Jeans most noted poem, The High
Tide gives more distinction than
anything else except the fact that the
great Massachusetts city is it's name

From Boston the Ingelows moved to
Ipswich. 1t was there that Mrs. In

poet, for on opening the shutters of
the chiid's bedroom windows to keep
the sun out and the room cool she
found that her little daughter had GOV,

Poor little poet! she was brought up

to learn to dance, to go to theater or
race of any kind, or any other worldly
amusement; only to tea parties at
which serious subjects were discussed.
and which ended with supper and
prayers. when Jean grew up, writes
the author if the 'Recollections," she,
like other imaginative and romantic
girls, had her dreams of love, and
she had her lovers. and I think,
though she never said so, that one

 Following Mrs. Woodsons address came the report of Mrs. Read, who recalled so charmingly and wildly the scenes at the recent congress that the Daughters had little difficulty in picturing the now fa- nous incident when Mrs. Manning re- quested Mrs. Mclean to retire, roses and all, from the lower box in the theatre in which only ex-officers of the D. A. R. Society might be in full view. Mrs. Read recalled the interesting discussions and reports in regard to the Continental Hall and which have been seen in the press accounts. Mrs. Read expressed the opin- ion that the Daughters gave too much time in discussing trival matters. there by crowding out weighty questions. She told of the important events of each day and when she reached the day of days, election of officers, there was breath less silence throughout Mrs Dabney's drawing room.
 Mrs Read, in referring to the balloting mentioned that Mrs. Clarke of Mobile was appointed one of the tellers The ballots were counted over at the famous Aring- ton, and it was after o'clock in the morning before the result was known. Several of the Daughters who did the counting were unable to appear at the congress the next morning. But among the many incidents recalled by Mrs Read was the occasion when just after Mrs. Manning had been presented with the gold loving cup, a slight discussion arose over ballot of one of the officers.
 She had neglected to vote and the bal lot box was closed, or there was some other technicality that was suffiing the Daughters. It was then that Mrs. Smith, Alabama's regent, with characteristic gracefulness, suggested that the ballot be cast in the loving cup, which was no sooner said than done. Mrs. Reads re- port was most interesting and greatly en- joyed by the Daughters. Mrs. Donnelly of Cincinnati and Miss Kittie Boggs of Augusta, Ga, who were guests at the meeting, were asked to tell something of the work of their chapters, both Mrs Donnelly and Miss Boggs dwelt upon the patriotic work of the Ohio and Georgia Daughters.
 At the meeting yesterday Mrs A. G. Smith was elected secretary and Mrs. A. T. Henley historian

D. A. R. Meeting.

One of the largest and most enthusias- tic meetings in the history of General Sumpter Chapter D. A. Rs was held yesterday at the residence of Mrs. J. D. Dabney, the occasion being marked by the installation of the new chapter re- gent, Mrs l.. G. Woodson and by the re- ports of the recent continental congress The report was made by Mrs. Charles Read. who went as a delegate from Gen eral Sumpter Chapter. Mrs. J. Morgan Smith, the State regent, who was also expected to address the chapter, was de- tained by illness, and there was universal disappointment on the part of the mem bers that Mrs Smith could not be pres ent at the meeting and speak of the con- gress. The aftermath is always so inter- esting, and in view of the press accounts of the recent congress the Daughters an- ticipated with more than ordinary inter est-almost excitement, one might say the discussions of their representatives a this distinguished gathering.
 The meeting included the usual busi- ness routine, and after this the Daugh- ters listened to the beautiful address of Mrs. Woodson. their new regent, who at the conclusion of her address was warm ly applauded.
 ''I have learned from experience" said Mrs. Woodson, that the honor derived from an official position is an honor which means great responsibility and much work. In assuming the regency of thls chapter I am fully impressed with the fact that I have been paid a very high compliment and that my bouquet Is not without thorns; but with the earnest help of each member and the enthusiasm
