WHITE, Pastor Second Baptist Church I M MEDIATELY at hand for South- I *m men is the necessity of choos- I ing between two sets of leaders. The negroes are also facing the same proposition with regards to their lead ers. On one side are those who ear nestly and for the most part sincere ly encourage and promote devotion to the negro Issue. On the other, those who lead away from that and encour age and promote devotion to other In terests. The two policies are at a point. My ple.'» to Southern young men Is that you will tak«* a firm stand with those who lead away from the negro question to the strengthening concerns of Southern life. .And let the stand be firm. You will be assailed and Irri tated, by prejudices on one hand and the provoking folly of the negroes on the other, but let your patriotism be sufficient for these things. Separating from the confusion, let us choose those lines of leadership which, if ’honored and followed, will lead the South to a noble future. And you will take note that they represent the ideals ami the spirit, as well ns the habit of the good days when the Southern people were powerful In In fluence. The industrial leader, the educational leader and the religious leader are the three who must lead us out of that which Is false into that which is true In our Southern life—business man, teacher and preacher. The Business Man. I place the business man—the Indus trial leader—foremost In the rank, be cause he has at his command the readiest motive, and Is least influenced by the discouragement of reactionary forces. Industrialism Is primarily the basis of organised society. ^In his address on the “Economic Interpretation of History," Professor Seligman, of Co lumbia university, says: •‘With every Improvement In the ma terial condition of the great mass of th* population, there will be an oppor tunity for the unfolding of the higher moral life, but not until the economic conditions of society become far more Ideal will the ethical development of the individual have a free field for lim itless progress. “The ethical Ideals of society which can alone bring about any lasting ad vance in civilization have been erect ed on and rendered possible by the solid foundations of material prosper ity." The activity of industrial leaders and the prominence of Industrial forces have a much more Important relation to patriotism than the super ficial critic allows. Immediately, the surest deliverance of Southern thought from unhealthy to healthy self-con sciousness is being promoted by the men who are pointing the way to In dustrial development. They are hav ing effect directly at those points of weakness suggested by the friendly critic I have mentioned. The!** mes sage Is, “Get too busy to mind criti cism. Don’t apologize; don’t explain. Get things done. Let them howl!” The center? of industrial life which dot the Southern landscape Increasing ly are centers of Independence in thought, quite the despair of nil sorts of demagoguery. The work they are doing in the very nature of the case overcome* Isolation and cures provin cialism. They are concerning the pub lic mind with the world relations of self interest. They are Introducing the South to the world and the world to the South. They are diverting atten tion to atrength-pfoducing interests. They are creating a sound basis for Southern pride. They are giving Southern tneh a reason for the faith that Is In them. They are teaching us to say the South Is the best—not Just because she Is the best—but because she has the best soil, advantages, re sources, opportunities for real achieve ment. and the happleut lives und homes, and a people equal to their tasks. 1 am an idealist. I abhor the boasts of sordid commercialism. But the man who has imagination, who Js charac teristically Southern in temperament, can And a feast for the soul in con templation of a heroic Industrialism especially If he will see far enough to note that it Is one of the mighty agen cies for our Intellectual and moral free dom. The boy who used to listen to father tell the story of the struggle of the civil war with burning cheeks, [ sorrowing on his pillow that he had not been bom earlier to share such i Klory. If he will look about, will find , the battle at his hand. No greater . mistake can be made, ns lias been so often ami so well urged by Richard Edmonds, whom I honor as a true Southern leader, than to hold that In dustrialism Is at war with the histori cal Ideals. The old South made os much of her Industrial opportunities as the new South has done with hers. : Before the break came In her prog- ! ress, the sun of Industrial advance was well up In the heavens. The men of liberty days honored the fact that In dustry was basal In the new republic. They were themselves fnr from being as sometimes pictured, the devotees of lordly leisure. George Washington’s brother nnd George Washington’s fath- | er were engaged in Iron mining. He was himself a civil engineer by pro fession. Thomas Jefferson was In the business of manufacturing nails. The battle field of King’s Mountain Is not far away from mines nnd bloomerles a hundred nnd fifty years old. The School Teacher. Equally as distinct In the leadership of the South to her great future is the group of men who nre Identified with education, under denominational, stnte and Individual auspices. They have seen the vision and are leading In a true path to better things. The Southern h ohei in sonm icspe- tM the loneliest of patriots.

The words of the school | teacher who lay dying were prophetic of a new order now being realised tn the South. He said. “When I nm dead I put a sword on my cofTIn.

