On Board the "Amberjack II"
Marion, Mass.
Dear Mr. Roosevelt:
Knowing of your personal interest in the Navy
of our Country, and having had the advantage of reading an arti-
cle by you, in the New York Evening Post, Dec. 28, 1914, which gave
me much valuable information, I am taking the liberty of asking your
acceptance of a book, written by myself, entitled, "A Son of Old
Ironsides", which I am sending you by parcel-post, to the same ad-

dress. I hope you may find time during your cruise to look into
its pages, for while it is intended primarily for boys of yonger
age than you; as our mutual friend, Admiral Philip Andrews said,
it is "Just the book for a live boy, old or young".
Admiral Andrews has told me of the lively interest and effic-
ient aid you gave to the "Save Old Ironsides" campaign, which was
x200-A
much appreciated by him. Probably he has told you that, already.
It is very gratifying to know of the great interest the people
of the Pacific coast are taking in the frigate, as she visits along
from port to port, Commander Gulliver has written me of the inspira-
tion he gets from the attitude of the visitors, who seem to worship
the splendid vessel. I was able to watch the progress of restoration,
and I know what a remarkable work Lieut. (now Mayor of Bath, Me.)
John A. Lord did in reincarnating all the history and tradition in
the present restoration.
So I hope the book I am asking you to read, will be another tie
between you and the Nestor of our Navy, and help to keep herdoing her
patriotic duty.
May the voyage of the "Amberjack II" be very beneficial to you,
in every way.
Very respectfully
John Stuart Barrows.

June 30th., 1933.
Mr. Stephen T. Early,
Secretary to the President,
Washington, D. C.
Dear sir:
Reaction from sudden changes of temperature as experienced
in artificially cooled buildings, are often enervating in the extreme,
more especially, when one is an "out-door enthusiast" as reports of
the President indicate, and only a mentally and physically healthy
man can hope for a successful consumation of the various projects
President Roosevelt has inaugerated.
To assist him in retaining his health and vitality; I am
mailing (under separate cover addressed to the Chief Steward) a de-
vice for the President's use which will assure him rest, comfort and
rejuvenation during his period of sleep, without the danger of catch-
ing "colds" in any normal summer or winter temperatures. This type of
the device is portable and compact and can, with minor attachments, be
adjusted to any bed or berth in less than one minute.
It was my desire to have this device manufactured from the
finest materials but circumstances necessitated the use of materials
available here. Do not be deceived by its simplicity however; Should
it be necessary to avoid transgression of aesthetic tastes; You are
authorized to have one made of materials and colors to contrast with
the President's bed. Instructions, are with the device and the Chief
Steward has been requested to inform you of its arrival.
Should there be any question of my integrity; You can have
me investigated by anyone you are in touch with here. I have few
political, but excellent fraternal affiliations. Am also a Spanish-
American War Veteran and an observer of men and things. I have come
to the conclusion in my last analysis that the President is, above all,
a dynamic statesman. Years ago; Ella Wheeler Wilcox must have had
President "Achievement". Roosevelt's type in mind when she wrote that poetic verse
Thanks! for your time. My compliments to the President; I
hope he proves a successful "Skipper" for this old U.S.A., fore-and-
aft. "Thar's breakers! ahed".

