 Whereas, the American home is the greatess source of the country's strength and security and the foun- head of Americanism and good citizenship; and
 Whereas, the brightest and most promising omen for Alaska is found in the fact that it has become a country of homes: and
 Whereas, Nation, State and Ter ritcry should ever be mindful of the service to humanity and country of the American mother; therefore, be it
 Resolved, that it is the sense of the Alaska Terri ritorial Legislature, the sixth biennial session assembled that the Second Sunday in May known as Mothers Day, should an- nually be observed in Alaska by the display of the American Flag on all Terht torBal and school buildings and such fitting celebrations as will strengthen home ties, promote a closer union between the Territory and its homes and their sons and daughters, and thus give reverent recognition and expression to the service of the American mother in all affairs of life."

Bruce. "The day has grown very popular throughout the coun- try and every year more of the churches are placing the event on their annual calendar.
