for the old ideals, for the courtesy and
chivn)ry and hospitality OF the old South;
for It's scorn OF treachery and ill-gotten
gains. for It's reverence for sacred things;

spirit

not the richest period OF her histois s.,
Taking stock Of all assets, tangible a ii1
intangible. moral and material, visible
and Invisible, the South was greatest
amid the horror and gloom OF defeae III
lsG5. In a shallow sense she was ruined,
annh,lated, shaken to pieces, Win ~
flower Of her manhood dead upon tn'
field If honor The sun Of her great ma

chaos had como again. She faced ~
ture through the gloom Of which quiv-
cred no hope OF coming day. In that
dark time was bred race OF heroes.

won? Prosperity is a severer test OF tne
character OF q nation than adversely.
rho finest traits Of manhood are some
times blighted BY the sun. II the ola

Proceeding, Or. Smith said he was
| glad the South was still an old-fash-
] Toned part Of the country. The sons and
daughters of the new South, intoxicated
with being up-to-date, wish to swap the
old, pure gold for the glittering tlnsel
the times. The speaker said he was
| glad 1t was old-fashioned Let the indus
| trial development continue, but hold fast
J to the old-time ideals that distinguished
| the old South and made 1t glorious.
| Thus" said DR.. Smith, in conclusion,
| yoke the scar of national destiny to the
4 car OF eternal purpose.
