Board has a general oversight of the al
fairs of the Society, passes upon apphca-
tions, admits members, organizes state
societies, etc. In the respective States
where there is d. r. organization the
affairs OF the Society are managed by
States societies which in their turn have
supervision of local chapters and Of The
members in the State. These State So
cieties have a complete set of officers
and the power is thus distributed as in
our government. between the central
government, the States and the cities.
Our object is to devote money and WORK
in the States themselves. In the thlr-
teen original States our work IS directed
toward marking Revolutionary sites, pre-
serving documents and rehcs, ana III the
other States much has been done IN pro-
noting the Observance of national hoh-
days ad also in arousing and fostering
a spirit of patriotism in the public
cohools.
The d. r. membership is large and *
steadily increasing: our method OF stl1ct
requirements and careful scrutiny OF ap-
plications makes the increase healthful
and desirable. There are State organlza
tons in nineteen States and members
are scattered all through the Union.
If one becomes Daughter Of the Rev
olution she may be sure that there can
never be any question about her status
as lineal descendant OF Revolutionary
ancestor She belongs to society where
all members stand on an equal footing,
she need apologize for no associate or
make elaborate explanation why such an
one was admitted. Daughters or the
Revolution carries its full significance
in its very title.
