With such an inviting favor and
sweetness that it made one hunger
for more There was only one con-
fectionery firm in New Yor,. that
made such candy (the store has
since been destroyed by fire., but
the Colonel never forgot it, nor did
the Youngsters who knew him ever
forget it. Once he sent a messenger
from Oyster Bay for the express
purpose Of buying in stock of that
particular candy.
Only three times in thirty years
did Colonel Roosevelt miss his Gee
bration at Cove Neck. once when he
was President and detained in
Washington, again when he was out
of The country on hunting expe-
dition, and the last time, 1918, when
he was confined in bed with sciatica.
And on these occasions he was rep
resented by tlasty agent. His son
Archie acted as his fathers repre-
sentative in 1915, and it was a
memorable occasion for him. for it
was here that he attended school as
a boy, with his brother Kermit and
sister Ethel.
1t was peculiar experience for

orations. With solemn, wondering
faces She children trooped in, for
such an event had never occurred
before in the school.
Was Santa Claus really and
truly to answer their letters? The
reply came soon when the Colonel.
Deaming from ear to ear, announced
that he had been delegated by Saint
Nick to act as his emissary. and
began reading from the packages
which crowded the foot of the tree
the names of the various fortunate
recipients. Not one child was dis.
appointed. whether it was in the case
Of a doll fer girl or a drum for
a boy, and with each package were
given also the fattest sacks of candy
that had ever been seen in Oyster
Bay.
And such candy as that was.
1t was candy with a history, too, for
it was the same kind Of candy which
the Colonel used to like best when
he was boy in New York City and
which in consequence he had in
sisted in buying for the children al

Roosevelt. Then the Colonel held
another conference with the teacher,
me- 'e 4 hasty estimate of the cX-
pense in filing the orders, and ar
ranged for trip to New York, for
it was out Of the question to meet the
demands in the village stores. Also.
ne added Of his own accord an al
lowance for candy and oranges and
the proper Christmas trimmings, all
Of which, in his opinion, should ac~
company any healthy Yuletide tree
bearing gifts.
On the morning Of the day before
Christmas the Colonel, accompanied
by Charles Lee, the negro who had
been in his service for years, went
into the woods Of Sycamore Hill and
there chopped down one Of the finest
Of trees This he carried to his
home, where it lay until the time for
removal to the schoolnouse, there to
be decorated by the teacher.
When the much anticipated night
arrived the Colonel was on hand

Of all the "reminiscences Of the
Colonel and the Cove Neck school
which tNe Oyster Bay people are
row telling, none is so human as
the stories which cluster about
Theodore Roosevelt's Christmas pro-
grams. The Colonel always ma. c
much of the Yuletide season. To
him it was a period essentially for
holiday spirit, and he insisted that,
~ far a. Has within his power, this
spirit should be extended to all
about him. Also he was firm ne.
lever in Santa Claus for the young
sters, and The legend Of Tie good
Saint Nick and mis- galloping rem
deer never lost anything N his tell
irg. Thus it befell that thirty wears
ago his sttent;on, among the de-
mands of his busy life, was drawn
to what he considered the Christ
mas opportunities Of the Cove Neck
school.
