Mothers Day,

each grade to teach appreciation and
love of mother.
Songs, poems, and best Of all, a
heart-to-heart talk by the teacher led
the little ones to stop and consider
the great blessing, so often accepted
heedlessly, and to think of the proper
attitude of the child to the mother.

Louisiana, Texas, Arizona and so to

fresh verdure of a lovely day in the
pretty open, was so small. The at
