 of this kind and Mrs. Walter is emi- nently suited to the task of compiling it. Herself a Colonial Dame and a prominent Daughter, she is thoroughly in touch with matters pertaining to the life and works of the members. She is endowed with unusual mental grace and culture and her book will be one that will be read with distinct pleas ure. A characteristic exactness and attention to details will no doubt make of it an authority.
 The Colonial Danes have as yet no chapter in Birmingham, the members of the order being allied with the Mo- bile chapter. One of the local members, however-Mrs David Roberts-is vice president of the Colonial Danes in Alabama.
 Much interest is felt in Mrs. Wal ter's book by the 27 members of the society here.
 A recent issue of the Army and Navy Journal notes the members of the So- ciety of the Cincinnati in the state of Virginia, 190s-1909. Several names mentioned are familiar in Birmingham, notably that of Lieut.. Col John Monro Canister, U. s. A; Maj. Robert Scott Woodson, U. s. A, and Comdr. Hilary Pollard Jones, Jr., U. S.. N, who are quoted among the hereditary members.
 The Society of the Cincinnati is most interesting. It was organized May 10 and 13, 17s3, by officers of the Amer lean army in the cantonment of the American army on the Hudson river. Its purpose was to perpetuate the re- membrance of the result of the Revo- lutionary war in establishing the in-

 Mrs Walter will also incorporate some history of the prominent families of the state in her book, probably giv- ing sketches of the local Daughters of the American Revolution and other im- portant members of society. The little book will fill an immediate need. Many have expressed a wish for a treatise
