John St. Loe Strachey was pleased to hear from Andrew Carnegie that President Roosevelt is just as healthy as when he took office. Strachey believes this proves that hard work never hurt anyone, as long as they get enough exercise and sleep. Strachey reports on exercises conducted in his field and near his home by the Irish Guard, and concludes that soldiers are happier when they are worked hard.
