The J. Il. Lippincott Company issues a
very attractive holiday reprint Of Irving's
Legends Of the AllIambra." with illus
trations and decorations by Mr.. George
Hood and an introduction by Mr.. Ham
iton Wright Mabie II is a book always
welcome at this time. As Mr. Mabic re-
marks these legends happily illustrate
not only the Moorish genius for ro-
nance, but the kinship Of IgTing's imsgi-
nation with motives and themes that
give full play TO sentiment" Few OF the
classics that are reprinted around the
holidays arc so merely bcguling as this
one. Mr. Mabie's essay delightfully."-
brings out its charm. and Mr. Hood,

D. A. R. YEAR BOOK
ArtistiealIy Gotten Up-contents of In.
 terest and Practical Value.

The November Meeting of Elizabeth Porter Putnam chapter, D. A. R., was held in the chapter rooms in Pomfret street Monday afternoon at o'clock. A board meeting was held at half past two. Mrs. Silas M. Wheelock pre- sided. The reports of the officers and committees were read and accepted, the business of the chapter was tram sacted and then the meeting was placed in charge of the programme committee, composed of Mrs. NJ. H. Medbury, Miss Bertha Sargent and Mrs. F. J. Daniels.
 Miss Edith Foster gave an enter taining paper, Peter Aspinwall. D. A. R. current events were given by Mrs. J. B. Kent, and Woodland Treasures by Mrs. F. J. Daniels.
 The decorations of the afternoon were autumn berries and vines and were most attractive On each cor ner of the artistically decorated table were bowls filled with partridge ber- ries; punches of red berries tied with red ribbon were given as favors.
 The luncheon was served by the fol- lowing hostesses: Mrs. F. w. Perry, Mrs. George H. Nichols, Miss Char lotte Manning, Mrs. H. F. Hopkins, Miss Anna Sampson and Mrs. George w Gilpatric.
 The year books of Elizabeth Porter Putnam chapter have been distributed and are most attractively compiled under the direction of the programme committee, Mrs NJ. H. Medbury. Mrs. F. J. Daniels and Miss Bertha Sargent. The entertainments of the year prom ise to be particularly interesting, deal ing principally with historical events and landmarks in eastern Connecti- cut. Papers as follows will be read during the year: Turnpikes and Tav- erns of Pomfret, Mrs. F. w. Perry Old China. Miss Ellen Wheelock; Turnpil1es and Taverns of Thompson. Miss Harriet Lewis; Turnpikes and Taverns of Woodstock, Miss Mary l.. Flynn; Turnpikes and Taverns of Kill lingly. Mrs. F. F. Russell.
 At each meeting D. A. R. current events will be given by Mrs. J. B.. Kent and Woodland Treasures by Mrs r. J. Daniels.
 The Woodland Treasures, telling of the uses of old time flowers and herbs. is a new subject which contains much of interest not generally known by the folk of today. There will also be special music at each meeting and the hostesses will serve luncheon each aft ernoon.
 The booklet containing the pro- gramme of the year is prettily decorat- ed with a branch of pine cones in wa ter colors upon the cover, the artistic work of Mrs. Bingham and artist Thomas Thurber, with reproduction of the D. A. R. emblem. A little poem suitable to each month and also a list of the officers and committees of the chapter and a list of chapter mem bers and their full addresses are given in this booklet.
