BE A BOOSTER
Boost your college boost your friend
Boost the church that you attend;
Boost the street on which you're dwelling.
Boost the thoughts that you are coralling
Boost the student 'round about you
They can get along without you;
But success will quicker find them
If they know you are behind them.
Boost for every forward movement
Boost for every new improvement;
Boost the instructor for whom you study.
Boost the stranger and the neighbor
Cease to be a chronic knocker
Cease to be a progress blocker;
Boost it till the final letter.
If you'd make Daniel Baker better.

THE COST OF KEEPING CLEAN
Some day I am going to attempt to figure out what propor
tion of one's income must be spent in an effort to keep clean.
The most expensive room in the average home is the bath
room. A big part of our taxes goes for street sanitation and
sewerage.
And can you name an equally small surface in the world sub
ject to so much expense as the scrubbing and polishing of the
teeth? The costs of advertising tooth cleaning essentials alone
runs into the millions annually.
The same is true of soap. Laundry bills are a very great
item in every household ; tailor bills are sometimes even more ex
pensive. Well to make a short story shorter life is a constant
struggle against the powerful grip of dirt or filth.
Think of the time consumed the water used the disinfectants
used the many changes of clothing required and a thousand other
items needed in keeping ourselves clean. Not mentioning the ones
that are needed to keen tin internally clean morallv clean.
And in spite of our fight for sanitation in many cases our
tight is carried on with noteworthy stupidity and inefficencv.
Much of our clothing is unwashable because of the texture.
its use and the design. Fads tends to hinder the war on dirt more
than any other known source.
However we might be more cleanly than we are a vast indus-
trial army is constantly at work at a daily cost of millions of dol
lars trying to keep ahead of dirt.
Look about you on the camups. How many things are there
that could not be made more -unitary and at little cost? I ad
mit that the buildings are cleaner this year than they have been
in the past but there is- immense room for improvement and we
have the labor to do it.
On trips into other states I have visited many college nnd
university campuses and I can truthfully suy ashamed as I am
tnat not one ot them ranked with the slovenly appearance of our
own The Daniel Baker Campus.
Yes while it is costly cleanliness is worth the nrise.
Cleanliness is CIVILIZATION. It is DECENCY. I'm half
inclined to refute the adage: "Cleanliness is next to godliness"
and say that CLEANLINESS IS GODLINESS.
THE COW
The cow is a female qunrduped with
an alto voice and a countenance in
which there is no guile. She collabor-
ates with the pump In the production
of a liquid called milk provides the
filler for hast and at last is skinned
by those she has benefited as mortals
commonly are. The young cow is call-
ed a calf and is used in the manu
facture of chicken salnd. The cow's
tall is mounted aft and has a univer-
sal joint. It Is used to disturb mar-
auding flies and the tassel on the end
has unique educational value. Persons
who milk cows and come often in con-
tact with the tassel have vocabularies
of peculiar and Impressive force. The
cow has two stomachs. The one on
the ground floor is used as a ware-
house and has no other function.
When this one is filled the cow re-
tires to a quiet place where her ill
manners will occasion no comment
and devotes herself to belching. The
raw material thus conveyed for the
econd time to tbe interior of her face
la pulverized and delivered to the au-
xiliary stomach where it is converted
Uto cow. The cow baa no upper
plate. All of her teeth are parked in
the lower part of her face. This ar-
rangement was perfected by an effi-
ciency expert to keep her from gum-
ming things up. As a result sho
bites up and gums down. The malo
cow Is called n bull and is lassoed
along the Colorado fought south of
the Rio Grande and shot In tho vi-
cinity of the Potomac. A slice of
cow worth 8 cents In the cow 14
cents In the hands of packers and
$2.40 in a restaurant that specializes
In atmosphere.
