Our Debt to Batt1e-Broken
Warriors of the Gross

YIGHLY meanngful among the philan-
II thropic movements Of the day is that
OF the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, to establish an endowment fund of ten
million dollars for more adequate support Of
the infirm veterans of its ministry the "su-
perannuates' as they are called and of their
widows and orphans. The endeavor is of
public interest because of the sound princi-
pies, economic and social, as well as reli-
gious, which 1t embodies; and because, more
over, Of the part which these battle-broken
warriors of the cross have borne in the max
ing Of commonwealth and country.
discerning historian has said of Amerl-
can leadership in Revolutionary times that
the mantle Of Samuel Davies, an early presi-
dent of Princeton and for years a missionary
on the Southern frontier, fell upon Patrick
Henry. at was" he writes, "as if the colo
nists had carried over into secular activities
some strain from the Great Awakening,
something of the intensity of deep-seated
moral convictions. The floodtide of re-
ligious emotion ebbed but to flow in other
channels; and men who had been so pro-
more readily moved by the appeal of the revo-
lutionary orator." From thousands of cir
cult riders" who now sleep in forgotten
tombs, mantle of light and of power has
fallen upon America. Through perils Of
wilderness and mountain solitudes they went
their arduous ways, 'in WEAKNESS and pain
fulness, in watchings often, in hunger and
thirst" sharing their peoples laughter and
tears kindling ideals of education and i'm
pulses to social progress in a rough and tum-
BILE time, working that hearts might be kind
lier, that neighborliness might more
abound, and that the minds of men might
open to vaster issues. Pioneers they were of
that which is sturdiest most fruitful most
beneicent in our culture-preparers OF the
way to a nobler nation.
Georgia's debt to these vanished builders
and to their living successors is among the
highest her heart can hold. Not page of
her social and educational history but is lit
with their labors; not stride of constructive
endeavor but is interknit with their sinews.
Time was when the chief counselors of states
were SPACIOUS Observation-Disclosures, Beckett,
Wosey, and many another. In rarer and
freer sense today the men whose lives utter
the epic of the cross are still the state 5
prime ministers, though their voices never
reach beyond the hearthsides OF the hum
blest, and old age find them having not where
to lay their heads. No truer pathos sounds
from literature than the feeble cry of Shake
speare's gray prelate at the abbey door:
An old man, broken with the storms OF
state,
Is come to lay his weary bones among
We;
Give him little earth for charity!
Such is the insrticulate cry today OF many
an aged minister OF the church Not charity.
but golden gratitude is their due. May every
effort to provide justly for them end in over
