cHAIRMEN OF COMMITTEES

Through the 1iberality of The Adver- tiser, the Alabama Division, U. D. G. has been given two columns of the Sunday edition, to be used as it's organ. We highly appreciate the privelege so kindly and periodically rendered and feel assured this enterprise meets with the warm appreciation of every Chapter in the State. The hearty cooperation of all members Is sought-these columns belong to the Chapters indi- vidually, and the success of this organ for Alabama Division work. will de- pend upon your newsy contributions. We greatly hope, that by this means each Chapter may be brought in nearer touch, inspired with greater zeal, and united in closer bonds of loyalty for the cause. We earnestly solicit for publication, the monthly programs of each Chapter, also accounts of all work, that is proposed or executed. These must be as concise as possible, since our space Is limited; and be forwarded promptly to Mrs. J. N. Thompson, Tuscumbia, the editor in charge of Chapter work. ...--
 All lines of work for which We were organized will receive full attention; but especially do we wish to give prominence to that of collecting for our columns, unwritten history of "Ths War Between the States" and thus dc much toward preserving the records md memorials of our State in the greatest struggle of modern times. Another work we must advocate is the ,se of accurate and impartial school AistOriesR4n Athe Accomplishment of

HISTORICAL.

We wish to embody in the historical department reports from the historians of the various chapters in addition to those from the Historical, Monument, and White House Committees. In the act of Legislature creating the Depart ment of Archives and History we ind a provision that the Department shall make special effort to collect data in reference to soldiers from Alabama in the war between the States" Here Is a work to be done by the .. D. c. historianS in conjunction with the State Department. Of the l22,000 sol record of about 22,0O0. Let us take as an important part of the years work the completion of these records. There are thirty-two Chapters in the State. representing twentyseven counties. Let each Chapter make earnest effort to secure the roster of the companies that went from ite own town and coun- ty, first, and then from the counties that have no Chapters. The Alabama Historical Society has published the records from the Adjutant Generals office. and by referring to the report of the Alabama History Commission for 1900 We may avoid waste of time and labor. and devote our energies to filling the blanks In that report.
 Mss Sallie Jones, our honorary life president. has already undertaken this work in Wilcox County and her re- port at the Eufaula convention shows what may De accomplished by persis- tent effort. If she. alone. can do so much. we may surely hope to complete the roll by the united research of the entire Division. Each passing year adds to the difficulty of this task, for in many instances the only roster is in the memory of the surviving sol diers; so we urge the immediate un- dertaking of this duty.
 All the objects for which we work are worthy our best efforts. and none more so than to preserve for future the name of each man in the perless troops Alabama gave to the

of the flood tide or the last of ths sbb tide ran strongly these ridGe1 were washed fiat and the sandbanks dried smooth and featureless. Such sand ridges, which were not to be cohfound- ed with the ordinary ripple of current mark on the surface of sand banks in streams. required for their produc- ton c swift current with sufficient depth of water, they originated from the condition of unstable equilibrium which existed when the lower layers of water were fully charged with sand in eddying suspension.
 Other photographs illustrated the geometricAl patterns of ripple-mark- ing produced by the waves. comprising parallel stripes. pArallelografns. and hsxagons, but not trtansles or penta- Eons. There were also pictures vf rip pIes in the clouds. the similarity of which to the sand ripples was well brought out when the negative of the photograph was viewed upside down. and of waves and ripples in snow taken by the lecturer in Canada. Tn the North Atlantic he measured some waves 70 feet high during a storm. These were exceptional. but waves of over 30 feet high were common, though the average height was probably not more than sfeet. He pointed out that 1t Is more important from the prac- tical points of view to know the height of what might be called the ordinary maximum wave than merely the aver age height of big and little waves alike, The discrepancy between these two ways of reckoning might amount to 100 per cent. The principal published records gave merely the average height which rarely exceeded 2s feet in ihe heaviest gales. This average. hoav. ever, was consistent with the occur renee eevry few minutes of wavea forty-five to fifty feet high, which were

Frozen Weeds, Seal Oil and Walrus
 Meat, Hide an Hair.

Meat, Hide an Hair. Youths Companion. A This is the way an Eskimo lady sits at the head of her table and dispenses hospitality, and these are the delicate items in her bill of fare. They were tested at first hand by W. H. Glider. when, in crossing Siberia at the north he had to accept native customs with what grace he might.
 No matter how early you may awaken in the morning. you VIII always find the ruistress of the house already up--that Is, her position has changed from reclining to sitting. But as soon as she observes that you gre really awake she hands you smaii piece of meat to steady your nerves until breakfast time.
 Then she goes into the next apart ment. which is merely an enclosure for keeping the does away from the stores. and after fifteen minutes of bounding and chopping returns with the break fast.
 4 large flat wooden tray Is placed on the floor and the landlady takes her position at one end in the attitude ele- gantly described as squatting. The family and their guests gather around the board on either side, lying flat on their stomachs with their heads towa-aS the breakfast and their feet out.
 The first course Is some frozen weeds, mixed with seal oil and eaten with small portions of fresh blubber, which the lady of the house cuts with large chopping knife.
 The next course is walrus meat. This is also cut up by the presiding lady and is served with no unstintinR hand. At this portion of the meal the one who can swallow the largest piece without chewing has the advantage and the only way to get even with him is to keep one piece in your mouth and two in your hand.
 After this joint has been thoroughly discussed there comes a large piece of walrus hide, which has a small por- ton of blubber attached to It and the hair still on the outside. It is about an inch thick and very tough, So that 1t Is impossible to affect 1t by chewing. It Is, therefore. cut into very small pieces by the hostess and finishes the mail Really, 1t is the most palatabls dish all.
