From the windows of homes and
stores and Office buildings, and from
the windshields Of thousands of auto
mobiles throughout the state, the like
ness Of Theodore Roosevelt is going
to look out, as a reminder to the peo-
pie Of the nationwide campaign which
during the week of October 20 to 27
will raise fund Of $5,000,000 to pro-
vide suitable memorials to the great
American. Paul H. King, chairman
for Michigan, has announced that
5000 window cards and automobile
stickers have been ordered and viii
be distributed in every community by
the state, county, city and township
organizations which are setting forth
the aims and purposes of the cam
paign. Both cards and stickers win
contain medallion portrait of Mr..
Roosevelt, one of the best likenesses
of the great man in existence, and a
brief sentiment with the dates Of the
intensive campaign.
Col. Charles B. Warren, chairman
Of the executive committee says:
"No state in the union has been
more loyal to Theodore Roosevelt,
living and dead, than Michigan, and
for that reason we look forward to
an especially gratifying result in the
campaign. Michigan's warm regard
for the great man was returned in
kind Roosevelt loved to come to
Michigan, and always the welcome he
received here was such as to impress
upon him the admiration and friend
1iness all the people held for him. Be-
fore he was ever president, Mr..
Roosevelt attracted great crowds in
Michigan. Never did he make trip
here that people did not turn out in
large numbers to do him honor. And
his trips were frequent. He was al
ways glad to depart from the direct
east-and-west route, on his travels
about the country, to accept Detroit
and Michigan invitations. Occasion
ally, too, he made special journeys to
Detroit, as when he came in response
to an Invitation, signed by leading
members of both parties, to talk for
preparedness. Michigan, and by this
mean all her citizens, regardless of
political affiliations, mourns sincere
ly the loss Of beloved countryman
and leader and the state will most as
suredly do more than her share in
