D, C., Di cnaaed Plans Yesterday. Discussion of the annual New Year’s ball made the meeting held yester day afternoon by SaVannah Chapter, U. D. C„ an important and interest ing one. It was especially called for the purpose of considering the ad visability of the ball, and the best means of preparing for It, and Mrs. Hull, who presided, asked for individual opinions from each member of the chapter present. It was unanimously decided to .follow past custom, and gide the ball, which enables the chap ter to defray, in part, the expenses of its charitable and edubational work. Mrs. Hull presented 'a. summary of the amount donated to such work each year by the Savannah Chapter. With between 200 and 260 members, an aver age total of S6OO is distributed an nually. Of this, S3OO goes to local chlar ity. Four girls are supported at the Winnie Davis Memorial School in Athens, at an expenditure of S2OO a year. Four pupils are placed in schools in Savannah, and are supplied with all necessary books, stationery, etc. The regular pension list includes veterans and widows of veterans, who receive at least $25 a month. The Win nie Davis Memorial at Athens has be come so popular that there is not room, enough for the demand. It is, Mrs. Hull said, the only modern up-to-date dormitory there, and many more girls could be taken care of, if there were rooms in which to put them. The Sa vannah Chapter's work in connection with the establishment of the Memorial Hall, arid its hearty support of it since are well known. This Is only one feature of its philanthropic work, for the continuance of which the annual ball is given. It will take place this year, Dec. 29 at tbe Guards’ Hall, and, In view of the fact that so much of the Daughters work benefits those who were once military men, it is hoped that the mili tary of Savannah will take a special interest in the entertainment, and aid it every w*ay possible. The military reature will be especially emphasized this year, and all members of the mili tia will be asked to wear uniform. Those who will be invited to act as chaperons are Mrs. W. B. Stephens. Edward S. Elliott. Mrs. W. W. MHliamson. Mrs. W. W. Gordon, Mrs. ”■ - Gordon, Jr., Mrs. Meldrlm, Mrs. L. Grayson and Mr*. Walter Ooney; Mrs. E. H. Abrahams, from the chap ter; Mrs. J. a. G.

For the benefit of its patriotic work a sale was given yesterday afternoon by Lachlan Mclntosh Chapter, D. A. R., and proved a successful as well as an attractive affair. Mr. Murphy's piano rooms, under the Guards’ Armory, lent themselves admirably to the needs of the occasion, and, with many lovely flowers, and the fancy articles for sale artistically arranged, looked very pret ty indeed. Quite an attraction was the Lucky Tree, in charge of Mrs. A. E. Moyneio, who was assisted by Miss Mary Comer, Miss Lily Lynah, Miss Julia Hunter, Miss Anna Hunter, and Mias Lola Moy nelo. The tree was beautiful to see, hung with makebelieve oranges and peaches, and each purchase w'as re warded with a prize. The little girl who drew the lucky number, six, was awarded the chief prize, a doll house, given by Mrs. Bryan, and can get it by calling at the rooms this morning. The recipe books, a little collection of private tested recipes, with covers decorated by Savannah artists, were very much In demand, and those who were unable to purchase them may TEACH THE CHILDREN A delicious dentifrice makes the tooth brush lesson easy.

The hostess who is a strict prohibi tionist is sometimes at a loss for good drinks to serve at her afternoon re ceptions. Tea end chocolate are so commonplace that she is not to be blamed if she does cast her eyes long ingly at the punch recipes and wish her principles were not quite so strict. However, there is nothing more lntnxi eatingly delicious, in the perfectly proper use of the term, than fruit punch. To make this consoling temperance beverage put one pound each of rasp berries and currants Into a bowl. Mash them to a pulp, add four quarts of water and let the mixture stand cov ered for two or three hours. Boil four cups each of granulated sugar and water, dropping in a bit of lemon rind. Ten minutes' boiling is long enough. When cold add the Juice of eight lem ons and six oranges. Strain both mix tures and pour them together. To give it smartness add one pound of candied cherries and a quart of finely cracked Ice. Not the most enthusiastic member of the white ribbon society could object to this; in fact, even a toper -would enjoy a cup of it. Besides it gives you a chance to use your new punch bowl, and you have no idea what a pretty showing the drink makes. MODERN BED COVERINGS. The more expensive bed coverings are of the finest of fine linen, embroidered by hand in satin stitch, eyelet em broidery or some such design, while the bureau and dressing table scarfs are to correspond. For ordinary wear, plain linen coverings and pillowcases prettily hemstitched are In excellent taste also. The modern bedroom dispenses with carpet, and has a highly polished floor or Japanese matting covered with hand some rugs, which can be lifted and shaken very often. These simple, but elegant furnish ings, with a plain wall paper and dainty window draperies, give a freshness and sense of comfort that was entirely lacking in the bedroom of fifty years ago, with its cumbersome dark furni ture and heavy, unhealthy hangings. CONSOLING. Two gaunt specters. Bronchitis and Pneumonia, met in one of the thor oughfares of the city. “What’s the matter, old fellow?" ask ed the Bronchitlß specter. “You are looking blue.” "Matter enough,” replied the Pneu monia specter; “I’ve Just been look ing over the opinions of the weather prophets and they predict a mild win ter.” “Cheer up!’ cried Pneumonia, hilar iously. “I, on the other hand, have Just been gladng over the winter’s fashions. The women's fur coats, I am delighted to say, are made with V necks and no collars, and the Eton Jackets ending at the waist will be popular as ever.”—Fuck. DEBORRAH REBECCA LODGE BANQUETS.
