Annual Mothers Day.

Ohe OF the features. not down on the
regular program. which promises to
arouse considerable enthusiasm is the
proposition advanced by Miss Anna Jar
Wis. well-known club woman of Pima
delphia-namely. the establishment of an
annual Mothers day" She has secured
permission to bring the matter before the
congress. and has also written to PreS-
her project. In talking little about it.
what it was. and what AN annual Moth
erS day would mean. Miss Jarvis said:
Its to be one day just-juSt for peo-
pies mothers-a day when men and Wom-
en- and little children. too. are to think
about their mothers, write to them. give
them little presents. perhaps.
Its to be a day when the one i'm
portant person in the world is somebody S
mother. when every man and every wom-
an thinks of his OF her mother first Of
who matters most to every one, and
whose happiness is being sought
The second Sunday in May is the time
which Miss Jarvis has suggested as
Mothers day" and she has mentioned
as characteristic little symbol of the
days significance that every one wear
a white carnatiOn in observance of the
day
But the celebration of Mothers day.
it has been thought out by Miss Jar
Wis and as the members of the Mothers
Congress have taken it up, is by no
means to be confined to the wearing of
pretty flowers and the thinking of pleas
ant thoughts.
THAT would be merely sentimental. and
the real Mothers Day is to be much more
than that, said one of its advocates.

Other Plans Considered.

And SO the women who are interested in
it's establishment have suggested other OBJ
servances for the day. For the young
people who live at home and whose
mothers are there with them it is easy
enough-lttle words of kindness and con-
sideration and appreciation to take the
place of the careless neglect of every day;
thoughtful acts. flowers. gifts. perhaps
the devotion of days thoughtfulness
just to the mother
Then there are the young people who
are away from home-at school or in
business living themselves. perhaps, in
some "thrd-story back" on a city street
and homesick at times.
IF they would write to their mOthers-

TRACkAGE e.

Property adjacent to the railroad
tracks has been in greater demand than
ever this year, and some fine ware
houses are under construction. the larg-
est being that of the Salt Lake Hard
ware company, at the end of the North
Temple viaduct, now being completed at
cost of S250,000. The Crane COMPANY
is about to start on a large warehouse
and building at Second South and Sec
ond West, and many smaller ones will
begin with the opening of spring.
While the building inspectors records
Tor the year show that only about s4.-
100000 has been invested in building in
the city during the year, il is safe to
say That the actual figures are nearly
double that, as owners usually have one
eye on the assessor when taking out a
building permit Most of this money is
local capital. although there has been
some buying of real estate by outside
investors.
The real estate situation is an ideal
one from the conservative standpoint
OF trust company. viz: a gradually
increasing value. based on income-pro-
ducing power, and having as a basis
the substantial growth of the city.
very few foreclosures have taken place
during the year, and those only where
made necessary to straighten out q III
tie by reason of death or failure in
business. The only danger in the situ-
alton is that people will suddenly wake
up 10 the future possibilities and in A
burst of enthusiasm OverGo the matter.
and then We would have 70 wait a few
years, before going ahead again.

obtaining employment. He will find
more and better opportunities in Salt
Lake City than almost anywhere else.
With all these factors contributing to
the growth of the city and its mainten-
ance on sound and prosperous basis.
real estate is necessarily an attractive
form of investment, open to rich and
poor alike. Values increase steadily
and surely, and in many instances with
wondrous rdpidity.
These are only a few of the reasons
why Salt Lake City should draw per-
sons. strictly from money making
standpoint. Vast fortunes have been
made here in the last few years, and
they are small i'm number and size COM
pared with the fortunes that will be
made in the next few years.
Turning to the other factors which go
TO make up a desirable place of residence
first comes the general surroundings.
Where Is there more beautifully located
city than Salt Lake? Any person who
stands on Federal Heights for example.
and views the sweep of the valley. with
the rugged. serrated. snow-capped Wa
satch range on one side the undulating.

sinuous, shimmering ribbon of the Jor-
dan winding through the center. the broad.
sheeny waters of the great inland dead
sea OF the western hemisphere at its out
let and the rich green of the farms and
the trees stretching beyond the outlines
of the buildings of the city, cannot fail
to exclaim over the wonders of the nat
ural beauties of Salt Lake City and its
surroundings.

APARTMENT HOUSES.

The long-delayed apartment house
question has been receiving attention
this year, and upwards of twenty of
these have been erected. Some of them
are on large scale, the largest being
the Woodruff, on Second East, contain
ing fifty-five apartments. The others
range in size from six to twenty apart
mentS each They are all of pressed
brick, and add to the metropolitan ap-
pearance- They are all occupied as soon
as finished, and are a boon to those
rentpayers, who have no children, and
who want to be close to the business
center. There has been about $500. 900
invested in them this year, many of
them divided up into small holdings
through the medium of stock compa-
MES, thus enabling the smaller investors
to own and share in the profits of large
realty holdings. Those investments.
where wisely made, are yielding upward
of II per cent per annum on the invest
ment.
