"Mother's Day" in France
Someplace in France,
"Mothers' Day" May 12, 1918,
My Dearest Mother: This is a
day deileioated to you, this is my
Mother's letter from her boy in the
service of his Country. How nice
and pleasant and sacred are my
thoughts of you this day and every
day, no matter where I am or what
I am doing you, dear mother can't
forget me. Mother dear, it is you
upon whom the burdens, sorrows
and cares of war fall, but rest as
sured that the cause of it all is
what our Nation believes sacred
and upright. That the terrible
sword of the Hun shall not cast its
power upon the helpless of our bles
sed Country as it has upon those
: who were weak and helpless here.
Don't worry about me, mother,
your teachings, your training, your
eare and love and your reverence of
those things which come to us all
from God has letf an impression up
on my life that influences or time
can not erase. And rest assured
that at all times, amidst all dan
gers and circumstances I shall be a
man, with the help of God.
At evening when the shades of
dusk begin to enveil the beauty of
the day I long to lie alone on my
crude bed and ponder o'er the past,
thinking of you all. How in the
days of childhood and when I became
a man I came to you for counsel.
And the great day when I made the
decision that my Country needed
me and you clasped me in your ten
der arms and with tears flowing
dcwn your cheeks in streams I
kissed you farewell. How could
one forget such a moment and all its
meanings. And again to think of
some of the little sorrows and griefs
which we bore together and the joys
and gladness of home. Tears not
of sorrow or grief but of love and
joy fills my soul today because I am
thinking of you above all things.
I am in the best of health at pres
ent and trust you are all the same.
"Oh spacious days of glory and
of grieving!
Oh sounding hours of lustre and
of loss!
Let us be glad we lived, still be
lieving That God who gave the cannon
gave the cross.
Let us be sure among these seeth
ing passions,
The lusts of blood and hate our
souls abhor;
The Power that Order out of
Chaos fashions
Smites fiercest in the wrath red
forge of war
Have faith! Fight on! Amid the
battle-hell
Love triumphs, Freedom beckons,
all is well."-Robert W. Service
Write me often as you can is the
message of a loving son to his moth
er on Mothers Day.
