that
is second to none of its kind in Mis-
souri,. Ehe team has been mentioned
in many states since its activities in
the Missouri State Fair.
These boys take miscellaneous
group of hens and select from it the
hens that are layers, culling out the
non-layers. During Farmers Week
they not only demonstrated the Gull
ing test but exhibited their own chick
ems in the poultry show. Each boy
won a first prize. The boys learned
about chickens through hard work
and study, under the direction of the
poultry clubs. There is a club in
each OF the grade schools, organized
through the efforts of w. L. R. Perry,
VINO is also state organizer of poul-
try clubs.
Missouri" says Mr.. Perry who like
any good organizer is an enthusiast" /"
produced $76,000,000 in poultry and
eggs last year. In short Missouri's
poultry crop is more than her mule
or wheat crop
"This is true in spite of the fact
that each hen in Missouri lays only
ga eggs year. Think what the fig
ures might be if each laid what she
should, 12O eggs. To make Missouri
not only the greatest poultry state in
the United States but to make real
educated poultry men and women for
the future is the work / am doing
through the boys and girls clubs"

Smaller Crops, Higher Prices Fore
cast of Govt Official

Decreased farm production next
year and a consequent increase in the
cost of living, due to dissatisfaction
Of farmers, was predicted before the
senate postoff1ce committee by James
l. Blakslee, fourth assistant postmas-
ter general.
More than forty thousand answers
to two hundred thousand questionnair-
es sent to farmers, he said, indicate a
condition disqueting and portenuous
of disastrous consequence
"A report summarizing the contents
of the farmers answers prepared by
George L. Wood. superintendent Of the
division of rural mails, was read by
Mr.. Blakslee, saying that the farmers
were tired of receiving low returns for
long, hard periods of toll while city
dwellers lived in lease and comfort

600 MILLION FOR MARS

| The most absurd idea for squander-
ing away six hundred million dollars
of taxation annually is before Con-
gress in the Universal Training Bill.
The bill provides for four months
training for all youths between the
ages of IS and 81, inclusive.
Exponents of universal training
maintain that it is a measure OF pre-
paredness and that it has undcubted
value as an educational and disc;plin-
airy institution.
In regard to the preparedness value
of four months of military training
| little can be said. In case Of war, only
those in training would be fit to i'm
mediately enter the fray, those who
had had their training three or four
years before would be physically un-
fit to enter the war without several
months. of intensive training, their
only advantage would be their ability
to more readily adapt themselves to
the conditions.
The educational advantages Of such
a system are not at all an argument
in it's favor. 1t is estimated that its
adoption would cost six hundred mil
lion dollars annually with 4 cost of
billion the first year. To adopt
such a measure would be wanton
waste There is no necessity to tack
universal training to education.
If Congress wishes to help educate
the youth of the land why does it
not appropriate the six hundred mil
lion annually for that purpose. Es-
timating the cost Of sending youth
to high school at $500, that amount of
money would educate one million an
nually, or almost the entire number
coming of age. With every youth in
the country given one year Of sound
mental training in high or vocation
al school the necessity for universal
training would be reduced to an alb
surdity. Such training would not only
fit the youth to become soldiers more
readily than a four months training
but would also give him what is con-
sidered the very foundation Of our
government, sound education in cit
izenship.

AMERICAS OPPORTUNITY

The desperate situation in Poland,
Austria and Armenia with regard to
food shortage gives opportunity to
America to express her sincerity of
interest towards humanity. The high
motives which ostensibly took us to
war have been questioned by our apa-
thy towards the League of Nations.
Here is a chance, which involves us
in no entangling alliance, to demon
strate that We are champions of the
unfortunate.
President Wilson has asked Con-
gress to lend $3.50 ,000, 600 for the ur-
gent needs of the starving peoples of
Europe. There is not a real American
who would refuse to give a meal to
a starving neighbor. In national
way, starving Europe is our neigh
bor unless our national sensitive
ness is dulled we cannot be so in
human as to. stand by and watch thou
sands perish. President Wilson said
it is unthinkable that we should with
hold help from those i'm distriss. Only
those who fail to think of the situa-
tion can fail to support a bill for the
alleviation of the suffering.

