LOCAL OBSERVANCE
of Mothers Day Is Evidenced
by the Wearing of White
Carnations.
SILENT TRIBUTE WAS PAIl

Sunday was Mothers Day. Many
states had officially recognized the
day and their executives issued re-
quest that it be properly observed. Its
observance was general in this city
and many persons wore carnations as
a silent tribute to the memory of their
mothers 1t is designed that the day
be purely for one of remembrance.
The outward token of It's recognition
is the wearing of white carnation. a
testimonial to the world that mothers
love is not an unrequited sacrifice.
The idea of observing the second
Sunday in May as Mothers Day orig.
mated with Miss Anna Jarvis Phila-
delphia school teacher, two years ago
Sunday witnessed it's observance the
world over. The ministers in every
city touched on the matter in their
sermons. 1t is hoped to arouse enough
interest in. the movement to make
its observance on the second Sunday
in May an annual affair and on that
day to hold in reverence the sweetest
of all human names. and the most
beautiful of human recollections.

not far behind. An illustration of
this is shown in the construction of our
first vessel of the Dreadnought type.
1t had a displacement of 10000 tons,
1000 tons greater than the English
vessel of the same type. England
soon launched another 200 tons great
err. Then came the Utah with a dis
placement of 21,s25 tons, ind England
following it with the Colossus, which
has a displacement of 22,5OO TONS BY
1912 the British government expects
to have twelve Dreadnoughts e-aila
BILE for service and equipment with ten
Pinch guns each. This is to keep up
with Germany's rapid stride. Although
the latter country has not as many YES
sells of the Dreadnought type, the arm
ament of the German ships is slightly
heavier as they carry twelve Pinch
guns of the Dreadnought type instead
of ten. This is the same number OF
guns that the Arkansas and Wyoming
will carry.

The five hundred residences which

those which We're reported to the

awards. The Commercial club in sup
porting this measure determined to
have eight certificates of merit made
which would be given to the caretaker
of the cleanest yard in each ward. In
addition to this there will be number
of awards of honorable mention.
Each Ward to be Visited.

making answer, the older ship would
not seriously injure the Florida in an
hours time. The old types of guns on
range of about four and half miles,
while the new Pinch rifles on the
Florida are effective at distance of
seven miles. These guns fire project
lie weighing $40 pounds at a speed OF
2 800 yards a second when it leaves
the muzzle. At a distance of four and
a half miles this projectile penetrates
eleven inches of Krupp steel armor.
But the Florida is not the last word
in battleships by any means. The
Wyoming and Arkansas now in course
of construction, the former at Cramps
in Philadelphia, and the latter in Cam
den will have a displacement of 10000
tons each, and instead of ten 12-inch
guns will carry twelve of these death
dealing monsters. When complete they
will be the largest and most powerful
battleships in the world.
1t is safe to assume that the two
battleships which will undoubtedly be
authorized by the present congress and
which will in all probability be named
the Nevada and the Oklahoma, will be
still more powerful. In support of this
theory the recent gun tests show that
14-inch guns can be placed on vessels
and fired without danger to the occu
pants of the turrets. The two new
vessels will undoubtedly have guns OF
this tyne. These guns would weigh
slxty-three tons each with a charge OF
1865 pounds of powder, would discharge
shells weighing 1,4OO pounds with a
muzzle velocity of 1900 feet second
This will set another pace for naval
construction, and 1t is safe to assume
that England will either be ahead OF

Aneient Sacrifice. to the Sea.

The navigators of antiquity, to
whose imaginative ignorance the ocean
seemed peopled and beset with CHI
meras dire and supernatural agen-
cies Of all sorts. used often to sacrifice
human lives to the mysterious water
gods. 1t is regarded by tradition that
Idomeneus. king of Crete, vowed to
sacrifice to Neptune the first living
thing he met after escaping from a
storm, and, this happening to be his
son, he fulfilled his vow religiously.
Medea nearly became q sacrifice dur

nauts.
