stating that man was killed there
by train. In trying to Identify him
a letter was found in his grip from
the dead mans sister in Oklahoma,
stating that she dreamed her brother
was killed in a railroad wreck. Is
there more in the science of the soul
than you have dreamed of in your

There is much about ourselves, our
mental relations to other mentalties
and our own actions relative to the
actions of others which We do not
understand There is something of
the spirit, of universally, of kinship
with unknown forces in the shadow
land, which enters into our being and
influences us consciously or uncon-
sciously We are discovering slowly
that there are controlling agents out
side our own egoes who operate
through our minds and that our minds
are based upon phenomena wholly be-

Making allowance for large amount

BRYAN LADIES ENLIST
In the Fight Against the Great White
PIaeue-Meeting Called for Wed
nesday-Dr. oliver Will Lead
the Discussion


The ladies of the Mutual Improve
ment Club, through their president,
Mrs. M. w. Sims, have called a pub
lie meeting at Carnegie Hall to con-
slider the condition of Bryan as re-
CARDS tuberculosis. The meeting viii
be called to order at 3 p. m. DIR.
w. II. Oliver has consented TO speak
on the subject and there is good rea-
son TO expect that some of the facts
he will present will be not only in
teresting but startling. While the
movement was started by the ladies, 1t
is their wish to enlist all the intelli-
gent people of Bryan and TO this end
an invitation to attend this initial
meeting Is extended to all.
This local movement is part of the
general uprising agaist the greatest
of all destroyers of human life. The
victims of tuberculosis every year
outnumber those of all other diseases
combined. Contrary to the old opin-
ions that it is hereditary and incur
able, modern science has demonstrate
ed that it is infectious and durable in
its early stages, and, better still, that
it is preventable In warfare of any
kind the victory may be won by
making conditions such that the enemy
cannot subsist, and this is precisely
the object of this extermi-
nate the tuberculosis bacilli by de-
stroying their means of propagation
and subsistence.
This is a matter that appeals to
everybody, for while this insidious
enemy is permitted to Turk in our
midst none of us know but that our
selves or some of our loved ones will
be among the next of those whom
he marks for his prey. Indifference
in such case is not simply mex
cusable, it is criminal. Remember the
declaration of Holy Writ: He that
knoweth to do good and doeth it not,

Amerieanism Defined.

There is another point in General
all OF us to remember. Whereas
Grant, Sherman and Thomas were of
the old native American stock, the
parents of Sheridan, like the parents
of Farragut. were born on the other
side Of the water. Any one OF the five
was just as much Il type of the real
American, OF what Is best In America.
as the other four We should keep
steadily before our minds the fact
that Americanlsm is question OF
principle. OF purpose, OF ideallsm, OF
character that 1t Is not matter Of
birthplace or creed or line of descent.
Here In this country the representa-.
tives of many old world races are
being fused together into a new type.
a type the main features of which are
already determined and were deter.
mined at the time of the Revolutionary
war. for the crucible In which all the
new types are melted into one was
shaped from 1916 to 1850, and our ma.
tlonallty was definitely fixed In all its
essentials by the men Of Washlngton's
day The strains will not continue to
exist separately In this country as in
the old world They will be combined
in one, and OF this new type those men
will best represent what Is oftiest In
the nations past. what is finest in her
hope for the future who stand each
solely on his worth as man, who
scorn to do evil to others and who
refuse to submit to wrongdoing them
selves. who have in them no faint of
weakness. who never fear to fight
when fighting Is demanded by sound
and high morality, but who hope by
their lives TO bring ever nearer the
day when justice and peace shall pre-.
vail within our own borders and I'm
our relations with all foreign powers.
Much of the usefulness of any career
must lie in the impress that 1t makes
upon and the lessons that ii teaches to
the generations that come after. We
of this generation have our own prob
lens to solve. and the condition Of our
solving them Is that we shall all work
together as American citizens without
regard to differences of section or
creed or birthplace, copying not the di-
visions which so lamentably sundered
our fathers one from another, but the
spirit of burning devotion to duty
which drove them forward, each to do
the right as it was given him to see
the right In the great years when
Grant. Farragut, Sherman, Thomas
and Sheridan. when Lee and Jackson
and the Johnstons. the valiant men of
the north and the valiant men of the
south. fought to finish the great civil
war. They did not themselves realize
in the bitterness of the struggle that
the blood and the grim suffering mark
ed the death throes of what was worn
out and the birth pangs of new
and more glorious national life. Mighty
is the heritage which we have received
from the men of the mighty days. We
in our turn must grid up our loins to
meet the new issues with the same
stern courage and resolute adherence
to an ideal which marked our fathers
who belonged to the generation Of the
man In whose honor we commemorate
this monument today.

Forks to Appomattox Is one difficult to
parallel in military history. After the
close of the great war, In field where
there was scant glory to be won by the
general IL chief. he rendered a signal
service which has gone almost unno-
ticed. for In the tedious, weary Indian
wars on the great plains 1t was he who
developed in thoroughgoing fashion
the system Of campaigning in winter
which. at the cost of bitter hardship
and peril, finally broke down the band
ed strength of those formidable war
riors. the horse Indians.
Generals Career EuIogized.
His career was typically American.
for from plain beginnings he rose to
the highest military position in our
land. We honor his memory itself
and. moreover, as In the case Of the
other great commanders of his day.
his career symbolizes, the careers Of
all those men who I'm the years of the
nations dlrest need sprang to the
front to risk everything. including life
itself. and to spend the days Of their
strongest young manhood in valorous
conflict for an ideal Often we Amer
leans are tainted with having only a
material ideal. The empty folly of the
taunt is sufficiently shown by the
presence here today of you men of the
Grand Army. you the. comrades OF the
dead general, the men who served
with and under him. In all history
we have no greater instance of subor-
dinatlon of self. OF the exaltlng OF q
lofty ideal over merely material well
being among the people OF a great ma
ton. than was shown by our own peo'
pie In the civil war.
And you, the men who wore the
blue. would be the first TO say that
this same lofty Indifference to the
things of the body. when compared to
the things of the soul. was shown by
your brothers who wore the gray.
Dreadful was the suffering, dreadful
the loss, of the civil war. Yet II
stands alone among wars In this, that,
now that the wounds are healed. the
memory of the mighty deeds of valor
performed on one side no less than on
the other has become the common
heritage OF all our people in every
quarter of this country. The com
pleteness with which this Is true Is
shown by what Is occurring here TO.
day. We meet together to raise a
monument TO a great Union general
In the presence of many Of the sur
yivors of the Union army, and the sec
rotary of war, the man ut the head Of
the army. who. by virtue of his Of
fee, occupies special relation to the
celebration, Is himself man who
fought In the Confederate service.
Few indeed have been the countries
where such conjunction would have
been possible, and blessed indeed are
we that I'm our own beloved land II is
not only possible. but seems so entire
ly natural as to excite no comment
