 To perpetuate in marble or bronze those who have rendered distinguished service to the state, to science or human ity is a legitimate and laudable purpose. IT. this particular Alabama has been re- miss. Many of her sons have distin- guished themselves in war, as soldiers; in peace, as statesmen and in science, as scientists, yet throughout this great state there Is but one statue, commence rative of the valor and deeds of her sons that of Admiral Semmes at Mobile. Al- fusion is not here made to monuments erected to bodies of men, for example, the Confederate soldiers There are many who have participated in making the history of Alabama in it's industrial development, it's commercial enterprises, and in other relations of civil life, whose names should be perpetuated by statue and monument.
 The present occasion is one of rare occurrence. It is to be remarked that 1t Is under the auspices of a scientific or ganzation whose members consist of men who are devoting their lives to the relief of human suffering. The surgery of today, in it's principles, is a science; in it's practice. an art. A great surgeon must have the wisdom of sage, the courage of a soldier, the judgment of a jurist the gentleness of a woman and the skill of an artist. To contrast the surgery of today with that of hundred years ago is a thorough demonstration of the great advance made in the heal ing art. At that time the practice of sur gerry was little short of assault upon the person. The strong tables and harness for confining the patient, the pulleys, le- vers and other powerful mechanical in- struments demonstrate it's crudity.

scientific manipulation, and uncleanliness by aseptic technique.
 Gentlemen of the Southern Surgical and Genealogical association, you have met here today, as a body, to witness the unveiling of statue of such man. Dr. W. 10. B. Davis. You were his CO., workers brethren and peers. By virtue of your own knowledge and experience, you are better qualified to judge of his merits as a. surgeon than any one else. In recognition of these merits and as an expression of your gratitude to him as the founder of your organization, you have contributed to this splendid statue. Coming, as it does, from those who are best qualified to judge of him as sur- geon, from those with whom he has been so often associated in the discussion of surgical problems and practice, it is a special work of honor and distinction.
 Remarkable Ability.
 Had 1t been contributed by his family and friends, it would be one of love and affection; by the general public, one of esteem and respect, but from you it is from all these, with the addition of a profound appreciation and admiration of his great ability. In doing this, gentle men, you have honored yourselves. You have shown to the world that the doctor is capable of appreciating and express ing that appreciation of his brother doctor and competitor. It is recogni- tion of your obligation to Dr. Davis, who saw the possibilities of the great success that you today enjoy. You look upon this statue today with loving eyes and feeling hearts; it recalls to your mind a courteous, affable, polite. dignified gen. tIaf ft, social rpla- tions; it recalls to your mind the pro found scientist who discussed in your hearing the great principles of modern surgery. You see in 1t an image of the considerate but strong debater, man who knew his ground and vigorously maintained it. You see the image Of one who was not only an innovator in es- tablishing modern surgery in the commit nity in which he lived but a pioneer in investigation and discovery. Altogether you recall the enthusiasm, ambition, en- ergy and activity of Dr. Davis. Rising from poverty and obscurity, he made name in the world which is most known among his co-workers. His life work was success, not the least of which is this splendid society of great and dis tinguished surgeons.
 Aside from my friendship and admira- tion for Dr. Davis, aside from the fact that I am fellow of this association, and therefore one who appreciates your great work and your motive in erecting this statue, come here today as the present executive of Alabama, in consid- eration of the science of surgery and the obligation that humanity is under to the surgical profession and in further con sderation of the character as a man and surgeon of Dr. Davis. to receive, upon the part of the state, this splendid statue, which will here stand as a memorial of his greatness as a surgeon of his char acter as man and of your appreciation.

