They are credited with being songs witn tne same "touch and go" that made and have alwavs made "I Love a Lassie" and ""She's Ma Daisy" exceptionally popular. As In -other seasons. Sir Harrr will have associated with him a company or ciever imported and American en tertainers.

A familiar figure too In the White House then waa Anna Eleanor Roose velt, the daughter of his godfather, Elliott Roosovelt, and a favorite niece of President Theodore Roosevelt. On St. Patrick's day, in 1805, the presl dent saw them married In New York. In the month that Wood row Wilson was Inaugurated, he made Franklin Roosevelt his assistant secretary of the navy, with his youthful vigor, Roosevelt carried to that office his Interest in things of the sea.
