M24 TELLS OF ROLLA JUS'S SUCCE8S Director MeSae Talks' at School Of Mimes Baaquetm StrLevb. Director A. L. McRae of the Mis souri School of Mines and Metallurgy at Rolla gave a report of the achievements of the graduates of the institution at the first banquet given by. the alumni and students gBfcsday night in St.

Louis in the AnijKotcl. Students of other parts oftWstate held similar functions In Kansas City -and Joplin. Doctor McRae said the school was established in 1871 and conferred its first degree "three years later. From 1874 until degrees of Mining Engineer and 30 degrees or Civil Engineer were tendered graduates. From 1891, when the Bachelor's degree was first conferred, up to and including 1915, 501 degrees were given to 400 men and three women.

Of this number 'only six have died. In making this analysis he said that it proved that mining engineering Is not a hazardous profession, as generally believed, and that the students are above the average in hardiness. He said that 85 per cent of the grad uates follow their profession. He then told of the accomplishments of some of the graduates. Judge Albert D.

a member of the Executive Committee of the school, told of the progress made by D. C. Jackllng, a former graduate of the school, and president of the Utah Copper Company. He was graduated at Rolla in 1892 and his annual income today, accord ing to Judge Nortonl, is $1,000,000. Charles L.

Wood, editor of the Rolla Herald, spoke of the esteenvin which the faculty and students are held by the citizens of Rolla. Carl G. Stifel, son of Otto F. Stifel of St Louis, said that he wanted to extend an invitation to his fellow-students to attend the world's championship baseball series, which he said would be partly played in St Louis next October when the Browns, his father's baseball team, would compete.

ACKERMAN. (United 'Press Staff Correspondent) BERLIN, Dec. 31. As the 1915 twelvemonth draws to a close the German campaign spreads to more foreign lands: to Turkey and Egypt Many enormous battles and campaigns in 1915 have decided the war in certain war theaters. In the Russian campaign the Russian army was pushed into Russia.

Serbia has been entirely submerged: Belgium is occupied. Eight of France's richest provinces, with nearly three million people, are under German control. Gernianyjias lost most of her colonies and her overseas commerce. But between the Central Powers and the Allies there has been no decisive battle, no deciding campaign. Botli Bides await with equal confi dence and determination this contest Whether it will be fought or avoided, no one knows.

Events will deolde. The fate ot Belgium depends upon the outcome, if the war is a draw. Bel gium's fuiure will depend upon the peace terns. Peace today depends upon the solution of the Belgian question. Until England and Germany come to an understanding on Belgium's future the war will continue.

These statements have been made so often that the United Press the censor to pass this article to tell the outside world what everyone here talks about During the last few weeks two things became evident England declared that she will not make peace until Belgium' is evacuated. Germany is determined that Belgium will not be given up until Germany is assured that it will not be a political or military ally of Great Britain's. ot Ei en the Kaiser Knows. For several weeks, I have asked high officials what Germany is going to do with Belgium. The answer has been that not even theKaiser knows.

This undoubtedly is true. Much seems to depend upon the future progress of the war. In Germany there are two parties with regard to Belgium. One wishes to keep Belgium. The other wants to give it up.

The line is not distinctly drawn. Many think Germany should keep Antwerp and the forts of Namur and Liege, or that Germany should Lave the right to gafrlsdn those fortresses. Others helieve Germany should keep Antwerp as an outlet to the channel for Germany. Others wish Germany to keep all of Belgium, but they are considered a minority. There is a general feeling that Bel-glum should never be permitted to return to the position she held before the war.

It is felt that Belgium was not neutral because of the documents found in Brussels showing informal discussions of conventions between ueigiuni and England about landing British troops in Belgium In case of a violation of Its neutrality by Germany, which Germany considers, in effects, treaties. The universal opinion seems to be that Germany will not give up Belgium while there Is a probability, of a renewal of these conventions. The fear exists that England may in the future use Belgium to defeat Germany. Germany considers that she holds within her hands the terms of peace and that she has won the war so far as the war and 1915 is concerned. It is asserted, however, that through England control or news channels, what are considered victories here reach the world us defeats.

