The “Mother’s Day” concept has a long history of religious con nections which in modern times seem > to have been predominantly Christian. In ancient Greece, the idea i of paying tribute to motherhood was given expression with a regut lar festival tantamount to mother ' worship. Formal ceremonies to • Cybele, or Rhea, the “Great Mother of the Gods,” were performed . on the Ides of March throughout • Asia Minor. For Christianity, the concept seems to date back to . establishment of England’s Mo- . thering Sunday,” a custom of the . people which provided that one > attend the mother church in which he was baptized on Mid-Lent Sunday. Gifts were to be ofered at the titer to the church and to worchippers’ mothers. The concept was divorced of any “mother worship,” but nevertheless perpetuated its religious assosiation. U. , S. observance of Mother’s Day, . too, has been characterized by , church ties from the start. 1716 ’ first general observance of the j occasion was in the churches of ’ Philadelphia after Miss Anne Jarvis campaigned for a holiday for mothers more than 50 years ago.

SATURDAY, MAY 13.

The qualties of motnernooa are portrayed with peculiar charm in the Bible and mod of the mothers mentioned were women of noble character. They exemplify the qualities and virtures which every age recognizes and praises as the most precious treansures of the race and the most potent influences by which humanity moves forward. The success and happiness of children are the greatest solicitudes of motherhood. Christianity did much to dignify the status of women and children and emphasized the sanctity of the home. The Christian faith which thousands profess and by which they live was fashioned largely by mothers. A mother’s love is a piture of God’s love for us.
