DESERVED PRAISE.

Not infrequently is surprise folt that President Roosevelt Is able, with all his innumerable executive duties, to keep so closely in touch with the muttudtn- ous happenings of the day. Nor Is it less surprising that he should feel tr- cined to drop a word of running com .ment in an sppreclatve vein, of events as they happen, Those who can see few good points in our strenuous ex- 'ecutive must admit this great merit at least To say of him that he does this to keep in the limelght Ia most .uncharitable, for none can deny that
 f that were his real aim and object, there are any number of other and more effectual ways of keeping himself before the country as an individuality
 Mir. Roosevelt's latest example of this sort of wholesome interest comes with his pleasing letter to Mr. Yer Weibe the Harvard fullback The latter may well feel proud to have received it. as he undoubtedly does, Collegians, no matter to what alma mater they hold allegiance may admire that in MT Yer Weibe's football playing upon which MT Roosevelt congratulates 
 him The Harvard game was won by the handsome kick of one man, Ken Inard But, unlike many colleglans Mre Roosevelt Is not at all blind to the fact that Kennard's wonderful kick was only made possible by the steady and skillful playing of Yer Weibe, who brought the ball down the field till 1t was within striking distance of the goal, only to be called out of the game and to lose the spectacular honor of making the real score. Wrote Mir Roosevelt to him, For the good of the
 team your individual good was sacri-
 feed and through this sacrifice and through the admirable work you had already done, and through Remarks fine kick, a victory was won"
 There is many poor soldier on and ' off the football field in this life-strug- gle, who does the hard, grubbng
 work, which makes possible the fame and praise which others attain What deal little word Of appreciation means to them They may be Ken Inards and among those finally chosen | to do real work on the field of action, though not at the critical moment; they may only be members of the second or third elevens, substitutes who make it possible for their leaders to learn their game; but theirs is a vital and real part in the ultimate victory, as much as they may be forgotten by matter of-fact world, and they deserve real and lasting praise
