 ADDS TRIBUTE

Continued from Page One. Column seven.l saying that he sought "only place to earn honest bread while engaged III some useful work.
 This statement brought him the oner of the presidency of Washington Col leee, a little institution in Lexington. Va. which had grown out of a modest foundation known as Liberty Hall Academy. Washington had endowed this academy with one hundred shares of stock that had been given him by the state of Virginia, which he had ac- cepted only on condition that he might with them endow some educational in- Rtitution To the instltution which Washington helped to found in such spirit, Lee, In the same fine spirit, gave his services. He accepted the position of president at @ salary of $1,5OO year, in order, as he stated, that he might do some good to the youth of the South. He applied himself to his new work with the same singleness of mind which he showed in leading the Army or Northern Virginia. All the time, by word and deed, he was striving for the restoration of real peace, of real har- mony, never uttering word or oIt- terness nor allowing word of bitter ness uttered in his presence to go un- checked. From the close of the war to inc time of his death all his great pow CTS were devoted to two objects: to the reconciliation of all his countrymen with one another, and to fitting the youth of the South for the duties of lofty and broadminded citizenship.
 Such is the career that you gather to homer; and I hope that you will take advantage of the one hundredth an- niversary of General Lees birth by ap. pealing to all our people, In every sec- tion of this country, to commemorate his life and deeds by the establishment, at some representative educational instt. tuition of the South, of a permanent memorial, that will serve the youth or inc coming years, as he, in the closing wears of his life, served those who SD sorely needed what he so freely gave
 Sincerely yours,
 Theodore Roosevelt.
