One of my correspondents has asked
me to tell something of the origin and
meaning of Mothers Day
Mothers Day was inaugurated by
the churches of Minneapolis during the
Chapman evangelist cam
paign there.
1t was suggested by DIR. Henry A.
Ostrom whose own mother had died
about a year before this time. and who
felt that the young people might be
especially touched and the old people
honored and pleased by the observance
OF such day.
Mothers Day. was celebrated first
on April 2 and is supposed to be
celebrated every year on the Sunday
nearest to that day. That would bring
It Sunday. April 10. this year. What
effect the fact that Easter comes on
that day will have. 1 do not know.
The idea of the evangeiists was to
have a day especially devoted to moth
ers just as "Children's Day is devoted
to the children On this day in the
churches which celebrate 1t q sermon
Is preached especially for mothers and
great efforts are made by special in
vitation and the use of carriages and
automobiles to bring out the older
women who would not otherwise get
there.
The flower dedicated to this day is

pinks are sent to the sick and shut-ir
