SERMONS PREACHED
IN MOTHERS MEMORY
Thousands of Carnations Are in
Evidence at Churches and
on Streets.

The heavy rain yesterday morning
greatly, lessened the attendance at
church services, but the spirit of
Mothers day was greatly in evil
dence in the worship. Beautiful ser
mons, paying tribute to mothers
were preached in several of the
churches. The carnation, the
symbolic flower of mothers day, was
in evidence at the services as well
as elsewhere, thousands of the fra
grant blossoms being worn in honor
and memory of mothers.
And all this is the result of a ST.
lent campaign started and carried on
by a little woman in Philadelphia,
Miss Anna Jarvis, whose devotion to
her own mother in life and to her
memory in death has caused her to
touch the hearts of millions in a plea
for a worldwide tribute to the
mothers.
Last year, on the second Sunday
in May, and through Miss Jarvis in
strumentality between 100000
and 100000 people throughout the
United States celebrated this festival
Governor Deneen of Illinois was one
of the many governors who issued
proclamatfons for the observance of
this day.

Those of the officers of the society
who constitute the retiring admins
tration, and who will sever their con-

sophically. They simply say that what

is such thing as victory in defeat"
said Miss Myrtle Dade. the retiring
supreme recorder who has been with

The Denver convention made some
radical changes in the rules OF govern

there will be twelve assess
