TRIBUTE TO MOTHERS

uHld, bbIud, JUNE O. eSleIudy
was observed here as Mothers day
on which occasion the following able
address was delivered by Ex-Governor
Albert w. Gilchrist, at the Metho-
dist Episcopal church:
Rev Sistrunk, Ladies and Gentle
men: Mothers Day is usually OBJ
served throughout the United States
on the second Sunday in May Of each
year, II may. of course, be observed
on any day in all the year. This OBJ
servance is due to young lady of
Philadelphia. She lost her best
friend, her dearly beloved mother.
She wrote to the various governors
asking them to issue a proclamation
proclaiming the second Sunday in
May as Mothers Day, suggesting
that each one, on that day wear a
white flower of some kind-sweet-
ness of the flower and purity of
white. During my first year as gov
ernor she wrote 10 me. At that time
very few governors hao issued such
a Dr5alamation A governor Iatur-
ally hesltates In being am,ng the
first to do something entirely new in
his STAGE, Being IN hcar'y accord
with her wishes, ! complied with her
request promptly. The various min
listers of the gospel were requested
to hold a special service on the sec
ond Sunday in May, in commemOra-
tion of their best and truest friend,
their mother. Everyone was request
ed to pay some especial attention to
their mother if she be alive, and if
she be dead to show some mark of
of her dear memory
Some complied and some did not.
an happy to say that Mothers Day
IS now being observed throughout
very State of our broad and glorious
It is observed throughout
Iarious portions Of Europe. II will |
oon be observed throughout the civ
liZed world. The more it is OBJ |
erved, the better it speaks for the
efinement and for the best elements
within US all. As previously men
ioned, Mothers Day ought to be
very day in all the year.
In many passages the Holy Bible
caches you to Honor thy father
nd thy mother that thy days may
e long in the land which the Lord
by God 2iyeth thee" This is di-
ect promise for honoring thy fa-
her and thy mother. It is the only
irect promise of all mentioned In

references assure You Of even
death for speaking evil of them.
Every person who has known

the fact that he can never repay her
for the time, sleeplcss hours, train

ters not what trouble one gets into
he is sure to know that the heart Of
his mother beats in sympathy fors
him. A poet states, "The hand that
rocks the cradle is the hand that

you '"The bearing and training of a
child is woman's wisdom. A moth
er has all to do with the training of
a child, as the father is necessarily
absent most of the time from home.
If every mother We're to impress on
her child in early life the dangers of
certain intemperances or of certain
eXcesses, or of the violation of GER
tain laws, or of tasting the forbid
den fruit" there would be but few
such violations in this world. 1t is
the mother who can instil high
thoughts in the hearts and minds of
her children, Even my aspiration to
become governor of this great State
is due to my mother telling me time

was a proper consideration for other

lighest analysis means about as
much as Doing unto others as you

1t might be construed to
mean, Love thy neighbor as thy

In conclusion, the only direct
romise in the ten commandments is
ontained In "Honor thy father and

ocks the cradle is the hand which