Under that order Southern people will preserve and perpetuate tholr best tra il 11 11 ■« i ii.!. i Hi.ii order they wilt be led to take counsel not from that which | represents their fears, but from that which represents their force. 1 The Preacher. I Less distinct, perhaps, but more per- | vastve and commanding a vital post- tlon with reference to the true life of the South are those who stand for the I Christian principle, the religious Ideal. I The leadership of the religious teacher I nnd preacher tn the South Is Indispen sable to the industries and educational i forces. Harmonious progress Is Impos sible here without him. He is nsarest to the conscience of the people and he stands for an Idea and philosophy of life underlying the whole fabric of so- (ciety. An alliance of leadership be tween him nnd those who represent the Industrial and educational movements I have referred to would present an lr- resUtablo front against the things which are false and for, the things which ore true in Southern life. Benjamin Franklin was not in any sense a religious partisan, but he was wl»e enough to recognize the religious Idea In the foundation of the republic. He snld that the now constitution would crumble unless It was the re sult -of divine counsel and he called upon his colleagues In the Philadelphia convention to baptize it In prayer. In NMjjjf n;n >))•• j»i In ih- .. did not escape In the general arrest of Southern progress. He got shunted too. In that South of the day of great promise he wo* a powerful figure. A candid crltl6 speaking of conditions In the South prior to the war refers to the great place which the preachers held and says; “They almost ranged them selves with the giants; I had rather have known one of these men than a! the political and military heroes have since bred. The politician has ro, but Influence. For a century he waa by far our greatest man—-the man of the largest original power and of the strongest character." The preacher has lost hls public power to a great degree in the com mon chaos or Southern unsettlement. He Is himself In part to blame because he ht* been afraid to assert hls her! t&ge from hls apostolic ancestry. But the reason-of hls fear had its grounds. The politicians of our sorrowful period have resented hls approach to public Influence and the Idea has been suc cessfully grafted on to Southern pub- lie opinion that the fleid of politics Is worldly or of the devil; therefore, the preacher must keep well out of touch with It. The man In the South that the truth will set free at once Is the preacher. Hls message and meaning to our life aa a public man Is too Important to he lost. Patriotism must be defined In terms that Include him. He Is more than a passive subsidiary social nnd political asset. He has a gospel that saves both men and nations and hls priesthood Is a priesthood of the public In the vestibule of the caplto! of Georgia Is the statue of Benjamin Hill, and In the marble are cut these words, He who saves hls country saves all things, and all things saved shall bless him. Who lets his country die lets all things die and all things dying curse him. I have pondered that incom parable definition of patriotism. It was written by a Hmitherner and with ref- nee to the South In hls “Notes on »l" Situ tn ii |.i int« .1 in I s''.' Thu ■ Is no saving of one’s country so that nil things are saved If the religious principle Is omitted from Oie founda tions.

One of th-m rather bitterly exclaimed, “Oh. If 1 had al mighty power in this arm, I would build a levee here so high that the river could never get over it!" “I would not do that,” quietly responded th« other. “If I had almighty power In this arm, I would put it beneath our city and lift It up so high that the old Mississippi would roil harmlessly r* Its feet.” The safety, the progrops. the glory of the South does not lie In ths mouths of those who say, "Let the South alone," but rests In that nobler, braver clarion, “Lift the South tip. Develop her resources, educate her people, clennse her thought of perilous stuff and ennoble her moral intorfata.'’ « Mir 1"v• • :111■ I "iir dm v hH"itg to th* f "in p« "p]** ho I* i *' confused by many voices.

I N our youth, we were frequently regaled by the fascinating tale of the frantic old lady, who, with her puny strength, unceasingly plied her broom In an- atempt to sweep back the oncoming sea. The history of the rise of the human race from mental Inferiority, crass ignorance and primitive superstition, to Its present boasted degree of intel lectual freedom and spiritual power, records the constant presence, of the obstructionist, with hls Increasingly pitiful and futile attempt to hold back the oncoming tide of the eternal truth of God. And still is the theological old lady with us. Still with 1 her worn nnd bat tered broom of dogma does she keep up the frenzied struggle to hold back from the knowledge of men the bound less ocean of unceasing love. Driven from on position <o another by the persistent progress of theological thought, with falling strength, but un- dlmlntshed zeal, the unequal and los ing combat Is continued. Despairing appeals for help are made from time to time to those upon whom the light has fallen, and who have converted their brooms -Into paddles, with which to help the tide of truth to bear them safely on to the haven of righteous ness and peace; but those who have tasted the Joys of freedom In faith and love are not prone to return willingly to the slavery of fear and supersti tion, and so, though they would fain change their old friends from hlnder- ers into helpers, yet progres waits not long for the laggard, and the obstinate old lady must be lert to be engulfed In the kindly, Ufe-brlnglng flood she has so valiantly combatted. Up a toilsome, thorn-strewn way have men come to an ever-increasing knowledge of the character and attrib ute# of the one true God. Blood-be spattered and shriek-echoing has ever been the pathway of the pllgffins of truth. Ever, In the way of advance In theoolglcal thought, ha* stood the ob structionist. counting no method too cowardly, no weapon too cruel for use In besting back the patient seekars af ter light and truth. Ever, as an echo to the triumphant shout of the explorer upon the hilltop of a new revelation, has come the dismal warning of the prophet of gloom, “Forsake not the ancient landmarks." With some men and women, rever ence Is synonymous with stagnation. The tenacious love of the old absolute ly prevents unprejudiced examination of the new. This spurious reverence also begets a decidedly dwarfing and unhappy type of egotism. It leads men to conceive that they have taken-their own petty little theological tin cups SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON j Tht Gtntilo Woman'* Faith, Mark 7:24 30.

