collecting of postcards and the making of albums, which were to be distributed in the children's wards of the city hospitals. Similar albums had been given, with picture books, at Christmas time. Gifts of toys were made to the Day Nursery on Ninth Street, Washington, and twenty-five car tickets were sent to a visiting nurse to give mothers with ailing children a chance to take them for car rides into the country.

To Mrs. Alfred E. T. Hansmann, who resigned the Presidency of Capital Society in February, 1910, to become State Director for

the District of Columbia, is largely due the present fine condition of the Society. During a period of quiescence it had fallen into a seemingly hopeless condition with members scattered and interest gone. Mrs. Hansmann, who was elected President in June, 1908, by untiring efforts, succeeded in regaining such of the old members as could be found, added many new names to the roster and injected a spirit of patriotism and work.

Other "loving work for other children" was noted in the January number of the AMERICAN MONTHLY MAGAZINE.

Book Notes

JOHN PRICE, THE EMIGRANT, JAMESTOWN COLONY, 1620, WITH SOME OF HIS DESCENDants. By the Rev. Benjamin Luther Price. 8vo, pp. 62. Price, $1. Address author, Alexandria, La.

This concise genealogy of one branch of the Price family begins with a brief history of the family in Wales, gives the record of John Price, the emigrant, with some account of the next three generations, the line of Charles and James, of Virginia; the line of John Price, of Kentucky, and the line of Pugh Williamson Price, of Missouri. Revolutionary and Civil War records have been made as complete as possible. Copies of early wills and numerous biographical sketches add to the interest of the book. The arrangement is simple and easily understood, which is fortunate, as the book is without that most essential feature of every genealogy--an index.

GILES CARTER, OF VIRGINIA. A Genealogical Memoir. By Gen. William Giles Harding Carter. 8vo, pp. 134. Lord Baltimore Press, Baltimore, 1909.

The several Carter families, of Virginia, are mainly descended from John Carter, of Lancaster County; Giles Carter, of Henrico County, and Thomas Carter, of Lancaster County. This work deals with the Henrico County family, the direct line of descent from Giles Carter, born 1634, to the author being traced by means of wills, deeds, and other recorded county records, as well as by family Bibles. One chapter is devoted to noting numerous wills and documents referring to collateral branches, while other chapters treat of the Identification of Families, the Berkeley Hundred Colony, the Gloucestershire Colonists, etc. An index completes this interesting family record.
