bated whether he should enter Harvard univer.

Roosevelt graduated from Harvard The iron
muscled young Yankee. who was already a
notable crosscountry runner, wanted to enter the
army navy. The spirit of adventure was strong
in him But the wishes of his sober old father pre-
vailed, and, having obtained a scholarship he
entered the Harvard Medical school.
In the third year after he entered the study OF
medicine he won in competitive examination

After leaving the Boston dispensary. the young

Leonard Wood is an adventurer of
the true Elizabethan type. Whether
chasing murderous Apaches through
the mountains, creating a govern
ment In Cuba, or forcing order and
civilization upon the Mohammedan
savages Of Mindanao and Sulu by
armed force, he has always been a
master.

Scotch, Irish and English blood

who died on the Mayfower, through
Peregrine White, the first-born OF

Wood, who was a Plymouth free
holder in 1929. His mothers strain

came from Ireland in 1884 and set
tied at Watertown, Mass, and to that
patriot greatgrandfather, John Nix

Lexington, a regiment at Bunker
Hill. and a brigade at Saratoga.
His father and uncle were country
doctors, the sons of a stout New
England farmer who kept a tavern
and owned much wooded land. His
father served as a private soldier In
