CHOSEN TRIBUTE TO IMMORTALS

Dear Motherland, Kentucky, here we bring
The names of these, thy sons, who nobly died;
Who for Thy sake and Freedom's put nside
Young love, and lusty life, and call of spring,
And strode down death's dark ways adventuring.

"For Those Who Gave All"

We cannot bring them back! We emmet give
To their young eyes the joy of sunrise, nor
To eager ears that call they harkened for
The cardinal among the hills of home. They live
But in our hearts and these are fugitive.

We shall go down to dust even as they.
So to thy heart, Kentucky, bring we now

Workers throughout Kentucky will start Monday April 24 to complete
the $300,000 fund for a memorial to Kentucky's heroes of the World War.
The building, which will be erected on the campus of the University of Kentucky, will be an auditorium and students building.
Undergraduates of the University, students of colleges throughout the
State and pupils of the public and private schools will be engaged in a house-thouse canvass, continuing until Saturday evening April 29. The site for
the official State memorial was agreed upon by members of the Kentucky
council of Defense and other representative citizens at a meeting in Louisville in the summer of 1919.
One hundred business men and firms of Lexington are underwriters of
a $100,000 bond issue, passed but held invalid by the Court of Appeals. Others
have made contributions varying from $1 to $1,500, the largest coining from
Gen. T. Coleman du Pont, a former Kentuckian.
Alumni of the University have been called on to contribute or raise by
soliciting $25 each. Letters have been written a group of representative
citizens of every country by James C. Willson, of Louisville, State Chairman,
calling on them to contribute $25 each to start off the drive. School children
also will be active in raising the money as ii patriotic undertaking, the last
of the war drives. This was endorsed by the Kentucky Educational Association, by State Superintendent George Colvin and by local boards of education.
Special exercises will be held, in many of the schools of tho State on the
memorial idea.
This campaign rightly carried on will be of inestimable value to the
said one of the leaders of tho drive. Its success will indicate unto the recent attacks based on
mistakably the reaction of the
the teaching of evolution. This controversy brought many new friends to the
University and it is expected that others will be attracted by the jilan of
commemorating the sacrifice of the 3,050 Kentuckians in tho World War.
Tho American Legion, War Mothers and other patriotic and civic organizations
have endorsed the campaign and are backing it witli enthusiasm ami work.
Two hundred students of the University will go on a canvass of the
down-towdistrict of Lexington and Flying Squadrons will visit nearby
towns during the last two or three days of the drivo. ' In addition there will be
a woman Chairman in each county and a local committee associated with
her.
Almost every college and university in the country has made arrangoments
for some sort of a memorial to its World War heroes. A fund of $1,000,000
was raised for the University of Georgia recently. Ohio State is erecting a
Million Dollar Stadium. At Ames, Iowa, students and faculty subscribed
more than $300,000 in the opening week of the campaign. Alumni of the so
institutions were given a quota of approximately $300 each. In some instances
undergraduates subscribed as much as $500.
The University of Kentucky was granted an appropriation of $290,000
conditions only to
by the General Assembly for partial relief from post-wa- r
lose the entire sum by veto of tho Governor who allowed a similar increase
to the penal and charitable institutions and approximately half a million a
year to apply on the State's floating indebtedness.
This Memorial Building will satisfy in part the University's immediate
needs in addition to commemorating idealism with which this country entered
the war and went on to victory. By its constant reminder to tho youth of the
State of heroic deeds it will mean a great addition to the life of the State.
Only a little more than
of he student body can assemble in tho
present chapel. It is necessary for the freshmen and sophomores to ultornate
for convocation. Upper classmen are allowed one meeting every Jive weeks.
The student body can be brought together only on the athletic field whore
they turn out en masse for the games and generate true college spirit.
When the drive was first started in 1919 a considerable percent of the
undergraduates made contributions ranging from $3 to $75, one class contributing $100 from its general fund. Faculty and many of the alumni have
made contributions varying from one percent to three and a half percout
of a year's salary. A contribution large or small from every undergraduate
and from every alumnus is the aim of the present Campaign Commlttoo.

Lexington Alumni Club Luncheon
The Lexington alumni hold their
regular monthly meeting at the Phoo-niHotel, 12:30, April 8. W. C. Wilson, president of the club was In the
chair and made a plea for a stronger
support of their Alma Mater by the
alumni, urging them to begin work
now to have elected to the 1924 legislature men in sympathy with Kentucky's
need for educational advancement and
a state university comparable to those
of other states. Two years Is not long
enough to accomplish much toward's
the University's good, he said, but by
the constant united effort of the alumni
the result will be felt. In four or six
years.
The relation of the model high
school to the University of Kentucky
and its use as a laboratory for students in the Department of Education,
was explained by Harold P. Fling,
principal of the school. It is yet in
its infancy and sadly crippled on account of lack of funds but is doing
good work. It holds membership In
the Association of High Schools and
Colleges of the South, to which only
about 500 high schools are eligible.
The University saxaphone quartette
furnished the music for the occasion.

Birmingham Alumni Entertain Junior
Engineers
The Birmingham Alumni Club entertained the junior engineers, on an inspection trip of southern industries,
with a banquet at the Southern Club,
April 9, at S p. m. Mr. J. M. Sprague
'07, president of the club, presided and
gave the boys a royal welcome. An old
fashioned southern dinner was served
and a round-tabltalk followed. Short
talks were made by Mr. Sprague, E. J.
Kohn '12, A. B. Haswell '11 and others
of the twelve alumni present.
The
Birmingham alumni want the southern
trip made a regular feature of the
junior inspection trip and they certainly showed their
and interest in entertaining the boys. They
took them in charge on arrival in
Birmingham, had a special train to
visit the different industries and Mr.
13. J. Kohn, Secretary
of the Club,
spent the entire day with them.
The Club is anxious that the Wildcats play their return football game
with Alabama at Birmingham In stead
o Tuskaloosa next fall, and an effort
is being made to carry out this suggestion. The juniors were so delighted
with their treatment and the industrial
plants visited that they, too, are working to have the Birmingham trip become a permanent part of the junior
engineering inspection trip.

The Louisville Alumni Club gave a
banquet to Alumni deligates attending

Seolbach hotel April 12 at 6:00 p. m.
Those attending the banquet pronounce it the greatest occasion of its
kind In the history of the Louisville
club.
Elwood Hamilton, principal speaker
of the evening, said in his talk "I see
500,000 hands raised to us here tonight They are the hands of the
children of Kentucky. They want an
education and the state owes It to

them. They want a great University
and the men and women of Kentucky

the next two years, the uplifting of
tho University.
Professor Enoch Greham, the only
impromptu speaker of the evening, in
keeping with his usual ready way of
speaking gave a speech of well mixed
wit and common hard sense. He said,
as he saw it, we were suffering from
an overdose of veto.
