Usual Discussion Among
 the Daughters. Mrs. A. L. Dowdell Renders Report for Alabama and Succeeds in Keeping to the Time Limit
 of Ten Minutes.
By Mrs. J. M. de Cottes.


 New Orleans, La, Nov, B. -tSpecial)- At the second session of the ninth annual convention of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. the reading of the State Division reports was the first feature, and the first read was that of Mrs. A.. l.. Dowdell, President of the Alabama Division. She told of the presentation of the Emma Sansom picture to Alabama i; of the work for the Shiloh monument; of the donation of $1.000 to the Soldier s Home. and reported thirty-six we'll es- tablished chapters and 1.S00 members in Alabama.
 After the reading of several lengthy re- ports 1t was discovered that the rule of limiting to ten minutes was not being adhered to- and that the reports of in dividual chapters were being given in stead of reports of State Divisions of which the general society is composed. Mrs. Dowdell led the side which wished the bylaw limiting the reports to ten minutes to stand and spoke to motion to that effect that was made by Mrs Cov- lige of Florida. Mrs. Dowdelrs side won when a vote was taken and the limit re- mains. Mrs. Rosenberg, State President for Texas, was the leader of the side that wished extension of time If she had won against Alabama's State President this Convention would have been in ses- sion until Christmas.
 As usual in U. D. C. Conventions, discussion arose as to which State has most right to claim Jefferson Davis. Mis- sissippi. Kentucky and Virginia were all proclaiming their rights when Mrs. J. D. Beale of Montgomery said: Alabama wishes to make the claim that he did have a home in Montgomery, though he onIv occupied 1t for three months'

That little boys must never see, but

Or pulls his little sisters hair should

The Spankweed Just would jump at
