ENDS HIS WORK
Charles F. Scott, Acting Presi-
dent EmpOria College
Returns to Newspaper, War Ac-
tiyities and His Campaign.

Charles F. Scott of lola is attending
the meeting of the state council of
defense today in Topeka. For the
last six months Mr.. Scott has been
acting president of the College of
Emporia, but he has now finished his
work there as the new president, the
Rev James Wilson Bean, ID. D., of
Nebraska, will take charge next Mon
day.
Speaking of the work Mr.. Scott
has done at Emporia, William Allen
White says in his Emporia Gazette:
Cherries F. Scott has finished his
aplen1ed work at the. College of En-
poria He has turned over the col
exc N good running order, with
money in the bank for the pay roll
and with we'll organized faculty
doing excellent work. Largely TINS
:las been a labor of love. He did
wdat he did for his church and the
cause of education in it, and he did
no particular profit or honor or
glory in its for Mr. Scott. He did
what he did as a man does what
como to his hand to do-like gen.
,Ieman and a scholar"
Having disposed of the work at
Empor1a" Mr.. Scott said today, Il
IN Ill be able to give such time as
may be necessary to my campaign for

however," he added, that the work
has not been neglected. My friends
IL every district in the state have

made. They tell me that the friends
OF all the other candidates are saying
that Scott is the man we have to
beat and thai would seem to be rath-
er encouraging"
Of he
German attack that was being made
pom him in some quarters, Mr.. Scott
said:
II am paying no attention to it and
cannot learn that anybody else is
worried about it except the fellows

Fitzpatrick made to'a supporter of one
of the other candidates who told him
what he had found in files of ----

of digging thru those dusty files for a
reason or for an excuse?' 'Aw you
