LET SCHOOLS BE
THEIR MONUMENTS

Mrs. Henderson, president-general,
United Daughters of the Confederacy,
in a recent letter impresses upon the
chapter presidents the necessity of
familiariZing themselves with the pro-
ceedings of the Gulfport convention,
and the new rules adopted there.
She also suggests that the public
schools in al southern cities be
named for distinguished southern
men, particularly those of confeder-
ate fame This would be a fine lesson
in patriotism. Mrs. A. L. Dowdell, of
Opelika, Ala, recording secretary, L.
D. c., will furnish a copy of the
minutes of the Guifpcrt convention
upon receipt of % cents

THE RIGHT THING
DONE AT LAST

A reliable gentleman and a patriot
on "the other side" writes from An
dersonvilIe, April 26, 1907, to the edi-
tor of the Confederate Veteran:
1T affords me very much pleasure
to inform you that all those objection
able signbOards in the Jonson park
have been removed. They should
never have been put up, for, apart
from any question of their accuracy,
they were inJudicious, irritating to
the southern people, and net approved
by many, northern people"
The Pensacola journal., 1907-05-26
Mrs. Beaa's Retirement.

My removal from the state makes
it necessary that l resign the position
of editress of the u. d. c. department
courteously granted by The Journal
Company. In doing so, l thank the
Daughters for the compliment paid
me, also the publishers for their as
sistance in making it successful.
In the hands of my successor, Mrs.
Thomas, and her able ASSISTANTS,
Mesdames MacDavid and Howe. the
column will be made more interesting
than before, and have that influence
upon public sentiment which their
devotion to the cause, superior intel
ligence and experience make possible.
With high hopes and prayers for
that success, which the righteousness
of its cause demands and which the
devotion of the L. D. c. warrants,
lay aside these pleasant duties.
(MRS.) LILY G. BEALL.

Yale won the annual four-mile eight
Dared race at New London last evening
by less than a length. Yale averaged
four strokes less to the minute than Har-
ward, but the two crews kept on even
terms until the last half mile, when Yale
spurted. One disagreeable incident in
connection with the race was the arrest OF
e. H Hartman, the noted millionaire,
who disobeyed orders and in a swift mo-
tor boat attempted to follow the race.
Lieut.. Billiard. President Roosevelt's ma
val aid, and Chairman Schweppe caused
Hartman to stop and detained him on a
revenue cutter where he was unable to
see the race. His offense may lead to a
fine of $500,

the export trade is more than ever getting

has formed a home building syndicate,
with the intention Of placing the contest
