dent and reveal the strenuous Roosevelt in
a guise not familiar 10 a majority of his
admirers Selecting homely, moral SUBJ

has not greeted the throngs that have well
coined him from day TO day with difficult
political argument, or the oratory tn

called the old truths that enforce honest
living on the part of the individual and the
highest civic courage and virtue on the
part OF the citizen. His speeches and the
manner OF their reception have furnished
