GET OUT OF DOORS
Get out into the open!
The beautiful stretches of country
around Columbia are at their finest;
the autumn air Is fresh and Invigorat
ing; there are no "mid-semesters" or
finals to hinder. Don't mope around
in a stuffy room these glorious after
noon, Saturdays and Sundays.
The scenic beauty of the meandering
HInkson, Lovers' Leap, Balanced
Rock and a dozen other bits of Na
ture's artistry .are within short dis
tances of Columbia. Visit them; the
outing will do you good.
IlEFIXED HAZING AT jr. U.
"Safe and sane" hazing at the Uni
ersity of Missouri has come to stay
No one suffers by the change.
A decade ago the custom was at its
height Seniors sided with the hazcrs,
and juniors were almost the sole pro
tectors of the new students. Many
times all four classes massed in one
melee.
Churches, Y. M. C. A. and students
combined this year to welcome the
first year men. Friday night the sen
iors of the College of Agriculture gave
a "feed" for freshmen. Great blocks
of ginger bread and boxes of apples
replaced paddles. At the Y. M. C. A.
"stag" reception, as well as In en
trance lines, sophomores were seen in
every hall helping freshmen they had
never met before.
Yet, to the surprise of many, the
little skull cups are still worn and
the general behavior of the new men
is entirely satisfactory
The new glad hand and student
brotherhood has come to stay, and
the'old nuisances have passed without
noticeable regret
Churches Flan Campaign for Gaining
Affiliate Members In Unlrerslty.
About forty members of the va
rious churches met Sunday after
noon at the Y. M. C. A. to discuss
plans for the "Student Sunday,"
which will be observed by all the
churches Sunday, October 8.
Each church will appoint a commit
tee of from thirty to forty members
who will find the students who ex
press preference for the denomination
and will extend to such students a
personal invitation to attend services
at the church. The slips relating to
church preference, made out by stu
dents at, the time of enrollment will
be used in this work by the commit
tees. The plan that will be followed I:
that of an "affiliated student mem
bership," meaning that the student
places his membership with the Co
lumbia church for such period of
time only as ho remains in the Uni
versity. When he leaves Columbia,
his church membership is transferred
to the church from which he came
here.
Special programs are being ar
ranged by all the churches and out-
of-town speakers will be secured by
several churches for the morning
services.
Members of the executive commit
tee who were present at the meeting
at the Y. M. C. A. yesterday were: Dr.
P. P. Trowbridge, chairman; Morris
Dry. Christian Church; H. F. Halber-
stadt, Broadway Methodist Church;

PEAS ARE GATHERED BY HAND
Ancient Methods of Harvesting Used
on M. U. Experimental Field.
Workers on the University farm
crops experimental field use the an
cient hand method of harvesting cow
peas and soy beans. The peas and
beans are difficult to gather by the
modern methods because they shatter
badly. The grain has to be cut by
hand with short scythes and gathered
carefully in order to obtain accurate
results. The method followed by the
men closely resembles the ancient agf
rlcultural system practiced before the
Christian Era.
