spoke of the praiseworthy work accom-

which has been given the Red Cross
poster, fEThe Greatest Mother in the
World He concluded with the state
ment that if there were any way in
which he or his associates might help
to make the drive success, they would

recruiting work in its accomplishment.

afternoon, Mrs. W. K. Peck reported

the war was over, as it was patriotic
duty to do everything possible for the

complishment of war work that it would
be impossible to keep a separate file
of the work done by the Daughters.
The Daughters were also asked to sub
scribe to the National D. A. r. maya
zine and upon completion Of the report,
Miss Emma Brister regent, appointed
Mrs. Peck chairman of committee for
