In commemoratiun of Roosevelt's s birthday and as fitting close to the Roosevelt Memorial campaign there will be a mass meeting, to which all are invited, at the Phoenix Union High school at S:30 o'clock Monday evening. Monday has been designated through out the United States as Roosevelt day, when everybody who has not already subscribed and thereby become a member in the Roosevelt Memorial association is asked to do so, volun- teering his or her subscription by sending it direct to county headquar- ters, 604 North Third avenue.
 The feature of yesterdays collec- tions was a bag of money, from pen nies up, turned over to Capt. J. L. B. Alexander, the county chairman, by Superintendent J. D. Loper of the Phoenix public schools. In the bag was $206.36, with the Capitol school yet to report The high school was not included. This money came from the grammar schools, and was gath- cred on straight basis of volunteer subscriptions. Superintendent Loper explaining that the object of the Roosevelt Memorial was presented to the children by their teachers and that then the matter was left to them. The amount each of them subscribed was determined by themselves, their own minds dictatfng the sum. In the bag were many pennies, nickels and dimes with a generous proportion of larger currency.
 With Washington and Lincoln
 The United States Indian school held a meeting last night. It was addressed by R. E. l.. Shepherd, Spanish Amer ican war veteran and one of the lead ing attorneys of Phoenix. MT. Shep- herd spoke principally upon the char acter of Roosevelt, showing what he was by nature and what he made oi his life by his own efforts.
 He said that Roosevelt was one oi the three greatest Americans, namely Washington, Lincoln and himself. '1t appears" he said, that his home life was absolutely pure and he lived the same standard himself that he expect ed of his wife. His only conquerers were grief and death. The first was when he lost his wife and mother with. in few days of each other, when hs retired to a ranch in the wilderness; and the second time when he lost his son, Kermit, in France, which un. doubtedly caused his death"
 MT. Shepherd closed his address witt positions filled by Roosevelt and hi. fearless action in each. He was tn, first politician" he said, "who eve proved conclusively to the youth o America that honesty is the best pol isy' even in politics"
 MT. Shepehrd closed his address witt the statement that America has no produced and probably never vii produce a greater character thai Roosevelt. Born in community sur rounded by vice he was it's greates enemy. Washington gave to us
 country. Lincoln a free country, bu Roosevelt gave us an American na | tion."
 Several of the clergymen will mak reference to Roosevelt and the me morial campaign in the church service today. The Phoenix Y. M c. A, vi hold a special Roosevelt MemoG
