WILLIAM DUDLEY FOULKE

Mr. Foulke has contributed to various magazines, is the author of "Slav or Saxon," 1887, second edition, 1889, and third edition (revised), in 1904; "Life of Oliver P. Morton," 1898; "Maya, a Romance of Yucatan," 1900; "Protean Papers," 1903; and at the present time he is engaged in writing a history of the early development of the Venetian Republic.

In reviewing his life Mr. Foulke finds no great failure. He has worked hard for success and it has come to him in good time and in liberal measure. As an encouragement and an incentive to the young people to strive for the higher and nobler things of life he holds up "President Roosevelt as a model worthy of study and imitation."
