one, when nobody can find adequate
words to write about Mothers Day?
Mothers Day is something new in
the way of holidays-not like Christ
mas and Easter which are old, old
holidays. And it's new, compared with
the Fourth of July. In fact, it's just
about the newest holiday we have.
1t was no longer ago than 1906 that
Miss Anne Jarvis of Philadelphia, hon
oring the memory of her own mother
on the anniversary of her death, con-
ceived of a day of which everyone
should do reverence to his mother.
whether living or dead. The Worlds
Sunday School association adopted the
plan, and, in the next few years, an
nually designated one Sunday as
Mothers Day. The purposes of this
celebration, as stated by DR.. George
w. Bailey, then president of the asso-
citation, were:
'To recall the memories of the
mothers that are gone, and through
loving words and loving care to
brighten the lives of the mothers that
remain, and to help children, men and
women to a greater blessing in honor
ing their fathers and their mothers.
ITO recall mothers prayers, moth
ers dying words, and the promises
made to mother by the big boy that
still mourns her, and to stop and think
little of what she was In her life TO
her family"
In 1903 Miss Jarvis founded an or
ganization now known as Mothers Day
International association.
The idea was taken up by the states.
In 1910 the governor of Washington
issued a proclamation designating
May 8 of that year as Mothers Day"
and urged it be celebrated by special
services and the wearing of a white
flower in honor of all mothers. In 1912
the governor of Oklahoma issued a
similar proclamation.
National recognition was given
Mothers Day by resolution of the
Sixty-third congress, approved by the
President of the United States on May
8, 1914. designating that the second

But, since human nature is human
nature. every day isn't observed as
Mothers Day. There is all the more
reason. therefore, for observing the
second Sunday in May-May II, this
year-with real celebration. Some
one has tried to figure out real cele-
bratlon after this fashion for sons:
Wear flower in mothers honor
a white one if mother is dead col
ored flower for a living mother
Send mother box of spring flowers
Write her letter-a long one.
Give mother whole day of your
time for that good visit" she longs
for.
Send mother your picture, and snap
shots of your home, your children,
your work
Tell mother your plans and ambi-
tions-she made them possible.
Tell mother your smaller troubles
she wants to help you.
Thank mother for her care and her
teachings-tell her how they have
helped you.
Don't forget that mother still likes
candy
Mother was your first and truest
sweetheart-don't forget to say 81
love you,''
For the daughters these things are
suggested:
It's your chance to say thank you"
to your best friend-your mother.
BE sure to celebrate by wearing a
flower for mother: White for mothers
not living; colored flowers for mother
still with you.
Send mother some gay spring flow
ers, brilliant bouquet or a thrifty
plant.
Make dainty cap or "dress-up''
gown or shirtwaist as a love gift to
mother.
If mother is far away, send her a
special delivery letter" for her Sum-
day treat.
Send mother the book you just en-
joyed reading.
Don't forget to send her pictures of
yourself, your friends and your good
times.
