children yesterday in the Children's
Aid society's school in Sullivan street,
where he went by special invitation,
in company with Jacob A. Riis. only
nine Of the 3i5 children in this school
were born in America, but they all
know about Colonel Roosevelt and
wanted to see him. SO one of the little
boys wrote the colonel a letter and
asked him to come to the school. No
name was signed to the letter, but
Colonel Roosevelt accepted at once.
The children sang for Colonel Roose-
welt and went through the flag drill,
and then the colonel told them about
his regiment. The bugler he said, was
an Italian, and was 50 brave that after
he had the fingers of his hand shot
away, so that he could not bugle any
more, he had spent the rest of the day
carrying the wounded from the field.
The brave Colonel Roosevelt said,
were always good and tender In con-
clusion the colonel eXhorted them to
be good, clean and ready to fight If

count of themselves; to be tender and
kind to their mothers and sisters, and
some day he might take them into his
regiment.
The children gave the colonel three

Now that the grip is again epidemic
it behooves every one to keep the
body warm and especially the feet.
While the present attack is reported
not as virulent as that of eight years
ago, it leaves the system notably sus-
ceptible to pneumonia. Its most pro-
nounced symptom is said to be eX-
treme weakness, and physicians ad-
wise against fighting it off but to stay
at home and get under treatment as
quickly as possible. 1t is so wide
spread that its advent here may be
looked for at any time. The Health
Board of New York has ordered the
street cars all TO be thorougly cleaned
and fumigated at once and the street
department is putting forth extra
efforts TO clean the streets thoroughly
in an effort to check the spread OF
the disease,
