In Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN, there is an Abraham Lincoln Statue with the myth telling rubbing his nose bring you a good luck. Because of the myth, every one visiting might rub his nose until it shines. As I heard, he signed for the foundation of Purdue University, and I am little proud of the fact due to Abraham Lincoln's fame. He is still well-known and popular for his noble presidency and many people dream to be like him.
"ABRAHAM LINCOLN
SIGNER OF THE MORRILL ACT OF 1862
CREATOR THUS OF PURDUE UNIVERSITY

NATIONAL PATRIOTISM AND
