HEA future of theState of Missouri being based

. youth of the state, upon the generations that are
now beingieducated in the schools and colleges of Mis-
souri, we, the undersigned merchants of Columbia, both '
as business men of this city and as citizens of Missouri '
take this opportunity to congratulate Dr. Stratton Du-
luth Brooks upon his formal inauguration as President
of the University of Missouri. The University has at
all times stood for the highest ideals of the State and its
people and its former directors have each served to en-
hance the prestige and power. We are certain that such
measures will characterize the administration of Presi-
dent Brooks, and that through his advice and influence
Missouri will continue to grow as one of the most rep-
resentative and democratic of America’s educational
institutions. ~ .  ; ~
