SOUTH IS FACING
WONDERFUL ERA

“The south is moulting her feath
ers for an epoch of prosperity now new
south.”
So declares C. Lee Cook pf Louis
ville, one of the most remarkable men
©of America, who is now on a visit
to New York. Most of us have found
it difficult enough to make headway
in the world with tfie possession of all
our faculties. This man, although he
has never been able to walk a step in
his life, and has to be wheeled about
in an extraordinarily cleverly devised
vehicle, designed by himself, has built
up a large and successful engineering
and manufacturing business and has
won distinction as a scholar, an orator,
a painter, authority on ancient nnd
modern history or constitutional law,
etc.
I ' once wrote a magazine article
about bis career and as I recall he re
ceived almost 10,000 letters, mostly
congratulating him on his successful
fight against such heavy odds.
