Mobile Chapter.

Mobile Chapter.
 l Another year of literary effort and social intercourse on the part of this
 energetic chapter was finished the af- ternoon of the fourteenth instant, by lthe patriotic exercises celebrating Flag Day
 l The beautiful home of the Regent was as is. usual on such occasions, placed at the disposal of the chapter.
 The presiding genius had decorated
 the spacious rooms with flags and the star spangled emblem of the land or the free, hung over the hospitable
 door, once more told the story of the long, heroic struggle for human rights on American soil.
 | Tn spite of the heat the attendance
 was excellent. The large audience gave absorbed attention to the history
 of the flag as rendered by the Regent, whose interesting and accurate ac- count was supplemented by the reci- .tatton. of Master Claiborne Schley, whose theme was The Flag or Our
 Nation" This effort was received with an interest increased by the fact that the young orators mother is valued
 and useful member of the chapter. It Is a happy and commensurate thought on the part of the Mobile Chapter to include so frequently the
 children in their celebrations of his-
 toric events Such a participation can mot fail to awaken a more lively inter- est in the history of our country and | serves to fix the sequence of these
 events in the minds of the particl- pants. The influence of the Mobile chapter upon the community is shown by the fact that last year the only l notice taken of Flag Day was that made by this patriotic organization, while this year the celebration was general. A good example Is conta- gious. The welcome subject The War Poetry of Father Ryan," was most
 ably treated by Mrs. M. E. Henry l Rufin, who. a poet herself" enjoyed the voted adherent of the South. Mrs. Feeks furnished the music and alto gether the occasion was not only sat- ! isfactory but delightful
 The chapter now numbers one hun ], ldred and ten and deserves most ear Inest praise for the continuance or the
 Interest manifested at its organization
 The Regent, Mrs. R. H Clarke IS ont
 of the most public-spirited women ol our State. Earnest, energetic ano
 magnetic, she devotes her time and
 talent to promoting the growth or hel
 chapter. and amidst all the claims oi
 her domestic and social life is stead fast to the demands of patriotism Her influence is stimulating and bene' |. faith and her works become more ant ] more valued by those whose loving endeavor is to support her in the no ble task she has undertaken. Ih' members of her chapter entertain foi her that enthusiastic devotion. whicf } is evoked only by unselfish love ol l our native land, the inheritance pe' ? queathed by her ancestors of the Rev olution.
