while they here All other civic organizations and
the public generally should be animated by the same
spirit
II our city is to have widespread publicity, it cannot
obtain IL in any better way than through the holding
here Of a convention composed of men who as a rule
have emnence in the solving of great municipal
problems Wilmington has many attractions for visitors
Even Of technical mind will find much here to in,
terest them BY the token, city should profit
greatly by the exchange of expert thought that will
be the most prominent feature of the convention All
of city officials should plan to attend the
sessions of the convention to listen attentlyely and
intelligenuy to the discussions and apply to the
government OF city, far it may be possible,
the good things which may be brought out
The society has in its membership many of the
greatest municipal engineers in the United States If
not in the world. They purposeful men who meet
for serious and intelligent discussion of municipal
questions. No who is equipped mentally to dis
charge the business OF a municipal Office attend
one Of their ntions without learning much o.
value that mal applied proftably in the work he

improvements come up for discussion increases the
beneficial effect of the convention work
For the time being, however the great duty OF
Wilmnetonians to make ample preparations for the

that is bad and unpleasant will be pursued in the camp

This most beautiful idea and senti-
ment originated with Miss Anna jar

thought occurred to her in 1908. when

Miss Jarvis wrote letter express
ing her views to a Philadelphia news
paper, and the idea became an in
Simultaneous success, growing each
year, until now Mothers Day is al.
most as widely observed as Memor-
ial Day.
Mothers Day will doubtlessly be
extensively observed In La Junta In
the way OF floral tributes. AS IL will
all over the United States. The
sentiment connected with the oh
servance OF the day Is such that ev-
cry one responds Even the tough
old sinner is minded to open his
heart and his pocketbook.
Ii has become the custom to have
special services In the churches on
Mothers Day. Rev. Emanuel Payne.

issued an announcement OF an ap
