Sam. "Cotton? Steel? Copper"
"Not exactly" replied Bill. "Did
you read today's paper?"
"Yes-but I didn't see anything
in it about Investments" said Sam.
"Didn't you read the war news?'

great news about the French and
Americans rolling up the German
lines?" Didn't you read about the
great number of prisoners and guns
captured as well as territory recov,

H ROOSEVELT'S.

When Theodore Roosevelt was not
allowed the privilege of going to
France, he did the next best thing
possible for him to do. He gave his
four sons to the cause for which we
are fighting. They went not as the
commanders of armies, or holding
commissions which kept them far
from danger. But they took their
places along with the other Ameri-
can boys, and have been at the
front where the bullets have been
the thickest and the fighting the
hardest. They have claimed no spe-
cial privileges. They have showed
their American citizenship by doing
a soldiers duty along with the humb-
lest of those who have gone to the
front? One of them has been dec
GRATED for gallantry. Two lie in
hospitals recovering from wounds
received when they led the way in
to the thickest of the fight. The
youngest son sleeps behind the Ger
man lines in the grave of a hero.
In the greatest of struggles the
Roosevelts have played the part of
true Americans.
>Harpers War Weekly says of
them: "America contains today no
household more worthy to be an
example and an inspiration to ev-
cry other in the land than that at
