WANAMAKER'S ta of the Good Things That People Now Feel Entitled to Get for Themselves rnam.vvMvw?urv The Story of That Snowy Sunlit Day at Sagamore Hill briefly told in yesterday's news by the gifted daughter of Judge John Stewart, of Pennsylva nia, my lifetime friend, is much more than a piece of fine writing. The piety of Roosevelt's patriotism and citi zenship still lives, and Mt. Vernon, Va., Springfield, 111., Sagamore Hill, N. Y., henceforth arc inseparably linked together to , bear witness of something in the lives of three great Presidents that could not be buried in a tomb. It is unmistakably clear that it was left for the events of the passing week to bring to the sur face the hidden power Roosevelt exerted upon the public mind. His robust manliness, extraordinary brain and f arsighted vision, all filled with Americanism of the purest type, turned the eyes of the entire world upon him asonc to help to build something better than an Empire.
