FAMOUS SEPTEMBER BIRTHDAYS

Mrs. Maude Ballington Booth known
throughout the United States for her help
full service in behalf of prisoners, before
and after their release, and co-worker
with her husband, Gen. Ballington Booth
in the Volunteers of America, was born
Sept. 13, 1865, at Limps6eld, Surrey, Eng
land, the daughter of the Rev. Samuel and
Maria Charlesworth. She was educated
in England and Switzerland and at the
age of seventeen went to Paris with
Catherine Booth, daughter of General
Booth, where they organized branch of
the Salvation Army. In 1886 she married
Ballington Booth and came to America,
where her work of prison and prisoners
reform is nationally known. She is a
forceful public speaker and is the author
of several books, among them, Branded"
"After Prison-What?" "Sleepy Time
Stories" and Twilight Fairy Tales"
Francis E. Clark, often called "Father
Endeavor Clark" founder of the Young
Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor
was born Sept. IL, 1851, at Aylmer,
Province of Quebec. At the age of eight
years he was left an orphan and was
adopted by his uncle, Rev. E. w. Clark,
in whose home, Christian associations and
influences inspired in him the desire to
become Christian minister. He received
his training at Andover Seminary and
Dartmouth College. For twelve years
after his graduation he was pastor, first of
mission at Portland, Me-, and later in
the Phillips Congregation church at Bos-
ton. In 1881, in the little mission at Will
liston, Maine, he organized the first Society
of Christian Endeavor. At the end of
twenty-five years the Christian Endeavor
had $1,000 local societies and less than
five years ago that number had grown to
10000 societies with a membership of
100000. 80

GOVERNOR ISSUES LABOR DAY
APPEAL

Governor Preus has issued proclama-
ton designating and setting aside Mon
day, September 5th, as Labor Day and
urging that not only labor but the public
generally on that day consider the prob
lens of the laborer and the relations of
labor to the public.
Labor is the foundation of our progress
and our civilization" the proclamation
reads "It is indeed essential to our very
existence. The unskilled toiler on the
street, the highly trained mechanic or
artisan, the scientist who burns the mid
night oil trying to devise means better to
supply needs of mankind, the executive
who plans and directs the efforts of others,
all are necessary workers in our indus
trial organization. When all these work
in harmony and when each puts forth his
best efforts in the work to which he is
best adapted, the world will see real
progress and the happiness of mankind
will be enhanced.
"State law and wise custom, however,
has set aside one day in each year to pay
homage to those who work with their
hands. 1t is most fitting that we pause

WERE You BORN THIS MONTH !?

September 20, Cheiro says you are, as
rule, successful in life, You have keen,
good intellect, are very discriminating
about those with whom you associate, and
in all business matters you have good
judgment and are not easily imposed upon
or deceived.
People born in this period are usually
materialistic in their views of life and
analyse and reason everything from their
own way of thinking outwards.
They make good literary critics, being
quick to see the weak points, and at the
same time are rapid readers and endowed
with wonderful memories.
They are extremely fond of harmony in
their surroundings, have excellent taste
want things elegant and in good taste.
They are not so apt to be originators
as they are to carry out some plan or work
that appeals to them, and which others
have failed to finish, and in the execution
of almost all things they put their minds
on they achieve success.
These people are fastidious about their
personal appearance, have great respect
for rank and position, and are great sup
porters of the law and the laws decisions.
In their love-nature, people in this sign
are very peculiar, the very best and the
very worst of men and women being
found among them. They are either in
tensely pure and virtuous or the extreme
opposite, but in either case so positive are
they in their views that all the preaching
in the world would not change them one
iota.
No women are more truly devoted than
those in this sign-nor more depraved.
People born in this period will find
their most lasting friendships with those
born in their own Sign, also from April
20 to May 20, February 19 to March 20,
and December 21 to January 20.
The colors most suitable for these people
are all very pale shades and silvery, SHIN

SEPTEMBER

September Sd is the anniversary of
the signing of one of the famous Treaties
of Paris-that of 1854 treaty which
closed the American Revolution and estab-
lished peace between Great Britain and
its former colonies along the Atlantic
coast. The United States was officially
recognized as an independent nation for
the first time. Franklin, Jay and Adams,
representing the United States, signed the
treaty, which secured to the new nation
the country west to the Mississippi river,
measuring from point west of the Lake
of the Woods to 81 degrees north latitude.
1t then ran irregularly east to the Atlantic.
The 4sth parallel was to be the northern
limit. The United States was to retain
its fishing rights in Newfoundland as well
as the exclusive right to fish on its own
sea coast. Congress agreed to restore the
estates con6scated during the war from
British loyalists, and to abandon further
prosecutions against them.
1t was on September Is, 1913, that the
first European looked upon the waters of
the Pacific ocean from Americas shores,
and that European was Vasco Nunez de
Balboa, a Spaniard. He had lost his for
tune in Spain, and had sailed to America
where he began at once search for a
great western ocean of which he had
heard the Indians speak, and upon whose
shores there was supposed to lie land of
gold. On the date mentioned, he reached
the top of the mountains from which he
viewed the waters beyond, and five days
later he stood upon the shore, and claimed
in the name of the king of Spain the new
found water and all land whose shores it
washed.
In 1915 at the Panama-P Pacifc Exposi-
ton huge statue of Balboa was erected
on the Exposition grounds at San Fran
cisco.
