Another important feature Of the
days festivities will probably be de-
cided at the meeting tonight. It was
proposed some time ago that the scene
of the festivities he changed from Han
cock to Electric park provided the per
mission of Rev. ri. Bishop Els could
be secured to hold a field mass at that
place. II is thought that Electric park
would be an excellent place for the
members OF the society and their fam
lilies To meet. The first plan was to
have the members attend mass i'm the
morning, following the usual parade.
The members would then adjourn to
the Hancock park where they could
enjoy their lunch and afterwards take
part IN the exercises. In the evening
il has been planned that the speaker
would deliver his address at the Ker-
redge theater.

DIRT A CRIME.

Dirt is our universal sin. Not
only health. but morals likewise,
suffer in its presence. Civic
pride for a dirty city is the worst
form OF false pride. A reform Of
; habits tending toward a lack Of
cleanliness Is a crying need OF
most municipalities. Careless
, and dirty habits Of citizens call
for unnecessary expenditure OF Z
public funds. make for higher
tax rates and therefore for high
er rents. Give this matter a
thought Citizens themselves. not
the city authorities. are respon-
sible for street litter. A street
can be Uttered by a few careless
people much faster than il can be
cleaned.
The proper treatment for Of d.
tenders OF this type is for an Of
6cer OF the law TO take the Of
fender in hand and compel him
or her 10 PICK up the inter ana
deposit it In one Of the recep-
tacles provided for such waste.
Another class OF persons who
persistently violate the law are =
storekeepers who sweep their
wastes into the streets. Such Of
tenders should he promptly ar
rested and heavily fined. A few
such examples VIII have the de-
sired effect.

SECRETARY LANE
 MAY STOP IN YUMA

J. H. Westover, president of the Commercial Club, Monday, being ad- vised from Washington that Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane was at Reno, New, on his visit to the Carson project, wired him an invita- tion upon behalf of the Commercial Club to pay visit to Yuma on his swing around the circle.
 The Commercial Club is very anx- ous to have the secretary visit Yuma at this time and see the magnificent crop of oranges on the Yuma Heights ranch, which are just coming into ripened fruit It is expected and also hoped that the secretary will stop in Yuma, if only for a day. Advice to that effect is expected today.
