The Mayors
Pr0cIamati on

1t has been proposed that Tacoma set aside day in
which to honor President Wilson for the high states
manship which has marked his handling of the inter-
national crisis that confronts this nation and in
which to express collective confidence in his u
ture course toward settlement of that great prob
lem.
1t seems perfectly fitting that the people of this
city thus lay aside for the time all feeling of political
partisanship and all feeling of bias toward one side
or the other engaged in the great European war.
/, therefore, as Mayor of Tacoma, do ask the peO
pie of this city to set aside Saturday, June 49, as
Woodrow Wilson Day.
Toward the end that the day be fttingly observed,
suggest that small American flag be worn on that
day by every loyal citizen that large flags and pic
lures of the President be displayed by our business
houses and in the windows of homes, that letters
expressive of confidence in the President be mailed
to him at the national capital and that the ministers
of the city touch on the subjects of patriotism and
unity in national life in their sermons of Sunday

Ogrodofck induced her to obtain
a divorce from her first husband

forced the young woman into a

After the six-month period had

to force her to remain In her
shameful vocation.

Slipping away from her hus-

WILSON DAY SATURDAY;
WHOLE TOWN BEHIND IT

The Woodrow Wilson day idea
captured the town.
Mayor Fawcett this noon gave
it official recognition by issuing
a proclamation calling on the peo'
pie of Tacoma to observe Satus-
day in honoring the president.
He asked Tacomans to wear liz
tie flags in their lapels, to dis
play big flags and pictures of the
president, to write letters EXPIRE :.
sive of their belief in the presi-
dents course and for the minis
tiers on Sunday to touch on the
subject.
Merchants of the city respond
ed Immediately to the suggestion,
Practically every store in the city
will have at least one window
dressed in honor of the president
One enthusiastic merchant said
he would decorate his entire
store.

representative houses in various
lines If they would have display

Wilson, entitled I'VE Are With

1t was published in The Times

has taken like wildfire with Ia
coma music lovers.
The song has a catchy, lifting
air that one will hum and whis-
