»lic of — At the annual meeting of the Alumni Asocia· ·'
n the  ` THE ALUMNUS AND tion it was suggested that the Kentucky Kernel, Q

active · that the Kernel contain each week an Alumni column in order to acquaint ‘

Je stu-   It is carefully edited and in every way worthy of thepatronage of the  
nu and ` Aglumni, even if it had no special column for Alumni news. Circulation ot i`
e Ken-   the Kentucky Kernel among Alumni would also elminate the necessity of

            THE KENTUCKY MEMORIAL BUILDING \ ?
  I        i E In the great struggle in Europe for human liberty and the regnaney ` ti
       t i { of democracy throughout the world, now happily brought to a success  i
  -       1 ful end, Kentucky gave 2,758 of her sons and daughters that autocraey  i il
  j       { might not again menace the race.  g “
  _-‘A   i  r   The 1`€C0l'd of Kentucky’s part in that sublime struggle adds a luminous E D
        H   page to the history of the Commonwealth, and establishes a lasting new { if
  U   il l   covenant of pride in the inrmortal dead of all nations, that participated iu _ S
  I Q_   g it. At the same time, it redeems the promise, so solemnly made by the .
    Qj     l free peoples of the allied cause, that henceforth the world should be a better Vg H
      E F ;   place in which to live.  i 9
  _'       When the call to arms came, no university in the country responded p L
‘ {if U       more readily than did the University of Kentucky, and of all her sons  i 9
  ;         and daughters, none served more loyally than did her alumni. When. H 
  » ;_   ~    therefore, in the early spring of 1919, leading citizens of her State iu- °g  d
_     I`? . , augurated a movement to erect a memorial to Kentuckians, both men aud  . il
       Q  i women, who lost their lives in the European war, and decided that that  `

1 p     i,    its grounds, the alumni of the institution were among the first to ap-  
V 3     I prove the movement and pledge support in its successful promotion.  p E
  I or   t In its annual meeting June 17, 1919, after a thorough discussion of the _ X
  _     E. plan to raise funds by popular subscription to erect the proposed build   rr
  i _       ing, the alumni adopted the following resolution: · M
  _   yy       "WHEREAS, patriotic citizens of the Commonwealth, have inaugurated   R
t   . ·-gg     .    er movement to procure by popular subscription, $300,000 with which to erccl  . M

~   p      I   "VVHEREAS, we see in such a movement opportunity to assist inaterially, E L
  r -1   Q not only in doing inerited homage to the State’s heroic dead, but at the e J,
  -   Q p; same time to establish on the grounds of the State’s chief institution of  , T
  ` `     y learning, a building that may be used for the betterment of physical aud  E _]_
    W  I educational conditions surrounding young men and women of Kentucky who · M
fig `.__ ·'     . shall henceforth seek education there; now, therefore ‘ J,
  _ ip   ’; ‘ "BE IT RESOLVED, that the Alumni Association of the University of 3
  _     Kentucky does hereby heartily approve the project and pledge its membe1‘S Q J,
  ` ._     to assist, to the limit of their ability, the noble plan here outlined."   G
      Altho when the project was started, the session of 1918-1919 was within  Q E
      two weeks of its close, alumni of former classes and p1·ospective alumni Q R
      of the class of 1919, set vigorously to work and raised among their num- i L

ber and among the faculty and students of the University, upwards of i V L
 L $9,000 as a. nucleus of the fund and as an evidence of hearty co—operation. l
That campaign as yet is incomplete, but alumni and other promoters .
» are confident of increasing upon the campus of the University alone, the Q
, fund to such proportions as will give the institution impressive representa- ‘
gnancY tion in the great enterprise. _
¤G0eSS— ‘ Plans of the proposed building are as yet incomplete, but brieiiy speak-
teeraey ing, it is to be modern in every respect, ample to meet the demands for  
which it is being designed; is to contain in its rotunda, tablets bearing the .
111iI10US ‘ names of every Kentuckian who lost his or her life in the allied cause and ° .
lg HBW Q is to be erected on grounds donated foi· its site by the trustees o·f the in· T V
ated iu stitution. {
by Ulf 2 To carry forward the work of procuring funds for the erection of the I
i bettel   memorial, a committee of fifty leading citizens of Kentucky, chosen from E,
i every section of the State, an executive committee of eleven citizens of  
~p0Hd€d Lexington, and a general manager, have been appointed and have already _  
if 50115 J entered upon the work in hand.  
Wh€H·  · It is the pu1·pose of the organization to make a popular subscription

   THE KENTUCKY ALUMNUS 11 I
H· F· j  ALUMNI SHOULD AID THRIFT CAMPAIGN
winch n The Savings Division of the United States Treasury Department re- ·
6 You  , quests that we aid in the National Thrift Campaign by issuing a call to l A
l Del" € Kentucky alumni through The Alumnus, urging them to co-operate actively j .
D mm  , with the local Savings Director in their respective communities. ° `
Crowd Q As conducted this year, the government’s campaign is primarily an edu- I
  cational campaign to make thrift a regular and pe1·1nanent habit of all the 4
 " people. Probably thirty million Americans bought government securities '
 ¤ in 1918 and if the larger part of them can be persuaded to continue the Q
`  · practice of saving regularly and seeking some form of wise investment, it . .
Ameri   will be a most valuable by-product ofthe war. The benefits will accrue A ~
Q Use  V first of all to the individuals and families who save, but quite as obviously , I
Slides  _ to the whole progress of American business and trade, and to every under- {
’   taking which depends upon the steady accumulation of savings and the i, y
1 Sm.   growth of capital for its success.  
Qi The campaign will go on continuously and aims to induce individuals _.
_  , and families to set aside regularly some share of their earnings, a dollar I
iujgmu  " a week or more, and invest it in the government’s baby bond—the VVar  
mvm"   Savings Stamp. The local savings directors aim to organize VVar Savings  
IGSQHL  t Societies in every occupational group, in factories, stores and offices, and ·   ·
€1'S{ty’   to introduce thrift instruction and the practice of saving into every school  
Gutmg g room. College graduates who are employers can help particularly by wel- :
On GTB  Z coming thrift organizations and the sale of VVar Savings Stamps in their _  
Qzpiig   establishments. _
