ELOQUENT ADDRESS
81 RET. C. E. M'GINTY
Delivered On Confederate
Memorial Day at Cass
ville Cemetery.
The sprint of man is moved as with
the ebb and flow of the tide, and “the
soul wins its victories as the sea wins
hers." The tides of the spirit are
known to us aLl —the great reactions,
the swinging hides of feeling, interest
and energy. These are from above,
coming down upon us, unlike the ped
estrian guides of common sense and
principle which direct us evenly on
our way. Emotions flood the soul for
s brief season, and though oftimes
they sweep out leaving a hollowness,
a vacancy at once depressing and dis
appointing, yet their conning means
She heightening of life all round, the
intensification of its powers in mo
ments when it “means intensely, and
means good.” Now this occasional
Quality of human nature is the expla
nation of the common delight in the
observance of special days. Birthday
and other anniversaries, the return of
friends from afar, the festivals com
memorating national and religious
events, are all of them times of spirit
ual rising tide. It is fitting ‘o give
them their opportunity, to set them
apart, and to forbid encroaching du
ties.
So we come today, under the auspi
ces of this Memorial Association and
under the inspiration of the presence
of our honored and much beloved vet
erans and under the inspiration of all
that is being done by the United
Daughters of the Conffsleracy arid
other organizations, to oommemorte
the services of gallant soldiers who
gave their ltv< willingly in the strug
gles of 1861-65.
"Hark! cur nation hears once more the
throb of muffled drum,
The dob ful dirge, the martia l le- 1
gions' measured tread;
Sees the feeble, broken ranks- of aging
heroes come
To strew love’s sweetest tokens o’er
their comrades dead **
Noble remnant of that valiant host to
whom belong J
Man's history's grandest theme and
fame’s subliirvest sontg!”
Our Memorial Day is a day of spec
ial spiritual! significance. Under the
spell of its noble sentiments, true pa- j
triotic zeal has been engendered and
promulgated during the years of the
past, half century, it is flttrhvg, there
fore, that we have attached a sac red
ness, a religious importance, to its
observance, and with bared and bowed
heads assemble to do honor to our
heroes of vaHor and renown.
It would seem that the Divine Crea
tor and Revealer had in mind, in his
dealings with his chosen people, to
teach us the religiousness of pa-trio-
ti&rn and the patriotism of religion. In
Old Testament times, love of Israel
'IiQVP of Israel’s Ood, and loyalty
lew nienju teyallty to ten?pie
vkoe. The prophet and seer could de
.jiouqee Israel's oootwios and even
piously work for tltrlr ov&rthiow, be
cause they were not merely the ene
mies of Judah or Jerusalem, hut also
the adversaries of the great Jehovah.
This religious patriotism has cluing to
the Jew, and in anew and larger
sense, has become tihe inheritance of
every nationality under the sun. Love
for the Fatherland has called forth
some of the noblest sentilnvewts. the
roost courageous devotion, and se f
torgetfwl loyalty the world has ever
known. One has but to read the Scot
tish. Chiefs In the days of Robert
Bruce -to appreciate the call of coun
try and of country’s God, answered by
every loyal Scotchman. And the same
is true in England. Ireland, Germany,
Switzerland, and the nations of the
earth. Even in our beloved state, our
hearts are thrilled as we sing of our
own red old hills,
“The red old hills of Georgia;
Where, where upon the faoe
Of earth is Freedom’s spirit
More bright in any race?
In Switzerland and Scotland
Each patriot breast it fills,
But sure it blazes brighter yet
Among our Georgia Mils!”
In song and story, the traditions
and customs, the aspirations and
hopes, the national glories and the
national defeats, have been chronicled
in terms expressive of national deities
from the days of ancient Greece to the
present.
The Jew could mark his entrance in
to the Canaan life of conquest and pos
session, an entrance into real national
existence, by the twelve stones taken
from the bed of the river of Jordan,
or mark an arucient battlefield of de
feat by an Ebemezer. a Stone of Help,
a “Hitherto hath the Lord helped us,”
•when the tide has turned again in the
war with the PhlHLstinea, and victory
and glory have covered the former
shame. Nations have marked iueir
Waterloo®, their Bunker Hills, and
their Gettysburgs, and we have in
scribed grave stones and erected mon
uments to our fallen leaders in the
j spirit ef thanksgiving to tfie great Je
j iiovah of Hosts, who through all otrr
I conflicts is shaping the destinies of
‘ men. These stones reared by men in
the distant iast, these monuments
i that bedeck the streets and parks and
I cemeteries of our cities in memory of
I our soldier dead, indicate our little
j ness and yet our greatness. They in
! dicate littleness because men are oon
j scious that time is fleeting and they
I soon wi'U be forgotten. They therefore
I desire to link the memories of thefir
1 life, their joy, their victory or their
I devotion with some permanent memor
! ial which in after years will record
■ where they suffered and conquered.

