Unfolding Southerners in avoiding
the extremes, the speaker declared that
they were holding back for themselves
and the good of the Nation.
I'm the country. at large" he said.
certainly among the most intellectual
and artistic, there has been a reaction
against Puritanism, and yet here Is the
very stronghold OF Puritanism; a reac-
tion against the pioneer spirit that i'm
poyerished life, and yet here among the
mountains and hills is large body Of
people still In the pioneer stage of cul-
ture; o reaction against Anglo-Saxon
dominance of America, and yet every
state and city here prides itself on the
overwhelming Anglo-Saxon population
and the absence Of foreigners; reac-
tion against certain qualities Of the
mind and heart, such as sentiment, ro-
nance, chivalry, optimism, and yet
here these qualities survive.
Eyes, the South hesitates to join the
procession Of those who lead the reac-
ton. May not the South find the mid
die Of the road, the balance, the mod
Grafton, and In so doing reinforce those
who In other sections are fighting the
same battle?
"Nany people have passed from senti-
Snentalism to sophistication, from rose
Uink literature to dirty drab, from Pol
iyana optimism to the most depressing
Uessimism, from uplift to iconoclaSm,
from ediocrity to abnormal eccentricity,
from success as an idol to failure as
the chief glory Of man and art.
"arhe South may well serve the Ma
tion BY avoiding the extremes"
