sity of Identifying the term Mister
For, at last. the man who is only Mis-
ter, but whose Judgment is sought and
whose life is followed as an example
when he has no title to lend him
standing, is the true mark of Ameri-
can manhood. am, therefore, per-
suaded that the sooner we begin the
teaching Of that basic truth the better
for the young generation.
do not think for one moment that
our young men should not aspire to
the high positions, for that is laud-
able, but the promotions to high Of
fees and position should be incident to
the real Mister, who should be broad,
honest, clean and industrious and one
who is able to win the laurels in an OPP
en- field contest.
When these principles are ground
ed in the minds of the young, merit
will be the reason for preferment in
stead of for criticism and an unearned
title.

market which were inclined to show
little weakness, though not material
enough to affect the following range
of quotations which governed this
trade Of yesterday and today.

packers, $6.25 to $685..
SHEEP Trade quite active as the
result of a more desirable class Of Of

the available supply was meager.

ST. LOUIS LIVE STOCK MARKET

CATTLE.-The demand for steer
cattle continues unaggressive, and al
though the market at the start this
week was fully steady, a decent run
today broke values fully 15c- to CSC
under yesterday. The effect of this
decline extended to butcher cattle of
all classes, they dropping fully 25c
under yesterday, though this decline
just offsets similar advance scored
during early days Of this week, leav-
ing the trade steady with the previ-
Gus weeks close.
Beef steers. $3.50 to 1925; yearling
butcher cattle, $6.25 to SO; beef cows,

CHEMICAL BEEF NOW

If all this talk we have been hecrinp
about "cowless milk" were not so alb
surd, folks with little sense of iiumol
would be apt to roar about takers and
become angry ever the project'.d pois-
oning of human beings by imitation
food products.
But it is to laugh.
We now hear that certain scientists
claim that it is not beyond their in
genuity to invent beef "that would
be as good as COW beef" Indeed,
they say that they have accomplished
it to certain degree. Read the for
mula as printed by ono of them:
"a pure water-soluble protein has
been extracted from soy bean meal
and grains of high protein content. 1t
tastes and resembles the real extract
of beef and can be produced at about
a tenth Of the cost.
Heretofore il has been taken fol-
granted that extract of beef was the
essence of nourishment, but now we
learn that in the process of making
the newly nuci, talked Of 'vitamines
are destroyed. Whereas the protein
product is literally teaming with
them. This discovery should be de-
veloped and is worthy of a great deal
of consideration even in these days of
the declining high cost of living.
Delicious and nourishing boullion
can be instantly made by dissolving
the desired about in hot water, or add
the product to a pot of boiling vege-
tables and eliminate tie old fashioned
soup bone that used to go free with
the butchers smile, but which now has
become bone of contention"
And thus you have chemical beef.
Hurrah! But the instinct of tie hui
man palate is overlooked That pal
ate has been tickled with good solid
beef for untold milleniums, and it will
take untold centuries to catisfy that
palate with chemical soup in place of
the real article.

PUTTING UP A
STRONG DEFENSE

Sheriff John G. Hunt returned the
last of the week from his second re.
cent trip to Dayton, Ohio, where he
had gone for the purpose Of bringing
back for trial Roland Phillips, about
80 years old, who is charged with
having sold a stolen automobile to
Shelton T. Horn, at Bonnie Terre. On
his first trip to Dayton in this case,
Sheriff Hunt was accompanied by
Prosecuting Attorney W. E. Golfer.
On that occasion the defendants at
torneys, Of which he is supplied with
three, fled habeas corpus proceedings,
against which Prosecuting Attorney
Golfer made hard and winning
fight.
The defendants attorneys next re-
sorted to an appeal, which tied up fur
Their proceedings until the appeal
could be decided, SO that Sheriff Hunt
was compelled to return empty hand
ed. He returned again the first Of
last week for his man, but an addi-
tiohal fight was being made by the at
torneys for the defense, and again he
was forced to return alone. He has
the assurance, however, that soon
there will be no other recourse left to
the defendant than to be brought back
to Missouri, where he will be compelled
to answer the charge against him in
Bonnie Terre. Sheriff Hunt is strong
~ impressed with the idea that there
is considerable money, as well as Gin
fluence," back of Phillips, which ac-
counts for the hard fight that is being
made to prevent his being brought
back to this state to answer for his
transgfessions. And these same cir.
cumstances would also indicate that
he is guilty, as charged.
On his latest trip Sheriff Hunt had
the pleasure of meeting Gov. Hyde, as
well as 0hio's Governor.

ON DIGNIFYING "MIsTER"

A suggestion from Hon, o. L. Mum
ger in the Missouri School Journal;
am of the opinion that the parents
and teachers, preachers, lawyers and
doctors make wrong impression up
on the youths Of this land, from the
cradle up, not Intentionally, but do so
without giving the matter sufficient
thought.
Titles and position are continuously
impressed upon the young mind and
that becomes the ruling passion, when
in fact it is not the proper base upon
which to build true character.
I am of the opinion that the nation
at large would secure a much greater
benefit if it's youths were taught to
so build that the term Mister would
become more dignified than it has be-
come.
A youth of ordinary sense, with
the required amount of money, can
within given number of years be-
come physician, a lawyer, a minis
ter or college professor and the pre-
fix is automatically attached 20 his
name and it remains for life as an
element of worth to him, sort Of
distinction amongst his fellow men.
A man may become the Judge of the
courts, he may become a Congress-
man or Senator and this may be at
tanned by combination, shrewd tactics,
or by means that are questionable;
but the very fact that he has become
elevated to high office gives him pres
tige and an advantage over his fell
low men and in many instances with
out cause or justification. But the
title stays with his as an advantage,
while the man who has only Mister at
tached to his name has to so live that
he can carry that title SO high that it
is never put in question. For with
accusation, or when his character in
under suspicion, Mr.. Jones becomes
Jones, and soon he becomes old man
Jones, and one step down and it is old
Jones. Hence the Importance Of teach
ing the youths of the land the neces-

COOPERATION

This word is exactly the opposite of
socialism and paternalism. Co-opera-
ton does not depend on state laws and
state taxes to support what it under
takes. 1t recognizes the necessity of
brains, experience and industry and
does not try to get along without cap
ital. 1t divides profits in proportion
to the service rendered in producing it.
