Pinchot Studied Roosevelt.
Mr.. Pinchot was anxious to explain Just
why he considered himself an authority or
the colonel's habits. and Attorney Pound
accordingly framed the proper question.
The former chief forester then explained
that he was student of efficiency and
that. finding Col. Roosevelt TO be a sam
pie OF that quality, studied him to dis
cover whence 1t came. To this purpose
he observed the colonel's eating habits,
what he drank, how and what he read
how he exercised, how he transacted busi-
ness: In short. every detail which might
further the study. He felt qualified
therefore, to declare that the plaintiff
