He knew Abraham Lincoln.
Mr. A. G. Proctor, a twenty-one year
old representative of Kansas at the
Republican convention that nominated
Abraham Lincoln, with whom he later
becanle personally acquainted, is em-
phatic in his protest against the gen-
eraf conception of the man who guided
his nation through the perilous days
of the Civil war.;
"Abraham Lincoln," asserts Mr.
Proctor, "was a human being, just like
you and I are. He never outgrew it.
There was never even the suggestion'
of .egotism or conceit about Mr. Lin-
coln. He lived for years in the' rural
communty of Springfield .and was ac-
customed to deal with men on a man
to man basis, and when he went to
the White House, he did not change;
he carried on his business in the same
way and on the same basis as though
he were back in Springfield. Going
into the president's office, during the
war days, was just like going into the
bffice of a country lawyer."
Proctor declares that John Drink-
water, the eminent English interpreter
of Lincoln's personality and life, has
a very erroneous impression of the.
Great American. He holds that Drink-
water has sacrifjced realism for the
dramatic element and as a result
leaves an impression of Lincoln,
which those who were personally ac-
quainted with the man, cannot help
but characterize as unreal.
Lives With Diaughtgr
Mr. Proctor, whose home is in Saint
Joseph, Mich., is widely known as an
authority on Lincoln and the period
of the Civil war., He -.is, at present,
living with his daughter, Mrs. G. F.
Jlulliken, 517 Liiden street. Since he
came to Ann Arbor he has given a
number of addresses on the period of
the Civil war and. has visited with
President Hutchins about the history,
of that period.

He was one of the early settlers
from the north wht migrated into
what was then the Territory of Kan-
sas, to oppose the strength of the set-
tlers from Missouri who were pouring
across the boundary in an attempt to
make Kansas a slave state.
"Above everythi'ng else, Mr. Lincoln
was, a good citizen," Mr. Proctor con-
tinued. "He had all the qualities
which make a good citizen in the
community, and he took these qualities
to the White House with him, finding
that they worked as well in national
affairs as they did in the affairs of a
rural community."
Local Ideas Varied
One of the great factors in the out-
come of. the Republican convention
that nominated Lincoln, according to
Mr. Proctor, and one that is not often
considered, was the sectional.antag -
nism between the East and the West.
The Easterner's idea of the Western-
er was that "he was a' good fellow,
good hearted enough, but not 'to be
relied upon." New York state sent 'a
large, well organized delegation to the
convention at Chicago, with the inten-
tion, implied if not expressed, that
they were going to show the West
"how to to things." It was the re-
action to this spirit of superiority of
the East, on the part of the western
factAn, that- solidified the "wild and
wooly" conventionmen into a single
body in the support of a western man,
Lincoln.
Even after the election the Repub-
lican New York state 'faction felt "un-
easy about the newly elected president.
They felt that Lincoln should have a
secretary who was versed in the art
of diplomacy, -a man, who could deal
effectively with the polished diplomats
of other countries.-

And tobacco smoke is in the air;
Round the table 4nd waiffled platter,
And leave behind every single care.

Till midnight comes too soon.

the nickname she gave him.
Her fortunes are abruptly reverse
when a theatrical manhger.attempts t
persuade her to go on the stage an
when his advances 'begin to 'becom
objectionable to her, a friend recentl
informed of Per address, arrives an
the happy ending follows.
Altohugh "Water, Walter, Every

cards to pick the bridegroom and Wil
Rogers loses. He courts the prohib
