OCTOBER MEETING OF
ABBEVILLE CHAPTER U. D. C.
The October meeting of Abbeville
Chapter U. D. C. on Tuesday afternoon
at the home of Mrs. C. C. Gambrell,
began a new season of work
(with an enthusiasm, which bespeaks
much for the coming months. Reports
from officers and commitees
showed the chapter in splendid condition,
and the addition of new members
sufficient to bring the membership
to seventy, thus giving the chapiter
three delegates to the state convention,
makes it one of the most influential
in the South Carolina Division.

I Camp Jackson next week, and a committee
was appointed to arrange for
^n exchange in November. The most
important business of the meeting
was in connection with compiling the
records of the descendants of Confederate
Veterans, who served in the
World War. A number of records
had been received, and a committee
was appointed to complete the work,
as soon as possible.
Mrs. J. F. Bradley and Mrs. L. C.
Parker were appointed delegates to

Fla., in November.
After all business was concluded,
the chapter enjoyed one of the most
delightful social hours that has ever
been arranged for a meeting. Mrs.
Gambrell had decorated her rooms
with service flags belonging to the
members, and against this beautiful
background were placed the pictures
of Confederate soldiers, who fought
for States Rights, and of the "chipsofF-the-old-block,"
who fought for
Self-determination.
Instead of the usual program of
Confederate history, the records of
the soldiers of the World War, collected
so far were read. Some were
records of men, who left wife and
children at home, and some were
mere boys, fresh from the school
room; the Army, the Navy and the
ir ?? -
marines, were ail represented, and
every record was a splendid one, as
befitted the descendant of a Confederate
soldier. At the close of the
afternoon, Mrs. Gambrell served a
delicious salad course with coffee.
This was one of the largest meetings
the chapter has ever had, as well
as one of the most pleasant. I

MARIE MORISSEY, CONTRALTO
To Sing In Abbeville, Thursday, Oct
30tb.
Anouncement is made to Abbevill<
music lovers that Miss Marie Moris
sey will give a concert in Abbeville
Thursday night, October 30, at th<
Opero House.
Marie Morissey is one of our rea
American singers. Her family ha
nnunfrv as loner as any
UCCII Alt WIWU Vv if ?? w body
else's! And she has had a strict
ly American education. She is a pu
pil of Dudley Buck under whom sh.
studied for four years. She prove
in convincing fashion that a singe
can reach a high degree of develop
mer.t under American futelae*
Miss Morrisey has made a sp-jcui.t;
o* songs sung in English. And tha
moant studying English diction witl
j special care, for one of the reason
j English is not so melodious as som
j other languages, in Miss Morrisey'
opinion, is because we are careless ii
our speech. Mr. Dudley Buck di<
! more than teach Miss Morrisey ho*
jto use her voice correctly. He als<
j taught her to treat her own languag
"respectfully," as she herself puts i1
j "The English language may not b
jSO soft and melodious as some othe
languages," declared Miss Morrisej
"but it suits irie"?and she says thi
with the pride befitting a true daugh
ter of the American Revolution
which she is.
Residents of Abbeville will agre
with Miss Morrisey when they hea
her sing some of the American songs
She is particularly enthusiastic abou
songs by American composers, an
no recital of hers is complete with
out some of them.
Next week's concert promises t
be a splendid addition to the list o
treats the music "fans" of Abbevill
have enjoyed in the past. Miss Moi
hsey's voice is finer than ever,?>
rich, sweet contralto. A nd the loni
and arduous training it has receive'
in the concerts Miss Morrisey ha
given to the soldiers in hospitals an
camps, has added a new power to he
voice.
Thursday's concert will be an invi
tation affair, but musically incline
Abbeville is sure to be fully repre
sented.
