Dr. Biggers Huckleberry Cordial DR. KNOPF WILL SPEAK x . ON “GREAT WHITE PLAGUE’ The addre.e of Dr. 8. A. Knopf, the relebrated specialist on tuberculosis, who will speak tt the Grand Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, I. bflnf awaited with great Interest by many Atlantan*, who are making a special study of the "great white’ plague” and methods tor Its prevention. The public Is Invited to hear the address of Dr. Knopf and It Is expected that the Grand will be filled. Secretary Walter G. Cooper, ,of the Chamber of Commerce, has this to say of Dr. Knopf and his work: "The white plague la rapidly moving South. It might be more neenrate to tay that It has already cdm*. The death rat* from this cause Is far gre er In the South than tt Is In the Nor ern cities, which w* used to look upon as the home of consumption. "And yet people afflicted with the dread disease are constantly coming South for their health. This Is one reason why the mortality from con' sumption Is so high In Southern cities. The victims come South to die. and, dying, raise our death rat* from this cause. "But there Is another and more Im portant reason for the high death rate. We of the South havik not begun to fight the dlseaao and the Eastern and Northern cltle* have. They have adopted stringent Isws to prevent the spread of tuberculosis. Preventive measures have their effect after so long a time. Those who are not cured will die and If new- casos do not aprlng up the plague will at length die out. "But this Is not all. There le such a thing aa curing the disease If It Is taken In time. The cure consist* principally of pure air and nutritious diet, prog ress Is belnr mads along the line of 'curative treatment, but perhaps the greatest progress Is In methods of pro tection for the masees. What they need most Is Information and fortu nately printers' Ink Is always available HOOPER ALEXANDER SPEAKS AT UNVEILING OF SHAFT TO HEROES OF CONFEDERACY Pays Tribute to Mem ory of Men Who Wore Gray. The principal address of the occasion of the unveiling of the monument of the Confederate dead at Decatur Sat urday morning was delivered by Hon. Hooper Alexander, a member of the legislature from DeKalb county, and a well known orator. He said, In part: "Within my memory there was a time when few public men at the North spoke of the South except In terms of unstinted bitterness. In that time none wax more bitter against us than George F. Hoar, of Massachusetts. But there cam* to him a day when the length' enlng shadows *>f declining year* warn, ed him to prepare for posterity aome testimonial of his life, and the mellow ing Influence of age softened In him the bitterness of tho partisan till It was lost In the Justice of the man. In that book which he recently left be hind he wrote these words: 'Altho my life, politically and per sonally, has been a life of almost con stant strife with the leaders of nur Southern people, yet, as I grow older, I have learned, not only to respect and esteem, but to love the great qualities Which belong to my fellow dtlxens of the Southern states. They are a noble race. We may well take pattern from thorn In some of the great virtues which make up the strength aa they make the glory of free states. Their love of borne; their delicate sense nf honor: their constancy which can abide by an opin ion or a purpose or an Interest of their states, thru ndverslty and thru pros perity, thru the year* and thru the generations, are things by which the people of the North may take a les son. And there Is another thing—cov etousness. corruption, the low tempta tion of money hae not yet found any place In our Southern politics.’ "Ordinarily the defeated of this world may look only to their contem poraries for the testimony that shall vindicate their motive* to future ages. Nor. Indeed, have our people neglected this high duty: for no sooner did the smoke of battle lift, than they began, out of the pitiful resources of their poverty, to set the shaft of storied marble In the face of landscapes where only houseless chimneys bore desolate witness \o hitman fortitude. ‘ ’ 1 Inscription. "But thls”<p?ll day. after 43 years have heap busy af the task of gather ing home'the son* and daughters who have *o loved her well, we set here on this bill today a shaft of granite rock, dug front the old red soil of Geor gia and In the face of It with chisels It Is graven (hat ■. :a , Another generation bears witness To the Future That these men were of a covanant- keeplng rags, who held fast to the faith as it was given by the fathers of the republic.’.

Beginning at Jamestown In 1(07, and extending to Savannah In 1711. thirteen separate companies of adventurous pioneers of our blood founded commonwealth* along the At lantic eeaboard, entirely disconnected with each other except by the ties of a common blood and allegiance to a com mon head. "Massachusetts.

"Let scholars wrangle as they may, touching the right or wrong of these great deeds. 1 speak not how of ethics; but ef facts. The American colonies held their titles by.nft huckstering* of chartered grants from effete monarch*. They took them by the robust title of their w ill and held them by the strength of dauntless courage nnd high purpose, each for Itself.

There can therefore be pa doubt that the second article of their stated faith Is established truth. "The constitution le the evidence of the covenant.' "The third article states that, 'ths people of the states are subject to no power except as they have agreed.' "The proof of It Is plain. In the orig inal article* of union It was solemnly covenanted by our fathers In the ver forefront of ths compact that 'eacl state retains Its sovereignty, freedom and Independence, and every pow riadlctlon and right which Is i . . this confederation expressly delegated to the Unltsd States In congress assem bled.’ "And, aa tho to make assurance dou bly sure, they wrote Into tne present constitution this solemn covenant; “'The power* not deltgated to ths United States by ths Constitution, nor prohibited by It to ths states, are re served to the states respectively or to the people.'
