They are the reward of victories of peace which have! carried the fame of American athletics to all regions where there is a cin- ‘der track or where men compete in contests of physical skill, We yet fall short of the Greeks in our glorification of Olympic victors. They will not ride up Broadway in gold-mounted chariots, or be supported at the public expense hereafter, as was the way in Greece. It is not even likely that Mr. Ryan’s railroads will furnish them with free transfers. None of them will have a statue to perpetuate his fame, though a sculp- tor may find in one of the number a mode! for a new figure on the dis- cus-thrower order. But we have not yet paralleled the Greek deification’ eof athletes. After the shouting is over the Olympic prize winners will return} to their desks or to their patrolmen’s beats, as the case may be. That) they come from the ordinary walks of life, whence also come the nation’s; defenders in time of war, illustrates the democracy of American sport.| Hayes, leaving a store counter to win the exhausting Mar- «thon race, is a type the country has rca- son to be proud. He is a representa- tive of innumerable young men who try out their powers of speed on running tracks or cultivate their muscle in gymnasiums after . office hours and _ Pursue sport as an incident, not as an end. His achievement should serve to encourage rational athletic train- ing everywhere. He is an apostle of sane athletics, The national character of the celebration, the presence of large de tachments of regular troops, the President’s interest, make the welcome to our Olympic victors unique among popular demonstrations, The tribute voices public appreciation of the signficance of their triumph. A new nation of “barbarians,” thousands of miles over sea, beyond the ut- fermost limits of the Greek world, has demonstrated its superiority in pluck and physical stamina over all the world, and the event justifies the, jubilee. How our athletes would fare in competition with contestants from the lists at old Olympia it is unprofitable even to conjecture. But it is not too much to assume that the defeat of the picked athletes of the| modern world is the equivalent of any ancient triumph. ‘| | How our victoriou athlete’ look any one may see who views the procession, Ho w they looked at the! moment of victory, | how Ewry appeared as he made his win-| ning high jump, or!
