College Athletics ana Advertising,
A certain politician is said to have
made the remark that he did not care
what the newspapers said about him,
whether it was good or bad, as long
as they kept saying something about
him. This politician had apparently
learned one of the fundamental prin-
cipfes of advertising,
The college that is strong in athletic
sports receives much free advertising,
whether or not the faculty regards it
as good or bad.
There are few subjects so much dis
cussed among educators as college
athletes. In these discussions they
all overlook one point-the CONNER
cial value of athletics to the college as
advertising.
No boy or girl wants to go to an unknown
college. if they can manage to go to one
which is we'll known. It is the college,
mentioned most often in the newspapers
with which most people are familiar
College sports are the spectacular side of
college life in America. 1t is part of
college life, that appeals to human interest,
and newspapers naturally devote space to
the base ball and foot ball teams, the crews
and track teams. The class room has no
spectacular features and 1t lacks the ele-
ments of what the city editor calls "a news
story" 1t is not surprising that the foot
ball captain is written about in the papers
and the professor is ignored.
Nevertheless. do not overlook that fact
the college is mentioned just the same. Its
name is repeated time and again. 1t is
kept in the strong light of publicity, which
has a value, regardless of any other con-
sideration with reference to the effect of

THE WAY OF IT.

His hair is red instead OF black,
As she had planned for him;
His eyes-that should be black as Jet
Are gray, but full of vim;
His stature Is not great, his looks
Scarce warrant him a thought;
But her thoughts go flying to him;
She doesn't check them, but she ought
In fervor oft he's lacking
There's haze DER his designs;
She wonders what he's driving at
And she tries to grab the lines"
OF course he doesn't permit her
He keeps serene his place
And she-she's simply glad to drive
With him at any pace.
Now, in the game OF lie we play,
IT'S he should lead the ace,
And she play her five upon t.,
With shy, reluctant grace;
But, alas, she sometimes leads a five
He takes II with a six.
The ace Is still a mystery
Unsolved-oh, fiddlestieksl

See America First.

Two years ago the railroads insti-
tuted movement they call See Amer
lea First" designed to stimulate travel
in the United States, and though funda-
mentally commercial from the rail-
roads standpoint, 1t was educational
as well in its results and should
have been maintained with vigorous
effort. But this year more Amer
leans are going to Europe than
ever before, and they will scatter
added millions in the various countries
over the Atlantic.
European travel, too, is educational
and a means OF culture and knowledge
for those who can afford 1t, not to be
discouraged, but 1t is nevertheless a
fact that mony of the travellers could
get more education and as much cul.
ture OF a practical sort nearer home.
In Europe, Berlin is Germany, Paris &c
France, London is England, but In the
United States no city, no single state
represents in any fair measure the
characteristics OF the nation to the
man seeking knowledge of the coun-
try. What can one tell OF Californis
who has never been outside of Boston
or New York? Or what does he know
Of the Yellowstone who has only seen
the Green mountains OF New England
Or what does the man who has lived
his life in Chicago know of the
great northwest, with its fertile prai.

An Old Railroad Cry.

President Ripley of the Santa Fe is the

now insists that railway owners are re-

defense some years ago, when indicted
for offenses before reform began. And
late revelations of mismanagement in the
buying of materials and supplies for the
Illinois Central, with which the govern
ment has had nothing to do, indicate that
some railway management is always badly

TO RACE At WOODBB||HEE
Ontario Jockey Clubs Spring Meeting
Opens Tuesday With Running of
the Kings Plate.
(Herald Specially

Toronto, Ont, May 23.-With the
hope of fair weather, society, race
track followers and all lovers of blood
: ed horses will have but one point of
interest tomorrow - the Woodbine
track, where the Ontario Jockey Clubs
spring meeting will open with the
Kings Plate, the first of the import
ant races of the year on the Canadian
turf The opening at Woodbine was
originally scheduled for last Saturday,
but was postponed out of respect to
the memory of King Edward, who in
his lifetime did much to encourage
the breeding of thoroughbreds in Can
ada. The meeting will continue until
the last day of May.
The opening event, the Kings Plate
for Ontario, or as it was originally
instituted under Queen Victoria, the
Queens Plate, is the oldest continu
GUS racing fixture in America, ante
dating by years the Futurity, the Su-
burban, the Metropolitan, or any of
the American Derbies. 1t has been
run without a break since 1860, whAn
her late Majesty Queen Victoria fist
donated fifty guineas with the object
of encouraging the breeding of thor
oughbreds in the provinces. For the
first twenty-three years after its es-
the race had no perma.l
nent home, being run at no less th h
fifty different tracks in Ontario. IN
1883 it was made a fixture at Wod
bine and has been run there ev
since.

San Antonio, Texas, May 23-Ac-
cording to L. w. Roger, one of the
largest grain dealers in the state and
authority on crop conditions, Texas
this year, will harvest 100000 bush
els of wheat and 13,4OOOOO bushels of
oats. The corn crop is also very
promising, he says, and will be fully
twenty per cent higher than last year,
owing to better stand and increased
acreage. Texas last year produced
1O,164,OOO bushels of wheat, II 10000
bushels of oats and 122 100000 bushels
of corn.