SYMPATHY FOR SIDNEY

The voters slammed you, Uncle Sid
ney,
In the rear and in the jaw,
They've removed the little hookers
From your ever outstretched paw.
They have put the kibosh on you
And they did it with a slam,
You can buy a ticket, Sidney,
Back to dear old Alabam.
You came to US, Uncle Sidney,
Like a storm from Alabam
But you're going back, old darling,
Like badly busted lamb.
Well admit that you were Ground
here"
In a sloppy, boastful way,
And that while the sun was shining
For your folks you make some hay.
But you're sliding. slipping, sliding
On your badly ruffied fur
And your bally feline meowing
Has been turned into purr.
No more you'll grab an inkwell
And hurl it into space
With the hope that it will spatter
Up some politicians face.
No more you'll write an edict
That will fill the state with shame
And mail it to some person
vi state or national fame.
On, we're done with you, dear Sidney,
And we're happy as a clam,
1Or can bundle up your doll rags
And beat it back to Alabam.

THE REPUBLICAN TICKET

At Chicago Saturday night, the ma
tional republican convention, after
four days Of alternate dickering and
voting, nominated Senator Warren G.
Harding Of Ohio for president and
Governor Calvin Coolidge of Massa-
chusetts for vice president.
The convention met Wednesday
with the big three, Wood, Lowden
and Johnson in the lead. far ahead
of the other candidates. The first
ballot Friday afternoon was as fol-
lows:
Wood, 287h. Lowden, 211A.
Johnson, 1874. Hoover, 512. Hard
ing, G5H. Sproul, "a. Coolidge, "a.
Butter, 69R. Dupont, 6. Borah, 2.
Poindexter, 20. Sutherland, II. Prit-
chard, q. Warren, l. LaFolette. "a.
Four ballots were taken that eve
ming, ending with Wood in the lead
with 31415, Lowden with 289 and
johnson with 14O1a. The balance of
the night and most of the next morn
ing were devoted to wire-pulling and
trading.
Wood maintained his lead until the
seventh ballot, on which he had 312
votes and Lowden Biz, while John
son dropped back to 99R. Lowden
gained 100 votes from the beginning
and Wood, who had at one time 314R
gained 27. Johnson lost ground, and
Harding passed him in the seventh
with 105. At this point, the bosses
took charge and Harding began to
gain. Lowden's men began to desert
him, and those of Wood and Johnson
followed them to Harding. Lowder
during the ninth ballot released his
men to Harding. and Harding was
nominated in the tenth by 692 votes
to 80 for Johnson and 1876 for Wood.
Coolidge was nominated on the
first ballot was 674 votes. Aliens
friends nominated him, but could give
him only 66 votes. Johnson and Len.
root received a few scattering votes
apiece.
Senator Harding is not a man Of
special prominence, is a hardworkine
man, taking care of the interests Of
his state and good business man il
national affairs He belongs to the
republican "machine" and can be-
counted on to carry out it's orders
The democrats will be mistaken il
they think he is a weak candidate. FL
will have the entire republican "stand
pat" vote with him, and as for the
independent vote, that depends most
ly on who the democrats nominate a.
Frisco.
Coolidge is a very strong man, ant
the ticket would probably be stronger
if he was at the head of it, and Hard
ing in second place.
The country is surprised at thi
ticket, and probably the convention i
as much surprised as anybody l
could have nominated a better; i
might have nominated one mucl
worse.

Editor Star: You will pardon me
| am sure for not writing sooner in
expression of my sincere apprecia-
tior for the help you gave me in the
fight which has been so glOriously
won.
One of the most pleasing features
Of the campaign for me was the
knowledge that you were wish me and
helping. Your early adherence to my
want you to know that | shall always
remember you gratefully. Now that
the fight is over / am naturally think
ing seriously about the coming ad-
ministratiOn. | sincerely trust that
| will have such an administration as
will continue to merit your confidence
and support. The people of Florida
have been good to me and my only
means of repaying them is by giving
them conscientious administration
of the duties of the great Office tC
which they have Gale dine.
With personal regards, | am,
Very truly yours,
Cary A. Hardee.
X
Senator Fletcher and Mr. Hardet
may rest assured that the men anC
the newspapers that supported then
did only their duty. If defeated, boil
gentlemen would have retained thu
esteem of all who know them anC
would have probably made more mon
ely in Practice and business than the!
will in Washington or Tallahassee.
But the victory of Cats woulC
have been a disgrace to the state AM
the victory of Swearingen woul'
have been a great disadvantage t.
the state, and in doing their best t.
prevent either, the newspapers am
voters have done themselves a create
favor than they have done eithe
Fletcher or Hardee.
The Star is glad to feel that i
possesses the friendship of these tw
statesmen, but it would have sup
ported them if it had never see
either, because their merit is obviou
even to a stranger. 1t hopes tina
with their help the state of Florid
will soon enter into an unprecedenta
era of good order and prosperity.
