A. !., was chosen lo inuke the respmiv to the address of wel come at the recent D. A. K. district meet big in Charlotte. Mis. Hobinsjii Maid: " Madam hVgent, District Chairman, State and National Ofliccis, and lie gent of Signers Chapter: ''It is my happy privilege, in behalf of the D. A. hi. of the Third district to respond to cordial words of greeting. We were all pnpaied for tin- gracious welcome given us by the regent of the honless chapter, for Charlotte is noted for its welcomes, suited lo all occasions, particularly for tin- warm (nut to say hot i welcome given one ( oniHallis by your ancestors. Tribute to Wilson. "You also gave a ro.vir. and most ap propriate welcome' to I'resident Wilson when he visited you (applause), greeting him with sunshine and flowers, martial music, streaming banners and cheering throngs of people. Today the present administration, under the inllueiice of Mr. Hughes, is carrying out many of Wilson's policies and without his name no true history of this nation's influence and progress can ever be written. Thus did Charlotte anticipate the great height to which he should rise and welcomed him accordingly. "And not so lung ago liovernor Hick ctt was greeted with u downpour of rain, which must have been a welcome dear to his Haptist loving heart. I think it is fitting and proper that our lirst district meeting should be held in Mecklenburg with the Signers chapter as hostess, for those of us who attended the national congress- in Washington, realize that without the Mecklenburg Declaration of, Independence 'e never could have held our own against the I'lymouth Rock I'il- ' griius mid the Ride of I'nul Revere. "I cousiijercl it both an honor and a privilege to act as North Carolina 's teller , for our vice president geueral, Mr-. H. 1 D. Heath, of whose majority we were all so proud. I say honor, advisedly, for while the wink was arduous anil we were locked in from H:.Hl a. m. to s:;iu p. m. of these women, five were state re gents. One charming old lady, Mrs. Kstey of Kstey organ fame an ex gen eral orlieer of Khode Island, said to me: " 'My dear, I know you are from the south, but just w here were you born ? ' i 1 replied, ' I was born in the )ct place . in the world and I ean prove it. The j world acknowledges the Tinted States as the premier nation and North Carolina,, with its highest birth rate and lowest death rate, its magnificent mountains and delightful Hcaeonsts, its cotton fields and cotton factories, has no superior. Meek leiibui'g county was ( when I was bum) and before (inxlon county became so seri ous a rival, the leader in its traditions, patriotism and progress. While every 1 Sen ten Irish I'resbyterian in the South ern (ielieral Assembly concedes that Stool Creek is the heart and soul of Mecklen burg and here 1 and my father and my mother before ine, were born." I "Mrs. Kstey replied, 'My dear, you make out a gaod case, but I fi-ai you mav be just a little partial. ' " "The D. A.
