When wo come to tho annual ccle bration of Mothers' Day thu preacher wa ii'.s a sure enough text. Whore could ono bo found of rarer beauty or moro real significance than this picture given by one of the biog raphers of Jesus: .'Thom was standing hy tho cross of Jesus, His mother, When Jesus therefore saw His motlier and tho disciple standing hy, whom Ho loved, Hu saith unto His motlier, 'Woman, behold thy Son.' Then saith He to tho disciple, 'tiebold . thy mother'." Here is humanity at its best. A mother who could bear a son to die tor others would of course be found mar tho cross ill this hour of His deepest need. That she could rear such a .Sou might be explained on the ground of His unique origin. Bul '.hat she would be willing to give up such a Son for the service of human ity is tho supreme triumph of mo therhood. Here sho roars the stand ard of womanhood to its loftiest limits. That soft sentimentality which sings its selfishness in the song, "I Did Not Rear My Boy to Bo a Soldier," could never climb the heights of Golgotha and stand by a redeeming cross. Hore motherhood rises responsive to the noblest ap peal. Tho Significance of tho Feast. Then there is the other side of the picture. Thor? was conferred upon Jehu that day the highest honor ever bestowed upon a man. .Jesus gave into his keeping the most sacred of all trusts, with tho words "My Mo ther" and "Thy .Mother." lt is said ll.al from that hour the homo of John became the home of Mary. But I believe we shall miss the deeper meaning of His words if we do not clearly understand that, as was His wont, He was speaking to a world of men through this man. Hore man hood in this highest and holiest mo ment commends motherhood to the chivalric care of men as the most sacred obligation. Tho significance of the scene conies with a profound ly solemn meaning when we can bear Jesus saying to tho men of to-day, RS Ho points to tho womanhood of j the world, "Behold thy Mother." And i lt is something infinitely moro than the mere appeal to physical strength j lo protect physical weakness, lt is an appeal for tho actual preservation ' of the human rare, ll calls for the conservation ol' those faculties and forces by which civilization luis come thus far, and by which alone we can ever hope to reach thc highest levels Of life. How many of the most familiar experiences are the profoundest mys tories? Stand before any mother and hor babe, and you are standing in tho presence of the miracle of crea tion. Look for a momcu'. from the face of the child, vita its well-nigh limitless possibilities of reason and emotion, ambition and accomplish ment, into tho face of the mother. She has brought into existence a person-the clearest expression that we have of the mina and will of God. .Here ls a permanent contribution to the conscious forces of the universe. Here is something more than a more energy, which will bo driven along a pathway preordained by unchange able law. Hero ls a force which shall choose its own ways and Im press tho universe in which it moves by the quality of its own thought and aspiration. In this little bundle of possibilities, which we call a babe, lie latent, Inevitable and irresistible forces which shall help to make maps and point tho pathway of history. Tho Conservation of Life. This lifo force then is our most precious possession and our most sa cred trust. Instead of the shamed veil which we have drawn across this sacred otllco wo should boro focus our best thought and most reverent reason. For here at the fountain of Ufo ls tho most potent place to in fluence lifo. To make a better world lt ls absolutely necessary to make a better motherhood. Wo must faco tho fact that upon tho ability of womanhood to boar and rear sound children depends tho v/holo future of tho race. It is cl lin en 11 oven to suggest tho tremendous ?meaning of this. Upon this ls de pendent the nation's destiny, its dreams of achievement in commerce, arl, literature and religion, For hero are tho springs of tho life of to-mor row the source of its thought, tho stamina of its accomplishment and tho quality of its purposes. lt is from this standpoint that wo must look at tho changed, and ever changing, industrial conditions of our lifo. Ever increasing thousands of girls nro leaving our homes, with tholr traditional caro and protection, and entering tho lifo of the store. Hie office nnd tho factory- Here con ditions nro totally changed. Aro tlieso conditions and surroundings favorable to tho preparation of wo manhood to be tho mothers of a new generation? Once wo look at tho girlhood of our land from this stand point, all of those so-called economic questions of wage and boura, work ing con.Iii ions and recreation, be come the most vital problems which can face a patriotic people. A Challenge to Chivalry. While tho sons of our land are to day making their reverent and affec tionate gestures, in (lowers or love messages, to the memories of their mothers, 1 am praying that their sympathies may be broadened until they shall Include all tho womanhood of America. Would that every son of them could come to understand that every man who, by story or innu endo, word or act, countenances sen suality, ls adding the weight of his i influence to drag down tho standard of tho motherhood of his nation. Here indeed is an opportunity for chivalry which should challenge tho noblest possibilities of manhood. Let him look nt tho unprotected girls of his city. They aro attacked by a thousand subtle Influences, each one seeking to soil her lifo. Let the sons who lovo the ..lemorles of their mo thers league, themselves for the pro tection of tho unguarded mother hood of tho future. MOTHER!
