Mother's Day Has Meaning Somehow, Mother's Day Ls a little different from other hol idays and special occasions. Christmas has a deep religious meaning, as has Esater. But too many of us look upon Christmas merely as a time to get and give a lot of presents as well as birthdays and on Ea ster as a day for wearing new clothes or hunting a few hid den eggs. Other holidays usually mean a day of freedom from work, a chance to eat a lot, or shoot off fireworks, or watch a parade, or to have some sort of celebra tion for our own special pleas ure and enjoyment. But on Mother's Day we are unselfish. We think of somebody other than ourselves. It is a day set aside to express to our moth ers the love and honor and re spect which we hold for them. We do not decorate the house or march behind a band or hold a gay party. We simply give her flowers or some other gift, and try to make her realize in some small way what she means to us. A reader tells us about an unusual example of business in sight. In a remote section of the South the owner of a private ferry boat has posted a large sign at the dock. "Passengers must pay in advance as the boat leaks." 21 In.
