THIS IS MY 57th BIRTHDAY. Charles J. Doherty. Hon. Charles J. Doherty, minister of justice in the Dominion cabinet, was born in Montreal, May 11, 1855. He was graduated from McGill Uni- vesity in 1876 and admitted to the bar the following year. He was ap- pointed professor of civil law at Me- Gill in 1890 and later the chair, of international law was added to his duties. 1891 he was appointed to the superior court of the Province of Que- bec. After his retirement from the bench in 1906 he interested himself in financial affairs. He first entered the House of Commons in 1908. Congratulations to: Charles W. Fairbanks, former vice- president of the United States, sixty years old today. Robert J. Aley, president of the University of Maine, forty-nine years old today. Rt. Rev. Joseph Chartrand, R. C. Coadjutor bishop of Indianapolis, forty-two years old today. Mother’s Day. “Backward, turn backward, O Time, in thy flight, Make me a child again, just for a night! Mother, come back from the echoless shore, Take me again to your heart as of yore; . Kiss .from my forehead the furrows of care, Smooth the few silver threads out of my hair; Over my slumbers your loving watch keep, Rock me to sleep, mother, rock me to sleep.” Wear a Flower. “White flower for Mother dead Bright flower for Mother living.” It was five years ago that Miss An- na Jarvis, of Philadelphia, con- ceived the idea of selecting one day of the year upon which the devotion to mothers’ memory should be ob- served, and the second Sunday in May being the day upon which fell the anniversary of her mother’s death, that day was chosen by her as Mothers’ day. Miss Jarvis wrote to churches, so- cieties, public officials, noted people and the press and all joined in the movement which she had originated. It has spread so rapidly that this year a majority of the governors of states have issued proclamations set- ting aside tomorrow as Mothers’ day and suggesting that it be made one of the state’s memorial days. The original plan was that each one wishing to honor his mother would wear a white carnation, but the demand proving greater than the supply, it was decided to wear a white carnation for the dead and a bright flower for the living. So wear a flower tomorrow, white or bright, “in honor of the best mother in the| world, your mother.” The Nymore Road. At the railroad and warehouse com- misslon hearing yesterday at Nymore, one fact stood out with: startling dis- tinctness. ’Every witness examined for Nymore testified that because of the road between Nymore and Be- midji, loads coming to Bemidji from 00|long ago as it is one of the main the country south and east of Ny- more had to be cut in two at Nymore and two trips made to cover the last mile. It is because of this condition, more than any other, that the people of Nymore are asking the commission to order a depot or depots built by the railroads. A depot at Nymore will be a body blow to Bemidji, as it will cut off a tonnage revenue of about $10,000 a year, but if the com- mission orders one, Bemidji has only itself to blame. The road should have been put in first class shape traffic arteries to this city. Fortunately for Bemidji, the com- mission was taken to Nymore over the railroad tracks. If it had been driven over the road itself, it might have given a decision on the spot. At any rate, whether or not the depot is ordered, the road should be put in first-class shape at once. The Commercial club committee on highways was instructed last Tues- day night to prepare figures on the cost of paving the Nymore road. These, with figures on the cost of making a sand or macadam road, are to be presented to the city council at its next meeting. For several years past $150 to $200 per year has been spent on this road and it is nof much better today than when Chief Bemid- ji lived on the lake shore. Not only tie people at Nymore are asking for this depot, but the farmers living out in that country who have to use this road want better shipping facilities. A paved street from Be- midji to Nymore would remedy the condition and remove a good cause for complaint.
