MOTHER’S DAY, MAY 12th
Coming as it does in our P’ace month, Mother’s Day has an added significance. Peace is the intense desire of every mother the world over. In wartime mothers endure in silence every agony that may come, as well as those that actually do come. Their sufferings can never he expre sed in words. The longing to be able only to take the load on their own shoulders, to hear the privations, the sufferings of their sons, is in itself a martyrdom. And when we pray and work for I’eace, we think almost unconsciously of the mothers of the world. All honour to them. And all love and understanding of all for them. For those who wish to make some special feature for the day, we remind readers of the very nice service sent in by Mrs. Kasper for the occasion last year. It appeared in the May “Y.P. Supplement” and was very suitable for Junior C hoirs m Church services.
