BOSTON, Mass, May AT the ses-
sion Of the one hundred and twenty
second annual convention of the Pro-
testant Episcopal Diocese Of Massa-
chusetts the committee appointed last
year TO consider public morals report
ed. In part, as follows;
1--WE call upon parents 10 feel their
sacred responsibility for judicious In
struction of children as to sex and
the relation Of personal purity 10
health and happiness. Parents should
know the companions OF their children,
especially the young mon with whom
their daughters are acquainted.
"A serious responsibility rests upon
the church. Clergymon should teach
positively the glory Of purity. Thev
should insist upon a single standard
for men aAd women and urge the re-
formation OF the social code in this
respect
THE ambition standards Of social
life ana the Increased cost of living
are largely responsible for the post
ponement of marriages. and late mar
riages are In part answorahle for i'm
morality. The average age of the first
marriage OF men has. within a cen-
tury. changed from % years TO q
years. Public sentiment should honor
young people who are willing to en-
dure comparative poverty and priva-
tion in order to establish a home"

GREAT FUTURE FOR CITY

In April the jamestown Exposition,
in celebration Of the sOOth anniversary
Of the settlement OF America, was
opened with great pomp. From one
standpoint It may be looked upon as
the worlds greatest real estate move
ment, and IL is noteworthy that it
was advertised as such from the bo-
ginning. IL was cheap lands, with
great possibilities Of increase in value.
that was held out as an inducement 70
settlers uDon the Virginia plantations
The realization of the somewhat con-
fused dreams Of the original promoters
Of America. has outrun. by a million to
one, their highest hopes.
The people who settled at Jamestown
were right In regarding the settlement
as real estate proposition; they were
right in regarding the opening of a
virgin continent as a road TO the devel-
opment of inimitable wealth. Every
/ day, since the first settlement in.1607.
| the bulk OF the wealth of the continent
| has been derived from the application
/ OF increasing population to the devel-
opment of the resources contained in
its land.
Our Wealth Increases
Values have risen in the course Of
300 years. from nothing TO billions.
until riches have accumulated to an
| extent that commands the wonder Of
the world. This substantial wealth
that these three centuries have devel-
| oped, is largely I'm tho value Of land
and real estate. or based upon real
estate values.
The rise in the values Of the terri
| tory now embraced within the bound
aries OF the United States, is real
estate proposition. pure and simple
The wealth Of the successors of the
jamestown settlers is primarily real
estate wealth.
But let no one repine over the fact
that he was not i'm at the beginning Of
this worlds great real estate move
ment 300 years ago. After 300 years
of growth the development IS just be-
ginning. In 800 years the United States
has become the home OF a population
Of less than 100, 100000. 1t is capable
of supporting in luxury population
from Eve to ten times as great.
AS i'm the past population has in
creased the value of the land from
nothing to billions, so in the future the
increase win be in proportion.
Better day
It Is a much better time. today, to
settle IN the United States than it was
300 years ago. and the chances of real
estate Investment, for the natives. are
better than they ever have been, he
cause the growth OF the next few years
win far exceed the average of the past
300 years.
/ In whatever concerns the develop
ment Of the country, during the years
to come. no locality win participate
more fully than Wilmington. There is
no city i'm a better position TO profit.
