U. D. C. Convention.

The decision reached by the U. D. c. convention in regard to continuing the work of preserving the first White House of the Confederacy as division work will be most gratifying to the people of Ala bama, who are In accord with this move ment. The preservation of this historic house is essentially the work of Alabama Daughters, and their cooperation Is necessary to carry on the work as it should be done.
 That the Daughters at their convention decided to continue to exert their efforts in behalf of this patriotic work will mold public opinion and create a still wider in- terest in this historic movement
 The Alabama women who are most identified with this particular work de- serve the cooperation of every man and woman in the state and their efforts to preserve to Alabama its most notably historic house should be rewarded at no short day.
 The Alabama Daughters will also con- tinue as special work the building of monuments on the battlefields.
 The election of state officers resulted as follows:
 President, Mrs L. Dowdell of Selma.
 First vice president, Mrs. Ellen Peter Brice of Tuscaloosa
 Second vice president, Mrs. w. H. Pru- ett of Clayton.
 Recording secretary, Mrs. R. A. Lee of Greenville.
 Reelected corresponding secretary, Mrs Belle Allen Ross, Opelika
 Treasurer, J. w. A. Sanford of Mont gomery.

the postal laws and regulations in rela- ton to the free delivery service. It is to the effect that during the heated terms postmasters may permit letter carriers to wear a neat shirtwaist or loose-ftting blouse. instead of coat and vest, the same to be made of light gray chambray, gingham or hght-gray cheviot, or other light-gray washable material, to be worn with turn-down collar, dark tie and a neat belt, all to be uniform at each ofice."
 There appears to be some diversity of opinion among the carriers as to the wearing of shirtwaists. Some hail the Postmaster Generals order as an un- mixed blessing, while others scorn the thought of appearing on the public streets in a garment which has always been distinctly feminine.
