cherished the ambition of witnessing a
successful season for Grinnell in track
and this year the achievement was
particularly desirable in view Of the
favora bic showing which the local
teams made in football and basket
ball
College opinion and student support
came to Huff's assistance in a way
that has not been experienced for
some time and the added interest was
undoubtedly responsible for the ap-
pearanCe Of a few new and promising
candidates who had never had track
aspirations before.
No matter how much credit can be
attached to Hoyt and the few indi-
vidual stars of the season, it must be
recognized that thorough going team
work contributed materially to the sue
cess of the Grnnell team.
The arousing of student interest and
the creator of real track sentiment
in Grinnell. together with the wealth
Of material which Huff expects To- ha
able to work with next year. makes
prospects for future track work in
Grinnell especially bright Track en-
thusasts can not help but look for
ward to next year with the best hopes
for successful season.

CHARLES E. HUGHES

course with a flow of words that roll
as easily from his pen as a brook
through the meadow. 1t is his artful-
ness in the use of words that enables
him to pose as San amateur in poll
tics, while playing the game with the
skill of d professional. Whatever his
ineptitude in other respects, ne is cas-
lily first among presidents in the art
istry of politics, and he would win
next November, were that' the test.
Compare the Witness of Mr.. Wilson
with the straightfOrwardness of Mr.
Hughes. Compare the smooth style of
the one with the rugged dicticn of the
other. The one is as complex in the
use of words as the other is simple.
1t is case of sOnOrOusness versus
strength. Mr.. Hughes is depending
upon the strategy of Straightforward
ness and the strength of sincerity
upon the force of facts, instead of up
on the fiction of a phrase, to win his
case before the jury of the nation
His appeal is to the head and not the
ear of the people; to their intelli-
gence and not to their emotion; to
their heroic side and not to their hys-
terical side. 1t is an appeal to the
courage of the country and not to its
cowardice. Mr.. Hughes could not. if
he would, perform in a year the pO-
litical tricks that Mr.. Wilson can Go
in Il day. The question today is
whether the people want in the White
House for the next four years 4
phrase-maker or a histOry-maker a
man of many sayings, or q man who
backs his words with deeds. There
is a fundamental difference between
the two candidates, which marks the
line of cleavage in this extraordinary
campaign-''Hughes means what he
says"
