President Mary G. WentZel, gave a
lage bunting flag for the fiagpole, which
was dedicated on Memorial Day. She
also stated that Mr.. William Easterlin
has promised to give land for a boule-
ward to connect the Prison Park with
the cemetery, making deed to the
Government when the transfer is
made. A great many handsome pres
ents have been made to the different
rooms of the cottage at Andersonville
by Massachusetts. Ohio, Wisconsin. In
diana and Minnesota. Six monuments
have been erected inside the stockade
by Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Mich
igan, Ohio, Wisconsin and one by the
w r. c. to LiZabeth y. Turner, Past
National President and Life Chairman
of the Andersonville Prison Board, who
died at Andersonville two years ago.
Mrs. WinanS says:
ITO make and keep our country great
and strong, education must go hand IN
hand with patriotism, and as the Wo-
mans Relief Corps transfers to the
United States Government her sacred
trust of preserving the hallowed spot
where thousands suffered martyrdom
because of their patriotism, what more
fitting use could be made of a part of
the fund set aside for Andersonville
Prison Park than to use it TO encour-
age this grand moral sentiment? The
Memorial University, located in the
geogra phical center of the United
States and dedicated to the veterans
and loyal women of 1S61-65. is only in
its infancy and needs our patriotic and
loving support. We now have the Op-
portunity of helping to build this living
monument to a size as big as the big
gest.'
Mrs. Winans then recommends that
the w. r. c. subscribe $4,000 from the
Andersonvilc Permanent Fund, hold
ing it in trust for the Memorial Uni
Versity al Iowa City, for the beginning
of an Endowment Fund, the amount
TO be determined later, and that the
interest on the fund be paid at the
close of each year to the Memorial
University.
I'VE realize with sadness she said,
that our veterans are fast passing
away, and soon there will be none left
to tell the story of their heroism. The
youthful mind is greatly impressed by
reading accounts of their heroic en-
durance; and in order that the lesson
of sacrifice and devotion to country, as
taught by the suffering Of the prisoners
at Andersonville and other Southern
prisons, may never be forgotten, l Of
