Change In Presidents Signature

Stress Of business and the dearth OF
time will lead to a change in President
Roosevelts signature, says the Pitts
burg Dispatch. He has always been
accustomed to write out his first name
in full, but he finds that it will save
him about so per cent Of time and
trouble to make it simply T. Roosevelt.
Where a man has to sign his name
about one thousand times a day it
makes a big difference. There is a
man in the office Of the auditor for the
postoftice department at Washington
who, it is said, owes his appointment
largely to the fact that his signature
contains but five letters. He is Second
Deputy Auditor N. Chew. He does
little but sign his name, and he does
that for about eight hours a day
steadily.
