The law of God commands us, “Honor thy Father and thy Mother.” Long life is the reward promised for keeping this first Commandment. Every good mother wants her child to grow sturdy in body, sane, in intel lect and reverent in spirit. Men and women of the world around are con scious of the great ideals “Mother” has for them and are now beginning to realize her sacrifices and are rec ognizing them by setting apart a “MOTHERS’ DAY,” in which to pay homage to her. In 1914 Congress authorized and requested the president to issue a Proclamation for the observance of “Mothers’ Day” on the second Sab bath in May as a public expression of our love and reverence for the Moth ers of our country. This custom has spread to other lands until it encircles the globe. What a beautiful tribute to Mother but to her it is justly bestowed. Mother, the purest sweetest name known. The child when wounded, •bruispd and lonely feels that the world is cruel, has a refuge 1 at the feet of Mother. The three sweetest words in the English language is “Mother, Home and Heaven.” The name of Mother is only spok en in the lands where Christ is know Think of the millions of children in other lands who have never learned to lisp the name of Mother; never knelt beside Mother’s knee and taught the little prayer “Now I lay me down to sleep.” Oh! men and women, boys and girls, you whose Mothers are with you to day, strive to make their pathway through life happy and bright. The bravest battle that ever was fought, Khali I tel! you where and when? On the tnup of the world you will find it not — It was fought by the mothers of men Not with a cannon or battle shot With sword or mightier pen; * Not with a wonderful word or Thought From the lips of eloquent men. But deep in some patient woman's heart A woman who could not yield, But silently, cheerfully bore her part, Aye, there is the battlefield. / .... No marshalling troop, no bivouac song, No banners to flaunt and wave, But oh, their battles, they last so long— From the cradle e’en to the grave. # Oh woman, while in a world of shame, With splendid and silent scorn. Go back to God as white as you came The noblest warrior born. Barrow County will honor the Moth ers of the Nation on “Mothers’ Day” SUNDAY, MAY BTH. 6000 are expected to be present in all the Sunday schools of the county. Ev erybody go. Those whose mothers are dead will wear a white rose; if living will wear pink or red rose. J. T. Strange Go. Department Store. SUBSCRIPTION: SI.BO A YEAR
