SUNDAY, MAY 14, 1916 SOCIETY NEWS 4 4 4 4 4 4444444414 ♦ ViLaR A FLOWER FOB MOTHER 4- - ♦ 4- 4 4 + 4- 4- •> ♦ 4- ♦ 4- V 4 Wear a flower for Mother, so good and so true, The best friend we ever had, no matter what the view. Life is but a family and man is but a child, And Mother the defense from poisons rank and vile. Wisdom in the sagest man is but patient Mother-Love; She is mightiest and most merciful in this life or above. Men mingle and get some good each from the other, But the greatest good we get comes from dear, sweet Mother. Then wear a flower for Mother, the source of love and power, She who plans for each of us the joys of each hour, And never grows weary in her love or care, But is always love and patience, no matter what we are. In summer’s sun or winter’s snow she's the same Mother true, Then today for her a flower wear. It is but little for you to do. —T. F. P. • « * MRS. IRA LOWE HAS.. YOUNG MATRONS CLUB.
