Theodore Roosevelt makes
no mistake. His philosophy
of life was clean. From a
frail foundation he builded
physique by disciplining
himself. He trained him
self to a capacity for action
that was almost unbelieva-
bic. Roosevelt was a hu-
man encyclopedia. 1t is safe
to say that he knew more
about a broader variety of
subjects than any other liv.
ing American. He knew
men and books, trees and
bugs. He was always learn
ing. He never compromised
with a crook or a liar. He
dominated every gathering
in which he participated
from sheer force of mind.
His record in public life in
sures him a place in the hall
of immortal Americans.
The time for extended
eulogies Of the late Colonel
Roosevelt has passed. He
has been dead for several
months. But the memory Of
Roosevelt is not dead. Every
man and woman and child
who was so proud Of his
militant patriotism in life
should share in the national
memorial fund that is being
