Our character. then, ls the image and the superscrlptlon which we cut. upon our life; I say we cut, for however much happens to us and bears upon us from outside causes beyond our control. it ls true, tn the last analysis. that we deter- mine our own character. We hold the tools which cut the legends on our life. We grave the die. we lnclse the seal. What are the tools with which we cut character upon ourselves? The fools are thoughts.

Scotlantfs Greatest Athlete

A. A. CAMEBDWS OUTSTANDING RECORDS

llBy c. n. MCCOMBIE sun-m

1n these days of record break- ing by modern athletes. it mid m" terest some of your readers to heal‘ the story of the career of one W00 set up a good many records lnhls time, and who was. in m‘ 0001100 so far a5 the actual heavy even“ are concerned the Emmi?- fllhlew- and certainly the strongest man who ever made a. name for him- self at the Scottish games.

Alexander Anthony Cameron was born on March 20. 1817. Bl Loch Tralz. in Invernessshlm. but at the age of two went with hi5 father to Glengalmadale, King- lalrloch. Arlyll. Where he 5119M most of his boyhood.

side of the family. and of maternal grandfather it is related that on one occasion; when a cart drawn by a garmn got bogged. the driver sent to him for assistance. seizing the cart by the projections at the rear he heaved it on to firm ground. and remarked, "No wonder the beastie couldn't get it out; I was nearly beat myself."

First Competed at Fort William

At the age of 19 he competed first in the local competitions at Fort William. and in the following season (1897) astounded the natives by doing 45 ft. 4 in. with the light ball. and 105 ft. with the light hammer.

In the spring of 1898 his greatest rival as a. ball putter the late Charles Madcan. then of F‘ort Wil- liam. wrote to my father sawing lthat he had seen a youngster who

weight competitors then in the fled As these included Donald Ross. Klltarllty: Donald Gillespie.

Islay -, and Madenn himself.

Cameron had something to do, but

Maclean's estimate of Cameron's powers proved correct by the end of the season. when he had beaten lvlaclean by 4 ft. with the heavy atone at Oban. and Gillespieand G l-I Johnsttone with both heavy and light balls at Fort ’Wil1lam. His putt of 3'1 ft. 6 in. with a 22 1-2 lb. stone was probably the best ever done up to that date at Oban. At Inverness in the same season he was beaten by two inches with the light ball by Donald Ross, and failed to get a place with the heavy

‘throw which was winning

ball. although he slightly fouled a.

by a foot.

Ln the season of 1899 he never reached his true form of putting. and had still not begun to be a hammer thrower or caber tosserof

note. but in i900, although still only commencing to show lrn- proved form with hammer and cabcr. he was easily the leading

putter with heavy ball, and second to Charles Maclean with light ball.

"Hwy 590m Records Broken

In that season he smashed the Aboyne record with heavy stone with a putt of 38 ft. 9 in., and dld 38 ft. 2 in at Fort William; 38 ft. B 1-2 in. at Inverness. and 39 ft. 1 in at Aberdeen. His best putt with the light ball was 46 ft. 11 in at Dundee.

In 1901 he started the season by winning the light ball at Galstone Games with 48 ft., b€£ttlng C. Maclean by a foot. although 190i was one of Maclearfs best seasons. He also beat Maclean with the heavy ball a-t Aberfeldy under Benulne conditions with 3'1 ft. 6- 1-2 ln. At the Glasgow Exhibition, Games held that year he won the

iheevv ball with a1 n. 1., in. from iJames iG-lllesple. Morrison

Morrison and Donald was in ex- ceptionally good form that season, and was second with a7 n. 1 in,

Incidentally he is one of the few

athletes who have a, genuine authentic record of over 3a n, with a 22 lb. ball. Up to

Cameron's time no athlete coird claim such a record. yet he did more than two feet better than 38 ft. on many occasions. At Fort William he fltlflin beat lvfaclean with both balls. the distances recorded being 40 ft. with the hetwv and so n. 5 ln. with the light ball. The ground used for the butting at IFort William at. that time was by no means level, Wt the 111N008 W85 exceptional. At Pitlochry he won the light ball with 4a ft. s ln.. and ac. compllshed a wonderful perform- 8110c 8-i- Oban. when he putted the 22 1-2 lb. stone 38 ft. 6 in. 0n 080W smund. but did not com- plete either at Aboyne ar the Northern Meeting that year.

Still Winning

Throughout the season he was easily best with the heavy ball, and still second to Maclean with the l6 1b.. but not of much ac-
