MOTHERS ARE THE
BEST CITIZENS
Roosevelt Puts Them Above Ciyll
War Veterans.

washington, ID. Z. tSpecial) Inc
White House was the scene OF the
formal opening of the First Interna-
tional Congress on the Welfare OF
the Child, which is being held under
the auspices of the National Mothers
Congress.
The 200 delegates. representing all
the states and territories and a dozen
or more of the leading countries OF
the world, were received at the
White House at 2.30 o'clock p NJ,
when President Roosevelt delivered an
address to them, in which he declar-
ed that he placed the society ahead
of the Civil War veterans, because,
he said, In the final analysis, 1t is
the mother only who Is better citi-
zen that the soldier who fights for his
country.
The President said, in part:
''I receive many societies here in
the White House, many organizations
of good men and women, striving to
do all that in them lies for the better
ment of our social and civic condi-
tion, but there Is no other society
which l am quite as glad to receive
as this. This is the one body that
| put even ahead of the veterans of
the Civil War, because when all is
said IL is the mother, and the mother
only who is a better citizen even
than the soldier who fights for his
country.
THE successful mother, the mother
who does her part in rearing and
training Alright the boys and girls
who are to be the men and women
of the next generation, is of greater
use to the community and occupies,
II she only would realize It, more
honorable, as we'll as a more import
ant position, than any successful man
in II.
The Mothers Reward.
Nothing in this life that is really
worth having comes save at the cost
of effort. No life of self-indulgence,
of mere vapid pleasure can possibly,
even in the one point of pleasure
itself, yield so ample a reward as
comes to the mother at the cost OF
self-denial, of effort of suffering in
childbirth, of the long, slow, pa
tience-trying work of bringing up the
children Alright.
mo scheme of education, no sucial
attitude, can be right unless ii is
based fundamentally upon the recog-
milton of seeing that the girl is train
ed to understand the supreme dig.
nifty, the supreme usefulness, OF
motherhood. Unless the average
woman is a good wife and good moth
er, unless she bears a sufficient num-
ber of children. so that the race shall
increase and not decrease, unless she
brings up these children sound in
soul and mind and body, unless this
is true of the average woman, no
brilliancy of genius. no material pros
perity, no triumphs of science and
industry will avail to save the race
from ruin and death.
THE mother is the one supreme as
set of national life; she is more i'm
portant by far than the successful
statesman or business man or artist
or scientist.
II abhor and condemn the man who
is brutal, 'houghtless, careless, sell
fish, with women. and especially with
the women of his own household

Fisherman Hooks A willing Trout

Millville, N. j. Especially Miss
Belinda Blinks, considered one of
the most adept makers of trout flies
in the local fishing tackle factory,
sent out with a packet of her work
a pleasant little note, which read:
IF the sportsman who reads this
wants wife and will throw hook
to this town he will find little trout
waiting to jump at the bait"
The message fell into the hands
of August Bass, of Detroit, who at
once made the longest cast on record,
and after a short time landed Miss
Belinda. She did not put up much
of a fight, and came in so easily that
no landing net was required.
The wedding will take place next
month.

CAPTAIN CARRIERS ORDERS.

Probably the only really unpleasant
features of the reception of the fleet
came through orders issued by Captain
Carter of the tug. Iroquois, the Homo
lulu Naval Station tender, to exclude
everybody from the Oceanic wharf dur.
ing and after the docking of the flag
ship Connecticut. This not only caused
pilikia for persons who had business
aboard, but was particularly offensive
to others whose business compelled
them to get aboard as early as prac-
ticable. Captain Carter first of all ex.
cluded members of the press, and at
forwards sent Lieut.. Fay of the Marine
Corps to carry out his order explicitly.
Lieut.. Fay told the people crowding
about the entranc s to the dock to move
back and when representatives of the
advertiser and Star asked whether that
order included them, Lieut.. Fay re-
piled:
"'Captain Carter ordered everybody
out, and particularly members of the
press. +"
When asked again who gave such an
order the officer stated i. was Captain
Carter, and repeated the order. The
press members left the dock. But the
pilikia was not over. The entertain
ment committee endeavored to pass
through the gates, but owing to the
fact that Captain Carter had failed
to remove the restriction, although the
Connecticut had been locked some time
and Captain Rees, commandant of the
Naval Station had paid his respects and
departed, they were detained. Finally
an automobile was pressed into service
and delegation waited on Captain
Rees at the Naval Station. That officer
courteously sent an orderly with the
committee to pass them through the
gates and to the gangway of the yes.

including Messrs. Waldron, Harrington,

win the yachts arrive this weeki
Today they are out thirteen days from
the port of departure and Captain Sin
Glars dinner, ordered for the night of
the 18th, at the Young Hotel, will be
ready for him.
From the account of the trip of the
oil steamer Rosecrans, which arrived
here last night, it would appear that
the strong trades which have been
blowing here Tor the past week are
not blowing at sea more than two hnn-
dred miles away from the Islands.
Captain Gus Holmes of the Rose
Grams, who is much interested in the
yacht race and kept a sharp lookout
for the boats, thinks that slow time
will be made lie left Monterey two
days after the yachts left San Pedro
and reports that for the first day rough
weather was encountered For the
rest of the trip, which took eleven
days, there was no wind to speak Of
and the sea was as smooth as glass
until within couple of hundred miles
of the Islands. He, of course, was lot
so far south as the yachts, but is of
the opinion that the same weather m
countered by the Rosecrans was expe'
rienced by the racers. If this is the
case, twenty days will be time enough
for the boats to arrive in. 1t has rot
been che Hawaii IS weather, and the
Gwendolyn III. may beat out her larger

Lessons of the
Honolulu Voyage

Admiral Sperry took full advantage
of the opportunity given him to put his
battleships through fleet evolutions on
the run down from the Coast. 1t was
the first real ocean cruise for him in
command of fleet, although he took
charge in time to sail the battleships
from San Francisco to the Sound. The
short run between coaling ports gave
him a unique opportunity to drill his
ship commanders and their officers,
knowing that the extra coal needed in
turning maneuvers, speeding in forma-
ton, four hundred yards from mizzen
to mizzen, and in quick reversals-the
maneuvers fleet would be required to
execute in action-could be replenish-
ed here in Honolulu. If the voyage
had been longer one, requiring eco
nomical coal consumption, the very
beneficial evolutions could not have
been performed.
AS it was, however, Admiral Sperry
was able to have daily maneuvers of
his sixteen vessels, putting them
through the formations of battle. For
two hours each day the great shooting
platforms were turned, wheeled, ad-
vanced and withdrawn as the signals
from the flagship few.
The deck officers were put in com
mand of the ships at times, instead of
the captains going on the bridge in
command themselves, as is generally
done when evolutions out of the ordi-
nary are going forward. Then the va
rious watch officers We're on duty, see
ing what was being done, noting the
, orders given and the work of the crews,
learning through example later to be
put into practise, how battleship
should be handled.
AS result the officers of the Allan
tic fleet are better drilled today in feet
and ship management than the officers
of the American Navy of modern times
have ever been, earning for themselves
in the later maneuvers the encomiums
of their admiral.
The trip down was made under beau
tiful weather conditions, the Pacific liv-
ing up to its name and never inter
fering in wantonness with the work of
the four divisions. There were no I'M
