Lineal Descendants of Rulers.

game of football, but he won the points
for his alma mater in the shotputting.
Dick played fullback on the Tiger
Cubs that defeated Yale.
1t is not beyond the realm of the
impossible that for the first time in
the history of the nation the lineal de-
scendants of three presidents may
meet in a single athletic combat, when
Yale and Princeton meet on the grid
iron at Princeton next year. Cleveland
cannot, it seems, fail to make the or
ange and black varsity, while Taft
and Garfield will probably be members
of the blue backfield.
The presence of these lineal de.
scendants of our rulers, in athletics,
bespeaks much for the virility OF the
youths themselves, and for che
strength and manliness with which
they were endowed by their sires. 1t
shows that the chief executives of our
nation have sons worthy of their sires,
and kin that is able to win it's own
place in the field of personal achieve
ment For in athletics a man makes
his own mark; there is no royal road
to success. 1t matters not how puts
SAINT your family, if you have not the
stuff yourself you do not make the var
sity. In this light, the nation may
we'll feel a tinge of pride in these
youngsters, who keep alive the best
traditions of their sires' success by
the manner in which they have won
laurels themselves.

DICK GETELAMD

Two sons and a grandson of three
presidents of the nation who are now
In college bid fair to make names that,
while they may not live in histori-
cal tones beside those wrought by
their sires, will show that the progeny
OF our rulers are by no means anemic
lads, the Philadelphia Press says.
There is Charlie Taft, who was the
precocious youngster Of the White
House when bis father, now Prof
William H. Taft of Yale, was presi-
dent. Charlie has turned this pre-
cocity into athletic achievements and,
at the alma mater of his father, bids
fair to make good. He is an adept in
football, baseball and basket ball and
has made good. He is varsity man
in basket ball and will probably be a
regular on both the football and base
ball teams next year.
Newell Garfield is the grandson
of one Of our martyred presidents.
Already at Yale he has won a perma-
nent place on the baseball team as a
candidate for pitcher, and while young
Garfield went in for football, the base
ball chaps kept him away from the
gridiron in order that his good arm
or wing" might not be injured.
Then there is the youthful Dick
Cleveland, now freshman at Prince
ton. This son of the late Grover
Cleveland is a hummer" as the ath-
letic coaches say. In Exeter young
Cleveland not only played rafting

GIRL is CHAMPION SWIMMER
Miss Marguerite Brack of San Fran
cisco in New York to Take Part
in Indoor Meets.

Miss Marguerite Brack of San Fran
cisco, champion girl swimmer of the
Pacific coast, is in New York to spend
the winter, and will take part in most
of the seasons indoor meets.
Her appearance in competition will
be watched with interest. Although
her best sprinting performances do
not compare favorably with those of
Miss Olga Dorfner of Philadelphia, the
American record holder, she has to
her credit a quartcr-mile mark of
7:05, which brands her most dan
gerous rival at the distance to the
speediest fair natators in the coun-
try.
The presence of Miss Brack in the
important metropolitan contests will
give them national rank, for Miss Dorf-
rer is also a promised starter.

THE BUILDING
Of A COUNTRY
The Natural Pride of Those Who
Take Part in 1t.

To those who have built railroads
through and across the prairies OF
Western Canada, connecting that great
empire of grain and cattle, horse and
sheep with the worlds markets in the
east, must be awarded the privilege
OF looking upon their work, and its
results with pardonable pride. If they
Renaissance, and tell of the hardships
and the privations, why shouldn't
they? The broad prairies on which
the buffalo roamed and fed, are now
alive with cities, towns and villages.
Farms-large and small-on which
machinery has chased the bugaboo Of
Iaborious work off the farm, and max
ing farm life one of the most pleasant
and prosperous of occupations-are
being cultivated by men of the highest
stamp of manhood. Many Of these
have inherited from their forebears
the physical strength and the high
type of manliness that was theirs In
the days when they hewed their homes
out of the virgin forest, and made
them what may be seen today, beau
tiful farms In the east. On the whole
the western prairies breed high type
of manhood, wrest from him faults
and diseases which would be his were
1t not for the upbuilding influence and
character of prairie life.
When the builder of the western Ca
madam prairie looks upon the result of
bis work, why shouldn't his chest ex-
pand? It was probably some of this
feeling of pride that took possession
of Sir Donald Mann, vice president OF
the Canadian Northern Railway the
other day in Winnipeg, when he said:
Il am not in the habit Of giving adj
vice, but l have no hesitation Of advis-
ing the young men of Canada, every
young man, to get out and get piece
OF western Canada's land that now
can be had for the asking and be their
own masters"
1T was Sc years ago when I first
came to Winnipeg" he said. "At that
time there were less than 100000
people west of Lake Huron in Canada.
and the only bit of railway in opera
ton was between st. Boniface and EN-
erson-about sixty miles. Today there
are nearly 10000 miles of railway in
actual operation and the population Is
over two and quarter million, a won
derful achievement in such short Pc
Rod you will agree, when you have
contemplated 1t a moment"
At that time all the -four, meat and
many other supplies for our contracts
were brought from the States. Now
consider what the west is doing to-
day. You have grain production ex-
ceeding billion bushels and yet only
q comparatively small area of the till
able land Of the country is occupied.
Five years hence you will be more
than doubling that" -Advertisement.

treal, Canada, which st. Nicholas won,
Baker fairly dazzled the Canadians by
his brilliant work.