THE REJUVENATOR.
INSTRUCTIONS
1st., In making bed, the sheets should lap two inches at head and tuck
under at foot and sides, especially top sheet.
2nd., If solid head and foot boards, use rubber-covered clamps; If open
head and foot boards; Attach main strap direct. Snap at the head
and buckle at the foot. Strap should be about twenty inches
above the counterpain at "center".
3rd.,
Hold hanger by sharpened hook underneath the strap at "center"
and allow it to drop(after removing counterpain) note spot where
center of hanger rests, and (standing at right of bed) place
first two fingers of right hand on"spot" - Grasp hanger firmly
in left hand (sharpened hook, slide it under all of the cover
ing including top sheet, and pierce the covering with the sharp-
ened hook using the two fingers of the right hand to work the
hook through all the covering - Should you find it difficult;
give the hanger a lateral motion. Cotton comforts only, are hard
to penetrate.
4th.,
Raise the hanger and engage same in the double holes of the
flexible leather strap viz: Up through the nearest hole and down
through the opposite hole. To prevent accidents: place rubber
protector over point of hook.
5th., If temperature is high: Flip all top covers (one corner at a
time) up on the strap, leaving only the sheet in (tent-like)
position. leave all covering tucked under the mattress at the
foot. Should the temperature lower during the night, the oc-
cupant of the bed can reach up and pull down sufficient cover-
ing for comfort. Should the temperature be low at first, leave
all of the covering in a tent-like position. The body will fur-
nish sufficient heat, for comfort, in a short time.
6th., In the morning after a perfect night's sleep, flip all of the
covering up ont the strap and allow the bed to "air" when it
has aired sufficiently: remove protector and disengage the shar-
pened hook and allow colthing to drop in place - Smooth the bed-
clothing without removing the hanger - the clothing has not been
disturbed during the night and it will not be necessary to re-
move it to make the bed. If bulge of hanger-hook shows after the
counterpane has been replaced - Drop a fancy pillow on it. The
Strap can be removed during the day if necessary, but keep it
handy, as, one having tasted its comforts and benefits, you will
not easily dispense with it.
7th., If the bed-sheets are changed daily, of course it will be neces-
sary to remove the hanger each morning, but I have found that
with this device, and hours airing each morning, the sheets can
be used a week or more without the slightest trace of B.O. in
them, where light pajamas are used.
With minor attachments this device can be attached to any bed or
berth and continued use leaves lasting results in health and vitality.
If the sleeer desires to have the bed-clothing touch his back;
loosen from one side of the bed, leaving it tucked under at the foot.
Al Borland,
Inventor.

A NEW BED COVER SUPPORT
Fig
The figures at the left show a new and improved support
for bed clothes whereby it is possible to remove the weight of
the clothes covering a sleeper while at the same time preserving
the warmth secured by such clothes.
It is well known that the health of a person is dependant
upon the skin of the person receiving fresh air since the skin it-
self to a considerable extent serves also as a respiratory organ.
ig.5.
It is essential for the proper health of the person that the skin
be exposed to fresh air and by my invention it is possible to pro-
vide ample fresh air for the skin while a person is asleep and at
the same time to keep such person warm.
In Figure 2 of the drawings at the left it will be noted
that a strap 8 passes over the head and the foot rest of the bed.
Depending from the strap 8 at the center thereof is supporting mem-
ber 4 which can be passed through a button hole 2 shown in Figure 6
provided in the bed clothes. The supporting member 4 can be posi-
tioned at different places along the strap 8 as shown by the aper-
tures 6 in Figure 3.
In Figure 1 an additional supporting means is provided
which is however not usually necessary and this consists of the
hook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13.
However the essentials of my invention are shown in
Figure 2 and the hook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13 shown in Figure 1
are not necessary to a proper functioning of the invention.
This device can be easily carried in a suit case or hand
bag and can be attached to any bed in less than one minute of time.
The occupant of the bed will be fully covered but at the same time
the occupant is exposed to a large amount of fresh air which
incontinally
under the covers. This is exceedingly important since a
person when sleeping under bed clothes supported as shown will arise
in the morning refreshed and rejuvenated and will not arise in a
tired condition from supporting the heavy weight of bed clothes and
because of having the skin of the body closed in so that it cannot
breath.
The device shown in fully covered bv Letters Patent.

My dear Mr.President:-
I have the audacity, and the honor, to present
herewith to you, Mr.President, a plaque, the model of which
I just finished, and I hope that you will accept this plaque
as a small token of my admiration and my enthusiasm, for you
and your work.
Although many of my friends and associates have
voiced their praise and congratulated me, in regard to the
likeness of face and profile, and the fidelity of your
features, in this plaque, it would, naturally, make me far
more happy if I could have my work judged by you, Mr.President,
and by Mrs. Roosevelt.
I would, therefor, immensely appreciate, and highly
value your unbiased opinion, and a candid expression of your
criticism or, if possible, approval.
With my sincerest wishes for an uninterrupted
continuance of your signal successes in the interests of our
beloved country, I remain, Mr. President,
Yours faithfully

