MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
One hundred and twenty-five dol

One hundred and twenty-five dol
lars to date is the sum total which
Morrow county people have given to
the Roosevelt Memorial Fund. Our
quota is only three hundred dollars.
And yet, after Tagging weeks be-
hind every other county in the state,
Morrow has raised but a little more
than a third OF what she has been
asked TO contribute.
Six cents from every man, woman
and child in the county would put US
over the top. This is not drive. 1t
is an opportunity.
1t is an opportunity for our people
to show proper appreciation of one
Of our greatest Americans, 1t is an
opportunity TO give to fund which
will build a lasting memorial to a
worthy citizen. Theodore Roose-
welt needs no eulogy, and far be it
from us to attempt eulogy. Neither
is it necessary to build monuments
to keep alive the spirit Of American
ism which he so ably aroused.
II is but a splendid tribute to the
greatness Of the man; an apprecia-
ton shown in this manner by every
one worthy Of being called an Amer
ican.
Surely Morrow county will not fall
down. Whether we raise our quota
or whether we fail, the object of the
fund will be accomplished just the
same.
Will we be able to say that we had
one opportunity to pay lasting trib-
ute to the memory OF great man,
and took it?
