Tickets 25 and 35 cents on sale at Yearby's drug Store, sections, one of the most striking chapters of American History is yet to be written and that chapter will be dedicated to Southern ora tors; for, as'the. home of great ora tors, the South can challenge any nation and any age. " The speaker paid a glowing trib ute to Henry Clay, "The Demos thenes of the Forest," of whom he said "thouarh he was not the scholar that most of our orators were, he could touch with impulsive power the keys of passion." Though my theme is of great orators no one can refer, however briefly, to the Revo lutionary period without mentioning the name of Washington no nobler figure ever stood in the forefront of a nation's history. The greatest tribute ever paid to anyone was that said of Washington, "though time shall be no more, the exact measure of the nation's progress in virtue and wisdom can be found in noting what veneration it pays the name o Washington. His pure heart and serene temper gave his words a force Demosthsnes might have envied." Of James Madison, Dr. Smith said that America has produced many more gifted orators but none more brilliant. John Randolph, of Virginia, he said, spans the two periods. Ran dolph was once opposed on the floor of Congress by a watch-maker. When Mr. Randolph got up he said that if the gentleman wanted to know anything about tactics let him come to him and if he wished to know anything about tick-ticks he would go to him. "In the second period Robert Y Hayne, who defeated Daniel Web ster on every point raised in the great debate; John C. Calhoun, whose ideas were so clear and whose language so plain that he made a path of light through every subject he discussed; Sargeant Smith Prentiss, 'whose style with its gleam of humor, and superstruc ture of purity and grace, I believe will stand out as the highest reach of popular oratory yet attained in this country;' and Henry Clay, 'who stands today as a most mag nificent figure in history;' Hayne, Calhoun, Prentiss and Clay, all were eulogized in a masterful effort. "When the true history, of the past has been written, as written it shall be, it will be found that these men did not juggle with words, merely to tickle the fancy of people. They were successors and worthy successors of him whom we have come together to-day to honor. It was their voice that sounded the trumpet call to freedom and redress. i ning tnis cnaiieuge to tne open pages of history that their voices were raised never in behalf of con 4 4 J scious wrong, never in defense ot known usurpation."
