u d. c. Meeting
At the cozy home of Mrs. j. C.
Caldwell Dickson Chapter, u. D. c.,
met yesterday afternoon to hold its
December business meeting, seven
teen members attending.
Mrs. D. E. McIver, president, pre-
sided. Minutes of the two last reg
ular meetings and call meeting
were read and approved after which
the regular routine work was taken
up. Mrs. E. L. Carney, who was the
chapters delegate to the general con-
vention held in Savannah last month,
gave very splendid account of the
three days session. It was the first
time that Dickson chapter had ever
been represented at general con-
vention and Mrs. Carney's report was
one of the most interesting and en-
joyable ever delivered before the
chapter.
The visiting committee for the cur
rent month includes the chapter, and
each member is requested by the
president to help brighten the lives
of some elderly person and the Con-
federate veterans.
A motion was made and carried
that the chapter write the state reg
istrar for copy of her registration.
1t was also moved and carried that
the chapter send a Christmas box to
the Old Soldiers Home in Jackson
vile. Marrnalades, preserves, jellies
and suck like will be sent and the
members will kindly notice and send
their contributions next week to the
home of Mrs. C. Carmichael where on
Monday week Mrs. Caldwell and Mrs
C. F. Flippen will superintend the
packing of the box.
The chapter is in correspondence
with the director of the "Tom Thumb
Wedding" and some time during the
new year, if satisfactory terms can
be obtained, the play will be given by
local talent, the funds to go to the
building of the chapter house.
Before adjourning an invitation to
meet in January with Mrs. H. B.
Clarkson was accepted.
Mrs. Caldwell in very attractive
manner, served her guests to refresh
ments. AS the members arrived they
were invited to the dining room and
at prettily appointed table were
served to fruit salad, waters, sand
wiches and tea, the tea being. poured
by Mrs. Carney. On each sandwich
was little Christmas card.

was hostess to a beautifully appoint
ed luncheon, entertaining the teachers
of her three attractive children, and
Mrs. Cassels. wife lof Prof. Cassels,

These days we hear much about
congeniality as a basis for marriage.
But | say not congeniality of ideas
and tastes, but congeniality of spirit.
Love is a great elemental force. Two
hearts are drawn together as the steel
and magnet. There may be congeni-
ality of tastes and ideas, and there
may not be. 1 believe this is not es-
sential, unless the idea or inclination
is so at one with US that it is our
selves.
For instance. l am musical to my
fingertips. / sing and play and love
music My husband is a monotone.
He has an appreciation of music, and
/ have trained him until now he car
ries tune fairly well. On the other
hand, we are at one in our love for
poetry. He is fairly stepped in IL. We
both love books. But / have known
other men who loved books, and one
who was a trained musician, yet
neither attracted me as lover. Such
q bond, I am persuaded, is not great
enough to insure happiness in mar
ried life.
Some may think congeniality, so
called, is a "safer'' venture than love-
But I believe this is the fire without
the warmth and the thrill, says a
writer in the Ladies' Home Journal.

LOVE Is AN ELEMENTAL FORCE
THAT OUTWEIGHS ALL OTHERS
Marriage Made
i Worth While

In addition to his lack of music my
husband was in other ways uncon-
genial, in the common usage of the
word. He was not polished, was not
versed in the little niceties of life.
He was just a man all the way
through; yet sometimes l missed the
little graces' in him.
But there was and Is between us
this great force which is SO elusive
to define and yet SO powerful in its
Manifestations force which draws
all things unto itself; which is not
dependent upon attainment or beauty,
but which is rooted in the great
fundamentals of our natures, and
while it is born in the creative func-
ton of our being, Is yet holy in
thought and spirit and capable of all
sacrifice and devotion
Leaving all others cleave We only
unto him SO long as ye both shall
live" They are solemn words and
for a happy marriage must be sane
titled by a love that knows no self
love that never failethy If your
lover is in any way selfish, believe
me that love and selfishness are in
compatible. Love is the supreme test.
How, then, may girl know? She
will know because every fear and
doubt will be answered, and she will
rest in her love.

TO draw blood Better take on
too little cuticle than too much.
Go over each nail in this fashion,
keeping the stick a little moist to
prevent the skin from drying.
Should this happen it will be inn
possible to get good results. As
soon as each nail is finished anoint
it with cold cream TO counterfeit
the effect of SO much water. other
wise the nails will become too dry.
Soak the other hand as was done
with the first and work as before.
Both done, cover each nail
copiously with powder and polish
with a chamois buffer. Then wash
and scrub the hands, wiping care
fully. Inspect the finger tips closely,
cutting or rubbing off with the
stick any points of skin; then
polish with dry chamols, and the
hands should look infinitely better.
Polishing should be done every day,
but once a week is often enough for
filing and soaking.

BOY SCOUTS

VOL. L, NO. 4.
Thoughtfulness,

Thoughtfulness,
Another scout virtue is that of
thoughtfulness especially to animals;
not merely the thoughtfulness that
eases a horse from the pain of q
badly fitting harness or gives food and
drink to an animal that is in need,
but also that which keeps a boy from
throwing stone at cat or tying
tin can on a dogs tail, If a boy scout
does not prove his thoughtfulness and
friendship for animals, ii is quite GER
tain that he will never be really help
full to his comrades or to the men,
women and children who may need
his care.
The scouts Proof.
And then the final and chief test
of the scout is the doing of a good
turn to somebody very day, quietly
and without Boosting. This is the
proof of the scout. 1t Is practical
religion, and a boy honors God best
when he helps others most. A boy
may wear all the scout uniforms
made, all the scout badges ever
manufactured, know all the wood
craft, campcraft, scoutcraft and other
activities of boy scouts, and yet never
be a real boy scout. To be a real boy
scout means the doing of a good
turn every day with the proper mo-
tive, and If this be done the boy has
a right to be elassed with the great
scouts that have been of such service
to their country. To accomplish this
scout should observe the scout law.
Every boy ought to commit to
memory the following abbreviated
form of the scout law.
IA scout Is trustworthy.
PA scout is loyal.
IA scout is helpful.
"A scout Is friendly.
5--A scout Is courteous.
GA scout is kind.
IA scout Is obedient.
S--A scout is cheerful.
"a scout Is thrifty.
10--A scout lis brave.
| f1--A scout is clean.
PA scout Is reverent.

1t was a cold, cold day.
\Drivers atop of wagons stood up

their arms over their chests until
they made Dorothy Dear think Of
windnills gone crazy.
Errand boys hurried past, clap
ping their hands and blowing on
their purpling fingers. An auto
mobile scurried by the driver muf-
fled to the eyes in furs, while the
warmly-clad owner peered through
the glass window that helped to
shelter him from the biting wind.

A Useful Table


A housekeeper should have little
table of desserts carefully classified
for constant reference or written out
in tabular form, arranging her stock
of successful desserts into three
classes, perhaps, as heavy. medium
and light. Then she should consider
whether the dinner she is planning is
high III food value or low and supply
the kind of dessert that makes we'll
balanced meal. The following table
will illustrate such classification:
Heavy Desserts-Pies, cake and
cookies, suet buildings, rich short
cakes. rich ice cream preserves.
Medium Observation-Disclosures and
souffles, rice, cornstarch, sage, tapioca
puddings.
Light Desserts-Fresh and stewed
fruits. plain gelatine jelly, junkets.
