WRIGHT WINS SECOND PLACE IN SOUTHERN (Continued from Page One) synopsis and representative part of Wright's speech. His prin cipal head was America's oppor tunity for becoming, as a nation, a piece maker. Also construc tive characteristics of Peace and the inevitably destructive effects of War were discussed, which he drove home by striking and unusually forceful statistics. He spoke very lucidly of the un economical side and extreme expensiveness of War, and its demoralizing results and influen ces weilded upon humanity both from the standpoint of education and society. Progress is the result of com bined action was one of the ini tial facts advanced by Wright. By this first thought he showed that crystallization of opinion and concerted efforts are indes pensable for progress. He show ed that combined and crystal lized opinion was the sole means for America's independence, showing other striking exam ples of this kind. He also stated that :the blending of inter-na tional ideas is recent; that in the past each nation thought only in terms of itself and its own con fines. Modern inventions, scien tific environment, lightning-like facilities of communication, Wright pointed out, have been the preponderating influence in developing the inter-national brotherhood. The speaker mentioned that the world had before it the in stitution of war. Finally was advanced with vehement force the point of America's great opportunity and seemingly preordained misson of a Peacemaker. He showed by virtue of America's expansive territory or area, her geographi cal position, resources, her edu cational and religious superiority she is the leader or the world and must be a leader in the great progi'essive Peace Move ment.

"I shall never forget the de lightful years spent in Charles ton, and shall always treasure as a precious possession the friend ship of her people. During the last four strenuous years my circle of acquaintance has in cluded every county and section of the State, and everywhere a hearty welcome and a generous hospitality has been my portion. The educational message which I have been permitted to bear has met from trustees and people a response far exceeding my ex pectations. It is my privilege to count most of the county super intendents and teachers of the State as my personal friends, and I have met face to face thousands of the hundred thous and county children who have made up 'my school.' To all of these I leave my gratitude and my best wishes. . . . - "I am an optimist as to the future of South Carolina. In the past we have neglected great classes of our people, and have allowed them to grow up in ig norance and poverty; our ecc nomic thought has trailed 50 years behind the demands of our times. As a result, more than half of our people are landless and homeless. We are now en gaged in a vain attempt to cure social and economic diseases with political remedies. Within ten years our people will have learn ed to distiiiguish between the true physician seeking to cure their civic ills and the unprin cipled quack who carefully avoids the remedy and utilizes their pains for his personal profit. "In my new work I shall hope occasionally to revisit South Car olina, and to have the pri)ege of working with her educational forces. I shall hope also to have in my class room at Peabody, both in the summer school and during the year. many South Carolina teachers who are en-. deavoring to prepare themselves for greater efficiency."
