In this country we people of the
South are supposed to be hot-bloods
ed, rash, combative. Perhaps we have
that reputation because as individu
als and collectively many of us have
proved our readiness to fight and to
give life and blood for ideals and
dreams and immaterial things, such
as honor and liberty. The right of
secession was an, ideal and the South
ern Confederacy was a dream, its
constitution an array of ideals fine
and beautiful.
Now we are called by the presi
dent, a man of the South and of this
state of Virginia, to support the high
est and broadest ideals and dreams
by use of the patience that is the
noblest and purest courage; by calm
purpose to do the most possible good
and be of the most possible use to
humanity and the world in the face
of gross outrage and wrong and
crime abhorrent to every instinct of
manhood and every thought of man
kind. Let us determine that in
this supreme and tremendous test
we will prove ourselves.
Sneering comment on President
Wilson's address at Philadelphia may
be expected. He will be accused of
uttering cheap and inane platitudes.
All great sentiment is platitude be
cause it expresses the oldest and
dearest aspirations of the human
race, and comes to us from the great
first cause, the Creator of all things
and all laws.
Wo may disregard these sneers as
products of small minds, of ignoble
materialism, of petty political pur
poses and base spite and malice. We
will be irritated by the arrogant and
insolent outgivings of men, who will
undertake to dictate to us our duties
and who, if unnaturalized, are toler
ated spies among us, and if natural
ized are merely traitors to our flag
and country.
Perhaps the most irritating trial
of our patience is the message from
the kaiser with its few cold words
of formal regret for tho murder of
our men, women and children and
its many words of self-righteous,
self-excusing and proclamation of
virtuous intent. It is like an as
sassin briefly condoling vith the be
reft family of his victim and hasten
ing to justify his crime.
In the South we remember that we
were blockaded and starved through
years and burned no cities, destroyed
no churches and slew no non-combatants.
General Sherman and Hun
ter have stood with us as represent
ing all that was bestial, cruel and
hateful in war, but even they re
spected sex and infancy. Millions
of men fought long campaigns in this
country. They were roused to fury
and hate by intense fury and hate
and conflict of will, and some of
them were newly freed black slaves.
But from 1861 to 18 65, with all the
ferocity of fighting on both ' sides,
there was no instance of a woman
outraged by a soldier or a baby
slaughtered. We were men and
fought like men among ourselves,
man against man.
The Confederate states steamer
Alabama ravaged the seas and de
stroyed a mighty merchant marine,
but she never caused the death of a
non-combatant of a neutral, orstruck
without full warning. With these
memories and traditions we can find
nothing but horror and detestation
for the man who smugly excuses
wholesale murder of the helpless.
Kaiser Wilhelm stands with us, as
he will live in history, with Alaric,
the Hun, as a ruthless destroyer;
with Nero, as a wanton incendiary;
with King Herod, of Judea, as ' a
fouteherer of babies; with Pontius
Pilate, in hypocritical washing of his
hands of innocent blood.
Yet patience and dignity, self
mastery and the vast courage of pa
tience constitute our task and our
duty. Coasting and threats are lor
the 'ostr breeds without lue law.
The most splendid loyalty for all,
foreign rnd native born, ? all sta
tions and fortunes, is loyalty to lofty
ideals and worldwide purpose.
That purpose, as told by the pres
ident, is not material gain for our
selves. It is not peace, dear as
peace is, or the saving of our lives
or our money. We have pioved well
our readiness to give both freely for
caThse and rights. It is that we may
be leady and in position when the
time comes to be the pacificator and
benefactor, the healer and the souroe
of justice and hope and comfort for
the stricken nations of the earth.
The ideal of the fathers of this
republic was that it should be the
place of refuge for all the oppressed.
The new and broader ideal is that we
may not only offer refuge, but carry
rescue.
No nobler or lovelier dream can
inhabit the soul of a stron? and
brave and high-thinking people. . We
have made many dreams realities. It
may be given us to realize this and
make it the most wqnderiul .achieve-.
,ment of all the history of. nations.

Proper Conception of Patriotism.
Patriotism, as we conceive it, con
sists at the present juncture not in
lustily howling for blood and ven
geance, or finding fault with the
agents we have selected for the
transaction of our national affairs
because they do not rush us precipi
tately into ill-considered action with
out weighing causes or consequences,
but in calm, temperate trust in
those responsible for American hon
or to do the wise and proper thing
at the appropriate time. We find in
some other 'newspapers happily
few in number and weak in influence
a different conception of patriot
ism. They deem this an opportune
occasion to make partisan capital
out of an appalling calamity that
may be fraught with still more fear
ful consequences if handled without
the irresistible firmness that is based
on the unshakable foundations of
right, justice and judgment. Fools
rush in where angels fear to tread.
There are fools in control of some
newspapers. When they seek par
tisan advantage in the situation
brought to a crisis by the sinking of
the Lusitania their folly smacks
strongly of villainy.x-Philadelphia

New Machine For Picking Cotton.
While the South has been concen
trating its entire attention at present
on the question of the marketing of
this year's cotton crop, a cotton man
ufacturer of Westbrook, Mass., has
been perfecting a machine which, If
what, is claimed for it is true, is of
more vital concern to the production
of this great staple than all the sub
sidies and bond issues that the fed
eral government could be induced to
grant. This is a cotton harvester,
recently demonstrated at Fairwold,
S. C, where it picked cotton suc
cessfully by sucking the lint out of
the bolls by compressed air, some
what on the order, apparently, of the
vacuum cleaner. Its economical val
ue has not been proved, and it is al
so said to have the defect of pick
ing dried leaves along with the cot
ton, but the inventor claims that this
objection will be overcome by the
employment of expert operators.

Our Greatest Chinese Center.
Keeping up with the remarkable
development of San Francisco since
the disaster of 1906, the Sunday
schools of the "New Chinatown"
have grown in numbers and develop
ed in methods until they compare
favorably in nearly all respects with
their American counterparts. This
quarter of San Francisco is the
greatest center of Chinese in Ameri
ca. Everything in its streets speaks
of progress and the adoption of
American customs. On one corner
of Stockton street is the Methodist
church. Near by is a modern hotel
and next to it the Chinese National
League of America. Across1 the
street is the Chinese Y. M. C. A.
Churches of practically all denomi
nations have religious directors in
the city for the Oriental work, and
the larger denominations have build
ings in the heart of Chinatown where
are located the church and Sunday
school rooms, night and day school
headquarters, dormitories and so
cial halls.

May Resort to Universal Service.
Addressing the house of lords
Thursday, Viscount Haldane, lord
high chancellor, intimated that the
British government was considering
the necessity of departing from the
voluntary system of military enlist
ments and resorting to universal ser
vice throughout the kingdom. For
the present, he said, the hands of the
war office were filled with the men
they possessed, but it might be nec
essary to reconsider the situation in
the light of the tremendous necessi
ties with which the nation was con
fronted. This appears to confirm the idea
prevalent that, while recruiting has
been satisfactory, the heavy fighting
in Flanders shows that many more
men will be required if victory is to
be attained.

Will you stick to-the laborious, back breaking method
of setting it by hand, when there is an easier way ?
By using a MASTERS PLANT SETTER you not
only save labor, time and prevent lame backs from stooping
but you set your plants nature's way every plant is rooted
by absorption.
One man with a Masters Plant Setter
can set, water and fertilize more plants
than three men can set by hand in one d y.
Plants are set, watered and fertilized all
in one operation.
These setters may
be used equally as well
for setting out toma-
toes, cabbage, cauli
flower, sweet potato
slips, etc.
If you have never
used one of these plant
ers call and let us show
you the principle of
