 Nashville
  LEFT HAPPY AND JOYOUS Camps Hardee and Jeff Davis We'll Represent ed-Sponsors and Maids of Honor
 Some of the Delegations.

Birmingham will be we'll and ably rep resented at Nashville this week. This is reunion week at the Centennial, and Bir- mingham has sent as fine delegation of men and women as ore will find in a years travel. That the delegation will reflect credit on the city they go to repre- sent there is no doubling.
 Camps Hardee and Jeff Davis sent large delegations, the former being larg- est. owing to it's being the oldest camp and having the largest roster. But if Camp Davis does not have as large a delegation it will make up the deficit in enthusiasm. Both camps were attended by their sponsors and attendants and the vourg ladies are as fair to look upon as any who will be seen on the grounds of the Centennial or around the camp fires nf the veterans who wore the gray.
 Miss Momie Terrell who has So grace 1ullv represented Camp Hardee as it's sponsor during the past, will be as grace ful during the reunion and rone present will be as happy to grasp the hands Of comrades of the Lost Cause" as she Miss Terrell is accompanied by Miss Ellie rrarreIl and Mrs. w. c. McMillan, the lat fer A $ chaperone Miss Ellie Terrell like Hhe sponsor, is a beautiful and charming young lady, and will assist with gracs Tn receiving the veterans of a cause lost, but rot forgotten" Mrs. MeMlilan IS graceful matron ard typical southfon.
 The costume worn by Miss Nome Ter 1,ell is one which will create much Ia yorable comment wherever seen, II pelnS "a conception of Redfern, the jeels brated New York milliner. The dress and jacket are bue, with gold trimmings, the bodice being of red. On her breast Miss Ter Il wears one of the beautiful badges or Camp Hardee The hat is a beautiful conception in millinery skill, being neat yet beautiful.
 The sponsor for Camp Jeff Davis is Miss Josie oxford, the charming young daugh- ter of Adjt. A c. Oxford. of Jeff Davis camp. She is accompanied by Miss Mag gie Oxford, another sweet young girl, who will add grace to her loveliness, and the twain will be as pretty pair cf young southern women as one might wish to look upon. Camp Jeff Days in choosing Miss Oxford as the first sponsor has acted wisely and well. The young lady Is yer satile and will accord all veterans a hearty welcome to the headquarters of Camp Jeff Davis.
