A state wide observance of Mother’s
Day, which comes May 11 this year,
and of Mother and Daughter Week,
May 11 to 18, is being promoted by the
Georgia Sunday School Association
from its Atlanta office.
About 15 years ago the celebration
of the second Sunday in May was ob
served as Mother’s Day in a number
of cities, towns, and villages of Ameri
ca, the movement having been found
ed by Mrs. Anna Jarvis of Philadel
phia. In 1914 by act of Congress this
Sunday was officially dedicated as
'‘National Mother’s Day”. The Moth
er’s Day emblem is the white carna
tion.
In its promotion of the observance
of Mother’s Day and Mother and
Daughter Week the Georgia Sunday
School Association has prepared a
program for the Sunday School and
the Church, which can be obtained
upon application, and also a list of
suggestions for Mother and Daughter
Banquets, Luncheons, and Teas. A
number of these programs have been
mailed over the State by Mr. R. D.
Webb, General Superintendent, and
Mr. Webb feels that there will be a
wider observance of the day and week
this year than ever before in Georgia.
According to Mr. Webb, the purpose
of Mother and Daughter Week is four
fold:
To give the Mother a better under
standing and appreciation of her
Daughter.
To give the Daughter a better un
derstanding and appreciation of her
Mother.
To help both Mothers and Daughters
to find in the Church and Church
School a channel for the expression of
their finest selves, thus securing in
the work and support of the Church
their co-operation.
To bring to a focal point the com
munity-wide interest in Mother and
Daughter relationships.
