LETTER FROM DR. WILCOX.
UNIVERSITY, March 11th, 1901.
DEAR ME. EDITOR:
I was glad to read your editorial on the oratorical contest. It was right to the point. We ought either to do enough in oratory to win a contest occasionally or drop out of the league. It is undoubtedly true that the majority of our students are more interested in writing scientific essays on special topics connected with their work than in appearing before an audience and winning it over to their way of thinking. And in this regard we are probably more in line with modern scholarship than the colleges where future preachers abound. But we have some future preachers among us, a good many future lawyers and as many more future teachers who will some day find it to their advantage to be able to stand before an audience and tell them clearly and boldly and effectively what they want done. Are there enough of such men and women among us to make it worth while to join in oratorical contests with other institutions? Will oratorical contests make such men and women better public speakers? Can they do their regular University work and practice oratory at the same time? If so, I hope they will do it as far as they can and help to raise us to the position in oratory that we hold in debating. If not, let us withdraw from the league and keep out of it until we show some interest and ability and find time to train ourselves inpublic speaking.
Yours truly,
A: W. Wilcox.
Mr. Robert M. Hamer law '93 is being boomed a little by the Star for governor of Kansas in 1902. Hamer has risen to an enviable position among Emporia statesmen and is going to be a big man in a few years. But Emporia and Lyon counties are holding so many important offices now and there are so many older men that Will White is led to remark that Hamer is a sapling now and that he should not be cut down, he must wait till he gets bark on him before he runs for governor. The Gazette is for Hamer, however, when he wants the job.
Bob Hamer for Governor.

The Portraits of Our Presidents
BY
GENERAL CHARLES H. GROSVENOR.
This Inaugural year, when the public mind is aroused over Presidential questions is a fitting time to issue General Grosvenor's book. Its sale it already tremendous, and will perhaps exceed that of General Grant's Personal Memos.

WASHINGTON, D. C.
Every patriotic American desires to read what General Gervon has to say of Washington, Thomas Jefferson Andrew Jackson and the other Chief Executives of the Nation. Everybody desires to read what General Gervon, the stuarch旧 Republican leader in Congress, will say about Washington, the son, the father of the democratic party.
General Grosvenor has thrown into his sketch of Jackon all the fire and energy of his nature. The biography of Thomas Lincoln is as beautiful as the sunrise on the hillslopes. General Grosvenor has personally known all the Presidents since the time of James Buchanan. The General's book will therefore contain history which has served his own personal observations of these great men. General Grosvenor has served in Congress for nearly twenty years, and he has serviced his country in war and in Congress twenty-four large Photogravure Etchings as fine as Steel plates printed by hand, on heavy plate paper made especially to order. These 24 Photogravure Etchings are differ-ent in worth ¥2 each. These Portraits are made from leather or dorsely by the family and near relatives of the Presidents. Two years' time and a fortune has been expended in securing these reproductions. The complete book is well worth the money. When people sell it the most humble American citizen can own it. The biographical sketches are printed in large open type in two colors; the work is so beautiful that when people see it the subscriber. That the same sales is very enjoyable. There is one edition known as the President Edition de Grand Luxe, initial letters hand painted, Portrait hands written title page and illuminated, registered by the publisher. Orders and application for territory are coming in rapidly. A high class man or woman of good standing can soon make a small fortune taking orders in this community, quickly as the territory will be assigned soon Address THE CONTINENTAL PRESS.
