Let Us Have Intensive
 Work From the Start I1NHE Alabama memorial campaign O opens today and as it is to be of short duration it should be inten- sive from the start.
 Certain it is that every good citizen of Alabama has made up his mind to contribute something to the memorial fund.
 The people subscribed with excep- tional generosity to all money raising causes while the war lasted. They were keyed up to the highest pitch of patriotism and enthusiasm, and both in the matter of giving and Liberty Loan investing and in all manner of activities, including pa rades, they were eager and tireless.
 They feel like taking a rest now land are taking it; but the appeal for the memorial building to be erected at Montgomery in honor of our sol dier heroes should touch every heart, and the giving habit be revived for the time being.
