Origin and Meaning of the U. D. C.
A Paper Read by Miss Nettie Marshall at a Recent Meeting of U. D. C.
“W r e light on ruined Shrines our
sacred fires. ••
The United Daughters of the
federacy is one of the most unique
orgahizations in the annals o^ the
y world. A great section, of a great
, collecting and
country engaged in parallel pre¬
serving a history without a
among nations.
It is one of the largest organiza¬
tions of women in the United States,
and is still growing.
The objects of the United Daugh¬
ters of the Confederacy as stated in
the Constitution of the society,
social, literary, benevolent, historical
and memorial and without any
litical significations whatever, The
duties are manifold and in the phrase¬
ology of the Constitution are to ful¬
fill the duties of charity to survivors
of the War Between the States, and
those dependent on them. To collect
and preserve the material for a
ful history of the war. To
historic places of the Confederacy;
record the part taken by Southern
women, as well in untiring efforts
after the war in reconstruction
the Sou th, as in patient
of hardship and patriotic devotion
during the struggle. To honor
memory of those who served
those who fell in the service of
Confederate States, and to
the ties of friendship among
bers of the society.
The organization now has
chapters and more than 80,000
bers, with one chapter in Mexico
one in France.
To Mrs. M. C. Goodlett, a
ble and remarkable woman,
,-the honor of the inspiration and
that united in a single bod;, t ie
W, ly scattered workers .n a we
and sacred cause.
The History of t e ni e< a

were immediately taken by " er ™
others looking to that en . m '
ing of the various women’s
zations of the Southern states
held in Nashville in Sept. 1894
from this gathering grew the
did organization known as the
ed Daughters of the

speech at Dallas, Texas paid

This was the task which the
ters of the Confederacy laid upon
their hearts and to which they
stretched out their hands.
Who can contemplate the project
or behold the triumphant result,
without placing an amaranthine
crown upon the snowy brows of the
Daughters of Dixie ?
I challenge the w-orld to bring out
the annals of the past a story like
theirs—of an organization so effi¬
cient, of a purpose so lofty, of a res¬
olution so persistent, of a determina¬
tion so invincible, of a devotion so
unselfish, of a spirit so drainless, and
of a victory so signal.
When all the South has brought
first a votive offering o ffrank-in

Politics held high carnival in some
of the class elections last week,

the smoke of battle was cleared away
there were several in the low grounds

arms proved most popular owing to
the th.t one fifth of the neve
nue earned for the organisation

I A Reply to Dr. C. B. Wilmer
Ily W. C. CARTER
J The Savior said to His disciples,
“Behold ’ I send you forth as sheep in
the mid t of wolves; be ye therefore
wlse as ser P en ts, ana narmiess as „
doves." These Christian qualifications j
( essential to the spiritual
are success,
|w.,„r. of the disciple, of Chris.,
their triumph as members of His
body, the evangelization of the
world and the prepapration, on the
Part of the Bride, for her approaching
marriage. Opposition to Christianity
was at that time very marked, and
opposition has, as the centuries
lost not one iota of its cun
its unscrupulous intrigue, and
malignancy of spirit. “Little children,
it is the last time, and as ye have
heard that antichrist shall come, even
now are there many antichrists;

fables. These words, , as recorded , , , by
St. Paul, are strikingly fulfilled . . by i
infidels, . , agnostics .. and , atheists ,, . , who ,

no
for „ TT IDs .,, church, none for . His TT . people , 1
,
and , would ,, substitute Evolution for i
Christianity, and “vain jangling” for
the written Word. ‘Desiring to be
teachers of the law; understanding
neither what they say, nor whereof
they affirm . 1 The command to each
discfyle of Christ is, “But watch thou
in all things, endure afflictions, do
the work of an evangelist, make full
proof of thy ministry.”
Now, my dear Dr. Wilmer, my
companion in tribulation, Fundamen¬
talists do not believe in hypothetical
Evolution; but they believe in the
Old Testament and in the New Tes-\
tament, the Divine Apocalypse as
revealed by the Head of the church.
In discussing “the first creation”,
say: “I do ask, do the Deity of
our Lord and the Atonement depend
on taking that story literally,” Now
give me, Brother Wilmer, your right
hand of Christian fellowship, and let
me read one short verse to you from
the livin P Word, the Word you so
delight to honor. “Him that is tfeak
the faith receive ye, but not to
doubtful disputations.” “The Deity
of Christ is inherent, and is not af
Dieted by belief or unbelief. Christ
can not, by any act of His creatures,
be degraded, dethroned, or deprived
of an y of Dis attributes. As to the
“Atonement,” the same process of
reasoning applies to it. Neither be
lief nor unb elief affects its efficacy.
You say: “Fundamentalists be
lieve in the Bible as literally inter
preted and as including certain state
ments about God and Nature which
belong in the realm covered now by
physical science.” Your definition of
what Fundamentalists believe is on¬
tirely too narrow. Fundamentalists
know that there are many passages
of Scripture that are to be construed
When the Bible says:
In the beginning . . God created the
hea ™ n and the earth,” Fundament¬
