To the Editor of The republican
AS an admirer of the spirit of the
soldiers of Garrett county who went
out from us to fight our battles, and
to attest to the world at large that
the people at home appreciate in the
highest possible degree the great sac
rifices they have made and still stand
ready to make both at home and over
seas, the proposed memorial in their
honor is in my opinion, a most fitting
tribute to their valor, and as citizen
of this great county l urge that ev-
cry man, woman and child give to the
proposition the support it so justly
and rightfully deserves.
At the proper time shall deem it
duty as well as a pleasure to sup
port the movement in more subsan-
tial manner than by words.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Theodore Roosevelt achieved and
enjoyed more worthwhile triumphs
and experienced and survived more
disappointments of the kind that
would crush most humans than did
any other American of prominence.
Therein you find the explanation of
his unbreakable grip upon the people.
il was his strength of character, his
refusal to be spoiled by success or dis
mayed by failure, which commanded
respect and compelled admiration,
giving him a personal following such
as no other ever had in this country
or age.
Since his death on Monday morn
his bitterest and greatest enemies
have given expression to words of ad-
miration for this the greatest Ameri-
can of them all.

PROJECT MEETS
WITH APPROVAL
Continued from page l


sal to erect a memorial to the bows
of Garrett county who entered the
service Of our country to uphold liber-
ty and secure freedom for the world,
and they are entitled to all the honor,
credit and recognition we can bestow
upon them.
Here at home we contributed to
the cause willingly and according to
our ability, but our situation was en-
tirely dissimilar to that of our sons
who faced death every moment they
were in touch with the enemy, and
our other sons who were preparing to
either stand with the boys who first
crossed the sea, or take their places
as they fell in the war, are also enti-
tied to great credit and lasting honor
for the spirit that was theirs to dis
charge their duty to their country.
l feel that we could do nothing that
would attest our appreciation of the
services of the boys more than to
build memorial as proposed. 1t will
be great privilege to aid this under
taking. l shall gladly assist in any
way | can to carry the work through
to a successful issue.

To the Editor of The Republican.
The two most noted and most mo-
mentous days in human affairs and
in the worlds history are the days in
which Christ was born and the 18th
day of November, 1918 We of the
present have lived through the last
of these two ever-memorable DAYS.
For two thousand years the world has
kept in memory the first of these two
great days by embellishing all Chris
tian countries with magnificent cathe-
drals, churches, hospitals and schools
for instance Rheims Cathedral of
late sad memory.
1t seems to me that the idea of a
memorial, as suggested by Mr.. E. H.
Sincell, and approved by so many of
the leading citizens of Garrett county
is most fitting. and l would suggest,
for consideration, building in Oak
land the county seat, however modest
it might have to be, wherein would be
preserved the names. and portraits,
where they could be secured, of all
those entitled to the honor; where
trophies of the war might be pre-
served; where a library might be
maintained. and where all the people
of the county, who have so nobly

The idea that the citizens of our
county should erect suitable memoir
ial to commemorate the loyalty and
patriotism of our native heath and
perpetuate the memory of our splen-
did soldier boys who participated in
the war, is conceived in the right spir-
it, and | sincerely hope may bear
abundant fruit. heartily endorse the
proposition and hope to see the mat
ter assume definite shape and a cred
liable memorial erected that all Gar

time to come and one that will repre-
sent the true sentiment we hold to-
ward our gallant sons who answered
to their country's call in the struggle
for liberty and democracy.

THE SOLDIERS MEMORIAL

In the last issue of The Republican
a goodly number of the people of Gar
rett county voiced their approval of
the project to build memorial to the
the country's service to uphold our
liberty and secure to humanity the
right to enjoy, without molestation or
hindrance, the freedom that has al
ways been ours, and to insure TO the
world the privilege of living under
such form of government as the peo-
pie of any given part thereof might
choose for themselves.
In this issue very considerable
lumber of our people have availed
themselves of the privilege and in
vitation extended to express their
views concerning the movement, and
their letters are of character to
warrant us in saying that the project
has support from all sections of the
county and that the sentiment is uni
versal and co-extensive with the
boundaries of the county that the me-
moril be built. But lit will require
much work to bring the movement to
a successful issue. This work, of ne
cessity, will be purely voluntary and
will be done by all of our people for
the purpose of giving concrete ex-
preston of their appreciation of what
our sons did and as lasting mark of
their love for the boys.
There is no thought anywhere that
any especial credit or honor is due, or
will be claimed by anybody, for their
connection with this work of love for
the boys, but all of our people who
participate in assisting and helping
the cause will be entitled to claim
equal credit with everybody else when
the work is DONE There will be glory
enough for all, when, with our sons,
we meet to dedicate the memorial.
The sad part of that meeting will
be in the realization by some that
their boys made the supreme sacri-
flee and lie buried on now silent hill
side in France, and are not here in
person to participate in the exercises
attending thee dedication, but their
consolation will be in the thought that
their boys died in the cause of human
ity that we are there helping to pre-
serve the record of their, achievements
for all time to come
But organization must be accom-
plished in order to carry on the work
to successful conclusion. Here in
Oakland meeting will be held on the
18th off january to select represen-
tatives, and without further notice or
solicitation, the people throughout the
county should meet on the same day.
