A 000D NEW ROOSEVELT STORY THE STONES WOULD VOTE Stranded ii a Laincb he is Towed to Shore But lot Recog sized by Those Towing Him N. Perry Edmunds, of Philadelphia, is interested in che Long Island Gravel Work's at Norxhport, L. L. aDd tells the following atory : "A launch runs for mail and supplies to Oyster Bay. One day when it was about to return, I - the captain saw a man'in his shirt aleeves standing and (waving a handI kerchief from a small launch and he went alongside and asked what was wanted. Be was informed that the machinery bad broken down and a tow to the gravel works was desired, k This was granted and when the boats were underway, the engineer of the gravel worka launch looked out of the j window of hie engine room and saw the man iu the other launch. Be made - silent but- vigorous efforts to attract the attention of his captain and when he had succeeded said, in a low voice. "I have seen a picture of that man somewhere and he's a big man but I can't remember who he is." The launch and its tow finally reach ed~Ita landing and all Linds went ashore and walked towara the mess house. As tEey approached.^ one of the men em- ► ployed at the works glanced at the visitors and with some excitement about) d, "My God, boys that's the President of the United States" and this was the first, intimation that the crew of the boat had that they had been towing President Theodore Roosevelt, who was accompanied by , his two sons, Theodore, Jr., and Kermit. The party walked into the mess house and the President said, ' ' Well, boys, what are -you doing?" "We are preparing for dinner," they said. "1 am glad to hear it," said the President. "I'll Join you. " i "All right, gUd to have you," said the superintendent. "We'll have a place for you ic the private room in a , minute. " "N" you don't," said Roosevelt, ' "I'm Just as good as you are and I'm going to eat with you right here. ' ' So a place was found for him and he ate the dinner with great enjoyment, chat t mg in a jolly way with the men. After his departure they marked the | spot at which be had sat and have , since placed a bronze star in the floor i to u nich they "point with pride" 1 whe- they have visitors. " Even the ' ston - on the beach would vote for , Roo-) velt here if they could" said one i ot tl.) men recently. j INLAND WATERWAY I .

Why? Their house cram- j - bled or is damp. There are several reasons why concrete cracks add crumbles.
