MANY WORE FLOWERS
AS TESTIMONIAL
TO MOTHER

Mothers Day was fittingly
and probably more generally OBJ
served in Annapolis yesterday
than in any previous year. Not
only was special reference made
TO the occasion in the several
churches, but the citizens almost
generally marked it by wearing
a flower of either white or colored
hue; the white in honor of de-
parted mothers. and colored for
those still living.
Many persons also carried flow
ers TO the cemeteries and deco
rated the graves of the departed
maternal parent. Several of the
clergy preached special sermons
touching upon the occasion.

ANCIENT CITY IS cHAN-cHAN
Today Nothing but a Mass Of Ruins,
but Was FIourishin0 Before Pr
xarro Ravished Peru.

Chan-Chan Is not, as the name
would indicate, place in China. 1t
Is one Of the oldest cities in Peru, or
In the world. The Chimus, who built
anChan, are supposed to have been
an elderly race when the Incas were
yet barbarians. After time the In
cas- became civilized and powerful and
captured Chan-Chan. Then Pizarro
came to plumber and wrhck the city
and massacre the inhabitants. So
much of the Chimus' history Is de-
Quoted from the remains of Chan-Chan
and old Spanish narratives.
The people who inhabited the old
metropolis were moon worshipers.
The moon, they said, was the most
worthy deity Of nature, for 1t shone
not only at night but also in the day,
whereas the sun could shine in the
day only. The sea was supposed to
be under the special protection Of the
moon, because the latter controlled
the tides. Images Of fish and other
sea creatures and temples to both
moon and sea were therefore built by
the Chimus and many have been un-
covered In the ruins Of their city.
Chan-Chan has since the time OF Pr
zarro been a heap Of wreckage. There
are palaces, workshops, factories and
great battered pyramids built up in
terraces and surmounted by buildings.
These are the mounds In which the
Chimu dead once lay Like the Egyp-
tians. these people buried with their
dead many articles of their personal
property From one of these mounds
Spanish adventurer obtained 3d.
100000 worth Of gold and silver. For
many years Chan-Chan yielded to the
Spanish conquerors fabulous sums OF
gold

EARLY BREEDING ADVOCATED
Lambs Born in Spring Get One or Two
Months Of Mothers Milk Before
Fighting Worms.

Early breeding, in order that lambs
may be old enough to offer strong re-
sistance to worms when they are turned
on pasture, is advocated by the Ne
braska College of Agriculture. Ewes
bred in October and November will
lamb In March and April. This will
give the lambs from one to two months
on their mothers milk and on grain be-
fore they have to combat worms. The
principal objection to early lambing Is
the necessity of having q good barn.
However, the expense and trouble from
early Landing are more than offset by
the ability of the lambs to survive the
worm season. Extra feeding of ewes
during the breeding season is urged
Well-fed ewes are more likely to pro-
duce twins.

somehow that his whole search for the
man who had killed Miss Lutan had
