PARADE BIG FEATURE
OF SIS. CONVENTION
Every Department of the
Work to be Represented
in Line at Parkersburg.

PARKERSBURG, W! Va, April IL
Preparations for the entertainment of
the 1900 delegates who will invade this
city to attend the Thirty.Fitth An.
nua1 conventions of the West Virginia
Sunday School association. May 8, 0,
10, are under full Roadway and moth
ing Is being left undone by the gen.
eral committee, and various sub-com.
mittees that will make this the great.
est event in the history of the associ-
alton.
One OF the most important features
that is being planned is the great pa.
rade that will take place at GAS
o'clock on the evening Of May s, the
first day of the convention which is
expected to eclipse any pageant of this
or any other character that has ever
been attempted In the state.
II is planned that every department
OF Sunday school work shall be repre-.
scented on an important scale from the
cradle roll up to the home department.
The primary, Junior, elementary, teen
age, mems Bible classes, other adult
classes will represent various divisions
Of the parade. In addition to the
1900 visiting delegates who are ex,
pected tobe here every Sunday school
both in Parkersburg. and its various
suburbs are to be represented.
Floats of an attractive character
will add greatly to the attractiveness
of the pageant, while it is expected to
have several bands that will help to
make the great parade something that
will attract the kesnest interest. 1t is
the confident belief that the number
who will participate including the visi,
tors a dnmembers of local Sunday
schools will be upward of tire thou,
sand people.

Long ago he saw the need for a sinai!

intimate" as the name for theatre
he proposed building. All his work
in this direction was done at his own
expense. He was content to slave in
stock and in productions to earn the
money necessary to stage dramas OF
real artistic merit, and after putting
on "high-brow" play he went back to
the routine Of popular productions un-
til he had saved enough TO make anoth

A year before Richard Mansfield pro-

Berkeley Lyceum and put on several
scenes from that play. After an en-

CONVINCE THE WOMEN, FIRST.

DR.. Anna Shaw realizes that it is the women
who do not want the vote who have defeated
the suffrage movement in the states where it
has not prevailed A majority of the men will
vote to enfranchise women soon as major
ity of the women ask them to- Sex antagonism
is not and never has been an important factor
in the struggle. In fact it is doubtful if there
is any such thing Whatever the women Of
this country have wanted they have obtained
Whatever they may desire henceforward in the
way of civil rights will be theirs for the ask
ing. They have only to see clearly what they
need and unite in their request.
1t would seem therefore as though the suf-
frage leaders would do VIII to devote their
principal efforts to converting the women of the
land. It is pleasanter no doubt to argue with
the men, but the surest and speediest way, if
not the only way, is to win the women first

OLD LOCATIONS AND TRADE.

There are always some merchants who think
they can win out as q result Of the favorable To-
cation of their store. They are so situated that
an unusual number of people pass by Also
they have held the same position for many
years. and they think people are used to finding
their way inside.
But if they would count the number of peo
pie who pass and those who enter, they would
be surprised to see how small proportion they
get. They need to do something else besides
sitting passivly by the side of the thoroughfare.
Also it is surprising how easily a store in an
unfavorable or even favorable place can cor
raj business by advertising. People like to go
out of their way if they can thereby get an ad-
vantage in buying. They boast to each other of
the new place they have found where goods
can be bought to excellent advantage. 1t only
takes a little advertising, just a few announce
ments of bargains, just little impression of
hustle to divert the trade current

There was, apparently, nothing Tor

site of their new settlement the VIII
lage of Commerce. on the Mississippi
river. they founded the city of Nauvoo.
In the ensuing winter the Illinois leg
isiature granted them extraordinary
privileges. Their laws, within their
own settlement, were to be paramount
to the laws Of the state; enormous
privileges were granted the mayor OF
Nauyoo, and an agricultural machine
manufacturing company, university
and hotel were chartered. Under
the acts Of the legislature, Joseph
Smith proceeded to act as mayor. gem

in American history. Without know

what he was going to find. he divided
his party into three sections. and set
out across the plains. The hardships
and sufferings OF these pilgrims were
great, but their triumph over adverse
circumstances was greater still. In
