ChiIdren of the Confeaeracy.

It was with grave forebodings that I undertook the directorship of the J. E. B. Stuart Chapter of c. of c. when I was elected to that offiee at the am ntial election of officers of the Sophie Bibb Chapter in December of last year. The J. B. B. Stuart Chapter was re- ported to me as not in a 1ourishing condition and a great lack of interest. I had little trouble in locating seven members holding registered applica- tions. After careful thought decided to try and get the cooperation of mothers and solicit new members. This I did by phoning few that I thought would be interested. To my agreeable surprise all the mothers and children communicates with were vastly inter- ested, and in q little while had se- cured thirty-eight new members anx. ious to join.
 On Saturday, January 30, cold and very disagreeable day, twenty of the members met with me-. Officers were elected by ballot, short talk was made by Miss ogburn. the primary teacher of the Bellinger Hill School. on the objects of the Chapter work, and read Items of interest connected with the life of General J. D. B. Stu art. Refreshments were served and parlor games enjoyed before adjourn ment.
 At each meeting. with Miss ogburn's help, I hope to have the program as entertaining and beneficial to the chill dren as possible, so that each child will want to come again without further solicitation.
 Since the afternoon of January 30. the roll has been Increased to a mem bership of fifty.
