Much in, Emraah, Mater, Mere, Mom. Put them all together -?they spell "mother" in eight different languages. For no language alone adequately can convey the universal bond between mother and child. A look at motherhood in different parts of the world points up some of the ways in which the good woman has earned respect and reverence. Her roles in many cultures vary even more than her ! name Some Soviet mothers | are awarded silver and even gold medals, and a few j achieve the status of "Hero Mother " yet many still swad dle. their infants. A Mexican mother needs no babysitter while she works: she carries her tot with her. Italian mot hers pin gold charms to their babies' shirts, while many a Chinese mother still solemnly binds her infant daughter's In ancient history, an Egyptian pharaoh carved into his mother's tomb the words: "One thing along is better and more beautiful than any thing under the rays of the Sun God. It is mother." More recently. Abraham Lincoln said: "All that I am or hope to be I owe to my mother." Remarkably, a town once honored a mother who took care of 53 children at one time by erecting a plaque to her 400 years later. Napoleon echoed the feelings of many children when he said that his mother was "unique . women". But it is diffi surpass the devotion of ish Lord who sent his mother a letter every day-for fifty feet yews. Today's practice of send ing flowers to mother flour- ' i shed in a different form cen turies ago The Mediterranean and Mideastern pre-Christian& had annual showers of flow ers in honor of the Mother of Gods. Under the name of Cybele. she was borrowed from the 1 Phrygians of Asia Minor by ' Emperor Claudius and incor porated into Rome's March salute to spring -a three-day fiesta that featured wreaths of violets. But expressions of affec tion for mothers today are not confined to any particu lar time of the year. Sending flowers almost anywhere on earth is made possible through Florists' Transworld Delivery Association. ? Now coming into vogue is a new system which enables you to send a permanent gift to mother along with flowers. Called FTD "Speed-A-Gift." delivery service. It is the first out-of-town flower service that lets you send a bouquet, a greeting and a present over the phone. Some of the gifts are a copper chafing dish, pitcher and bowl, coffee grin der. fondue dish, cup and saucer, drunking mug. water ing can. silent butler, tea ket t>e. silver bowl and ice buc ket For the average man or woman, such are as eloquent as words. One man who didn't spare the words was the late Prime Minister Mack enzie King of Canada, who once sent his mother a letter 21,000 words long! Motherhood, according to Rebecca West, is "neither a duty nor a privilege but sim ply the way that humanity can satisfy its desire for physical immortality." Through thp ages, rever ence for mothers has been expressed in many forms in both mythology and folklore, reflecting religious beliefs on the one hand and human af fection on the other An an cient Hebrew proverb had it that "God couldn't be every where at once, so he had to create mothers." Also in a religious vein, Samuel Cole ridge called mothers "the holiest things alive." And Wil liam Thackery called her "the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children." In spite of all the words of wisdom, a fallacy still pre vails. It is that Mother's Day comes once a year. Mothers know better. Mother's Day cymes every time a son or daughter says. "I love you." Garden Time By M. E. Gardner For this column I am using parts of an article which ap peared in "The Gardener", a publication of the Men's Gar den Clubs of America. It was prepared by Dr. Ralph M. Watkins <MD) of Chapel Hill. Dr. Watkins is a member of the Chapel Hill Men's Garden Club. "There is a dearth of li terature on the specific rela tionship between health and the growing of garden pro ducts. One can only use rea son to come to the conclu sion that this type of activity does promote physical and mental well-being. "A medical axiom is to the point that a man should do ?ll the physical work he com fortably can for as long as he can. Exercise up W the toler ance point is a good thing.

If one carries out such a program conscientiously and is reasonably careful about his diet, he can avoid the problems of obesity, a plague of the older man. "There apparently are few figures ps to the incidence of coronary attacks in men who follow the above practices, but it is safe to say that such attacks are decidedly less fre quent.
