RACE RIOTS IN THE SOUTH

When the recent race riots in
Northern cities were holding the
cOuntry's attention. numbers of our
Southern papers and speakers took
occasion TO point out that such riots
were distinctly Northern, that while
we of the South might indulge in
a lynching now and then, we did not
attack the innocent negroes along
with the guilty and did not have
race riots.
This self-satisfaction was prema-
ture. The recent riots in Knoxville,
Tenn. have made plain 10 all Of us
that race feeling is Just now intense
in the South as well as in the North.
This is a dangerous state Of af-
fairs. and shameful one. II is a
state Of affairs that must not he al
lowed to continue. u cannot he
ended, however. by any one man or
group of men. or in any Off-hand
manner, II the two races are TO
live together in peace in this coun-
try-and live together peaceably or
otherwise they must-they have yet
to learn a good many things.
Just how many OF these things 10
be learned there are. no one can
safely say at present: hut there is
one thing which il seems all should
have learned by this time, but which
we white Of the South are all the
time forgetting to our own sorrow
and disgrace That thing is that the
negro must have the protection Of
the courts and the laws, that there
must be no interference with the
machinery OF justice. Peace be-
tween the two races is impossible
rs long as the lynching Of negroes
is continued, as long as the black
race is made 10 feel that il has not

law.

Of the community met at p. m. at
the Baptist Church. In the center
and we'll TO the front Of the church,
seats were designated by national
color bunting for the soldier boys OF
our community who had been called
10 the colors in the recent great war.
They filed in in military costume.
DR.. FELTON,, the chairman, an
nounced The hymn, America, which
we all sang standing.
Rev. Cunningham, Of the Baptist
Church. led the invocation. Next
the soldier boy quartet sang.
The principal speaker for the oc-
casion was DR.. Telford, Of the First
Presbyterian Church Of Richmond
The audience expected something
good from DR.. Telford and they were
not disappointed. He gave a mes
sage from the heart which went Ia
the heart.
Miss Haley sang at the close Of
the address.
The next exercise was 40 be on the
Public School grounds. The chair
man asked that pupils Of the Public
School he allowed 10 march out first,
soldier boys second, and friends and
relatives last. So at $3.50, with SOL
emn tread and mufrlcd sound. thew
all marched 10 the Public School
grounds.
Here Robt. Spence, our efficient ag-
ricultural agent, had procured for
the club four trees from a Louis
willie nursery to be planted on tho
grounds as a memorial TO our four
soldier boys who lost their lives in
defense Of liberty and humanity.
DR.. FELTON, asked the Principal Of
the school 10 preside on school
grounds. Trees were brought TO the
front Of school building and placed
for planting. The school sang a ded-
ication song: then $50 school chill
drpn passed by each tree, each child
putting a handful Of earth around
each tree. after which DR.. J. w.
Raine gave the dedication address.
DR.. Raine seemed at his best in his
well chosen words. Here DR.. Rainc

fallen heroes-one for John b. Cab

Brother Hudspeth, OF the Christian

As the dedication exercises were
closing a shower Of rain began 10
fall, seemingly in sympathy with
relatives and friends whose eyes
filed with tears as they thought OF
a lonely grave in the bottom Of the
sea, and others in a foreign land.
On account of the lateness of the
hour and the threatened storm other
exercises were omitted and the au-
dience was dismissed.
A group Of our people went from
school grounds to MiddletOwn where
two trees were planted in memory
of two colored boys who lost their
lives IN the great war.
The events of the day made a deer
impression on the people gathered
especially the children. May the
memory of our departed heroes be
forever kept green by such fitting

Older people have accidents Of a
more or less serious nature. Quite
often child is injured in a way
that leaves an ugly wound, or a
lame limb, for life. Or an adult
suffers an injury that handicaps
him for the rest Of his days. AL

the life of the patient.
1t is always safe plan to be pre-
