The first general meeting Of the Alabama Society of Colonial Danes was held at the residence of the presi- dent, Mrs. Hortense A. Batre, on Sat urday, November 13. at o'clock. The attendance was good, although the ab- sentees still in other cities were greatly missed. The death of Mrs. Henry D. Lesesne was deeply deplored, 1t having taken place during the sum mer recess. Mrs. Agnes Winston Goldsby gave a most touching tribute Ito her worth. The report was made by Mrs. Harvey E. Jones from Mont- gomery that the State of Alabama had purchased the site of Fort Toulouse. eighteen miles from Montgomery. It now becomes possible for the Colonial Danes to erect a memorial on this historic site and to that end work on committees will soon be formed. Too much credit cannot be given to Mrs. f1dTfcy JOncS lOT tHG duIIliidbiG way in which she has prospered this pro- ject; also to Mrs. Anna P. Mcclellan, who first suggested the idea two years ago. The Danes are hoping the com mittee on Good Roads may see fit to push an auto road in the direction of the fort, and make it a favorite drive from the Capital City of Montgomery.
 Alabama is now the largest non-co- lonial State, with 175 members, and twenty-five applicants on the waiting list. It is hoped that season of profitable work has opened for the so- ciety. Much information was given out, pertaining to the National Soci- ety. This belongs exclusively to the members, this meeting being essen- tially a business one. The next meet ing will take place during the holidays and have a social side with a few fa- vored guests from the outside world.

A croquet Luncheon.

Along with other old-fashioned
things the time-honored game of GRO
quet has been revived. These sugges-
lions are for a luncheon to follow a
match.
The table should be a long one to
carry out the scheme with best effect,
and if a miniature set of croquet can
be purchased it will also simplify
matters. Eight small wickets will be
needed and they are to be arranged
on the table just as on the ground.
The cage or crossed arches should be
quite tall, as they will form the cen
terpiece. Any handy man Cor WON
am can make these wickets with
blocks Of wood and wire. Wind the
wickets first with green crepe paper,
then with fine picture wire or florists
wire. Cover them with sweet peas
or any other flower that may be pre-
ferred, but the sweetpeas are espe-
cially pretty when the delicate pink.
white and lavender are combined.
Each wicket may have a ribbon bow
on top. The tiny croquet mallets are
laid at each place with name cards
tied to the handle. For bonbons have
hard candy balls favored with fruit
juice; the confectioner will make
them in all the delicate shades. The
croquet stakes, ribbon-bound, should
be at the head and foot and the sue.
cessful players have these seats.

DESIGNS FOR THE STOCKINGS
Ribbon Embroidery Which Any
Clever Needlewoman Can Work E
for Herself.

Among the new stockings a clever
needlewoman can work for herself are
those done in ribbon embroidery.
These designs are generally applied
In self colors. Thus the bride will
prepare for her trousseau white silk
stocking embroidered with an elabor-
ate floral design combined with bow
knots worked in narrow satin ribbon.
Black silk stockings with small
sprays of flowers in black ribbon, and
brown stockings with lunches of rose
buds, or Napoleonic wreaths in brown
ribbon are exceedingly up to date.
Another novelty is to applique to
stockings small medallions OF geomet-
ricaI designs cut from batiste en-
hroidery. These figures are basted to
sne stocking to give a good effect, and
the edges are then worked in a fine
buttonhole stitch, or in over-and-oyor
stitches.
Another pretty fancy is to make
hearts, diamonds or circles on stock

in varied conceptions. The form of

color, with great poppies in rose,
backed by a fern-like green foliage.

is stained a deep red, matching the
roses. The entire frame is gilt. This

to do justice to the bountiful spread

93 years old and still in the harness.
The school Of journalism in which
Mr.. Hildreth learned how to convey
news to tho public was that which
made Horace Greeley famous and in
~lluential. In fact, Mr.. Hildreth in his
younger days labored as a printer on
the Family Magazine and later the
Christian Intelligencer, which were
published in the same building In
New York city that housed the New

Greeley. Mr.. Hildreth knew Greeley
In those days, and relates how on one
occasion Greeley shed tears because
of his inability to pay Off his help at
the end of the week.
Mr.. Hildreth was the Oldest of a
family OF six boys and six girls, and
was born February 20, 1916. In 1887

In Chelsea. He afterwards had a
shop of his own In Lowell. Mass.
where he published the Literary Sou

papers and then went to Boston, and
later to Bradford and Holyoke. where
he published the Mirror. He came

gencer at Charles City. Ia.
1t was a difficult task to start a
paper In Iowa In those days, for tho
material had to be dragged from
Galena, the end of the railroad, to its
destination by OK team. The first
paper he printed was sold at auction
for $40, and It is now In the historical
department of Iowa.
