| that does not seem to be tangible yet
 ever present and overpowering. The tenn l perament of our people is healthy, the brighter side of life is looked upon; all ] prophecies have been more than fulfilled
 and he who speaks mot of great things
 and still greater things, Is pointed out | and pushed aside by the high aspirant.
 Birmingham is strong in broad minded | Christian spirits. We are strong in our
 support of charity, and the charity that | never turns away should not be crlti- ! eised for the few dollars 1t receives. Our ! first and greatest lesson was taught by
 the Master, who went after the one that 1 was lost. It was not of the multitude
 that was housed, but of one. only one
 that was suffering. and out. With 1t all,
 however, we are optimistic. Outward,
 into beautiful suburbs we are growing,
 upward our stocks and spires are reach
 ing, and onward is the spirit of every
 one, cheered by the applause of our ad-
 hiring country.
 For the purpose of securing the active | interest and support of the Daughters of the American Revolution. the following | communication has been sent to D. A R. | chapters:
 It Is with the encouragement and en- 1 dorsement of our president general, Mrs Donald Mclean, and the chairman of our l committee on patriotic education, Miss l Ellen Mecum, that the Southern Indust- rial Educational association presents this
 appeal to us.
 The Daughters of the American Revo- l lution have done a greater work in per l petuating and honoring the heroes who
 fought for liberty than has ever been ac- eomplished by any association, in any country. We are building a monumental | edlfice more beautiful than has ever been
 erected by any body of women. The re-
 port of our committee on patriotic edu- cation shows that as an association we are reaching out in all directions to help
 the stranger that lands on our shores to 1 be law-abiding subjects of their adopted l country; that clubs are formed among
 the children of these immigrants for the 1 study of our history and civics. Can we not combine to build in the ne-
 glected children of the rural districts
 such loyal intelligent industrial citi zens as will be a mighty force for the
 purity of our politics and the strength
 ening of our nation that will last through 1 out eternity?
 Can we not as chapters, or as lndivid-
 uals, give such help in this great work as will cause future generations to honor | this body, as we today are honoring the ] heroes who made this country the freest i and grandest on the globe?
 Cannot a chapter give a scholarship, or 1 several chapters combine for the educa- ton of one child each year? A little help from each daughter annually, for ten years, will wipe out the stigma of illlt- eracy from this fair portion of our beau tiful land.
 Each school we help is visited frequent ly by members of our board. All subscriptions will be published In the annual report of the committee on patriotic education, and in the report of the Southern Industrial Educational as sociation. Subscriptions to be sent to the 1 recording secretary of the Southern In- q ri o1
