A Permanent State Badge for AIabams
 Daughters.

Permanent State b0dBe TOT AhaDNmu
 Daughters.
 At the annual State conference held fin Opelika, December, 1906. 1t was vot- ed that AIabawa have a permanent State badge, bearing the State coat of arms. In order to carry the resolution into effect, Mrs. J Morgan Smith. State Regent, appointed a badge committee, of Mrs, James R. Draper, or oxford. chairman; Mrs. James T. Har- we'll of Birmingham, and Mrs. Charles Sha whan, of Mobile, who were given fun power to design and arrange for the badge. This committee. after many delays, has completed the design. and has turned it over to Mrs. Harwen to make the final color drawing.
 The pin will be of heavy gold plate, and will bear the State and D. A. K. emblems in red. white and D. A. K. blue enamel The shield will be com posed of thirteen stripes In alternating red and white, and on the exposed side will be a band of blue showing thir- teen white stars. The eagle will be in blue, shading from the rich D. A. R. color to lighter tints. The pennant flying from the eagles beak, will be outlined in blue and will display the State inscription, Here We Rest, m blue capitals. A band of blue will run round the pin, and the letters' ID. A k VIII appear bSACN Nt.S
 inc under side will be placed the ua- tional number. The pin will be secured by a safety catch.
 As soon as the final drawing is per- fected. it will be placed in the hands of A manufacturer. The price per pin. including all expenses, will be not more than $1, perhaps a few cents less, but in order to secure this rate, it Is necessary to make the sale of 100 pins The following plan for managing the sale has been decided upon inasmueh os if Is both systematic and eXpedt- tious: The chairman Of the committee will write each chapter regent and ask her to appoint badge agent TOT her chapter The work of the agent wul be to see all the chapter members, take orders for the pin, and collect the money in advance. with the under = standing that 1t will be refunded If 100 pins are not sold throughout the State. From the action of the conference ID thts matter, 1t is supposed that all the charters will heartily cooperate n adopting a permanent badge, and that each Daughter will purchase pin. Each chapter regent is requested to make known to her chapter the de- scription of the badge, and the condt- tIon upon which it's adoption depends. as given in this article, and to use her influence in advancing the work of the committee.
 A permanent State badge will> mean much to Alabama Daughters. for 1t will give the wearer a distinctiveness in all assenblages. and will signify her iden- tifcation with her State society. It

Closing Exercises Of the Scooba
Graded School.

The lecture FRIDAY night Dy u. 81.
Senator Robert l.. Taylor was made
the initia1,event of the closing of the
Scooba. Graded School for the ses-
sion l90sAO7, in that that, distin-
guished gentleman, prior to deliver
ing his slecture, performed for the
young lady teachers the pleasant
task of comforting upon the two
graduates, Misses Ona johnson and
A1libel Adams, the diplomas en-
blematic of their successful termi-
nation of~their studies.
At IL O'Clock a, IN. Sunday, atethe
Baptist Church, the Rev. L.. e. AL
ford, pastorof the Southside Metho-
dist Church. at Meridian, preached
the commencement Sermon" The
exercises were. opened with PRAYER
by the Rev. John w. Ramsey, the
rendition of some speciaHyprepared
music by the choir, and congrega-
tional singing. Rev. Mr.. Afford Sc
lected as his text Genesis l, IL: I'm
the image of God created He him;
male and female created He Them"
1t was a well prepared, well deliy-
cred, thoughtful discourse, contain
ing much good seed to cast on fruit
full soil, and was listened to with
close attention by a congregation
which filed the building to its full
seating capacity.
The entertainment Monday night
was, aside from the musical feature,
an expositionsof whatcan be accom-
plished in the way of training small
children. The various drills and
personification of Mother Goose"
rhymes gave evidence of great care
and patience on the part of those
in whose charge the children were;
little Miss Kathleen Moonev played
the character of Mother Goose"
admirably. The character e by
olderpnpils were well rendered.
The entertainment ON Wednesday
night postponed from Tuesday on
account of the rain) was practically
a duplication of that of Monday,
save THAI the participants We're gen.
orally more advanced. The drills.
sketches, etc., were well rendered.
The musicalfeature predominated
at botI, entertainments and was a
brilliant exploitation of the ability
of Mrs. Walter Carter as an ~instruc-
tor on the piano. The command
which little girls like the Stuart
children, Jewel and LYDIA, have over
| the instrument, and the fin
ished performance of such older pu-
| pills as the Misses Ona johnson and
Renie Maury, r speaking evidence
of the possession of that peculiar
gift of imparting knowledge. to 9TH
ers without which no teacher is a
real success. Scoobans are very
proud of their accomplished young
music teacher, and they have every
| reason to be so.
Altogether, the entertainments
were marked successes, and the
young lady teachers deserve much
credit.