Or, If not as defeats, as indications that Germany is weakening. This breeds concern in Germany that when it comes peace-making time the Allies will cause any peace terms to be interpreted as Germany defeats, especially if Germany shows a willingness to evacuate Belgium. It is said here that the Allies will declare that Germany is defeated or she would nevjr give up Belgium. Many Germans want to keep Belgium beca.se they think it will be the best evidence that Germany has won the war. MHl'ns Spent la Belgium.

Many things' are interpreted as evidence that Germany Intends or does not intend to keep Belgium. One Is that Germany never would have spent the millions of marks for bridges, new railroads, public buildings and other improvements, if she wasn't going to keep Belgium. A large government printing establishment has been erected in Brussels. A wealthy German count, reported to be a friend pf the Kaiser's, has erected a large newspaper office there. On the other hand it is declared Germany could not keep Belgium without giving the people representation in the Reichstag and one official said that would be impossible be cause "we could never have so many French speaking members of our parliament" Alsace and Lorraine are not considered similar.

Less than one-seventh of that territory is inhabited by people of French origin. In Bel- glum there are practically no Ger mans. The whole of Germany, therefore, looks to the Kaiser to decide what Germany's final position shall be with regard to Belgium. The constitution provides that the Kaiser shall make the terms of peace. When the Kaiser does decide his lead will be followed.

Our esteemed and sprightly the University Missourian, Indulges In a speculative rumination on what Daniel Boone-would find if he MALARIA IN U.S. COSTS SIXTY MILLION A YEAR We wish to our customers for their patronage during the last year. May the following one be a -success-full one to each one of you. CHRIS O.

EHINGER 1011 BROADWAY Also the Home of Brook8nd Co. In a few years malarial fever may be regarded as a matter of history, just as we now regard yelow fever, If we only listen to the precepts of preventive medicine. This Is the conclusion of Elbert L. Spence, Instructor In preventive medicine and medical bacteriology in the School of Medicine of the University of Missouri, in a bulle tin recently published on the preven tion of malaria. The loss to the Unit ed States from malaria is, he estimates, $60,000,000 a year.

Malaria is a pre ventable disease. The methods recommended by the department of preventive medicine for the prevention of malaria are the destruction of the mosquito, the preven tion of access of the mosquito to man, prevention of infection of the mosquito with the malarial parasite and the protection of persons against malarial fever by means of quinine. The mosquito gets the parasite from a person infected with malaria. It develops within- its body the descendants of this parasite, which are. deposited in the salivary glands of the insect and placed in the blood of man as the mosquito bites.

There are three kinds of parasites. One of these develops in forty-eight hours, another in seventy-two and a third in from twenty-four to forty-eight. The first two produce the two-day and the three-day chills. The third kind produces irregular chills. If there are more than one family of parasites in one's body, the chills may be more frequent Two families of the forty-eight-hour kind, may develop at frequent times and produce a chill every day or two chills every other day.

The cerebral malaria causes about 60 per cent of the deaths from the disease. The parasite then develops in the brain. The mosquito breeds in clear water. It avoids the sunlight Drainage and the removal of weeds will remove the possibility of its development But in addition to the drains, hog wallows must be filled and broken bottles, tin cans and rain barrels, favorite places of breeding, must be removed. Oil on water will prevent the deposit of eggs.

Quinine Is the greatest protection of man against malaria. When the symptoms of malaria, of which chills are the final determinant are noticed, quinine should be taken regularly. About five grains a day or fifteen every four days will prevent the devel-opement of the disease. TO WORK FOB 1,000 MEMBERS Baptist Church Sets Xew Goal for 1916 Progress of Last Year.
