During the Red Cross campaign in
Cuba an officer appeared one day at the
society's headquarters. and learned
there an interesting fact about the
working of the relief corps. Miss
Clara Barton tells the story in her
recent book on the Red Cross. She
says:
The officer was in khaki uniform,
showing hard service and a bandanna
handkerchief, hanging from his hat,
protected the back of his head from
the sun. 1t was Colonel Roosevelt.
81 have some sick men, said he,
"who refuse to leave the regiment.
They need such delicacies as you have
here, and | am ready to pay for them

mot for a million dollars" was the
answer.
"But my men need these things. l
think a great deal of my men. l am
proud of them"
And they are proud of you. colonel.
But we can't sell Red Cross supplies"
''Then how can l get them? 1 must
have proper food for my sick men,"
"Just ask for them, colonel"
A bright smile lighted his face.
"Oh," said he, then l do ask for
them"
"All right, colonel. What is your
list?'
The list included matted milk, con-
densed milk, oatmeal, cornmeal canned
fruits, dried fruits, rice, tea, chocolate,
prepared beefsteak and vegetables.
Lend me a sack" said the colonel,
land I'll take them right along"
Then the future President slung the
heavy sack over his shoulder, and
strobe off out of sight through the
jungle.-Youth's Companion.
