higher concern than the physical health

cember II and IS. The Games Commit
tee have added two special races-50-yard
and 220-yard. scratch. There are plenty
sprinting events On the programme, but
they are handicaps, and not the very
best opportunities when an athlete is out
for a record. Wefers is in record form
and has expressed himself ready to lower
the worlds record for sthe 50-yard dash.
The worlds best figures for the distance
is So seconds, made on December IL, 1894,
by t.. e. Myers, but those who will be
fortunate enough TO be present on De-
eefaber Is will see this seemingly invinci-
Bile record demolished.
Wefers will not be the only starter in
the two scratch events. j. H. Rush, of
the Chicago A. A., who is now at Prince
ton College, VIII toe the same mark, and
the struggle for first honors will surely
eclipse anything ever seen on the track.
Rush is the athlete who gay Wefers such

close was the finish that the expert timers
voted Rush to have lone 8 As seconds as

The mountain blossoms are much more
intense than those of the same species
OF flowers grown at ordinary levels.
The leaves, also, have deeper and rich

shows that chlorophyl is more abundant
In Alpine plants than in those of the
plain. One fact which seems quite
natural, yet is very interesting. is that
on the mountains plants have relatively
smaller aerial organs and larger sub
