SOUTH SIDE ECHOES 35 voyagers and discoverers when they came to the southern coast of the Atlantic and found beautiful orange groves, waving forests, and fields green with corn.

They did not sit down to rest, as it were, but were up and doing with a cheerful and resolute heart. The reconstruction progressed rapidly. New inventions were made, new industries adopted and progress became general and rapid. This advancement is still continuing. Education is taking a great bound and is making greater progress than before. It is the awakening of the South in all its glory and joy. Phcenix- like, she rises and advances, never pausing or taking any step backward, but ever pursuing and ever achieving, she pushes onward. “A thing of beauty is a joy forever,” which can well be said of the Southland.
