Forry-Gve Tears ago the Constitution
'Mi-souii in its pm-ent form came in-
obeiog. )i was a product of the day in
cli it uas Lorn. It met the heeds d
' pwiod.
"Jt was ad.'(ilrj just following the great
Finnic bf 1870. Just at a lime when the
flfople of the Stale were excited about

financial ulicies of State and local official.
K-'Its puriuu- and plan was that of a

;upou the action of Stair and local of
: bilali The present constitution is ad
fBjiisUy adapted to such a policv. There
were great restrictions placed upon in
cwporaled cities, and the functioning ot
tale, lucal and city courts. There was
inadequate provision made for schools
ia rural districts, for proper co-operation
with the Slate in agricultural interests.
Ji-'was formed tn meet the needs of a
population of seme two millions of pco-
. pie living in rural disricts. It has not
provisions t cojie with the complex in
Hernial proUrms that have arisen in a
population that is now near fifty per
cent urban.
'Missouri con'litution sacrificed the
statement of fundamentl law and flex
ibility for detail and slain. Hence,
ve are met with the necessity of contin
ually trying to amend our constitution to
meet new conditions that Inevitably arise
With the continued increase in popula
tion and the inerraed complexity ol in
dustrial and social relations.
Indeed il seems to be the opinion of
the forward looking men of the state
that the shortest road to the reforms
which will put Missouri on the lift of
progressive and well-governed slates it
a new constitution, a new instrument
Sith which to make possible reforms in
education, the judiciary, taxation, city
charters, good roads and stair finances.
So let us discard the old ao! put on
the new. Let us have a new Stale con
stitution which will be the fundamental
law of .the state and rut a code of restrictions.
Why shouldn't the scruples in regard

On Modern Uirisliantiy.
The importune of Chrisianiry to mod
ern world life has been talked .of ao .re
peatedly that il is trite. The very
words close the wind and ears of the lis
tener to their import.
From the time that Ch'rVt waa bom,
to the prrtcnt day, rantings against
Christianity and Christian teachings have
increased with dynamic force. Xlany
men go so far as to advocate doing away
entirely with th belief In- the Bible.
of living on a purely scientific basis, of
liring for one's own development alone.
This is particularly true of rhose foils
who have attained some education and
antral degrees to lean on complacently.
Thry say the rhurib failed in tbe War,
in all the movements it has undertaken.
They say that men of brains arejw Ling
er interested in tlieology, that preaching
is futile.
These men, however. Icaie out-of ac
count that most of them have been rear
ed b Christian mothers, its. Christian
homes, under tbe inuence of church and
Snndiv School. Nevertheresa one of
the most bitter denunciators of the entire
teaching of hie Bible, sends his small ton
regularly to Sunday School.
