Roosevelt in Africa. A series of 16 cards illustrating Roosevelt's hunting trip. 25 cents. The Cromwell Co.434 Lafayette St., New York With the two thicknesses of canvas separated, the poles taken out and the poles tied securely up into packages, the porters would carry Col. Roosevelt's tent easily on their heads round which they would first wrap their blankets turban-fashion. When camp was broken, Col. Roosevelt's tent was the last one to go down; when camp was pitched it was the first one to go up always with the flag proudly in place by whichever porter had had the coveted honor of carrying it on the march.
