MOTHERS DAY

She has probably grown old. Her
eyes are little dim, her hair is gray,
and her living is being lived in memo
ries of the past At times she is
lonesome with all her family scatter
ed to the four corners of the world
And letter or remembrance on
Mothers Day will do more than you
can imagine to cheer her old SOUL
Think what she has sacrificed for
you. She gave you life at the risk of
her own. She shaved, struggled, and
worked constantly for your welfare
during your childhood years. She it
is who moulded your character, to
which you owe any success you have
achieved. She it is who taught you
during those young, impressionable
years. She it is who always offered
encouragement in the face of dis
couragement, who believed in you
when all the rest of the world may
have doubted your ability or integri-
ty.
And now she is probably alone
most of the time, wondering how you
are getting along, pleased more than
you are yourself with every success
or piece of good fortune that comes
yOuI way, uQIl HiOTS lHdH NOu call NC
with every failure or misfortune you
suffer.
A better friend you can never have
in this life So above all remember
Mothers Day, next Sunday-May 10.
1t will make her happy and it will
make you feel better toward yourself.
