CHICAGO. Aug, 15.--Charles y.

vote of 3S4 in the electoral college.

votes, Hilles asserts, will go TO Wilson.
Thirty-four are doubtful In his csti-

Southern and four Western states are
listed as doubtful
The states given Wilson are Ala

doubtful ones, according to the Hiles
prophecy, are Arizona California Okla b

Florida DO. of whom we have right
to be proud-Mr. Gayle McFad1en of
Jacksonville, is in his second year at
Alabama Polytechnic Institute. Also
the scholarship at Washington Sem
mary, Washington, D. c., was award
ed by the general committee to Miss
Irma Trammell of Lakeland; but cir
cumstances prevented her from en-
tering, to her disappointment and
ours.
By awarding the Columbia College
scholarship to a Lake City boy, who
can live at home, we make it prac-
tically a full scholarship. The new
president of Columbia, DR.. Montague,
has been most courteously interest
ed in our educational work, and most
willingly continued the scholarship,
which has been given by his prede-
cessor, the lamented DR.. Tribble.
Miss Caroline Mays Breyard of Tai
lahassee is our efficient state chair
man OF education, and we count our
selves fortunate to have her SER
vices.
Besides the scholarships. Florida
Daughters of the Confederacy do a
wide educational work in encouraging
the study of history, offering gold
medals in some of the chapters, as
we'll as in the division convention au-
nually, presenting books for refer
ence study to the libraries of schools
and colleges. Pictures of historic in
terest are frequently given to schools,
and books are often furnished to
some ambitious boy or girl who needs
them.
In brief, the Daughters of the Con
federacy feel that education of the
youth of the south is the great work
of their future. Monuments we have
built to our glorious dead, and will do
so whenever it appeals to us as the
right thing to do. No work will ever
be quite so sacred to us as the care
of the survivors OF the great conflict,
but with the passing of the years
they Will go from us, and some day
the monuments that their deeds de
manded from us will all be built
But the dear privilege of giving to
their loyal and ambitious descend
ants the help they need to enable
them TO make the best Of their lives,
s one which will forever be ours,
and the one of all others which shall
in fullest measure repay into the
BOSOM of the south the Unreasonable
debt due her, for the sons and daugh
eers torn from her arms as a sacrifice

Well is it, and hopeful for a south
that is OLD with an Inheritance of glo-
y. and young with pulsing ambi
ion, that everywhere among us this
interest is awakening and growing;

any human soul than the possibility
Of reaching its best development?

sight or ken, for the influence of this
