N. S. D. A. R. Its Purpose,
Principles and Doings

The National Society of d. A. r.
is a patriotic organization which
was organized with the purpose of
cheriShing extending and maintain
ing the institutions of American
freedom and the principals upon
which our government was found
ed. With a rich, glorious past to
build upon our movement is ever
forward without too much reliance
ON that past save as guide and an
inspiration. With pride we view
the past and with feeling of re-
sponsibility we vision the future.
We have sometimes been refer
red to as being militaristic. This
criticism only through a lack Of
knowledge on the part Of those
who so accuse us, The Daughters
of the American Revolution are
citizens Of this peace loving una
gressive nation and being normal
women, the thot of war is an alb
torrance rather than state to be
desired. The organization stands
for the right kind of peace, al
world wide peace, which is proper
~ defined, recognized and adj
heared to by the great nations of
the world. Until such peace isl
thoroughly established we believe
that our nation should be safe
guarded Though a reasonable pre-
paredness both along our borders
and within our midst, that our
Army and Navy should be suffic-
itnt to protect our interests and
our dignity as a nation, that our
youth should be physically, NOR
ally and mentally trained to meet
any crisis,
The aim of the society is for
high standards in citizenship. the
stamping out of illileracy and the
bringing of our youth and our
foreign born to full realization
OF the benefits and responsibilities
of citizenship.
For the accomplishments of
these aims and purposes, the socic-

tweed will prove delightful me-
diuns for the development of
this model. An added bit of
charm would be collar and
cuffs of satin that harmonizes
with the color scheme of the
frock.

DEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:<
If a lady calls on you with a
card of Introduction from a friend
of yours and you are not at
home. what is the proper thing to
do when you see the card?
is it my place to call on her,
send her note, or call her on
the telephone, stating / regret
that / was not home when she
called? Should / wait until she
calls again?
You should return your visitors
call in person. and ii she is
at home and you like her you can
ask her TO your house to luncheon
or tea or dinner, or just 10 pay an
informal visit. If she is out when
you return her call you can write
her a note and say that you are
sorry to have missed her, or tel
ephone her and say that you are
sorry. A visiting card from a
friend is somewhat informal
method of introduction and / do
not believe that in this case you
are called upon to do very much
