In Memorlam.

A loving tribute to the memory Of my
dear mother, Annie 7. Lyddard. who de-
parted this life one year ago. November
9th. 1928.
One year has passed since that sad day.
When one we loved was called away.
God took her home, 1t was His will.
But in my heart she is living still.
From this world Of care and sorrow.
To a land of peace and rest.
In that land Of glad tomorrow.
Dear mother has found eternal rest.
There is never a life without sadness.
There is never heart free from pain.
If II seeks in this world for its solace.
1t seeks for it ever in vaiO.
So when to your heart cometh sorrow.
The first and the deepest you have known.
It's the touch Of Gods sickle at harvest.
Since He reaps in the fields He has sown.
By her loving daughter.

Confederate HonOred FOR Civil
War Service.

A tablet to the memory of Lieutenant
Colonel Ridgely Brown, Commander of the
First Maryland Confederate Cavalry, and
his portrait, were unveiled in the Court
House. at Rockville, on Saturday afternoon
last. The tablet was erected by the
Ridgely Brown Chapter, United Daughters
Of the Confederacy, while the portrait was
presented by the Ridgely Brown Camp,
United Confederate Veterans.
A large crowd from Montgomery county
assembled for the exercises, among which
we're four of the six surviving members of
the camp named after the distinguished
officer. They were Commander Elgar L..
Tschiffely, Judge Alfred C. Tolson, Rev. J..
W. Duffey and William F. Boland.
Impressive services were conducted by
Miss F. May Sellman, president of the u.
D. c. Chapter. She formally presented the
tablet to the county, following an invoca-
ton by Rev. DR.. Duffey, and the portrait
was presented by Capt. Samuel Riggs, of
Rockville. who commanded Company X,
First Maryland Regiment. in the Spanish
American War. Both were accepted by
Mr.. VIM. F. Prettyman, of Rockville.
A single flag covered both the tablet
and portrait. Mrs. Philip D. Laird, of Will
mington, DEL. a great niece of Col Brown.
pulled the string that unveiled the memo
rial.
The inscription on the tablet tells of
Col. Browns sacrifice to the Confederate
Cause. 1t reads in memory of Lieut..
Col. Rideely Brown. First Maryland Cav
airy, C. S. A., Army Of Northern Virginia
Born November 10. 1888; died June 1,

Club Notes.

The fourth semi annual meeting of the
Montgomery County Federation of Women ;:
Clubs was held in the court room, at Rock.
vile, on November 7th, with Mrs. Resale
u. Small. president, in the chair. Some
ZOO members, representing all but one Of
the 2S clubs in the federation, were present
Reports by the directors concerning the
activities of their respective clubs during
the past year showed that much good for
the general community has been accom-
phshed. This was largely through such
suo-organizations as the Social Service
League and the Parent Teachers Associa-
ton, and by means Of such other instru-
ments as music, aid to schools in the way
OF books, magazines, and vctrolas, con-
tributions toward scholarship funds, gifts
to the Montgomery County General Hos
pital and the bringing into the county of
noted speakers to discuss timely topics.
The w. C. T. U. now has eight unions
in the county. 1t has labored for the Sol
diers and Sailors, the young people, the
flower mission, Sabbath observance, and
total abstenaDce. 1t has adopted as its
sogan resolution passed by the State
organization which stands squarely for
observance of the laws of the country and
Christian citizenship, and in opposition to
any modification of the Volstead Act.
The two workers in the Social Service
League are meriting and receiving the
hearty support of the federation officials.
So great is the need for this work that it
would require the services of several more
trained persons to cover the field. The
treasury is much depleted and funds are
needed to provide for the expenses of the
current month. Contributions of clothing
and furniture, as well as of money, are
greatly needed.
A Thanksgiving donation party for the
benefit of the Montgomery County General
Hospital will be held at the hospital on
November 29th.
Instead of the usual poster contest among
eh0 oShOOio uuiihB sho year, ny WHICH tue
children are encouraged to draw, book
plate contest is to be instituted, in order
to evolve plate for all books in the vari-
GUS school libraries of the county.
Following the reports of the directors
considerable time was devoted to plans fol
work by the federation during the coming
year. particular attention being paid to
the matter of scholarship funds. 1t seems
that seven regular scholarships are now
available in the county. in addition to the
special University scholarship. now in its
fourth year. and two Normal School schol-
arships maintained by the Newcomb Club
of Bethesda. Although majority of those
present expressed themselves as in favor
of continuing the University scholarship
but only as loan to worthy girls from
Montgomery county, through the Univer
sity officials. no definite action was taken
An important announcement was mad,
to the effect that Montgomery County
Federation of Women's Clubs tree is to be
planted on the grounds of the Executive
Mansion at Annapolis, Md. at 2:3O P. M
on November 18th, and that following the
ceremony tea will be served by Mrs
Richie. 1t is expected that a large mem.
bership from the various clubs will be
present.
