Keistoricetl Revie^W KEistoricetl Revie^w The State Historical Society of Missouri COLUMBIA, MISSOURI COVER DESCRIPTION: "Quarter twain! Quarter twain! Mark Twain!" was executed by Thomas Hart Benton to illustrate Mark Twain's classic Life on the Mississippi for the 1944 publication by The Limited Editions Club. The 7" x 4%" watercolor and its companion pieces are presently on display in the State Historical Society's Art Gallery. The watercolors were given to the Society by Benton, Missouri's most famous twentieth-century artist. Also on display in the Art Gallery are selected items from the Society's George Caleb Bingham Collection. Bingham was the state's most famous nineteenth-century artist. The Society is open to the public from 8:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M., Monday through Friday, excepting legal holidays. Patrons may visit the Art Gallery from 8:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. PARKING FOR SOCIETY PATRONS The University of Missouri-Columbia recently has begun the con­ struction of an addition to Elmer Ellis Library and the State Historical Society. Visitor parking remains in the same block behind the library and the State Historical Society, but it has been moved further south. Patrons still enter the visitor lot off of Hitt Street. The entrance, how­ ever, is now closer to the intersection of Hitt and Rollins streets. The State Historical Society's quarters now must be entered through the Society's north door (facing Lowry Mall).

SHOEMAKER HISTORY AWARD The State Historical Society of Missouri takes pleasure in announcing the thirteenth round of compe­ tition for the Floyd C. Shoemaker History Award. This $300.00 annual award was created by the late Mr. Shoemaker, the long-time secretary of the Society, for the advancement of Missouri history in the universities, colleges and high schools throughout the state. The annual award alternates every other year be­ tween the junior class students in Missouri colleges and universities and senior high school students. The 1986 award of $300.00 will be presented for the best article written by a fully enrolled junior classman in a Missouri college or university. The award will be presented at the 1986 annual meeting of the Society in Columbia. Articles nominated for the award must relate to the history of Missouri, either to events or personali­ ties. The maximum length of an article is 5,000 words, and a bibliography must be included. Each college or university must select a panel of judges to nominate its best article. Only one article may be submitted from each college or university. Articles may be submitted from each branch of the University of Missouri. Each article will be judged against other nomi­ nations by the Department of History of the Univer­ sity of Missouri-Columbia. Articles submitted for this award will become the property of the State Histori­ cal Society of Missouri. The prize-winning article will be considered for publication in the MISSOURI HIS­ TORICAL REVIEW. The final date for submission of articles is July 1, 1986. They must be sent to the State Historical So­ ciety of Missouri, Room 2, Elmer Ellis Library, 1020 Lowry Street, Columbia, Missouri 65201. EDITORIAL POLICY The MISSOURI HISTORICAL REVIEW is always interested in articles and documents relating to the history of Missouri. Articles pertaining to surrounding states and other sections are considered for publication when they involve events or personalities having a significant bear­ ing on the history of Missouri or the West. Any aspect of Missouri history is considered suitable for publication in the REVIEW. Genealogical studies are not accepted be­ cause of limited general reader interest. In submitting articles for the REVIEW, the authors should examine back issues for the proper form in footnoting. Originality of subject, general interest of the article, sources used in research, interpretation and the style in which it is written, are criteria for acceptance for publication. The original and a carbon copy of the article should be submitted. It is suggested that the author retain a carbon of the article. The copy should be double-spaced and footnotes typed consecutively on separate pages at the end of the article. The maximum length for an article is 7,500 words. All articles accepted for publication in the REVIEW become the property of the State Historical Society and may not be published elsewhere without permission. Only in special circumstances will an article previously published in another magazine or journal, be accepted for the REVIEW. Because of the backlog of accepted articles, publica­ tion may be delayed for a period of time. Articles submitted for the REVIEW should be ad­ dressed to: Dr. James W.
