Theodore Roosevelt writes E. A. Pilgram, editor of The Reveille, that he cannot give opinions on institutions when he is not personally acquainted with their work. Roosevelt wishes well to organizations that help “our boys to be better citizens in the time of peace and to be ready to be good soldiers if ever the need should arise.”
