Value of the Farm The second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day. This year it falls on May 14th. This beautiful thought of setting aside one day in the year to be particularly de voted to one’s mother was first suggested by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia, who founded the Mother's Day International As sociation to provide the necessary organized support for the foster ing of the movement. Thanks largely to her efforts, Mother’s Day has become a recognized in stitution as the day on which each of us should pause to acknowledge our debt of affection and gratitude to “the best mother who ever lived,” on which we should be with her if we can, and, if we unfortunately cannot, should make a point of sending her a message of affec tion and cheer. in co-operation with the effort to foster the observance of Mother’s Day, the Western Union Telegraph Comprny has provided special telegraph blanks, ap propriately decorated with an artistic design[of carnations and bearing the legend “Mother’s Day,” on which all message of those who wish toj send a word of greeting to their mothers on this occasion, by day letter or night letter or in a short tele gram, will be delivered. The emblem of the day is the white carnation, and it is the hope of the Mother’s Day As sociation that it will be worn by everyone as a tribute of respect not only for his mother, but also for all the gentle and noble motherhood of the land.

All former record holders were much larger and higher priced cars. Another Remarkable Demonstratio i of Buick Speed, Power, Endurance and Reliability The cxtriiordinary time made by the Buick Six up the long hard grades, over rough mountain passe.s, fording streams and racing over miles of desolute des ert in its intercity dusli was no surprise to us. We knew that the Buick valve in head motor was capable of driving the car at a continued speed of more than sixty miles per hour when calledupon. We also knew that the Buick chassis, notwithstanding the continued heavy hammering over rough roads at unusual speed, would be in the same perfect condition at the finish as at the start. By this remarkable performance we have demonstrated to the public the superiority of Buick construction.
