CoLuMBu,, Mo-, December 29.--As

Plans havs been, drawn for a. $500, 900

the center cf University activities and
would contain, probably on tablets of
bronze, the names OF those in whose
honor the building was constructed.
The first task is to com plete suit
able mailing list of all the graduates
and former students. When this is
made up, TILL, committees In charge OF
the work fesl that the hardest part OF
thstssk will be done.
presens plans call for central tow

The proposed campaign Is meeting
with favor flom the graduates whose

demand that 1t be useful as well.
In starting this work, the University

Fredericktown Banks Buy Madison Conn
ty Road Bonds.
tFredericktown Democrat News

(Fredericktown Democrat News.)
The Security Bank OF Frederick
town and Bank of Madison County
jointly bought the road bonds of
Madison county, the sale being made
to them Friday of last week by the
county court. Bonds to the extent
of only $277, 1000 will be issued, as it is
believed that taxes sufficient to make
up the difference between this and
$S25, 900 will have been paid in before
all the amount voted is needed. That
decision will save the tax payers the
expenses incident to marketing the
additional bonds.
A number of Representatives of the
bond houses of st. Louis were pres
ent to meet with the county court and
submit their bids on Thursday. Alto
getherseven sale bids were received.
Kaufman, Smith and Emert offered
$9S 90 with interest on the money at
per cent until after tLe first with
drawal and then 8 1-2 per cent on
daily balances; G. H. Walker & Go.
and Witaker, Smith & Moore made
the same bid which was 1925, cash,
the county to do whatever it liked
with the money; The Mortgage Trust
90. and Mississippi Trust 90. also
made the same bid which was $97.75,
per cent on daily balances; the bid
of the local banks was 500 so, IL
daily balances.
After going carefully over the bids,
the court decided to reject all the
bids. An opportunity was then given
the buyers to submit new bids the
following day. they got into COM
munication with their houses but
claimed they could not give any more
than their original bid. In the mean
time, however, the local banks got
together and offered $97 so and A 1-2
per cent on daily balances, which dur
ing three years, estimated as the time
required to build the road, would net
the county 5000 more than any other
offer. Contract was thereupon made
with the banks to take the bends.
We have heard some complaint that
the bonds did not bring par. AS q
matter of fact, several of the buyers
stated publicly that they would give
par and premium of thousand
dollars, but of course no interest on
the unused money. The purchase by
the local banks on that basis actually
means thatpremium ofseveral thous-
and dollars was paid. 1t actually fig
ures out 1000 more than the next best
offer.
Most people believe the bonds sold
exceptionally well. They brought a
better price than the Bollinger county
bonds and better than any other issue
of which we havd heard. w
