The D. A. R.

Since Washington is their home and
they always have had their national
headquarters here, the Daughters OF
the American Revolution, in conven-
tion assembled. cannot be considered
strangers in any sense, and formal
welcome to them partakeS Of the nature
of contradictory redundancy. But the
impulse to give them a word OF greet
ing on the occasion Of their annual
congress nevertheless Is compelling.
Some recognition of them seems called
for at this season of the year. With
these apologies for what may be deemed
q repetition, The Star salutes those Of
the Daughters who are permanent resi-
dents of the city and, particularly
those who never have been here before
the present gathering.
The D. A. R., as it is familiarly
known, is a remarkable organization.
SO vast is the influence which it ex-
ercises and SO constructiyely effective
are the ideals which it serves that
many, unschooied in its history, may
think of it as being older than it is.
In point of fact it came into existence
as recently as only forty-three years
ago, relatively short period of time
in the life of Nation and not inordi-
nately long in the life Of single in
dividual. Its birthday was October IL,
1890. and the wife of President
Benz iamin Harrison was its first presi-
dent general.
The society has grown strong and
ricn because Of the central inspiration
OF patriotism which it was formed to
conserve. Its objects are Ito perpetuate
the memory Of the spirit of the men
and women who achieved American
independence: to promote institutions
for the general diffusion of knowledge;
to cherish, maintain and extend the
institutions of American freedom; to
foster true patriotism and love Of
country; and to aid in securing for
mankind all the blessings Of liberty"
Such a platform deserves the sdmira-
tion and support of the whole people
Of the United States. Only those de-
scended from Revolutionary patriots
may join, but all may applaud. and it
is a matter of common observation that
the society is generally appreciated
even by Americans of the most recent
allegiance.
The D. A. r. as an organization has
no official status, and perhaps it is just
rs we'll that it should be free OF hamper
ing bonds. 1t is a volunteer sisterhood,
entirely self-supporting and self-suffi-
cient. Its contribution to American
civilization has been valuable. and it
may be presumed that it will continue
so to be. This years congress- like
those Of earlier years, will be a source
Of inspiration and strength to the
country Possibly, the 1888 conference
may prove especially helpful. If ever
the D. A. R. we're needed, it is needed

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEHELL.

All the ladies In town, We believe. are
thinking about Spring house cleaning.
While that rite no longer has the
sanction 1t once had. In the land Of
the free and the brave, there u enough
glamor-and Work-to 1t, 10 we UNDER
stand, to still make 1t important.
We hope the ladies will consider
walls.
Bare walls. such a. have been the
fashion for several years. are not to our
liking.
XIsterity has no place there, many .
person viii think.
Let simplicity reign where 1t will, but
That way "h0me-i-ress" lies. and
nothing-n0t even interior decoration
can take its place.
The interior walls ought no more to
be wasted than q fence.
II 1t takes planting to make q house
q home, ~ We have 80 often been told,
surely the implanted fence ID nothing
but barrier.
Wreathed and twined, however, with
glorious roses, Wisteria, morning glories,
silver lace vines, and host of others,
fence becomes garden In its own
right.
Walls, too.
Their decorative sanction is age-old
Over the great stone blocks OF the
barOnial castles of the Middle Ages
huge tapestries we're flung. not only to
soften their appearance, but also for
sheer decorative purposes.
A wall does. indeed, make an un-
paralelled display place.
v.,trN .,.rlNk
Is painting applied ON \ house wall.
What is prettier, in home. than
properly curtained windows, with the
sun coming through them?
This has been largely recognized in
recent years, SO that certain windows
are kept rather as display places than
as light appertures. :.
Shelves built across the panes hold
small art objects. pretty to behold either
from the outside or the inside Of the
home.
The vogue for simplicity may be
ovsrdone. no doubt about 1t.
1t Is, in most instances, simply Q re-
coil from the other extreme. the rather
dowdy fussineSs of over Recommendation
II there had never been too many
pictures Grained onto q wall. there per-
haps never would have been movement
toward rigid simplicity.
In its extreme form, this rigidity Of
decoration ca!ls for nothing on the
wall at all
The surface itself must be the note
OF inteIest.
Amy one with half an eye for beauty
can see the point in that.
II Is possible to create q surface Of
such texture that it needs no Othsr +
ad0rnment.
But is this all?
An exquisite plane, no matter how
beautifully harmonized with its sur
roundings, Is bare.
Bsreness. even when broken by relief
plasterinss, no matter how decorative
In themselves. has cold appearance.
And should the note OF any room in
modern home. with the possible ex-
ception OF the baths, be that Of COOL
ness?
The human element comes In right
there.
Some temperamentS will saw yves. "
