RfST IMPORTANT FACTOR
IN TRAINING ATHLETES
MANY Of Those Who Have Won Sue.
cess Believe Sleep Has Helped
Them to Do so-There Are Few
Exceptions TO This Rule.


Plenty OF sleep plays big part in
the training OF most OF the successful
athletes of today. While some few of
the great performers We see compet-
ing i'm the different events get along
with a short allowance of slumber. 1t
,s clearly noticeable that the ones who
insist on spending goodly part Of
their time i'm the feathers are in the
large majority. Sleep has more to do
with the showing the men make than
anything else. There is no rule gov
ernlng what the men shall eat, each
man using his own Judgment; but with
sleep--every trainer insists on his men
Getting a full portion of that.
Jumpers especially benefit by long
sessions of slumber. 1t is a scientific
fact that a man lengthens, or grows,
NV staying in bed. A boy, lying i'm
bed with typhoid fever has been known
10 add six inches To his height i'm a
few weeks. Jumpers find that the car
tllages in the knees and the cushions
Of the heels expand and become more
sprlngy II given a long rest They
take advantage OF every opportunity to
take the weight off their feet.
Ray Ewry and Prinstein, the great
est Jumpers we have, both long ago
formed the habit OF putting their feet
at an elevation whenever the chance
offered. Both are men who insist on
having an abundance of sleep. The
night before Prinstein was to jump in
the championships at Athens he went
10 bed at o'clock. For several hours
he kept moving his legs beneath the
Quilts with the object I'm view OF keep
ing them Timber without putting his
weight upon the cartilage pads of his
knees.
When Mike Sweeney established a
new worlds record for the high jump
IL was said that he had been in bed
for three days. just taking things easy
Dan Ahearn is another jumper who
believes in always getting all the sleep
possible while Martin Sheridan, who
is also a crack at the hop, step and
Jump, did AZ feet after being forced by
Trainer Lawson Robertson to take a
12-hour nap.
Sheridan and Sheppard both get
along without more than few hours
Of sleep. Sometimes Sheridan goes for
days with only q couple of hours rest
a night, making up for lost time by
putting i'm IL to 90 hours straight. II
is a wonderful thing the way the
greatest athlete in the world gets along
so well with such utter irregularity OF
sleeping hours.
John Flanagan goes to bed early
and fails to arise before noon on tho
day of trial at his worlds hammer
throwing records. Ralph Rose, the Cal
ifornia shot-putter. lived so long II
the balmy climate Of the Napa foot
hills that he formed the habit Of Ions
siestas during his kid days.
Arthur Duffy and Harry Hillmai
both believe strongly in sleep. Before
every race 1t was the regular thini
for Duffy to take n 10-mlnute nap
Hillman, on the other hand, woul'
rest up during the afternoon befor
competing in the armories at night.

There is hotel at Jinja at the Rpon

minister, Archdeacon Buckley, and a
good Catholic priest, Bishop Henlon.
These distinguished prelates expect
to help make the President stay among
the wild men of Bukedi and the cave
men of Mount Elgen an interesting and
pleasing one. They are no vain carpet
knights, these brave missionaries. They
cross savage morasses for 300 miles
alone, unaided save by their granite
faith. Said Archdeacon Buckley TO
me at Ripon Falls: Send Mr.. Roose-
welt to lie and will take him hundred
miles into the depth of the Bukedi
country, where men live in trees and
are still cave men. We shall SEQ great
elephants and buffaloes who hunt the
hunter, and We shall most of all appre-
slate the visit of brave, true hearted

Roosevelt is a primal man, and also
man of ripest civilization. He is a
rarer specimen of our kind than the
okapi of the Congo forests, and where
he goes go good hunting, brave
thoughts, brave deeds. His collection
of specimens and game, his interviews
with the colonists and the half savage
kings and chiefs will be heard and read
ii with universal interest. He will
say and write just what he means, and
his word to the white men and the black
men in the forest will be that of a good
man with a fine brain and a great big
sympathetic heart. No man since Liv-
ingstone, | dare believe, will influence

Other lines of work, which the gov

of corroson of fence wire, -experim ents
in the preparation of new sheep dip,
the extraction Of sugar from pump

pigs in which the animals We're fed
