bad, or indifferent. Clara Barton,
founder OF the American National Red
Cross, and president thereof since 1881.
draws us her Roosevelt in few rapid
strokes in her new book, "A Story OF
the Red Cross" published by ID. Ap.
pletOn q Company. The story Of her
encounter with him In Cuba is worth
relating in her own words:
Early in the day there came to our
imprOvised headquarters an officer ia
khaki uniform showing hard service,
and a bandanna handkerchief hanging
from his hat, to protect the back of his
head, and neck from the fierce rays |
OF the sun.
1T was Colonel Roosevelt, and We
were very glad 10 meet the gallant ,
leader of the Rough Riders After y |
few moments conversation he said:
81 have some sick men with my ,
regiment who refuse to leave II. They
need such teiC9Cies as you have here,
which | am ready 10 pay for out OF my
own pocket. Can bay them from the
| Red CrOgs2
Not for a million dollars Or.
Gardner replied.
"But my men need these things
be said. his tone and face expressing
anxiety 4 think 4 great deal OF my
men. | am proud of them.
And We know they are proud Of
! You, Colonel. But we cant sell Red
Cross supplies answered DR.. Gardner.
Then. how can | get them? |

men,, he said.
Just ask for them, Colonel re.
piled Dr. Gardner.

lighting with bright smile, then
do ask for them.
An right. Colonel; what is your
list?'
Now, Colonel. when will you send
for these supplies? asked Dr.. Gardner
They will be ready any time
Lend me sack and I'll take them
right along. he answered with char.
acteristic decision.
Mrs. Gardner at once looked up q
sack, and when filled II must have held
n good many pounds of supplies. be-
fore we had recovered from our sur.
| prise. the incident was closed by the
future President of the United States
slinging the big sack over his should.
