THE SOUTH'S GIFT TO
THE FIGHTING WORLD,

AS our first "ten thousand" sailed
cut of harbor for thier unknown port
in France, so the published story goes
it was Dixie" that broke the tense
ness of the final moments and stirred
the crowd to cheers.
First there was "Tipperary," raised
by blythe little soldier voice as if
10 break the heavy portent of dra-
matte understanding that threatened
to over whelm the waiting crowd.
But "Tipperary" would not do. 1t
was the marching song of English
boys too newly dead to be forgotten.
1t but added to the strain.
There was since, then quiet
note or two, with tat braatlcatch-
ing pause that we know SO we'll, then
a whirl;ng uplift of quick melody, and
the ships band had burst into the
ringing strains of "Dxie!"
1t was that same Dixie" that Lin
coin proclaimed a national possession
when he had it played by the govern
ment band in Washington on the fate
full day of Lees surrender. 1t is
loved by Americans, North and South.
1t now bids fair to encircle the earth.
This was the South's battle song
of the Sixties. 1t tells the story Of
heroic armies long ago dissolved and
of bIood-red banners furled these
many years. 1t stirs the heart to
memory and to tears.
Yet it is not a martial air. We do
not stand to its strains, nor do we
uncover when it is played. 1t is in
innate and human, filled less with
grandeur than with joy. 1t is more
than war song, it is the heart song
of the south.
1t is our song of childhood and soft
lullabies, of youth and pride, and
happiness. 1t holds the perfume of
magnolia and of jessamine. 1t is ten
der with the sound of the South wind
blowing through long moss. 1t is vi
brant with the rustic of palmetto
leaves, and sweet with the melody of
slave voices singing in the cotton and
the cane.
In the heart of it's lightness, it
carries the patriotism and sacrifice of
splendid youth, the eternal youngness
of our long-gone heroes. It's strains
defy regret and grief. They bring
to us, through many years, the spirit
of generation that held to the joy
of life even in the midst of desolation
and defeat. In their melody the
dauntless hopes of such youth lives
again.
Dixie" is the home song of a
brave and lovely land. 1t holds no
bitterness, it makes no plea. 1t goes
straight from heart to heart
And now, of this dear Southern
song of ours, we make a gift to the
armies of our allies over the seas. 1t
will take to them something of the
same exultant eagerness that it al
ways brings to us. 1t will carry to
them, also, a message from the South
more full of truth and meaning than
any that mere history can teach

lNTE RLUDE.

The days grow shorter, the nights
longer;
~fhe hard stones thicken along the
way;
And life grows sadder, but love grows
stronger,
For those who walk with us dav by
day.
The tear comes quicker, the laugh
comes slower;
The courage is lesser to do and
dare;
And the tide of juy in the heart falls
And seldom covers the reefs of care
truer
And the better things of earth seem
best,
And friends are dearer as friends are
fewer,
And love is all as our sun dips west.
Then let us clasp hands as we walk
together,
And let us speak softly in loves
sweetes tone;
For no man knows on the morrow
whether.
We two pass on-or but one alone.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
