 The Daughters of the American Rev. olution celebrate the birthday of our nation. Mrs. J. Morgan Smith. Our honored State Regent was re- gently the recipient of the following notice:
 "On the coming Fourth of July 1905, the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion will hold a patriots meeting In Memorial Continental Hall, Washing ton, D. C. The Declaration of Inde- pendence will be read and addresses made.
 Tt seems pre-eminently fitting, now that the walls of our Memorial Conti- mental Hall are reared. that within them should resound on the Fourth of July the words that made us nation; and that tributes should be paid in this day to that day which assured liberty to the land.
 Our President General wishes that every Daughter and Son of the Ameri- can Revolution could attend this meet ing. or at least send to her and to our great society the thoughts and prayers inspired by the order of patriotism. By direction of