My dear Mr. President:
Out of most profound respect, I am sending
you by today's prepaid express a case of our beer.
It is an offering the smallness of which
does not fittingly represent my great esteem for you.
Yet it is an integral part of me in that it is my
contribution to individual liberty so ably championed by
you, and therefore, it is more than beer and more than
anything short of my love for one who has done so much
to lead distressed humanity out of the wilderness of the
sophistries of the last few years.
Please accept it as a message of admiration
from out of the Rockies where everyone sings your
praises, and hopes the years will bring ever increasing

I thought it might please His Excellency to receive a carton
of Utah beer from the home state of his great Secretary of War.
I hope the beer reached its destination in good order and was
acceptable.
About 4 or 5 days ago, I think, the young man
who calls for our mail reported that he believed he had
gotten a letter addressed to me from the White House out of
our mail box. However, on the way to our office he lost the
letter, and, of course, I have not seen it or read its

I think you are the bravest man in the United States

August 22nd addressed to Honorable William

Since the beginning of the Administra-

energy of the President for his important
official duties, it has been the custom for
Mr. McIntyre or myself to accept all gifts,
petitions, etc., acting on the President's
behalf in this respect.
I would suggest, if this is satisfactory
to you, that presentation of the box of
oysters be made following the President's re-
turn to Washington on Labor Day. Either Mr.
MoIntyre or myself will be very glad to suit
your convenience with respect to time.

Dear Mr. Early:
I enclose herewith copy of a letter
received at this Department from Howard W. Beach,
President of the Oyster Growers and Dealers
Association of North America, Inc.
The connection of this request with
this Department is simply that we have supervision
over the New York State shellfish industry. I
will be glad if the President can accede to Mr. Beach's
request that he receive the first box of oysters
from the 1933 harvest from his own State.
It also occurs to me that there would
be an opportunity for interesting publicity if the
presentation were made on August 31, when the Astor
yacht was about to set sail or, perhaps even better,
at some point en route the next day.
Incidentally, the President and
Mr. Astor might not mind having a box of fresh
oysters in the cargo on the trip.
I am leaving the Department tomorrow
but have asked Mr. William C. Adams, Chief of the
Division of Fish and Game, to get in touch with
you in regard to this matter on the telephone
tomorrow morning.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Mr. Adams:
Last year on September 1, as you know,
we presented to President Hoover a box of oysters,
the first from the 1932 harvest. This was in line
with the age-old custom which is carried out at
Colchester, England, where the season is always
opened by the Lord Mayor and followed by a banquet
at which many notables are present. We would like
to continue the custom which was started last year
until it becomes a White House tradidion for the
President to formally open the oyster season by ac-
cepting a box of the first catch.
Beginning September 1, twenty-five to
thirty-five thousand people go back to work har-
vesting and packing oysters. The Association have
planned to make a presentation to President Roosevelt
on September 1, but we now learn that he is to leave
Hyde Park on August 31 to go on a yachting trip
with Vincent Astor until September 4. I have been
a long way getting to my subject. At a conference
attended by Dr. Pease and myself, with Mr. Raye this
morning, during which we planned a cruise on Long
Island Sound, starting from Connecticut, for a group
of press people, to go over the grounds on the 31st
SO that a flood of excellent publicity will be due to
appear the next day, I brought up the difficulty
of our reaching President Roosevelt at this time.
Mr. Raye suggested that we turn to you to see if it
can be arranged for Henry Morganthau to present
to the President on August 31, before he leaves for
his yachting trip, a box of oysters, the first
gathered from the 1933 harvest. This should be done
in the name of the Oyster Growers & Dealers Association
of North America, (whose code as you know has been
submitted to Washington), and would be a great pu-
blicity stunt for the President and especially for
the industry, in announcing to the public at large
the opening of the season. If it would be more con-
venient for President Roosevelt, of course the pre-
sentation might be arranged to occur on Sentember 1,
either just before he went aboard the yacht or ac-
tually on board. The act on the part of the President
would be greatly appreciated, and I would like your
speedy suggestion as to how to go about it. As the time
is short, I would appreciate a swift reply to me at
610 Quinnipiac Avenue, New Haven, Connecticut. I am
writing this from Dr. Pease's office to save time.
With kindest regards and hopes that you
will have a concrete suggestion and can aid us in
this matter, I am
