To the Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Sir,-Recently J have noted several
letters in this column on General Lee.
Several OF the correspondents seem
70 lack a knowledge of Northe<n SEN
t!mcnt in regard 20 Lee. We all know
Lees statue has been accepted for
Statuary Hall (Washington) and he is
among the immortals In the Hall OF
Fame (New York;.
Several years ago an important ele-
mcntarE school in this city was named
in honor Of General Robert Il. Lee.
So they OF the North also appreciate
the character of this noble hero.
Recently tOctohcr) the first monu
ment erected to Confederate dead by
the United states government was I'M
yelled in this city. And interest was
shown by NIL the citizens and tho
local G. y. r. In a very laudablo way.
In fact. many of the people UP here
consider. with us OF the South, Lee

To tho Editor of The Times Dispatch:
Sir.-A recent communication
through tina press brought the remcm-
hrance OF the old -tlnc school to the
fore. and the rendering made the con
trast in those schools Of thirty years
ago and these of today more apprc-
ciaDle
Now there scans to be an inherent
tendency In most OF us TO give pref
crcnce TO the orders OF our own days,
those in which we were active partic-
ipurts, rather than 10 others In which
VIC hava ceased TO be factors. and this
IS the reason why we ''mosshaclss" re-
Vert with pride TO the schools of yore,
