Grant to his friend Elihu B. Washburne. At the same time the library obtained a number of letters and telegrams Grant sent from the fighting front to military authorities in Washington, including a long telegram to President Abraham Lincoln. In the message to the President, dated July 19, 1864, General Grant urged the calling uo of 300,000 more men so the Union forces could strike the final blow at the weaking Confederate armies. Lincoln, with the same end in view, had the very day before issued a call for a million men. Washburne, for years a member of the Illinois delegation in the U. S. House of Representatives, helped Grant get an ^appointment in the regular army. The letters just acquired by the library cover a period from 1861 to 1880. The long friendship between Washburne and Grant ended in a clash of the presidential ambitions of t.he two men, at the time Grant was seeking a third term in the White House. Exercise Excess in anything can be a wearisome thing, and exercise is no exception. Properly taken in the right doses, however, exercise can be one of the greatest stimulants to good, healthful living, the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society observes in a Health Talk.

Unfortunately it does to many people, but these are only two sports of the many which give pleasure to children and adults alike. Exercise can be considered in terms of a hobby, that is any game that gives play to muscles that are not used ordinarily in everyday living, and provides a cheerful mental stimulus. But not all persons can engage in strenuous sports or activities requiring a great degree of energy and stamina. That is why the first step in using exercise wisely and moderately is a physical examination. A good physical examination will reveal any condition that might either prevent or limit exercise. This might be a heart defect or nutritional inadequacies that would retard the body from meeting the strain called for in certain types of play. While certain games are sea sonal, exercise for • the individual person should not be seasonal nor done in spurts. Exercise on moderate scale can be maintained all year 'round, whether it be walking, bending or performing mild calisthenics.
