D. 4. R. WAR ACTIVITIES
 TOLD IN REGENTS BOOK

Members of Faith Trumbun chapter, D. A. R., of Norwich are much inte- rested in book recently issued in which are related the war activities of the Connecticut Daughters. 1t was coThiled by Mrs. John L. Buel, of -Litch- cid, the state regent, and covers the work done during the great World war from August Is, 1914 to November Il, 1918, with supplemental reports since the signing of the armistice, to and in cluding June, 1919.
 It is cited that in Red Cross work the Daughters of the American Revo- lution took the lead, though working so largely as individuals without keep ing records that their chapters had no means of even estimating their pro- duction. Some chapters reported ''thousands' and many of them said impossible to estimate" or mo record kept"
 Twenty five D. A. R. chapters or ganized the Red Cross chapters, aux iliafies, or groupps of workers in their respective towns, most of them after the breaking out of the war, and all over the state the Daughtrs were the Red Cross chairmen, officers, super visors and heads of departments.
 Thirty-ene D. A. R. chapters had a 100 per cent. Red Cross membership and the whole state attained -S3 1-4 per cent.
 In food conservation the chapters co-perated with the food administra- tons in all it's activities.
 The splendid work of the chapters in contributing $5,465.24 to the N. s. D. A. R. s180,0g Liberty Loan Fund put Connecticut far lover the top" our quota, assessed at $1,Oo0 a member on the 1918 membership having been only $5,17S. At the Continental Con- gress of 1918, the Connecticut delega- ton contributed during the rally for this fund, the sum of $3o6S6666666 this fund, the sum of $306, Of which 150 was contributed by the delegation as a whole in honor of the vice pres ident general, Mrs. Minor, the state regent, Mrs. Bael and state vice re- gent, Mrs. Bissell.
 Every chapter without exception con tributed to this Liberty loan quota. thus making the state 100 per cent. as of the fifty were 100 per cent. in their chapter quotas, nine of these being far more than 100 per cent.
 In the N. S. D. A. R. fund for the festor ation of the French village of Tilloioy, undertaken by the society as a whole, the Connecticut chapters al- s9 went over the top contributing s5,0S0.54 when the state quota was only s2,5Se at soc member. Thirty eight chapters went over the top with their quotas, and only five did not con- tribute at all.
