Among all the toil and commotion of present day, it is only right and proper that we should stop for a few moments and turn our thoughts to our mother on Mother’s Day. On May 11, 1912, Mother’s Day was celebrated all over this broad land, and will hereafter be cele brated with as much regularity as Christmas. To Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia, Pa., we are in debted for this day which is set apart for the pur pose of at least thinking of our mothers. The white carnation was chosen as the memory flower because it grows everywhere and its whiteness symbolizes the purity of a mother’s love, its endurance, her fi delity. On this second Sunday of the month, falling on May 14th this year, let us make it a day sacred to our mothers. She bathed us when we were helpless; she rocked us to sleep when we were weary; she pil lowed us on pillows softer than down, and sang to us in the voice of an angel; she held our hand when we learned to walk; she nursed us when we were sick; she suffered with us in our sorrow; she laughed with us in our joy; she gave strength for our weak ness, courage for our despair, and hope to fill our hopeless heart; she was loyal when others failed ; she was our friend when other friends were gone. Let’s remember mother. and Mrs. Elbert Hutchison, Dorothy and Ellen Depew, Anne Terjeson, Mrs. George Grant, Robert Depew, By Lois Hutchison Mr. Osborn who is assistant manager at J. C.
