How We Kept Mother’s Day
Of all the different ideas that have been started lately, I think that the very best is the notion of celebrating once a year “Mother’s Day.” I don’t wohat May the eleventh is being such a popular date all over Amerid I am sure the idea will spread to England too.
It is specially in a big family like ours that su idea take hold. So we decided to have a special celebration of Mother’s Day. We thought it a fine idea. It made us all realize how much Mother had done for us for years, and all the efforts and sacrifice that she had made for our sake.
So we decided that we’d make it a great day, a holiday for all the family, and do everything we could to make Mother happy. Father decided to take a holiday from his office, so as to help in celebrating the day, and my sister Anne and I stayed home from college class, and Mary and my brother Will stayed home from High School.
It was our plan to make it a day just like Xmas or any big holiday, and so we decided to decorate the hou with flowers and with mottoes over the mantel-pieces, and all that kind of thing. We got Mother to make mottoes and arrahe decoration, becau she always does it at Xmas.

The two girls thought it would be a hing to dress in our very best for such a big occasion, and so they both got new hats. Mother trimmed both the hats, and they looked fine, and Father had bought four-in-hand silk ties for himlf and us boys as a souvenir of the day to remember Mother by. We were going to get Mother a new hat too, but it turned out that she emed to really like her old grey bo better than a new one, and both the girls said that it was awfully being to her.
