Pat?k, chairman, Anderson. Appointed 1913, Mrs. Patrick has carried on ip work of the Historical Department a capable manner, being reelected nee. At her suggestion the following laes were appointed to serve as her isistants in the four districts: I. Edisto?Mrs. Norman Bletch, harleston. II. Ridge?Mrs. U. R. Brooks, Combia. III. Pee Dee?Mrs. D. C. Scott, ingstree. IV. Piedmont?Mrs. R. P. Wright, ewberry. Mrs. Patrick recommends that each lapter have a Year Book, as they not i'y give the historical programs but * O 1/n eir/i imia no fomSISnw mmIU 1 bo OIlK I ?i\t CTCI JUIIC laiiuiiai Willi inv; nuucts to be discussed beforehand The best historical papers sent in r the different chapters are bound f gether and make "The South Caro- ' la Year Book," which is sent to the j istorian General for preservation. ^ A banner is Riven each year to the ( ivision making the best historical ] cord, and in 1015 South Carolina j on second place, Virginia winning by y narrow margin. This year 1016 South'Carolina wins e banner. The result was announced . the General Convention in Dallas 3 ? after the reports from all the Di visions had been filed, and was immed iately wired to Mrs. Patrick by ou: State President, Mrs. J. L. McWhir ter. EDUCATION?Mrs. Armida Moses Sumter, chairman. The members of the S. C. Division U. D. C., realize their privilege in giv ing to the descendants of the Confed crates those advantages in educatior that the fortunes of war prevented be ing their heritage. Most of the chap tors contribute to scholarships, and of fer prizes and medals, thus encourag ing the study of the War Between th< States. Miss Moses is deeply interested ir this work of education, and has made a most efficient chairman for severa years. The Division has three scholarships Winthrop College, valued at $162 S. C. University, valued at $165. Confederate Home College, valuei at $100. Besides there are three Districl scholarships and there are 12 chapter; who contribute to special chaptei scholarships. Surely there is no more importani work than lending a hand toward; helping a South Carolina Confederal girl equip herself for a self-supporting and useful life. CHILDREN'S CHAPTERS?Mrs J. S. Rhame, Charleston, chairman. This work was under the directior of Miss Frances Pemherton of Green wood for a number of years, and sh< was untiring in her efforts in the for mation of Children's Chapters, but she was forced to resign at the Aiken Con vention, and her mantle fell upon Mrs J. S. Rhame, who has worn it worthily giving of her time and strength thai the children may be taught the trutl of history. PUBLISHING HONOR ROLLS? Mrs. Agatha A. Woodson, Edgefield Mrs. woodson is enthusiastic anc she and her committee have done splendid work in collecting the name: of South Carolina soldiers and enroll ing them in order that their record.1 may be preserved for posterity. Mud has been done by the chapters, bui there is vastly more to be done. South Carolina gave to the service of the South 65,000 soldiers. Of thai number only 10,000 have been honorec by the Daughters of the Confederacj by having their names placed upor rolls of honor to be preserved in th< Confederate Museum in Richmond. ARLINGTON?Mrs. Thos. W. Xeitt Newberry, chairman. Mrs. Keitt and her co-workers have labored long and well to complete the fund necessary to liquidate the deb on Arlington monument. Arlingtor was the home of the Iiees?here Rob ert E. Lee and his wife, Mary Curtis spent their honeymoon, and here thej reared their seven children. Durinj the war this lovely home was used ai a hospital and the grounds for a bur ial ground. At the close of the war i was sold for taxes and bought in bj the United States' government anc used as a national cemetery. For years only a board with the single word "Rebel" marked the graves of the Confederate soldier, buried there. Now the section is kepi in perfect condition, the graves ar ranged in circles around a centra mound and on this mound the Daugh ters of the Confederacy have erectec their monument. Sir Moses Ezekie designed and executed this memoria and it is a masterpiece of art. "Since South Carolina was the firsl State to secede, fired the first gun, anc sent more men to the front in proportion to voters than any other State ir the Confederacy, it is fitting that she should lead in contributing to the building of the great memorial to the cause that she loved and fought anc bled for." Such is the appeal thai Mrs. Keitt makes to the Daughters. SHILOH?Miss Mary Poppenheim Charleston, chairman. Miss Poppenheim has proven hei ability to work by her enthusiasm anc flevntifin tn SViilr>V> This monument, the cornerstone o1 which has recently been laid, is t< mark the battlefield of Shiloh. neai Pittsburpr Landing on the Tennesse? river. There were 10,000 Confed crates killed or wounded in this battle 4,000 Confederate dead were buried ir one lone trench, and now lie unnamec in mother earth. Should this be so'; Can Southern women forpret suet heroism and leave it unrememberet ond unmarked? No, indeed. Confedorate heroism at Shiloh continues tc call for effort to complete the monu ment that the U. D. C. have undertak en to build. Miss Poppenheim is also chairrnar A the Committee on Education oi th< General Convention; in fact, she ii interested in ajl lines of U. D. C. of fort?the cause lies close to her heart The members of the S. C. Divisior appreciate her ability and her loyaltj and last year at the Aiken Conven tion a resolution introduced by Mrs C. E. Ciraham of Greenville was heart ily endorsed by all present nominat inj? Miss Poppenheim for the nex President General in 1917. NOTICE OF FINAL DISCHARGE State of South Carolina, County of Union.
