MOTHERS-JUST As THEY ARE

1t is difficult yet easy to write some
thlng about Mothers day which will be
observed throughout the nation tomor-
row; difficult because it is such a highly
emotional subject, easy because there is
so much that can be said about mothers.
Mother Is one word that is associated
with our entire lives from the time we
are first able to lisp it until speech and
life have gone from Us forever.
1t is to be regretted that for some
reason or other we have permitted sad
ness and indeed maudlin sentimentality
to creep into the general observance of
Mothers day until they threaten to be-
come predominating in the average pro-
gram so dedicated.
Granted that if ones mother is no
more the observance of Mothers day re-
calling memories of her so vividly may
bring lump to the throat, there are so
many happy incidents connected with
the life of a mother and her child, wheth-
er the latter be small or matured, that
happiness and not sadness should be pre-
eminent.
We have permitted the average Moth
ers day program to portray mothers as
always smiling, serene, and indeed some
what sugary characters when most of us
know that they were not. Personally we
get as much happiness out OF recalling
the disciplinary action that resulted
when it was impossible for a youngster
to stand still during the hair brushing or
neck washing period as we do Of any
other maternal recollection.
We remember what happened when it
was learned that we had gone off for an
early swim, risking pneumonia in the
chill spring air, or when the vacant lot
baseball game proved more attractive
than cleaning out the cellar, or when
errands which required five minutes took
a half hour or more.
Countless incidents such as these are
memories as happy as the praise given
for good marks in school or the extra
piece of cake granted as a reward for
something or other. They place mothers
in their proper light-wonderfully hu-
man and humanity wonderful.
Mothers-just as they are-and not as
imagination seeks to paint them, is our
salute to them for Mothers day.

I think we had the real test OF
camaraderie when we went up to High

pitched into a rough-and- tumble snow
