"We can't tell yet how we are going to come out with our track team, but we have some good men returning to school and some of the old men will surely be back before long. We will work out regular and develop what we have to work with," said Coach W. O. Hamilton today upon his return from New York.
E. Bradley of Oklahoma is on the camps and will be out for the team His brother O. Bradley is in training in Texas and may return this quarter. The Bradley brothers, almost single handed, won the inter-class meet for the first year men when they were here last year.

Joe Schwartz at Kansas City will be out. He has not shown much since his entrance into K. U. athletics but the big boy has the stuff that should make him one of the Valley's sprinters.

Wilfred Hilton of Cottonwood Falls will lie in for track.
Rahp Rodley, who won his letter in the broad jump and quarter, has been working out-with Dewall and should be better than last season. Charles Heizer of Osage City did some vaulting with the first year string last spring and should make the Varsity a valuable man this coming season. Heizer is good on the stick events also. Floyd Welch a distance and relay man from Alva, Oklh., is expected in the University soon as he is in training. Coach Hamilton has wired for the athlete's release and the runner expects to get out of the army soon.

Why is Lincoln most loved of Americans? Washington was a greater man of action. In special intellectual attributes Franklin and others have equaled or surpassed Lincoln. What is loved in Father Abraham is the whole personality—I might say the Christianliness, if Christ were not so out of fashion at this moment. Lincoln's business is what was in their moral insight. His mind and his heart were wedded. He was one of the few tender and tolerant spirits who ever climbed the twisting ladder that leaded to political eminence. No rancor marred his soul, no revenge, no pride
LINCOLN IS LOVED
He met public fury and it passed him by. Against our imperialistic and tricky war on Mexico he refused to follow "patriotism." The youngest member of the Illinois legislature, he was one of only two in that whole body that dared to go on record against public prejudice on the most sensitive issue of the day. When the Civil war was won he stood like a rock against punishing the South. His party in congress and in the newspapers was breathing the usual virtuous ferocity of conquerors. With matchless obliquity he took his stand on reconstruction and it will do any American good to read his reasons for holding out the hand of fellowship to Louisiana. The redblinded ones were protesting against such foolishness. What a mollycoddle Lincoln was, with his malice toward one and his charity for all! How serene and noble he leans; now that the angry dust of those days has cleared away!" Norman Hangroed in Leslie's.
SHUCKS
Some years ago are the private car of former President McKinley stopped in the early morning at a little country town. The president, looking out of the window, saw a barefoot boy lying under a blanket she had scratched during the night that he might stand on the spot warmed by the animal's body.
"How often I have done that same thing," remarked the president to the members of the presidential party, a number of whom were United States senators, whereupon he surprised he discovered that nearly every individual present claimed formerly to have been a barefoot farm boy and to have had the same experience—Detroit News.

"The west is far ahead of the east in athletics in many respects," said Coach Hamilton. "The eastern schools are just considering the plan of making the conches a part of the faculty and giving them positions for the whole year. We have used that plan for years here in the Valley. They have some good ideas that we may introduce in the west."