That night after sending the multitude away, and posing some time In prayer, Ho Walked on the wa ter to meet Hls dlsdphta who were rowing across the sea.- Scarcely had He reached the land when some whom He hod fed come to Him asking that He feed them again. This suggested the dlseoune record ed In John (:32-7I. Then came the Pharisees from Jerusalem, seeking to entangle Htm, and make It appear that He did not keep the law of Moses as recorded In Mat. xv, 1-t. After this He made another circuit more extended than any of the othe going as far west as the borders Ihenlrla, the vicinity of Tyre and 81- oon. This was the scene of our lesson. Hero He went Into a house that He might get rest, and be concealed from thoee who sought Him. "But He could not be hid.” Among those who sought him was s mother whoso daughter had »n unclean spirit, who did not bring her child, but esme alone. It waa not necessary that Jesus should have the Person present whom He would heat. All He had to do tvaa to speak the word. ~ This woman was Sryo-Phenlclsn; 'bat Is: a native of Fhenlcla that be- I mged to Syria. She was a heathen, one of those whom the Jews called bar barians or Greeks. She was a descend ant of the Syrian as distinguished from toe i'arthagenlan, a Semitic race. Mat thew tells us she was a Cannanltlih woman, one of the original Inhabitants or the land, descendant of Ham. Thus (?• represented the representatives of Hniii, and Shem by descent, and of Japheth by language and civilisation, and SO was a representative of a vast number of pagsm.

The ground of that accu.n tlon Mark himself gives us when he tells of those Pharisees that over and above all washings of cups and pots and brazen vessels, "when they come form the market, except they wash, they eat not.” Against that substitution of an out ward for an Inward purity against that thought that any human being made In the Image of God, waa In himself common or unclean, and capable of in fecting others with hls uncleanness, the divine teacher protested with more than wonted sternness. It waa after this utterance that "He arose and went Into the coast ot Tyre and Sldon." Was It not aa though He would testify by act as well as words, that He did not shirk from that con tact with a people whom the Pharisees regarded as accurssd and unclean— that It waa better to go to and from among such as these than to abide among a people who honored God with their lips, while out of their hgnrta flowed the full stream of evtl? And does not this supposition throw light on ths conduct of Jesi Christ, or sho might have hoard of them through others, so when the prophet came she would know’Him. come to Him, and plead for Hie as sistance.

This spurious reverence occasionally Induces men of apparent Intellectual power and attainments of scholarship to descend to the employment of ridi cule and misrepresentation to combat the freely admitted march of a great truth. Among lawyers end men of logic everywhere, the employment of such methods In lieu of argument Is always considered a tacit admission of a weak case. Progress has brought to us a new meaning for reverence. The truly rev erent mind Is the constantly seeking mind. In overy sincere why or where fore, sounds the keynote of n truly reverent heart. True reverence has for Its object truth alone, nnd this truth, embodied In God, teaches man that he wae put upon the earth to subdue tt nnd tn possess It, Intellectually and splrtually, ns well as physically. True revrence Jeads out the heart In Its searrh after Ood, und bids It, In this iwtlent search, to fearlessly and con fidently construct Its own theology,' re gardless of the blatant clamor of tradi tion nr the galling chnlns of supersti tion. True reverence teaches a man that the God who fashioned the hu man soul, long ere the human soul fashioned Bible or creed, speaks con stantly nnd comfortingly, In commen dation or In correction and admoni tion, even though the mind know no formal theology, nnd though the mem ory hotd.no Moses, no Isaiah, no Christ. It must have been the Inspiration of such .reverence as this which mused HI.
