ROOSEVELT NIGHT.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Tonight is Roosevelt night at the Union. There Harvard men can listen to intimate anecdotes of Harvard's most illustrious graduate from the lips of his associate and biographer, Mr. Thayer. This meeting will bring home the need of the nation today for the man who had the courage to say during a period of a threatened coal strike: "We will mine coal if the whole army has to dig."

In all parts of the country for the past week admirers of Theodore Roosevelt have held meetings as a testimonial of their respect and affection for his memory. From these is to spring a lasting memorial of his great services to the nation. Yale has already raised fifteen hundred dollars. Harvard's quota must surpass this figure. In contributing something, however small, each one of us can have the satisfaction of knowing that he is helping toward a permanent park at Sagamore Hill, the erection of a monument at Washington, and the endowment of "a great educational foundation to keep alive through study and teaching, the great ideals for which President Roosevelt stood."
