MONGER CITES EXAMPLE OF LOYE OF MOSES' MOTHER Praises Present Generation of Mothers in Sermon at the First M. E. Church. Lessons of motherhood were drawn from the beautiful story of Pharaoh's daughter calling Moses' mother to nurse him after finding him in the ark of bulrushes at the river side, in the Mother's Day sermon at the First Methodist church by the pastor. Rev. Albert IX Monger. He said in part: "V.'e have in this story of Moses an illustrious example of the service and patriotism of motherhood to which the whole world Is indebted. Moses r.iotner is an example of the iaw of sacrifice fs a means of saving her son's life and thereby the life of the race This incident is matched only by the greater Incident ef Mary, the mother of Jesus, who stood by thi crors and saw her son die that the world might have life. It is significant that only thoj3 ;uces and peples guided by this '.aw of motherhood have come to highest, ac hi-.'venie nt. It Is the very foundation cf all progress. Soks Rest for Child. This love of motheihood is always anxious that her sons and daughters shall be free from dangers and evils that would destroy them. Kvery mother seeks the best for her children, however ehort he may come from being the best mother. It is in this mother love that we have the best revelation of the omnipresence of God. In her anticipation of meeting every need of childhood she is but expressing what is GckI's attitude towards all mankind. Mother love Is the nearest to the power of omnipotence that man knows anything about in this life. There is no enemy threatening the life of her children but what In the end she wdll overcome. The world has never had such a generation of mothers as it has today. This is no diparagement to the mothers of the past who made possible what we enjoy. The largest service fer motherhood to render 13 before us. The past is to bo continued. Future needs must be met.

Woman has no more right to use her leisure time in a round of social vanities and entertainment than a man has to use time, which should be given to toil, for loafing. Today we are facing a larger service for motherhood than that of merely caring for children during childhood. Most pictures of mothers are set within the four walls of the home. Motherhoexl begins there, but fhe should not be denied service after the child has gone from !the home.
