remarkable speed and discernment,
reached quick and firm decisions and
Iimpetuously went straight for the OBJ
ject in view He was fearless and
had but one policy, the square deal.
He met responsibilities with courage
and intelligence His adjustments
were accepted as final and right. He
believed in America for all those,
and only those, who support by
thought and deed her Government, in
situations and honor He fought
hard and never hit soft. He himself
was an example of achievement, the
foremost advocate of play hard while
you play, work hard while you work.
He was ambitious and selfish--for
principle. His diplomacy was cour.
lageous. direct. singe-purposed, just
effective, American. The career of
Theodore Roosevelt furnishes the
best examples of patriotism and
craftsmanship TO guide American
citizens in discharging their duties of