transience, also witnesses to the
greatness of man—that man is able to

0, that men might look on our monu
ments and be inspired to nobler liv
ing, to truest devotion and loyalty to
home, to country and to God.
As I come to reflect upon the char
: iicteristics of our honored dead, the
i men who lost and yet won for the
: Southern Confederacy, I am aware of
j true nobility of purpose and full dedi
cation to the ideals of our Southland.
Running through all our plans, pulsat
ing with the life-blood of every'patrio
tic sen and daughter of the Confeder
acy. anti then living on after surren
der, through turmoil of oppression and
reconstruction, one finds the ever
recurring, yea always abounding
strain of love of rights, love of home,
1 and love of God. These called forth
our parents and grand-parents to the
| suffering and to the sacrifice of an aw
j ful war, kept them battling against
| greater odds in men and money,
j steeVd their courage in the midst of
; hardship, and finally brought them
back, wounded and sore oppressed,
defeated and jet undaunted, crusher!
and yet victorious, to take up the
harder struggle for existence in a de
vastated and demoralized wilderness
of tyranny. With the passing of the
old veteran and with the exit from the
scenes of time of the mothers and
wives of the boys in gray-—women w ho
won as great victories in their places
at home as ever were won on the
fields of gore—we may forget the in
cidents of camp, of march, or of bat
tle which have inspired us and our
children through a generation, but the
historian must recount and the hearts
of men must recollect the deeds of
valor and fortitude of those who
fought for rights in the love of home
and in devotion to God.
“God of our Fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle-line,
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine,
Ix>rd God of hosts, be with us yet.
Lost we forget, lest we forget !”
“The tumult anl the shouting
The captains and the kings depart,
Still stands thine ancient sacrifice,
An humble and a contrite heart.
Ixtrd God of Hosts, be with us yet,
J,est we forget, lest we forget! ”
We come today to talk of the old in
the midst of the New South. We are h
New South; and yet a New South
which has sprung out of the Old. We
are the OLd South raised from the
dead in a glorious Easter morn. More
and mare we are coming into our
rightful 'place in the affairs of our
great nation. The uorth, the east and
the west and the south are needed to
make up a complete nation. The prin
ciples of the Old South, her loyalty
mid devotion, her traditions and cus
toms,, her matchless history, her de
feats ami her victories must forever
be comprised in the making of our
glorious union. The past is fixed; the
future is before ua Carrying in out

Today, while we revive the memor
ies of the past and pay tribute to

laud our own achievements and suc
cesses. may we not forget that by the
grace of God the old lines cf division
have fast been erased, that sectional
hatred has given place to brotherhood
and national pride. We are today a
united people, struggling for national
purity and power, glorying in our
greatness while ashamed of our weak

Slant* Your Liver Without Making
You Sick and Can Not Salivate.
Every druggist in town —your
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great fal!ing-off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson’s Liver Tone is
taking its place.
“Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson’s Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re
sults,” said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is person
ally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs 50
cents, and if it fails to give easy re
lief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
i harmless to both children and adults.
! Take a spoonful at night and wake
j up feeling fine, no biliousness, sick
1 headache, acid stomach or consti
pated bowels. It doesn’t gripe or
cause inconvenience all the next day
like violent calomel. Take a dose of
calomel today and tomorrow you
feel w r eak. sick and nauseated.
Don’t lose a day’s work! Take Dod
son's Liver Tone instead and fe<d
fine, full of vigor and ambition.

