a governness, with little success. The

found out. An artist finally cares for
her.

MISS M. REID GIVES ADVICE
Fayette Newspaper Woman Talks
on Rural Journalism.

Miss Marguerite L. Reid, vice-presi-
dent Of the Missouri Press Association
and acting editor Of the Fayette Adver-
tiser, spoke to a number Of journalism
students at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon
in the auditorium Of Jay II. Neff Hall
on Realities for Women in Rural jour-
nalism."
Miss Reid pointed out the disadvantages
of rural newspaper work for women as
well as the advantages. However, she
said that if one is in bad health, she
might well go into rural work tor she
will gain weight and health.
The Fayette Advertiser is an eight
page paper. Miss Reid gave detailed
account Of her activities during the week.
Monday morning is the time when she
goes for her advertisements. Tuesday
morning is devoted to finishing up work
connected with them. Wednesday morn
ing, proof is read and by Thursday morn
ing the first papers are run off the press.
AT least one-third and often one-half
of the people are against the rural jour
nalist, according to Miss Reid, but if he
uses his judgment and his conscience he
will come out on top. However. many Of
the people come in and tell what they
like about the paper as well as what they
do not like, she said.
The Advertiser is now in the midst Of
fight for better government. This has
gained many critics for it.
Miss Reid advised the students to guard
their tongues and temper and also not TO
mix business with social life. She said
that after one gets used to rebuffs the
work comes easier. She also said that
attending lectures, reading good maya.
zines and travelling are helps. "You can
not have any talent or any accomplish
ment that does not come in handy in ru-
raj journalism" said Miss Reid.

3 RUN FOR PRESIDENCY
Brown, Turner and Olson Give
Their Ideas of How Stu

Be Managed.

Three candidates for student president
of the University spoke before a mass
meeting of students in the University
Auditorium last night.
]. Max McCann departed from the
usual procedure when he introduced all
the candidates for student Office except
those seeking the Offices of cOuncilmen
from the various schools. The candidates
include:
For student president: ]. l.. Olson, lrl
W. Brown, Z. B. Turner: for vice-presi-
dent: Leo Murphy, ]. ]. Reed and c. c.
(~Dan"l Tucker; for SecretaY-treasurer:

outlined his plans for the future. lie
ikened the course of the University TO
that Of a train with the student spirit

dent president necessary 10 see that 1t
runs az smoothly as possible. One thing
that should be accomplished. he said
is 10 sell the University TO the iaxpay-
er." He maintains that budget is more
successful if planned as emergencies
arise than if worked out in advance. He
is in favor of the abolition of the spoils
system and believes that Job should
seek the man rather than the man the
job.
John Olson, the second candidate.
maintains that the campaign should turn
on issues. The most vital issue is the
solving of definite problems which can
be done only by the action Of the studc:,i
body in supporting the right principles
The points Of his platform are: sound
financial platform established by an ct
fcciive budget system; solution OF the
rental problem by requiring registration
of all rooms rented to students: the sale
of activity tickets of wider scope at
reasonable price, and greater economy in
the Savi,ar production which will make
a less expensive yearbook.
Prewiit Turner spoke Of certain phases
of school activities. He urged that the
honor system be regarded as tradition
and that Tiger Honor be paralleled
with Tiger Spirit" Cooperation OF the
student council and the student body
BY the establishment of class spirit is
phase Of school life which has been neg
lecied, and he hopes that steps will be
taken TO increase class spirit, and make
it a part of the University's distinction.
At the close of the candidates speech

Day and urged the students TO write their

SUPERINTENDENT PRAISES
OLD SCHOOLS PROGRESS
Mcguire School, Oldest in County.
Has Library and Parent
Teachers Association.

Among the rural schools of Boone
county, the Mcclure school, two miles
east Of Shaw on the St. Charles road, has
shown perhaps the most marked progress
during the last two years. According to
c. E. Northcutt, county superintendent
of schools, it is one of the Oldest rural
schools in the county and though it has
not large attendance nor a modern
building, it is well equipped for the
work carried on.
"The Mcclure school still has an old.
fashioned school house but this has been
fixed up to meet the needs Of the pu-
pills" says Mr.. Northcutt. "The build.
ing. has recently been painted, inside and
ouS and a water cooler and individual
drinking cups have now been provided.
There are over two hundred volumes in
the school library and for the study Of
history and geography the school is
equipped with large world globe and
a case of six maps. A jacketed stove for
the circulation of heat was installed last
year and also a new desk and chair for
the teacher"
Three years ago, the length Of the
term at the Mcclure school was three
months; now it has been increased to
eight months H. II. King, who has
taught the school a year, has had twenty.
three years Of teaching experience. Al.
ways before, the teachers that the school
has been able to employ have been mex
perienced ones. Mr.. King was FORM
erly county attendance officer. He is
a member of one Of the county textbook
commissions which selects the books to
be used in the rural schools.
A parent.ieachers' association was
formed at Mcclure school this winter
and is now an active organization. En-
rollment in school at the beginning Of
the term was sixteen but many Of the
pupils have moved away from the dis
irict so that now there are only nine.
Each year five grades are taught. Those
being given this term are the first, Sec.
ond, third, fifth and seventh and next
year work in the first, second. fourth.
sixth and eighth will be offered.

COL. L. s. UPTON WILL
INSPECT r. O. T. c. UNIT
Many Decorations Awarded Him for
Bravery During the World
War.

Col. L. S. Upton, chief of staff Of the
9TH Corps Area, will arrive Monday to in
speci the Missouri University R. o. I. C..
and make general survey Of conditions
here. Colonel Upton is soldier of the

Of himself in the World War, having
been decorated with the d. S. c. and the
d. S. NJ. by the United States, the
award of the officer Of the Legion Of
Honor and the Croix de Cuerre with
three palms by France; Companion Of
the Order of St. Michael and St. George
by Great Britain; Italian War Cross by
Italy and the award of the La Solidar
ida, second class, by the Republic of
Panama.
The citation for the D. S. c. was for
extraordinary heroism in action near
scissors, France, on July l8 and l9,
1918. His line being broken by a gap in
its center and all his battalion command
ers being killed or wounded and all his
reserves being in the thin line, he esiab.
lshed himself on the extreme front and
conducted a personal command under
intense fire for twenty-four hours. His
presence and his example Of fearlessness
inspired his weakened line thus to guard
the unprotected flank of the whole ad-
vance and beat of violent cOnnter-at.
tack.
The citation for the Croix de Cuerre
and palm by the French is also citation
Of personal heroism for leading his men
over uncommonly hard ground. After
two days intensive, fighting with food and
water hard to obtain and much fatigue
from the two days fighting, he pushed the
enemy back for eleven kilometers, cap
tured 200 prisoners and two cannons
and a great amount of ammunition. The
D. s. NJ. and medal of Officer of the Le-
gion of Honor were for heroism displayed
in the fighting north Of Verdun in Octo-
Der, 1918.
