CHURCH SERVICES
HONOR MOTHERS
Sunday is the Time Set Apart in Which
to Show Gratitude and Love
to Parents of Land.
BADGE Is WHITE CARNATION
Local Congregations Prepare Pro.
grams of Song. Sermon and
Readings to Observe Day.
Tomorrow is Mothers Dav.


On May 10, 1913, a special resolu-
ton was passed by the United States
congress and senate recommending
the general observance of Mothers
day. Its object is an international and
simultaneous observance of the well
being and the honor of the home. 1t
is TO be observed through some dis
gift or tribute showing remembrance
Of the mother and father to whom
grateful affection is due. 1t is de-
signed to strengthen and perpetuate
all family ties. The slogan adopted
for the day is The best mother who
ever lived" and the badge is white
carnation.
It was a postage stamp that inaug-
urated the movement, when Miss An
ma Jarvis of Philadelphia mailed a
note to a friend asking her to spend
Sunday with her to commemorate
the date of her mothers death. 1t was
then that the daughter disclosed her
desire TO perpetuate the custom and
TO dedicate a day to all mothers
Through her efforts, and she met with
many rebuffs, the resolution was fin
ally passed by congress. An interna-
tional association has since been or
ganized TO promote and encourage the
observance of Mothers day in all civ
ilized countries of the globe. In the

ROCK ISLAND BOY
TO ENTER SCHOOL
Wilmer L. Cox Successfully Passes
Rigid Entrance Examination for
Annapolis.
is APPOINTED BY TAvENNER
ONLY One Out OF Sixteen Nominated
to Come Up to High Mental
Standard Required.

Wilmer T. Cox, 17-year-old son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. H. L, Cox, 73l Nine
teenth street, Rock Island, has passed
the rigid entrance examination for adj
mission to the United States Navy
academy at Annapolis and will enter
the institution June l.
Word to this effect was received this
morning by his parents. Mr.. Cox was
appointed by Congressman Clyde II.
Tavenner. 1t is interesting to note
that out of 16 young men named by
Mr.. Tavenner, Mr.. Cox is the only one
who has been able to meet the severe
mental test which is required for en-
trance into Uncle Sans noted naval
school.
Mr.. Cox attended Rock Island high
school for three years. He received his
appointment from Congressman Tav-
enner last fall and from Oct. l to
April Is, took special instruction in
the Severn school, Boone, Maryland, a
preparatory institution. On April 18,
10 and 20, he returned home and took
the entrance examination, which it is
learned today he passed with excellent
grades.
To Get Fine Training.
The training which the young man
will receive at the naval academy will
last for four years and will finely
equip him for life's work, not only
from mental but from a physical
standpoint as well, the curricula be-
ing on par with that of the best uni
versities in the United States.
Rock Island has two other boys who
took the Annapolis test within the last
few years, Frank and Jay HuntOon,
sons of ]. G. Huntoon, general man
ager of the Tri-City Railway company.
The former received his appointment
from Congressman James Mckinley
,ahd graduated a year ago and the lat
ter was nominated by Senator L. Y.
Sherman and is still in the school.

ROUTED FROM BEDS
TO PUT OUT BONFIRE

A stubborn bonfire, which refused
to stay out when put out, was respon-
sible for the firemen being summoned
from their beds at lao this morning
and when the ladies arrived at the
spot two buckets of water was suffic-
lent to squelch the pesky blaze. Dur
ing the day some rubbish had been
burned in an alley in the rear of
Frank Talbloom's residence at 723
Fifth street. 1t seems that the fire
broke out afresh in the early morn

flames became alarmed and summoned
the department.

is BELIEVED A PROFESSIONAL

Rev. Peter P. Kluck, pastor of St.
Mary's church, corner of Twenty-sec-
ond street and Fourth avenue, caught
a burglar in the church at 10 o'clock
this morning, took him to his residence
and held him until police arrived.
Frank Sullivan, young man,
claiming that he is from Galesburg
and Dubuque, was attempting to rob
the poor boxes in the church when
Father Kluck entered. The pastor
went to him and secured a hold on
him, leading him to his residence just
east of the church. He called the DO
lice and Patrolmen Kinney and
kirsch arrested Sullivan.
Sullivan's clothes were taken off at
the station and the police searched
the garments carefully. A screw driy-
er was found secreted in the sleeve
of his coat. Police said that he used
the tool to aid him in robbing the
boxes.
Thought Professional.
Authorities declared that they be-
lieved that Sullivan is a professional
church burglar and an investigation
will be made into mis- past. Only a
small amount of money was found on
him and it is not known whether he
was successful in securing any loot.
Sullivan made no denial of the &C.
cusation when he was booked at the
police headquarters.