Tonic Rations For Spring Feeding
By Dr. A. M- Soule.
Among the causes which tend to run ddwn s "St \ < jptt •
season opens up is the constant eonsumptkm I Jig $ ti’ wint / Ifc £4
of dry, coarse fodder difficult to masticate anc fix thoroughly i itii tFs
saliva and digestive juices. It is also difficult > elaborate the natural
food constituents therefrom, and eliminate the waste materials from the
digestive tract. Hence, it is not surprising that iiMigestion should often
occur in the spring of the year. In fact, it probauly is more often met
with at this season than at any other time, and the dry fodders and
coarse hays used must be charged up with part of the responsibility for
this condition. There is also a tendency to irrational feeding, especially
during the winter months. Sometimes it seems to the live stock owner
that he can maintain his animals on coarse fodders alone; hence he fails
to provide a sufficient variety, not only of the roughage but of the con
centrated part of the ration to maintain an adequate amount of Mineral
matter and protein in the rations fed his animals. It has been shown
over and over again that this is a disastrous policy to pursue and will
ultimately result in getnng the animals “oft feed’’ and upset the diges
tion- I ! ■ I T— 1 1 ’
"'—i—~■ —• ' Feed Carefully In Spring
The opening up of spring accounts for a natural lassitude due te the
higher temperature which it brings, and the fact that the body has
not been accustomed to performing active and arduous labor. When hard
work is therefore suddenly imposed upon work stock, the system is sub
jected to an unusual strain, one, in fact, under which it frequently breaks
down. Very great care should be taken at this season, therefore, to see
that the ration is as laxative in character as possible, for nothing will
induce indigestion more quickly than the overloading of the alimentary
canal with coarse material which may not be eliminated readily from it.
By laxative and easily digested rations are meant those which contain
tonic grains like bran or oats. Since green feed will be lacking on many
farms, the roughage part of the ration may be made more palatable by
chopping it tip and moistening it with water containing sone salt. If the
coarse material thus cut up is allowed to stand for a few hoars befere it Is
fed, it softens very considerably, and will assist in providng the animal
with a substitute for some green feed.
Every man who owns live stock should endeavor to hive green feed
available as early in the spriag as practicable, and this can be accom
plished on most farms through the planting of some ceeal crop early
the previous autumn. Rye will answer very well for this purpose, and
alfalfa will be found even more satisfactory. These easily digested foods
tend to wash out the system and keep the secretions in good condition,
a matter of primary importance in keeping work stock in i vigorous state
of health. A little care and forethought will enable the* tverage farmer
to improve the roughage part of his ration very materially but it is well
to remember that green feed can not be substituted for dv feeds in the
maintenance of work stock, but the use of a small amount i of the highest
importance.
Many Mistakes Are Made
Aside from the roughage part of the ration one must feed a well-balanced
combination of concentrates. A ration of corn and fo.der alone, the
average ration fed, and judging by the amount of indigetion and other
ills from which our work stock sufter, is a mistake on its ace. Moreover, I
scientific investigation has shown it to be clearly wrong, aid when science
and practice both combine to prove a ration in error, it 'ould seem that
the thinking man would immediately abandon its use. As t matter of fact, 1
the ration of corn and fodder now used can be easily impdved and made
io meet the requirements of work stock to good advantage. On a farm ,
where "corn and oats are available, feed these in equal prts at the rate
of about twelve pounds per day for a 1,000-pound aninu. Add to this
combination two pounds of cotton seed meal and the concntrated part of
the ration will have been satisfactorily solved, and the ssential protein
provided. There is no reason why oats should not be alrilable on every
Southern farm, but if the farmer has fed up his supply, r has failed to
produce a sufficient amount of this very desirable eoncutrate, then he
can use corn and cotton seed meal. In the event he is fort-d to depend on
this ration he should combine twelve pounds of corn nal or fourteen
pounds of corn and cob meal with at least two pounds of etton seed meal.
There should of course, be a variation in the ration, Upending on the
size and weight of the animal and the labor performed. Liberal feeding
is necessary where hard work is being done, but, if there ar periods of time
when the animal stands in the stable and does but littlt the full ration
should not be fed for reasons which need not be repeated.
Mix Quantity At a Time
The farmer may think it troublesome to mix the va£js concentrates
in the proportions mentioned. This difficulty may be ealy obviated bv
mixing 1,200 pounds of corn meal with 200 pounds of cottc seed meal and
feeding at the rate of fourteen pounds per day. Corn and|tfs can be com
bined at the rate of 600 pounds of each and 200 pounds offstton seed meal.
It is not well to mix too large quantities of concentrates ap let them stand
for a considerable length of time, but rather to mix only fcough for a few
days in advance. The roughage part of the ration should 1 prepared fresh
each day.
Attention to these matters will certainly improve thefondition of the
live stock, minimize or eliminate digestive troubles, and pep the animals
in a vigorous condition where they can perform the M-est amount of
work with the least outlay of energy during the spring md early sum
mer.
