Mother Remembered Great Men Of History

This morning, Alex, younger lad of the house the lane Was our guest. A little chap,

~ he amused him with the play- things we provided and also found much of interest in explor- ing in the low cupboards of pantry and kitchen as such fel- lows of (almost) two will.

He played and chattered and smiled, quite happy in his inter- ests until at length, doubtless at a single thought, these pastimes failed to charm and he betook himself quietly to a small rock- ingchair to rock and hum what we could recognize as a lonely little tune, There was definite Jonging in the sober blue eyes, one which soon found expression op young lips. ;

asked wistfully.

"And it came to mind that no matter the age, this is a name precious to all, one which re- mains forever tenderly enshrin- ed in folks’ hearts. Someone e- minds us that this is one touch of nature common to mankind “the wide world over.” A man may have neither sister nor sweetheart or wife but he has a mother in person, or in mem- ory, to respect and to love.

There are we remember moth- ers in varying fashions and de- grees of mothering, but as yet we have not seen that one who has failed to keep always the wel- fare of her children at heart. In- deed how many we have known

who were martyrs to their es- |

tate, deeming no labour on their behalf too demanding, no person al sacrifice too great.

At Alderlea, looking back, seems now that our mothering was mostly nominal, since the years themselves took the sons and grew them up tothe farm- ing. But if at any time our role was at all burdensome, in plea- sant memories retained, we have been already overpaid.

When we see young mothers of, it may be several, wishing away the tender years of their small _ones-looking ahead to the days when they will be grown, we in- variably . pity them. They do not realize how very good are their *days now at hand. Indeed they

Because you cannot share with me

The picture of your smiling face

I carry in my heart,

And hear again your gentle voice

we are world’s apart.

But © your memory seems bless

As long years wander by, And thoughts of you are brighter far

Than rainbows in the sky.

You are a part of everything— Of every poem I write,

You are the golden sunlight, and The beauty of the night.

You are the splendor of the dawn The silver of a star, ; And surely all the angels: know How wonderful you are.

|And though you left me quietly, As sinks beneath the hill

The glory of the setting sun Clear, beautiful and still.

My memories of you are as dear

As in the long ago,,

In England, the practice of “going - a - mothering” devel- oped during the early seventeen- th century. Boys and girls, work- ing away from home, were al- lowed_to spend “Motherigg Sun- day” with their families.

Since most of the youngsters had to walk many miles to get home, many churches provided food for the young travelers. The children often took violets and cakes and gifts for their mothers. - ;

jThe idea caught on, rapidly from city to city. six years later, President’ Wilson signed a Congressional resolution setting aside the second Sun- day of every May as the offi- cial Mother’s Day.

It wasn’t long before the prac- tice was taken up in Canada. In 1920, one Toronto newspaper was able to headline a “‘Wide obser- vance of Mother’s Day.” custom has spread to the extent that Mother’s Day now is celex brated in every community in the country.
