MOTHERS DAY
OBSERVANCE IN
CASPER ASSURED
Churches to Take Lead in
Impressing Significance of
Day, Public Observ-
ance General.

Although mother has always been
the greatest friend and helpmeet in.
the lives OF all persons many centuries
passed before a day was set aside on
which memory OF mother. whether lfv-
ing or dead. can be held sacred.
Mothers day viii BE- observed in
Casper tomorrow with special serv.
ices in nearly all local churches. The
church. symbolic OF the best IN the
human heart. Is 4 fitting place to start
observance of the day.
The observance Of mothers day was
originated by Miss Anna Jarvis OF
Philadelphia whose mother died in
1906 On Sunday. May o 1907, h
told n friend who she had invited TO
observe with her the anniversary OF
her mothers death. that she wished &c
dedicate n day Of the year to all moth
ers. Before May 1908. came around
many other persons were interested
and organizations were formed to OBJ
serve the second Sunday in May as
Mothers day.
Philadelphia observed this day on
May 10, 1908. Since 1919 the day has
been observed in Texas. In 1918
Pennsylvania mad It a state holiday.
1t was first observed in England in
1913. There the second Sunday in
May is observed in all churches and
the previous Friday observed in all
public schools.
Since 1913 the beautiful thought of
paying tribute to mothers has spread
over he entire country and The sec
ond Sunday in May is set aside in
nearly all tho English speaking coun-
tries of the world for this observance.
In Casper, following n custom estab-
lished In former years at least a part
OF tho church services viii be dedicat-
ed TO the memory OF mother. In some
OF h churches the entire service will
be thus dedicated. The wearing of
flowers will also be general. red ones
for the living and white one for the
dead

Lusk and other towns to the east,
according to reports which are just
beginning to come from the east with
h re-establishment of partial COM
munication are said to have suffered
heavily.
The severity of the storm al Lusk
and in that vicinity is evident by the
fact that guests at a Lusk hotel were
unable to leave the institution for
meals and that rescue parties on the
outside finally reached them with food
after having fought through terrific
snow banks some OF which had drifted
to a depth of Is or more feet.
1t is claimed that the plains in that
vicinity were swept clean of snow
and the surplus was deposited in ra-
vines, cuts, draws and places OF shell
ter in the towns of that vicinity.
The heavy snow deposits are held
responsible for paraiyzing train traf-
tic on the railroads. Traffic is re
sumed on both the Burlington and
Northwestern tracks but under ex-
f-mo difficulties

ing the week and carried home about
twenty-five pounds of trout and hard
heads. He says he could have had
more IL he had struck the right
water conditions.
Ed Eshlemnn and Tom Harris had
fine streak of luck with the hard
heads. about as nice lot of fish as one
in a boat might hope to catch. Trout
were not in evidence on their day.
Jim Stone and Frank Fox were
among the lucky ones in the outside
fishing. While there were scores of
lines in the blue Chesapeake, there
they brought in sixty-four hardheads
and twenty large trout.
Harry Lauder and e. Gunder.
aheimer went to Chesapeake Beach
after having a rather rough time in
down in Charles county something in
the works of the f1ivver broke down
and 1t ruined a perfectly lovely $50
bill to get the aforesaid car back to
the District of Columbia They
hustled out to the District line and
a bad night on the pier, also, and
only a few fish fell to their way.
Harry Mitchell was lucky in getting
about twenty-five pounds of hard
heads. but he was bit surprised that
the trout were not in evidence. He
thinks that the real trout fishing is
ahead and that there will be a great
many caught as the weather gets
cooler.
Interest I'm the contest for the sill
yer loving cup increases as the sea-
son for the trout progresses'and the
time narrows to the date Of the
award. So far 1t is estimated that
any old trout that tips the scales for
eight, or even seven pounds, has q
chance. But there are many big fell
lows in the deep water up the bay
that will be coming down for the big
event by September 10, and one OF
them surely will fall into the bag of
one Of the regular WaltoniteS
