NEXT SUNDAY WILL
Be MOTHERS DAY
Each True Son and Daughter
Should Observe 1t.
Almost Everybody but Mother has
Had Day for Many, Many
Years.

Mothers all over the world are to
have one udy each year ior IneT
very own, a day on winch the love
ana honor cherished in every heart
Tor GOO greatest institution, moth
erhood, shall blossom lortn Officially
and tangibly in the wearing OF a
white blossom, cmblematic of the
purest love known to humanity.
To( a Philadelphia woman, Miss
Anna Jarvis, belangs the first con-
ceptioh of the Mother day idea. The
thought came to Miss Jarvis as she
was placing a spray OF white bos-
SONS on the grave OF her own mother,
and when voiced, SO sympathetic a
chord did 1t strike in the hearts OF
thinkers everywhere, that an inn
mediate effort to establish a day for
the wearing of the token was made
by educational 1.nd moral culture
organizations all over the world.
To the second Sunday in May has
fallen the notable honor of bearing
maternal significance. In many
towns and cities mayors issue procla-
nations regarding its observance, and
ministers note it's coming from their
pulpits. The legislature of South
Dakota has made IL state holiday.
There is a day set apart for The
"Father of His Country" day for
the celebration of national liberty, a
Mckinley day, a Lincoln's day and
lots of other days of special import.
Now real heart interest is to have
its turn. and each motherlover is to
pay tribute to the best mother on
earth-his own. here will be thou
sands In every corner of the globe
wearing the white blossom next Sun
day.
