Total, $104.40 not so had, but after
such encouragement from so many and
after the appeals | sent out for volun-
teer contributions, | am greatly disap-
pointed at the lack of response. Less
than 10 responded. | can name them
if desired.
| got out one day last week and
worked hard soliciting, and got up the
above list but | did not want to do
that. Its not any joke to go to every
body. | fear that many do not yet
realize that its the peoples enterprise
and not mine or any individuals. I
admit l conceived the idea and told
You good people If you would give me
the held would need in cash for
material and labor | would give my
time and labor as for as am able and
put the thing over purely as com
munity enterprise. The Fair AssOcia-
tiOn has graeiOusly assigned us a beau
tiful location for it and neither my
self nor any other individual has one
cent i'm it except in public way, and
to demonstrate the advance in pro
gress i'm the past 75 years.
Surely everyone would like to feel
that he has a part in it. The idea is
Just this, in a nut she'll that we all
join and build a memorial building at
the Fairgrounds under my direction
the building now planned in memory
of our fathers, grandfathers and great
grandfathers, who came in an early
day, broke the brush and opened the
way for those that now are enjoying
the hardships and privations of pioneer
life which this log cabin and Its
furnishings will demonstrate to the
sight seers that will attend the Fair
/ do not want to call on you any
more as | feel that it ought to be OF
equal interest to every person alike
that has any public spirit whatever
SO, send in you'd donations or subscrip
tiOns to be paid not later than August
We need not less than $780, and more
If we can get it. to furnish 1t with sucf
/ things as will be needed.
} Friends, do 1t now. Its just as mucf
yours as anybOdy's and you should
feel so about it. l do not want to EN-
I barrass you and myself also by keeping
right after you but | can and will dc
1t II you do not respond. Any and al
can contribute 30 cents or S1.00 Sc
come on and don't wait for the Other
fellow to do Ii all.
feel that the teachers should take
an interest in II as il demonstrates the
progress made the past century. Only
one teacher has responded and this is
along their line of work
If you will respond will not say
any more about il but If you do not
will be after you again.
We are getting things arranged foI
the material and when we get 1t on
tho oround we will have nm old d-faShiOn.
