The example of the Master of men

Is the approximation of the highest filial
love and reverence Little as is known
of the years of His childhood in
Nazareth, or of His youth, now and
again there are instances in the Gospel
narrative where He pays high tribute
to His mother. We read concerning His
youth that He went down to Nazareth
and was subject to the disciplines of
His home, and on repeated occasions
where His mother joined Him in some
memorable act, He disclosed the affec-
ton He bore her. In no instance is this
more marked than at His crucifixion.
AS she stood by the cross He gave her
loving recognition, and in one of His
latest utterances commended her to the
care of the beloved disciple, John His
repeated tender references to children.
make evident the depth Of His love for
those of tender years.
We do well to set apart Sunday to
give larger recognition to the chief
character-making power of the Nation.

by commercializing it, of cheapening its
real value and distinction This year in
particular, We do we'll to exalt mother
hood to Its high place and distinction.
The men upon whom the Nation depends
to secure it will be the men who bring
to their hard service something more

who out of disciplined and well-ordered
lives, enriched by wholesome homes. are
able to give to the cause they serve
strong characters. exemplars of all that
is best in domestic life
Evening star., 1942-05-10

Mothers Sunday takes on a new
significance this year by reason of the
fact that America is taxing the home
and its most intimate concerns as never
before. In calling her sons to the service
of the Army and Navy, she is laying
upon the homes of our land heavy
and necessary burden
Physical fitness is indispensable in
such a situation, but moral fitness is
more so. The Government is addressing
itself to moral fitness more than at any
time, and is being ably supported by the
United Service Organizations This whole
situation compels consideration of what
constitutes the source of morale and
character building, and it inevitably
leads to the women and mothers of the
Nation. In such critical times as these
all our boasted strength, wealth and
productive power, important as they are,
take a lesser place than that which
comes directly from strong, wholesome,
well-directed homes. 1t is the testimony
of all high-minded men that, what they
have of moral worth, of strength of
character. has come to them largely If
not wholly from their mothers. On re-
peated occasions the strongest leaders
the Nation has produced have gladly
recognized the influence their mothers
exercised in giving shape and form to
their characters.
In this time of new appraisals we turn
once again to the true sources of our
greatness and power and we discover in
them the assurance We have of main
tanning our integrity and our place of
distinction as a sovereign Nation. Some
years ago had occasion to prepare
memorial for man who had occupied
conspicuous place as one of the leading
financiers of the country He was man
who had reached advanced age whose
life had been crowned with success and
honors. On inquiring what he regarded
as the real secret of his remarkable
career, he said: MY home and notably,
my mother" He had been born in a
home marked by poverty and his early
days had known much of frugality. On
pressing him to tell me something of his
mothers character he described 1t in few
words, saying: Her life was distinguished
by simplicity humility of circumstance,
