FRANK CR0MPTON
VISITS IN OTTAWA

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Crompton, Of
Superior. Wis, are the guests of rel
atves and friends in Ottawa for a

Mr. Crompton, who is well known
Ottawa boy, was for a number of
years mayor of Superior, and during

more to promote and advance the in.

man for many years past.
Superior is now a city Of 10000 in

Mr.. Crompton is now member OF

EFFORTS TO GET STAY ON DE-
CiSiON UNAvAlLING-COMMlS-
SiONER HELFFRiCH DECLARES
TRAFFIC MUST DISCONTINUE
DURING PAVING WORK.

Upon the theory that precedents dc
not establish right, the city, thru
Commissioner Helffrich, will author
i2e the abandonment OF al lterur-
ban traffic over the new loop paw
ing for at least two seventy-two hour
periods. This was determined last
night at an informal meeting of the
council called at the behest of Gen
eral Superintendent F. f. Fisher
Power to take the step has been
placed in the hands of Commissioner
Helffrich and Public Engineer George
l.. Farnsworth. both of whom as well
are confident that all cars should be
prevented from running across the
newly laid paving until the grout has
had plenty time to tie firm bond
between the bricks Commissioner
Helffrich believes the matter should
be carried a little further and that
traffic cease while the concrete base
is setting, but there is a probability
that such step is not as necessary
as when the bond is green.
The meeting last night was com
position of fireworks and unity o.
opinion Superintedent Fisher. a:
we'll as members of the commission
agreed that it would be better to
abandon traffic while the bond was
hardening The only differences be-
ing found in each appraisal of the
amount of damage done. Mr.. Fisher
did not see that the heavy cars coulC
do enough harm to the paving to war
rant the Inconvenience his company
and the travelling public would be
put to. Members of the council, with
the exception of the mayor who, hav
! ing been absent at previous meet
ing when this question was up, as
sumed the guise of silent listener
Only now and then he inquired fol
some information for his own en-
1
lightenment.
Commissioners Campbell, Meagher
and Helffrich, backed by the opinion
of Mr.. Farnsworth all expressed
themselves as confident there coulC
be nothing but harm come to the pave
ment If the large cars were permitte
TO travel back and forth across tn
newly paved sections.

MOTHERS DAY WILL
 BE OBSERVED HERE

National Mothers day is to be ap- propriately celebrated in Seward next Sunday.
 In 1908 a Mothers day was first generally recognized. The idea soon became very popular among various organizations and churches. In 1912 the General Conference of the Mctho dist Episcopal ehurcA adopted the plan officially and chose the second Sunday in May as Mothers day
 Throughout the states people wear white camation in honor of mother, general custom is now everywhere practired throughout the nation of writing mother a letter on the day set aside to especially remember her. In asmuch as flowers blossom later in Alaska than the second Sunday in May, we should wear a white ribbon as an emblem of the nature of the one who loved us best. Rev. Patton stated this afternon that Mothers day would be appropriate celebrated a. the Methodist chrrch both morning ana evening next Sunday. The music will be hymns especially in memory of mother.
