To the Kdllor ol Tim Observer: 1 noticed In a recent Issue of The nbserwi a uKtton ,,1Ht rt ouul be started for the puvpose of estal llshlug a memorial to that" sweet story-teller of the South, our chil dren's 'Turin Remus." Nothing could be more appropriate than that such a fund should be raised by tho children of this whole country and that every child, especially of the South, should contribute to It. But. Mr.-Kdltor, do not let the memorial be a shaft or a statuto to stand mute and useless (upnn some busy so.ua re, unnoticed after the cere mony of It unvelllnK. save as some straiiKer minht stop to read Its In scription, or the newspaper might mention it to locale the occurrence of some accident or crime. Rather Pt his monument be a HvlriK one. which wlfl do (,'ood and be a blessing and bring comfort and pleasure to the little ones whfmi he lovyd and for limn he wrote. If I may be permitted. 1 suggest that there be erected In the city where I'ncle Remus" was lirn, and where most of those charmlnK tales were told, a hospital for i hildren. I,et hi- sweet face and welcoming hand. Ihouch silent and motionless, greet all who enter, ami b-t tho weary hours of pain be shortened and made glad by his stories read or told by sympathetic nurses, while pictures of " I r r Rabbit" and I tr' r Cox" and all the others hang upon 'the walls that thoughts of sickness urn! suffer ing may be changed to dreams of hialth ami happiness. Thus. I be lli ye. would his works go on through countless generations. for nothing short of national decnv could make us allow such nn Institution to die, and thus would bin noble liaracter, hi gracious sympathy and his en nobling Influence bp grafted In the In art of tbotf, he loved so well.
