and wrote in his diary: "My dear
Mother, who has been dead so long,
you know not what an influence YOU
have had over me even from your
grave You know not how many times
you have saved me from despair"
Standing on the street in Manning a
few days ago l had conversation
with one of the young men going
away to the army. Seeing my op-
portunity I laid my hand on his
shoulder and said, "Old fellow, don't
forget your mothers prayers and
your mothers injunctions." A ten
derness came into his face, a tremor
IN his voice, and he said, "I can never

mother of the Gracci, pointing with
pride to her sons, said, "These are
my jewels" An officer reported to
patriotic Cretan woman that her
son had fallen in battle and added,
"But he was brave and noble fell
low" at was for that I brought him
into the world" the proud mother
replied.
The sublimest privilege ever grant
ed to a woman is that of bearing and
training sons and daughters for eff
cient service. Greater than pleading
before the multitude, greater than
shining in social circles, greater than
manipulating women's clubs is the
Divine task of giving birth to hui
man soul and the incubation of high
and holy ideals that will equip that
soul for usefulness and service in
the world.
Oh the pathos of maternal derelic-
ten! Often it is the case that dcvo-
tion to pets and the neglect Of pos
terity are commensurate. I have
known women Of so-called "high So
ciety" to leave their children to the
care of servants and take their poodle
dogs for an automobile ride. l have
never seen them pass but what have
felt like saying, "Good Lord, have
mercy on the puppies" I have Of
ten thought of the incident that oc-
Cured once when the late Sam Jones
was travelling on the train. There
was in the same car "high siciety"
woman. She turned the children over
to a servant and, going to another
part of the car, she fondlcd and kissed
her little poodle. A gentleman sit
ting by Sam Jones asked him if he
could explain such conduct. Mr.. Jones
replied, eyes; / think so. She must
be very fond of her husband and his
kinsfolk." God pity the woman who
stands before the mirror and mas
sages her face until it is red for a
social function, while her little child,
it's face redeemed by the blow Of her
own hand or that Of heartless scr
want, sobs itself to sleep, while she
whirls away on the Ball Room floor
in the arms of some other woman's
husband.
This is an appropriate time to
sound the alarm in reference to an
awful peril that threatens our modern
society. l refer to the sin of the
wilful prevention of motherhood
There are women who are averse to
being hampered by the cares of
household and the responsibilities of
motherhood and in order to be free
from these entanglements which in
terferc with the qualification of their
unholy ambitions they resort to the
willful prevention Of motherhood. I
am aware that I am on delicate
ground and in dealing with such a

THE GLORY OF MOTHERHOOD

(Sermon preached by DR.. Watson B.
Duncan at the Methodist Church on
last Sunday and published by re-
quest.)
This being "Mothers' Day" I an
nounce as my subject "The Glory of
Motherhood" Our text is found in
the 9th verse of the 10th Chapter of
the Gospel recorded by Saint John
:'Then saith he to the disciple, Be-
hold thy mother" The idea of
"Mothers' Day" originated with Miss
Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia. 1t was
suggested by the death of her mother
which occurred several years ago.
Miss Jarvis conceived the idea that
the sacredness Of the love and rev.
erance for our mothers is such that
it deserves a. larger emphasis and a
wider commemoration than it usually
received. The movement started in
1908 and was given official recognition
at later date by the Proclamation
Of President Wilson.
AS suitable emblem of the day the
white carnation was adopted. Its
whtcness stands for purity; its form
for beauty; its fragrance for love; its
wide field Of growth for Charity; and
it's lasting qualities for faithfulness.
How fitting the emblem! What is
purer than motherhood? What is
more beautiful than our mother? /?
What is more fragrant than moth
er's love? What is wider than a
mothers charity? What is more dur
able than mothers faithfulness.
What a sacred day this is! All
over the land mems minds are turned
backward to the old homes and mems
hearts are softened by the memory Of
mother There are just three things
that | wish to do today. In the
first place, I wish to emphasize the
obligations of motherhood. In the
second place, l wish to call attention
to the glory Of motherhood. In the
third place, I wish to urge the cult
vation of the wholesome memory of
our precious mothers.
What privilege it is to be a
mother! The ancient Hebrew wo.
men looked upon baroness as a sign
of Divine displeasure. This concep-
tion grew out Of the Messiaic hopes.
The whole race looked for the appear
ance Of the Messiah who should re-
deem Israel and restore the nation
to its former glory. Every Hebrew
mother, therefore, entertained the
hope that she might be so highly
honored as to be the medium through
which the Redeemer should enter the
world. Akin to this glorious hope is
the aspiration of every mother. The

I comfort YOU" How does a mother
comfort? 1 have often thought of
the difference between fathers and
a mothers comfort. Here is pre-
cious little one who stumbles and
falls and bruises his face against the
pavement. How does the father COM
fort? He lifts the child up, brushes
the dust away, and says, Don't cry;
be man." How different a mothers
comfort She rushes to the fallen
and bruised child, lifts him in her
arms, presses him to her bosom, stills
him with her hypnotic influence,
kisses the bruised place, and quiets
the sobbing voice. So when we
stumble and fall and become bruised
along this rugged pathway Of life it
is the Motherhood of God that en-
circles us with sympathetic arms and
with tender voice whispers messages
of comfort for our bleeding hearts.
We may develop reverence for our
mothers by carrying into life and by
putting into practice their injunctions.
Sometime ago had the privilege Of
looking upon that great picture,
"Breaking the Home Ties" No doubt
many of you have seen it. Never
shall I forget the impression it pro-
duced upon my heart. The scene is
of young man leaving his home for
College. There goes the father who
must needs tear himself away from
the scene. There is the servant look
ing longingly into the face Of the
young man. There is the family dog,
wistfully looking up into the face Of
the young master. Last Of all, the
mother stands with her hands resting
upon the boys shoulders and her low
ing eyes fixed upon him. No one had
to tell me what she was saying. l
knew what it was. My mind went

reproduced before me. | felt my
mothers hands resting again upon my
shoulders and heard anew her voice
t'o SIiS ot'i', WY ooH, icltlSilDSt SotI
mothers prayers ard your mothers

then another memory came in upon
me. 1t was the time of my precious
mothers last illness. l had been call
ed to her bedside and remained with
her for some time, but pressing pas
toral duties called me away. As I
went in to tell her good bye, she
seemed to have prcscntiment that
she would never see me again on
earth, so she said, "My dear boy, be-
fore you get back may be gone
home, but you know where to find me-
Be true and meet me in heaven" /

over to the little country Church and

self to her God and to my mission
and prayed anew for grace to meet
her in heaven.

get beyond these"
Some of us have mothers still liy-
ing. Let us go home throw our arms
about their necks, kiss them, and
make their last days better and
brighter.
The mothers of some of us have
passed beyond the shadows. Their
voices are still calling us home. May
we so live that they will have the
supreme joy of welcoming us home.
May their arms again encircle us
some day and may they kiss us into
restored fellowship in heaven! On
santed mothers, we are coming
home!
