MOTHERS DAY

Sunday next, May 18th, is Moth
er's Day.
In May 1914, resolution was
passed by Congress and endorsed by
President Wilson, designating Moth
er's Day as a National institution.
The second Sunday in May is set
aside for it's observance.
Since its inception the celebration
has spread beyond the expectations
Of its founder, Miss Anna Jarvis, of
Virginia. At first the observance
consisted of merely wearing flowers,
white carnations for the Mothers
who have passed on: red carnations
for those we still have with us.
And what flower could have been
selected that was more appropriate.
Its wilderness is a symbol Of purity,
its form and fragrance represent
beauty and love, and its wide field OF
growth and lasting qualities symbo-
lie charity and faithfulness-al a
true mothers virtues.
The. white carnation remains the
recognized symbol of Mothers Day,
though usage has introduced the
wearing OF the red carnation in trib-
ute to living mothers.
Other flowers are worn when car
nations are not available.
And, too, the observance has
broadened in its scope, and is not
confined alone, to the pretty custom
OF wearing flowers. but now embra-
ces the confering of gifts upon Moth
err, the home coming OF sons and
daughters to be with Mother on the
day, special church worship and sim
ular appropriate observance.

KELLOGG'S PROPOSAL TO RE-
NOUNCE WAR

From the broad standpoint of hui
manity and civilization, all war is an
assault upon the stability OF. human
society and should be suppressed in
the common interest. The govern
ment of the United States desires to
see the institution of war abolished,
and stands ready to conlude with the
French, British, Italian, German and
Japanese Governments single
multi-lateral treaty open to subse-
quent adherence by any and all othe
Governments, binding the parties
thereto not to resort to war with one
another"
This is Secretary Of State KEEL
logg's proposal that France and the
United States take the lead IN out
iawing war among the great nations
In making the suggestion, Mr..
Kellogg is on firm ground OF Ameri-
can precedent. President Roose-
welt sent an American representa-
tive. Henry White, to the Algeciras
Conference in 1905, not because the
United States was interested in the
questions at issue in Morocco be-
tween France and Germany, but be-
cause the maintenance of the general
peace was in President Roosevelt's
judgment, the paramount interest
Of the United States.
Mr.. Kellogg's suggestion was re-
ceived at first with good deal OF
suspicion. What was meant? AS
Stunning that only alternative for war
was arbitration, European editors
and statesman thought that such a
proposal for the six great nations to
renounce all war implied an agree
ment to arbitrate all disputes, no
matter what they were about.
Knowing that the Senate of the Unit
ed States refuses to agree in advance
to general arbitration treaties, Eu-
rope wondered whether Mr.. kellogg
was not planning trick. They
waited watchfully.
AS matter of fact, arbitration,
which is court process, is not the
only means of settling disputes. In
quiry and Cancellation by impartial
commissions have been successfully
used. The United States has nego
tiated many treaties providing for
commissions Of inquiry and concilia-
ton, and these treaties are still in
force. International conferences, in
which the nations concerned meet
forI IA frank exchange OF views and a
search for a mutually satisfactory
solution OF the difficulty, are being
USED more and more.
AS informal discussion of Mr. KEEL
logs proposal goes forward. evi-
depce appears of an increasing will
inaness to accept it. Such an agree
ment not to go to war would very
much strengthen the prospects for

PRoPORTIONATE VALUE

In the May number of Cecil Lee
gion-Air, complaint is, made by the
Cecil Post of poor support received
in Rising Sun and North East on the
occasion of the recent presentation
of the World War film, under the au-
spices of the Bugle Corps.
We do not know about North
East, but the Post was unfortunate
in showing the film in Rising Sun a
few days after a series Of World War
pictures were given here. Several
Of the. pictures we're identical.
This, no doubt, explains why the
attendance here was poor. Certain
ly it was not because of any feeling
against Cecil Post, as the great work
the Post is doing with its ambulance
has won universal praise from our
citizens.

the past several years, has completed
the distribution of 1917 cotton-tail
rabbits, and 6501 bobwhite quail in
the covers of this State during Feb
ruary and March,. for propa cation
purposes, therefore, it becomes very
essential that the public owning dogs
should comply with the law as quot
ed herein. and assist US in protecting
these animals and game birds. so we
may receive 100 per cent propaga-

success of conferences, attempts a

success of conferences. attempts at
Cancellation, and arbitration. The
threat of force, and the resulting
fear and distrust, would be pretty
well removed, and negotiations be-
tween nations would consider the
merits of the case rather than the
weights of the clubs of the disput-
ants.
Should such a treaty be negotiat-
ed, the way would be open for inn
mediate steps toward disarmament.
Armies and navies, as delegate to
the Disarmament Commission at
Geneva said the other day, can only
be used to make war. There is no
possible excuse for maintaining them
when the principal nations are
bound not to go to war.
The fate of Mr.. Kellogg's proposal
is for the future to determine. 1t
certainly offers interesting prospects
for progress toward better interna-
tional relations.

SAVE THE lockwood AND THE
RED-BUD

The dogwood and red-bud bios
SONS are coming out to make the
roadsides attractive, and at the same
time arouse the selfish desire in mo-
florists to park their cars and despoil
the woodlands of their beauty.
There is a strange complex, says
State Forester Besley, in the makeup
of some people, who while they
would not think of plucking flowers
from neighbours garden unlimited,
feel that anything growing in a wild
state of nature along the roadside is
free to anyone who wants it. In
this matter particularly, there is in
so many people, disregard for the
rights of others. The blossoms on
the dogwood and red-bud trees, COM
ing out before the foliage and max
ing the roadsides and woodlands so
attractive at this season Of the year,
once pulled from the trees last but a
few moments before they wither and
are cast aside, while the person who
has committed the depreciation has
not only violated private property
rights but has deprived the other
hundreds, and possibly thousands,
who motor along the highway, OF en-
joying them. The wild azaleas,
mountain laurel, and other wood
land blossoms that appear later are
liable to the same fate.
Public sentiment is developing
rapidly for protecting the beauty OF
our roadsides, and for those who
cannot be reached in any other way,
Maryland has very important law
on the subject, which makes it a
misdemeanor punishable by fine
or Imprisonment for despOiling
property along roadsides OF their
beauty, either OF blossoms or other
attractive features. The enforce
ment of this law by all who are in
terested in protecting their flowers,
trees, and shrubs, will hasten the
day when the Maryland landscape,
as viewed from the roadway, will be
safe for the enjoyment of all.
