President Roosevelt was constantly moving to and fro. Beth In Boston and in Cam- bridge there were few if any moments for real rest Harvard bospitality was showered upon him during his two dis- tinct visits to the university city dur ing the day, and In Boston his personal friends claimed all his spare time and did all things to make his trip to Mas. sachusetts most enjoyable. The principal event of the day, how- ever, was President Roosevelt's ad- dress to the Harvard studsuts at the unjon founded by Major Henry L. Higginspon, the Boston banker. as an institution which all Harvard men could Join and ss one which would serve In a measure to destroy the so cial barriers which ordinarily divide students in college life. Two thousand Harvard men, mostly undérgraduoates, gathered in the great living room of the union, ind they gave the president & magnificent reception, a geguine and forceful Harvard welcome, so sincere and so hearty that President Roose velit frequently bespoke his apprecia- tion. Only to the extent that the pres ident’s speech at the union had been given out for publication was Pres! g [font Roosevelt's visit bere In any way 9 lot a public character. Mr. Roosevelt sald: “Asn [ emphatically disbelieve In see- ing Harvard or any other college turn out mollycoddles lustead of vigorous men, I may add that I do not in the least object to a sport hecause it is rough. Rowing, baseball, lacrosse, track and field games, hockey, foot- ball, are all of them good. Moreover, it is to my mind simple nonsense, a mere confession of weakness, to desire to abolish a game because tendencies show themselves or practices grow up which prove that the game ought to be reformed. Take football, for In- stance. The preparatory schools are able to keep football clean and to de- velop the right spirit in the players without the slightest necessity ever arising to so much as consider the question of aboMshing it. There is no excuse whatever for/colleges falling to show the same capacity, and there is no real need for considering the question of the abolition of the game, If necessary let the college authorities (aterfere to stop any excess or per- version, making thelr interference as little officlous as possible and yet as rigorous as Is necessary to achieve the end. But there Is no justificaMon for stopplag a thoroughly manly sport because it I= sometimes abused, when the experience of every good prepara- tory school shows that the abuse is ia no shape necessarily attendant upon the game, “We cannot afford to turn oot of college men who shrink from physical effort or from a little physical pain. in any republic courage ia a prime necessity for the average citizen If he Is to be a good citizen, and he needs pliysical courage no less than moral tonrage, the courage that dares as well a8 the courage that endures, the cour- fe that will fight valiantly altke against the foes of the soul and the foes of the body. Athletics are good, especially in thelr rougher forms, be- cause they tend to develop such cour- age. They are good also because they enconmge a true democratic spirit, for in the athletic field the man must be judged not with reference to outside and aceidental attributes, but to that combination of bodily vigor and moral quality which go to make up prowess" Ford Moore Sanitariom Destroyed.