 Young though he was, as the tables of time record, vet in service to his country and his kind, there are few however worn by age, the stature of whose use fitness compares with his.

in his office, was held an organization meeting, of which the session now in progress is the seventeenth anniversary. Elected secretary at that time' he dis charged the eXacting duties of this eX- eoutive office with an efficiency which required of him much personal sacrifice for more than a dozen years, and not until after the association had emerged from trial stages to It's fixed place in professional esteem. would he permit his selection for the presidency a position to which he had ever been eligible and a consumation long the undivided will Of the membership.
 It is especially gratifying in view of his untimely passing from LIS, that this hon or was not longer deferred upon any account. for although he had occupied positions of distinction to be attained only through merit in the most notable medical organization in his own land and across the sea, yet he counted the presidency of the Southern Surgical as- soeiation, from which he had lately re- tired, the crownlng glory of them all. But how poor was our best offering, and how appropriate the sentiment inspiring this occasion. One in which by a recOs- hilton of a brothers Worthiness We dis charge an obligationof love, and an act of reciprocal affection as natural as that of parent and child.
 SaIutary Lessons.
 If this day. with it's proceedings, be logically followed, it's lessons will be lasting and salutary We do not engage in hero worship, nor do We disturb the vital principle of equality.
 1t Is well that we occasionally pause in the restless rush of human activities, q H,aa inf our losses while preparing for further journey. It is to the credit of our call ing and the civilization i'll which it is so important a factor, that success in sci ence and achievements in civic affairs shall be signalized, as surely as attain ments in the more obtrusiYe and glitter ing walks of life. The truth is, my friends, that there Is urgent need in these times of commereialized con sciences and of military display, that the bent of our contemplations be more of ten turned toward the loftier hills of faith and duty, and away from the more alIuring scenes of conquest and carnage. There are nobler ambitions than to de- stroy, and never. perhaps, in the history of our race, was 1t more relevant to council men Hest their feet run to evil

gust, the last ingratitude and all Gestruc- tion Nations that utilize power only In the exercise of barbarty, as individ- uals who apply wealth to sordid pur- poses, pass before the cycle of a Chris tian era, leaving only traditions that confuse. and memorials that offend. There are lessons relative to men and morals that are quite as important as those of money and musketry. Physi- cal courage and disregard of danger Is least lacking in example for beginning with Virginia and Massachusetts, history records hundreds of such heroes, the product of each succeeding generation Our ideas are resultant from examples and environments, ana these, when crys- talized control our conduct. This Is true with government, as with individuals of which they are composed. Let America lead the world in letters, and excel in righteousnessi These attributes, rather than uniformed physical force, will vital ize our energies at home and preserve our well being among the nations or the earth. Learning and liberty, as comelt- ness and character. certainly may some times separate, but we have not yet heard that a column Is less strong be- cause its shaft is carved, nor that the sword of Damascus was less keen be- cause it's blade was polished, and it's ham ale beset with jewels
 Great men are universally for the null titude and whether lamented or enjoyed, an appreciation of the elementary vir- tues which constitute the chiefest glory of the age in which they live becomes the sublimest inspiration we may know.
 Our departed brother, to whom this shaft Is raised, was a many sided eX- ponent of the truest type of our modern civilization, a very century bloom! And without hope of adding lustre to that honor individually attained, the object o9 these ceremonies is rather to render more persuasive the paintings of his pathway. and more enduring the lessons Of his life! It was not so mucn char acteristic of his to demonstrate special virtues. as that he practiced them all wi.h becoming modesty.
 Uniform Qualities.
 His qualities were so uniform in con struction and so consistent in their ad- justment. that he blended the delicacy of loyeliest womanhood with a stalwart sturdness of majestic man. Nature had been lavish in his human heritage. Yet he pursued his purpose with a constancy imperative with these of whom the gods of fortune had apparently been less mindful He was adapted to leadership because of the confidence inspired by his own convictions This faculty enabled him to command the energies of others. without hazard or being diverted by them. While an adherent to a written | code, it was never needed for his guid- 1 ance. The rule of conduct, which he ap- | piled to his personal and professional re- | lations. was marked by such delicate
