SOCIETY OF THE CINCINNATI.
The Washington M 0Uumen Fund-His oTy of
EHaa,

The Society of the Cincinnati of PennsylVa-
mia, which is composed mainly of the descend
arts aud representatives of officers of the war
of the Revolution, is still in existence. The
members have now ON hand a sum amounting 60
about $S3, ,0CO, which is the result of accumua-
lion on the jndieiOus investment of a compare
lively small amount collected many years ago
Tor the purpose of erecting monument to the
memory of General Washington This money
was originally subscribed aud contributed en-
tiTely through the eXertions of members of the
'Society Of the Cincinnati" with the condition
that IL was 10 be expended under the auspices of
that society.
The history of the fund held by the Society of
the Cincinnati is as follows;-A committee had
been appointed to make collections for the ob-
jeet above named, and on July 4, 1919, they re-
ported having received subscriptions amounting
TO S307976. In 1925 when General Lafayette
visited the United States, advantage was taken
of the patriotic excitement stirred up among
the people. and further subscription of S2529 IS
was collected.
InlSS2 an attempt was made by a committee of
citizens 10 raise further SUN by popular sub
scriptions of 81 each, but only small amount
was raised by this means, ana the proceeds,
with interest amounting To Sl7l 80, were finally
subscribed TO the fund of the Cincinnati. This
Is lhe whole amount originally raised by the
society, with the exception of subscription
ol S5o'5 90, made February g. 1870, by the grand
daughter OF Judge Peters, one of the original
trustees ot the fund. The total amount raised
by subscription as above. is thus shown to have
utSh Voo~v VI. Ahio Been carefully In
vested, and the interest reinvested and thus
compounded semi-annually, until il at present
amounts to over SS3, COO
The society do not think it wise to proceed
with the work of constructing the monument
until they have on hand at least 100000.

p. ~ am astonishsd that young 10

and cocoa, may be used without tng'pG

WOMAN,S RIGHTS.

One Of the first and most pernic-

seventy years no better rebaks has
been given to the clamors of the s'strong

his speech in opposition to the 10,
