Mother's Day The observance of Mother's Day is a recent one in (the Unfitted States, be ginning only in 1907. Then it was the idea (of Miss Anna M. IJarvis, of Phil adelphia, that tilt leaf once a year sons and daughters should pay (tribute to their midthers. Mies Jarvto ar ranged for a special Motlher'iB service Sn one of the Philadelphia churches and suggested Ithalt white carnations be worn by those attending. The observance, on the second Sunday- in May, has rapidly spread o every part of the United Stated and the fadt that it became a custom in all the states only four years after it had been suggested' (testifies to the sentiment for such an observance fa, this country. In laiter years, the custom of wear ing a white carnation on Mother's Day was changed and those whose moth ers were still alive wore red flowers, instead of white. iFdrst observed in the United States. " Mother's Day has become Ian international occasion, and mothers in every area of the world are now (honored each year on Moth er Day. More than anyone else, the mdther who cares for both Home and her chil dren is destined to influence the char acter and future wf the country. And often this responsibility is combined With a back-breaking aind steady or deal of sewing, washing, mendilng, cleaning and teaching. It is to this mother, who dedicates her life tto her home, her family and children, that the country owes a debt of gratitude. It is thin mother who represenlts the finest, and sweetest ideals of civilization. ' '' ' , fldotball fans lb teuin Ithalt college television will be strictly limited again this year.

Farmer's line and thence along Farmer's line to the line Sinkless Bathing Suit A British business maji said re cently tftiat a sw4m isuit would soon appear on the American market which would be unsinkable. The secret is a so-called "breathing-fabric" which is sewed inside the swimming suit. The British manufacturer, Mark Shaw, says the Built has been selling we'll in England and (that it has re cently been introduced in Canada. He has assigned the rights h an Ameri can company Itb manufacture similar suits for children. He describes the suit as having no 'effect on surface swimming, except to give the swim mer beKter speed, though he admits it makes underwater swimming difficult. The suit supposedly will enable chil dren to learn to swrni in a short time and be valuable ais a safefty. factor. The breathing fabric is actually tight ly woven cotton cloth, known as "ven. tile," in the trade, originally develop. ed by the British Government. A small, thin piece of this fabric is sewed inside the suit and provides the buoyancy. We cant help but wonder if the modern Bikini contains enough isew ing area to make the average young thins? unsinkalble. If Mr. Shaw's handkerchief thin "breathing fabric" S9wed inside Ithese Bikinis can float a human indefinitely, as claimed, it is an outstanding development. . of Bethel Church property (white); eS of Iur to the undersigned at Route 1, 'Bei- videre, N.
