Show Making Political Hay A delegation from Kansas, calling call-ing upon Theodore Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, was met by the President Pres-ident with coat and collar off. "Ah, gentlemen," he said, mopping his brow, "I'm delighted to see you, but I'm very busy putting in my hay just now. Come down to the barn and we'll talk things over while I work." When they reached the barn, there was no hay waiting to be thrown into the mow. "James!" shouted the President to his hired man In the loft. "Where's that hay?" "I'm sorry, sir," admitted James, "but I just aint had time to throw it back since you forked it up for yesterday's delegation." |
