Taylor, which insures to the Alabama Division a delightful convention in the hospitable little city of Demopolis on the second Tuesday in May, 19Oe: Demopolis, Jan. 2, 1902.
 My Dear Mrs. Dowdell-Your letter was received last night, and this morning our Chapter held a meeting.
 The Marengo Rifles Chapter renew most cordially our invitation extended to the Alabama Division, U. D. C., to enter tain the convention in May. We deplore the fact that circumstances should de- prive Greensboro of a pleasure we cov- eted for ourselves, but her loss is our gain, and We congratulate Demopolis on her good fortune in securing the conven- tion. Individually, ever since the delight fut days spent in Opelika, I have longed for the time to come when our people could enjoy the honor of entertaining the noble women who compose the Alabama Division, U. D. c. With all the best wishes for the continued success of our Division, and with kind regards to you, l ams Very sincerely yours.
 Maggie M. Taylor.
 We gladly note that the birthday of Gen. Robert E. Lee was beautifully cele- brated with patriotic exercises in almost every city and town where there exists a Chapter of the Daughters of the Con- federacy in our State and most of the Southern States.
 These are excellent object lessons of pa- triotism to the youth of our Southland. and occasions of great pleasure to the veterans and noble women of the Con- federacy.
 We heartily commend the Kentucky Daughters of the Confederacy in their enorts to stop the playing of "Uncle Toms Cabin" upon the stage, within their State. The Daughters of the Con federacy Of every Southern State should take similar action. We bid the true Southern spirit of these noble Kentuckv women God speed.
 The R. D. Rodes Chapter at Tusca- loosa presented about fifty or sixty Crosses of Honor to Confederate Veterans at the court house on Saturday, January 18th.
 The rules were read by the Registrar. Mrs. J. C. Harrison. Prayer by Rev. l.. O. Dawson. Mrs. Helen Plane of Georgia, honorary life president of the Georgia Division and also of the Atlanta Chapter who was amongst the earliest

 Simultaneously with work written up- on the civil history of the Confederacy by one of the survivors of it's govern ment. Dr. J. L. M. Curry. comes one from Professor Schwab. who occupies the chair of political economy at Yale. (The Con- federate State of America, 1S61-65. A Fi- nanc1al and Industrial History of the South During the Civil War. By John Christopher Schwab.)
 The former. written from the stand uoint Of most intimate acquaintance with tne subject arising from an inner vie@ of off1cial life. IS in some respects the
 passionate production of the special pleader. and possesses a peculiar value for that very reason. among others. The volume from the Yale professor, with which We are now concerned. Is, on the contrary. the work of a special student of history. as dispassionate as it is pos sible for a book to be. critical in many ton to the so-called "scientific' school of history. Thus the two works coming together from the press. widely variant In method, may be considered in de- gree complimentary.
 The finances of the North during the rebellion were written long ago, but un- til the appearance of this work there was absolutely nothing extant upon those of the South save casual and fragmentary chronclings appearing in works for the most part devoted to the field events of the war; in such semi-autobiographic works as those of Alexander H. Stephens and others; the historical volumes of Pollard and other Southern writers. the
 fles of newspapers published in the South. and more important than all other sources. though not affording so much material as might be expected, the official Records of the Confederate government.
 From the outset. when the Confederate Congress was confronted with the prob lem of providing ways and means to carry on the war, the author notes that in keeping with the practice during most wars, the levying of taxes as a method of securing funds was pushed into the background, and the main reli- ance was placed on public loans. Early in 1861 the Confederate Congress did in fact accept several loans, half a million each. from Alabama and Louisiana the latter representing the amount of United States funds seized by the State government-seVeral lesser amounts from other States and donations from indi- viduals corporations and churches, con- sisting of money, food clothing. But all of these combined made only a small showing compared with the total amount raised by loans. The first of these, $l5,- GOO, GOO in bonds secured for the govern ment a large part of the available specie for the purchase of supplies A further issue of 5O.O00. 900 in bonds was largely subscribed for in cotton and other pro- duce which opened the way for the gov ernment's later policy of hypothecating the cotton at home and abroad by issuing cotton bonds, This loan was in part paid in treasury notes. large issues of which were made.

Mrs. Plane gave a most interesting talk and was frequently applauted. The President also gave a talk. The Crosses were presented to the Veterans by the First Vice-President, Mrs. w. c.

 Music added to the occasion and the stand was decorated with the flags and colors. General Lees picture and Gen. eral R. E. Rodes were in a conspicous position.

 General Robert E. Lees birthday, the cherished anniversary of the Souths matchless leader was observed on Sat- urday, 18th, at College Hall by the Owen kenan McLemore" Chapter of the U. D. C.
 The Hall was beautifully decorated in Confederate flags, palms. red and white bunting, and gracefully draped over the picture of our beloved chieftain was the handsome silk Chapter flag.
 The exercises were opened by Rev. w. Faust invoking Gods blessing upon all. Dr. J. l.. Thompson's address on Lees Moral and Religious Life'' was a spark ling gem of the most elegant, .and purest diction, while it breathed of Lees ex- alted patriotism, through all shone his sincere piety like halo of light whose beneficient rays brightened all with whom it came in contact.

The Work of the Children of th'
 Confectionery.

The Work of the Children of the
 Confectionery.
 The work of the Children of the Con- federacy is one of vast importance, for will not the teaching of history to the young minds be of untold value in the training for citizenship? It is through the children of the Confederacy we hope to perpetuate the history of the past, and cherish fond memories of the heroes, whose names are synonyms Of true great ness, and whose glorious achievements in defense of our Southland will live in matchless glory and echo through the eternal years down to the Hast syllable of recorded time." Truly has it been said. "A nation forgetful, is a nation de- generate" The heart of the youth, train- cd through history to honor and revere the heroes who fought with unparalleled bravery in defence of the "nation that rose so white and fair and fell so free of crime" will thrill with pride as he enters the battle of life. To the Daugh- ters of the Confederacy belongs the train ing of the Children Of the Confederacy. How many Chapters of the Children of the Confederacy are there in Alabama? These columns are open to the directors of the Children's Chapters, and our am bition inspires us to plead for more Chap ters in the Alabama Division, that we may be awake to the sense of our duty, as in our sister States. The President asks that she be informed of the work of the children wherever there may be a Chapter in our State. Duty demands of us this training of the Children of the Confederacy. Let them be heard from in our State conventions that we may come in closer touch with their work; we need them as auxiliaries to every Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy.
 The Children of the Confederacy should take a conspicuous part in the celebration of Robert E. Lees birthday, Memorial Day and the birthday of Jefferson Davis. We train heroes when We teach children the love of heroic memories.
 The James D. Webb Chapter, at Greens. boro, found that an accumulation of un- avoidabie circumstances would necessi- tate withdrawing the invitation so cor dially extended the Alabama Division, U. D. C., to hold the convention of 1902 fin Greensboro, tho guests of the James D. Webb Chapter. The President of the Division was notified with expressions of deepest regret, and the hope that the pleasure was only a deferred one to this Chapter. This will be a pleasant anti cipation for the future to the Alabama Division.
