The announcement last week that the Daughters of the American Revolution of Texas had established a state schol- arshp fund, recalls the fact that the Maricopa Chapter had frequently con sidered raising just such fund. Tine few chapters in the state and the small membership have not been encouraging and so the local organizations have eX- tended their patronage along other lines. This year the members will con sider the needs of the associated char ities, making garments for women and children They will not, however, give up their pet project scholarship plan which will merely be set aside until some future day. The Texas fund was initiated in 1909 by the Andrew Cora thers Chapter and the twenty five of the state chapters co-operated. There were also liberal contributions from women not members of the association. The s4000 brings $240 interest annually and in the selection of the beneficiary. scholarship and earnestness of purpose will be among the points considered.
