WftftTED TO "GO IT ALONE* Man/ Year* Ago Missouri Declared Her Ambition to Become an In? dependent Republic Missouri once bad Intention of set? ting up as nn independent republic all by herself. The Seeslon acts, state of Missouri. 1838-1830, contain a me? morial to the congress of the United States relative to the Santa Fe trad**. Tt tells of an expedition of traders to Santa Fe in 1812 from St. Louis, though It Is not specifically stated that they wont over the Santa Fe trail. The early Session acts of the Mis? souri legislature, starting In 1824, con? tain many Interesting resolutions and memorials to congress on all manner o$ political and historical subjects. Incldentally the Missouri constitution of 1820 starts with the preamble that the citizens of the state agree to form and establish a 'fee and. independent republic by the name of the state of Missouri. Missouri was one of the pivotal states in the history of this country. Tt was made such in the ancient fight in congress over the* slavery question, which ? took up the admission of free and slave states and considered the balance thereof In congress. Missou? ri was also a pivotal state In yet an? other and larger sense?she was the Juinplng-off place for that wild and unknown country called the Wild West -*-the larfd west of the Missouri river. She made the midway point between the frontiersmen of Kentucky and those of the great plains, occupying a generation of history herself as a frontier commonwealth. .1,1 c Jason a Legendary Character. Jason was the leader of the Argo-* nautic expedition In Oreek legend. The equivalent, of his name in Greek is the healer or atoner. Jason was tu? tored and brought up ander Chiron, a (I reek myth renowned f<* his wisdom and skill In medicine, bunting, music and prophecy. Jason's greatest ex-> plolt was his expedition with the Ar? gonauts In quest of the Golden'Fleece. Jason secured this by the aid of Me den, a sorceress who fell In love with him. She protected him from the hulls breathing fire and hoofed with brass which he was obliged, In order to ob? tain the fleece, to yoke to the plow. She also protected him from the armed men who sprang up from the dragon's teeth which he was required tp sow In the fields. Medea fled with Jason and the fleece and married him. Teil years later Jason abandoned her after she had murdered Creusa, Whom Ason had determined to marry.

Which fact gives some color to the superstitions many people have about certain days of the veek being lucky, while others are unlucky. Tuesday seems* to be the bad day of the week; calamities are far more common on that day than on any other day.
