FEDERATIoN ASKS AID OF
PUBLIC FOR SCHOLARSHIP FUND
The Federation Of Parent Teacher as
sociations wishes again to remind the
public that Saturday Is newspaper and
magazine day-a day when this big or
ganization will realize a sufficient sum
from the sale Of the papers to establish
a scholarship fund for worthy Memphis
boys and girls to prepare themselves to
be self sustaining substantial citizens
by continuing school, either at Central
high or a business college.
This latter feature of the privilege OF
the scholarship. a business course, has
just been mapped out and arrange
ments made for student in this line
Of study with a local Institution.
AZ a glance one can conceive OF the
value Of such movement in the edu-
cational forces OF the city. II is .
strong incentive to students with no
bright prospects for being equipped for
a better station in life to make the
best Of their time and opportunities
during grammar school years. The num-
Der OF students securing this advantage
in the future win OF course be gov
erned by the amount of the fund Sc
cured and maintained for the purpose.
So Saturday the fund starts. The CO.
operation Of every housekeeper will give
a great impetus TO the movement.
Help the cause by giving little of
your time between now and Saturday
In collecting the papers and the good
you will do may not be measured alone
by dollars and cents

little more talk from genial Mr..
Gooding, whom everybody, old and

the story of his life, together with his
army and prison experience reads
briefly somewhat as follows:
Zephaniah w. Gooding was born on
September IL, 1910, at Bristol, N. X.
His parents were farmers and he re-.
manned on the farm until he was Fl
years old, when the Civil war broke
out and he, hearing the call to duty,
enlisted in the service of the nation,
at Canandiagua, N. Y, ON October q,
1861. He was Immediately sent with
lot of other young fellows who had
enlisted, to Elmira, which place was
called a rendezvous-today you would
call it q cantonement-and here they
were drilled until December. At this
place they had clean comfortable
quarters and army life presented none
of the hardships which were to unfold
themselves within the next few
months.
