Dr. Rosalie Slaughter Morton Brings a Mess
age from Servia
All who were fortunate enough to hear
Dr. Mori"ii Friday afternoon at the Tub
man auditorium enjoyed a rare tr**at,
and heard a message from Serbia ho
full of pathoH and suffering as to bring
tears to the eyes and awaken In th«
heart a deep gratitude for the wonderful
part that nation took in saving the world,
particularly our land, from German op
pression.
A Virginian by birth, Dr. Morton posr
•esses all those graces of voice and mane
ner peculiar to the daughters of that
land, enhanced by those high Ideals of
patriotism which have placed her as on©
of the greatest women Ibis war has pro
duced.
Kite left a lucrative practice and posi
tions of prominence in New Vork cltv to
answer the call of her country. Without
financial assistance. using the accumula
tion of her own efforts, she hastened to
the suffering land of Serbia, where the
people were not only in the throes of
war hut of that, scourge of armies, ty
phoid fever.
Hnb u was hemmed In on all sides bv
the enemy. Far from the base of hos
pital supplies and allied assistance, no
nation suffered more un w lfishly or fought
with more heroism. Dr Morton eloquent
ly portrayed the miraculous stand of that
little nation While Belgium and France
were devastated, Serbia was crucified.
Preferring to sacrifice all rather than to
weaken the strength of the allied urrrdca,
Serbia fought alon© that England and
America might carry the offensive drives
to victory.
Her universities are destroyed; her
clths laid waste; her farm lands great
boles of sbe||.torn earth and her king
An attractive Victory Liberty |*onn
exhibit Is being made in a prominent
Southern city. A window on one tit the
prominent streets properly backgrounded
and hung with posters, contained a dis
play of photographs of the hoys of that
county that have done their part In the
World War There is a picture of Just
as many as could be secured and these
are exhibited in attractive disarray.
Horne of the hoys Mist look out so fear
lessly art If challenging the aid of others
to do their part, have fallen asleep for

Horne of the ot tiers are of hoys who
have returned, others of those who are
still over-seas. Altogether It Is a most
attractive as well as appeal exhibit end
touches the pocket hook as well us the
hearts of all who see It.
The selection of Mrs. W, W. Rattey as
chairman of the work for the relief of
Her via, has been a most happy one al
though those who know Mrs. Bat ley
best fe«| fha* she should have a rest

The women of ,Serbia are beautiful;
the men manly and brave 'I he people

that .Shakespeare's plays w«t< performed
often-r In Belgrade than In any city in
Europe.
In conclusion, she appealed to the peo
ple of Augusta to help that little tuition
to live. We who still have our homes
and loved ones, who have not suffer* d
the scourge or war; whose temples of
worship and learning are untouched in
the! rheauty and usefulness; whose lands

whose returning heroes will soon be safe

At tin* conclusion of the lecture, Dr.
