D. j C., was held at tho home of Mrs. Boy kin Khame, with Mrs. VV. F. N>tVles and Mrs. A. A. Heasonover associate hostesses, on the first Monday in Match. The ritual prayer, a very beautiful and inspiring thing, repeated by the president, was followed by tho Cord's prayer in unison. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. The treasurer, Mrs. Heasonover, reported that the organization has fifty paid up members and she also gave the various disbursements. The chapter, later in the spring, will be called on to participate in-a Washington Bi-Ccntennial celebration given by the county. For this Mrs. Zemp appointed the following ladies to represent- the chapter and lend their aid in getting up the program: Mrs. E. B. Mobley, Mrs. R. E. Chewning and Mrs. J. H. Burns. A very earnest and insistent plea was made by Mrs. E. E. Sill that the U. D. C. wear their chapter badges to meetings and elsewhere where their status as Daughters of the Confederacy should be evident. She had brought a number of badges with her and sold quite a few. Mrs. John Cantey read a most in-: teresting article on Wade Hampton, his military record and personal achievements. Mrs. W. M. Shannon read from a paper written years ago by Mrs. Anna Calhoun Ancrum, on the life and character of * John C. Calhoun. The fact that for many years, until her death, Mrs. Ancrum was a valued member of this chapter made her remarks concerning her illustrious kinsman doubly interesting. Mrs. Charles V. Salmo.nd played two delightful piano solos, compositions of a South Carolina musician. I It being "Carolina Day" Mrs. Salmond played the accompaniment while the ladies sang "Ciirolina" in unison. The hostesses served a most delightful salad course with coffee, and it was a large and most interesting meeting altogether. I !

Wheat, at Magazine, Ark., 44 years ago that had never reached its destination.
