City Is Making Substan-
SEDCWICK CO(JN-
TY TO RAISE $3.50
FOR MEMORIAL

Sedgwick county has been asked BY
the Roosevelt Memorial Association,
with headquarters at Madison Ave
nue., New York City, to subscribe
$3.50 90 to the S5,OOO,OOO fund being
raised for the national memorial to
Theodore Roosevelt. Jacob Frickel.
Jr. Of this city has been appointed
chairman for Sedgwick county. Mr..
Frickel informs us that the quota
for this county will be raised between
October Goth and 9th. and that dis
trict chairmen have been appointed
in the various parts Of the county.
Theodore Roosevelt, that true
American and patriot, was the twen-
ty-sixth president Of the United
States. He died January 6. 1919. In
the memory of Theodore Roosevelt
the American people have an asset
whose potency for good no man can
vet attempt to measure. His courage
his honesty. his candor, his readiness
to face facts, his unstained manhood,
his gentleness, his deep sympathy, hsi
wide humanity, all that made the
loftincss and strength and magic OF
Theodore Roosevelt, heritage on
which Americans for all time to come
will live and feed and grow strong.
No national memorial is needed to
honor the man who has left such a
heritage to his fellowmen. That
heritage is itself his memorial. How
ever, we build our monuments OF
granite and bronze only in order that
men may be reminded, day in and day
out. Of the spiritual heritage which
is theirs.
DEDICATION ,
He was found faithful over few
things and he was made ruler over
many; he cut his own trail clean and
straight and millions followed him
toward the light. He was frail. he
made himself tower of strength
He was timid; he made himself a
| lion of courage. He was dreamer;
he became one of the great doers
Of all time. Men put their trust in
him; women found a champion In
him: kings stood in awe of him, but
children made him their playmate
He broke a nations slumber with his
cry, and it rose up. He touched tht
eyes of blind men with flame thai
gave them vision. Souls became
swords through him; swords became
servants of God. He was loyal to hi
country and he exacted loyalty; h
loved many lands. but he loved hi
own land best. He was terrible ii
battle, but tender to the weak; JOY
GUS and tireless. being free from self
pity; clean with cleanness tina
cleansed the air like gale. Hi
courtesy knew no wealth, no class
his friendship, no creed or color o
race. His courage stood every on
slaught of savage beast and ruthels
man. Of loneliness, of victory, of de
feat. His mind. vas eager, his hear
was true. his body and spirit, defian
of obstacles, ready to meet what Nigh
come. He fought injustice and ty
ranny; bore sorrow gallantly; love
all nature, bleak spaces and hard
companions, hazardous adventure an
the zest Of battle. Wherever he wen
he carried his own pack; and in tn
uttermost parts Of the earth he KEEP
his conscience for his guide.
