ut it turned out he meant barn swallows skimming the water. The President not only sent "picture letters" to his own children, but an especial one to Miss Sarah Schuyler Butler, daughter of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, President of Columbia University, who had written to him a little note of congratulation on his first birthday in the White House. White House, Nov. 3d, 1901. DEAR LITTLE MISS SARAH, I liked your birthday note _very_ much; and my children say I should draw you two pictures in return. We have a large blue macaw--Quentin calls him a polly-parrot--who lives in the greenhouse, and is very friendly, but makes queer noises. He eats bread, potatoes, and coffee grains. The children have a very cunning pony. He is a little pet, like a dog, but he plays tricks on them when they ride him. He bucked Ethel over his head the other day. Your father will tell you that these are pictures of the UNPOLISHED STONE PERIOD. Give my love to your mother. Your father's friend, THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
