Flowers, Gifts And
Rich Tradition
Spell Mothers Day

The tradition why flowers are
so identified with Mothers Day is
owed, in part, to Miss Anna M.
Jarvis of Philadelphia, Pennsyl-
vanai. Through her efforts, Moth
er's Day was first observed in
trdaition filled Philadelphia in
May, 1907. Miss Jarvis arranged
a special mothers service in a
church, requesting that those at
tending wear a white carnation.
AS the custom spread through
out the States (Mother's Day was
officially proclaimed a national
holiday in 1914, celebrants have
continued to wear and give flowers
in the form of corsages, bouton-
nieres and arrangements.
But that's not the whole story.
Few of the so million families who
will mark May 18th as Mothers
Day know that a similar custom
existed in England, centuries ago.
Researchers at the Minnesota AL
lied Florists Association point out
that "Mothering Sunday, the
fourth Sunday in Lent, began as
a festival honoring Mother
Church.
It wasn't long before people
seized the same occasion to honor
their mothers with a gift Of flow
ers and a rich cake specially baked
for the occasion. 1t was also GUS
tomary for many churches to hold
services for children on this day;
these observances were marked
with the bringing Of volets to the
altar for blessing.
Some historians contend that the
germ of the Mothers Day idea was
sown thousands Of years ago, when
peoples of the Near East and Med
iterranean regions worshipped an
Earth Mother by decorating them
selves with flower garlands at
woodland festivals. The more up
to-date version of Mothers Day
Is celebrated In most of the Eng
Iish speaking world plus such far
flung places as Africa, China,
japan, Mexico and most Of South
America.
Flowers, gifts and rich trad-
ton. Put them all together and
they spell Mothers Day, a holiday
as welcome as flowers in spring.
