/ and who has good vision i'm both

ct thcmsclvc, make the place ia

who are running things there are
statesmen. They deal with big

"rm grasp Oh The problem. of tha
people Of the southland. of bot
races alike, and they have very
clear conceptions of their duty and
the duty of other leaders towards
them. There Is no hedging about.
no lodging issues with these men.
They know what they want TO do.
they have very definite program
worked out and written down, and
every man Of them was on his lob.
And this program was not made by
ldeallsts, nor was it made i'm a dis
tant Office and mailed up to Lee

workers. II was made by the men
on the job and on the field, by men
who have travelled up and down the
southland, from cotton plantation
and orange grove to mountain farm
and laurel rough, and know the peo-
pie of the land and their needs.
These men are not visionary. but
belong To the class with knowledge
of things and people, with poise and
common sense. They are not there F.
to win applause. or to exploit, but
serve And that's just what they 1
are doing.
A second thing noticeable about /
the place is the fact that the peo-
pie who work there laugh.
| have been all over the grounds
and have climbed all the mountains.
have seen the men on all sorts Of
summer days. under many different
circumstances. and / have never
yet discovered a grump on any
bodys face. They smile, laugh,
make merry, work like titans. pray,
get results, make themselves con-
iagiOus to everybody except the
most hopeless.
Anybody who rubs elbows a few
lays with these men will grow
younger and get the smile habit.
