When the /National Continental So ciety of the Daughters of American Revolution held Its election in Wash ington a few days ago a very just hon or was conferred upon one of Alaba ma’s ablest and most popular women when Mrs, J. Morgan Smith, of this city, was elected among the vice presi dents general of the entire organization of D. A. R.'s. Mrs. Smith will fill the office with ability, having served as re gent for the state organization for a number of years, and during her years of office, when the chapters were not thoroughly organized, she evinced won derful Influence and executive ability and won for herself the love and ad miration of the entire membership of Alabama. When the congress of the state met In this city Mrs. Smith ten dered her resignation as state regent, but the representatives declined to ac cept It. She was urged to reconsider her withdrawal and promised to serve one year longer. As an evidence of their appreciation of her services, she was presented by the delegates from each chapter In the state a loving cup, and a year after was succeeded by the vice regent, Mrs. McClelland, of Ath ens, Ala.

You should expend your best efforts In trying to make your dining room at. tractive. The simplest way of doing so, but one which often causes great deal of worrlment to house- keepen, Is that of decorating the table. "What shall 1 put In tho center of the table?" is the problem that dally con fronts many housekeepers. It Is a simple matter, If you are handy with your needle, to embroider some pretty design as a dolly on which to rest your centerpiece. Of course, such an ornament Is not absolutely necessary, but then It makes the table look very attractive, and even the busi est hopsewlfe should be able to find a few spare moments now and then In which to take a few stitches In It. Now that spring has arrived no wom an should be at a loss for a centerpiece when the woods and the parks arc full of wild flowers. A basket of fruit, or a fancy dish full of highly polished apples also looks well. If you can afford a fern dish to hold yqur growing fern, this makes a- very attractive table ornament. The fern must be cared for constantly, how ever, and at night must not be allowed to remain In the dining room. In the day time, so long as the weather re mains cool enough for you to keep the room heated, It should only be al lowed to remain in the room at meal rime. If your party at table Is small, you do not want a high vase of flowers In the center, because conversation around such an obstruction Is well-nigh Im possible. But If your party Is large, the tall vase will not be so objection able, because In this case one can con verse with his neighbors to the right or left, without the necessity, of talk ing across the table. .For a family party, however, It Is generally better not to have a high centerpiece, be cause one Is Just as much Interested In his neighbors to the right and left as he Is In those directly opposite, and will want to carry on a conversa tion across the table os much as he wants to talk to his neighbors. Perhaps the most beautiful flowers of the early spring for table docora- tlon are whit# lilacs. They are very graceful when massed In a large bowl or vase, and they form a most ef fective background for cut glass and real silver. Their fragrance Is so subtle that It does not detract from the pleas ure of a dinner, but rather adds to It. PARASOLS MADE to match dresses and re-covered In all colors of allk. Paul Burkeri.
