 After the program delicious re- treatments were served
 Following the program came the annual election of officers, but before proceeding with this, Mrs. Benton, tha beloved President of the Chapter, asked to be heard in a few remarks in which she declined in touching language to be a candidate for re- election. Mrs. Benton has been the president of D. o. D. Chapter. for many years, and has served faithfully and well, and it was with reluctance the Chapter realized her determina- t.oncNpot to be a candidate for re- election. Her remarks were as fol- lows:
 My frinds, members of the D. 0 D. Chapter, U. D. C., wish I had the gift of tongue or pen to express to you how much I appreciate the hon. or you have conferred on me by elect ing me time and again to preside over your councils. Honors I have had that you know not of,-not from any merit that possess, but because I am a member of this organization of fifty thousand women banded to- gether to commemorate the deeds and valor of the unpaid soldiers of im- mortal principle; but none compare. to the honors from the D. o. D. Chapte". But my dear friends, ''I have ltng since passed the age limit, when one is useful in public capac- ity, and I do not wish my epitaph to read "one ot the hangers on, who seldom die and never resign" there fore l am not candidate for re-elec- tlon."
 The following is the list of officers elected: Mrs. A. M. Barrow, presi- dent; Mrs. M. l.. Bell, first vice-pres- ident; Mrs. w. o. Taggart, second vice-president; Mrs. L. K.. Land, re- cording secretary; Mrs. J. w. Withers, corresponding secretary, and Mrs. c. R. Fitzhugh, treasurer.
