THE Nashville Herald prints the
following
"It is related by Judge 10. G. Guild,
in his "Old Times in Tennessee" that
the first white child born ON Tonnes
see soil was Russell Bean, in East Ten
nessee, in 1869. One of the best known
citizens of South Pittsburg bears that
exact name. Although nearly a Gen.
fury and a quarter have elapsed since
the first Caucasian infant of that cog.
nomen was born in the wilderness
among the mountains, it is probable
that the young man at South Pitts
burg is a direct descendant of the pio-
neer babe"
A News reporter happened to meet
Russell 0. Beane, of South Pittsburg,
on the street te.day. He is we'll known
here, as Chattanooga is as much his
home as South Pittsburg is,
1t was learned from him that the pi-
oneer baby referred to above was his
great, great, great grandfather.
He accounts for the adding on of the
re" in his name by the fact that a feud
arose among the brothers and they di-
vided, four against four. To distin.
guish them apart the faction TO which
his grandfather belonged added the
re" to the spelling Of the name.

A MEMORABLE ANNIVERSARY.

October re Unftes Four Centuries of
American Life.
October 12 will have prominent place
in history. 1t not only unites the four
centuries of American life that are clos
ing with the centuries that are before
us, but it will be made memorable by "A
great national celebration. The signal
for this demonstration will be the dedi-
cation of the Worlds Columbian expo
sition grounds in Chicago.
On that day our foremost American
institution-the public school-will be
the center of local celebrations in the
cities and towns from the Atlantic to the
Pacific.
BY linking together all these local
celebrations as parts of systematic
national demonstration the full signifi-
canoe of the day will be brought out.
The object for this movement for a
national celebration is not only TO inter
est the youth of the country in the
Worlds Columbian exposition, but also
to give to the American public school
fitting prominence as the fruit of four
centuries of American life.
Both the Worlds congress commission
of the Columbian exposition and the
American superintendents of education
have requested that the public schools
of each city and town lead in the local
celebration. These two bodies have also
appointed joint executive committee
to direct the movement and to prepare
uniform and fitting programme for uni
versal use.
Every wideawake boy and girl in our
land has read or will read the message
issued by the Columbian public school
celebration commission with keen inter
est. 1t speaks vigorous word to every
one of the several million pupils in our
public schools. How far the spirit of
this message is carried out depends npon
each individual boy and girl. We be.
lieve they will respond to it promptly
and enthusiastically. They are too thor
Dughly imbued with the true spirit Of
American loyalty and patriotism to per
NIT such an opportunity to be lost.
They will enter into the spirit Of this i'm
portant event with characteristic Amer
ican energy and determination.
1t is an inspiring thought that on Oct.
12 all the loyal sons and daughters of
our land will be united by one common
purpose of such lofty conception We
believe that the pupils in our public
schools will prove as enterprising and
intelligently patriotic as those of any
city or town in America. Don't wait
until the eleventh hour. II our schools
are to attempt to be the center Of local
celebration which shall be worthy OF the
day there is none too much time for
preparation Let the schools begin at
once. Teachers and scholars should
make common cause.
