and General conventions, the
former meeting next week in Co
lumbia, and the latter, in Novem
ber, in Washington, D. C. She
urged members to go to the state
meeting for at least one day.
The Treasurer’s report was a
real joy to everyone. Mrs. Charles
Boyd had paid the entire quota of
the chapter for the Memorial
Building to be in Richmond—$408.
A balance in the treasury of
$168.01.
Some time ago, the chapter had
promised to contribute $25.00 to
wards the cost of a much needed
piece of equipment at the hospital
when the entire amount was, in
sight, and this was ordered sent
to the hospital.
Many years* ago, this chapter
sponsored two chapters of Chil
dren of Confederacy but, for lack
of leaders, they were finally dis
banded. The State Director .has
been urging that this very im
portant work with the children be
revived. The two adult chapters
are joining forces with fine pros
pect for a large Children’s chapter
divided into groups according to
age. Mrs. Charles Boyd now be
