WANTS THE SONS TO ORGANIZE.
An Ex- Confederate Makes Suggestion
to the Sons of Veterans.

MIR. EDITOR: ! see from THE NEWS
that the ladies have met and organize d
chapter of the Daughters of the Con-
federacy to aid in the noble work un-
dertaken by the Daughters of the Cou-
federacy of the South. Why not the
sons of veterans and the young men
organize camp of the Omitted Sons
of Confederate Veterans" and aid the
Daughters of the Confederacy in the
grand and noble work they have be-
gun? BY doing so they would not only
give honor where it is due, hut would
teach the coming generation that the
confederate soldiers were worthy of
the cause for which they fought. Can
il be that these sons of veterans are
wanting in patriotism and wish to blot
out from memory the priceless heri-
age bequeathed to the coming genera
tions from Manassas to Appomattox ?
Young men, it is duty you owe to
the gallant dead on the fields of car
mage aud also to the living to maintain
the righteousness of theircause before
their defendants of the future. Those
of you who lovethe traditions of faith
erhood, who boast of a common heri-
tage, these things come home to the
heart with peculiar force, for
Breathe there the man with soul so dead
Who never TO himself has said,
This is mine own, my native land"
Think of the high objects of such a
confederation; OF your duty in perpetu-
ating the proud records of your soldier
fathers and their gray-clad comrades
who we love so well; of your devotion
to the sweeo memories of your mothers
and all of those Spartan women of the
south, who must share alike the hon
ors with the old heroes.
Heaven grant that the daughter:
and sons of the veterans may prove
worthy of the heritage bequeathec
them by the heroic and brave soldiers
of our lost cause.
