Lavis, Clinton PRODUCT OF GENERAL MOTORS OF CANADA,,LIMITBD a memorial; service, not for, her moth- er, althou;;h she naturally ehose the anniversary; of he' nnither's passing, hut t for all mothers, and at this ub- lie service the sentiment which is back of the observance since was Chrystal= ized in the words of this loving daugh ter: "In honour of the best mother that ever lived—your mother." The wearing of a white carnation was a part of the first observance of this day, as it was primarily' in hon- our of the mothers who have gone on, but as the movement widened into a day for the honouring of all mothers, living or:.»dead, the wearing of any flower was taken to serve. The moth- er' S oth-er's favorite flower would, be a good choice, a colored flower for the moth- er who is still With pus; white for those who have gone on,. The custom of sending flowers or other gifts to the mother has also grown up and is very generally observed, or the writing of letters by those who are absent from home... The custom of honouring "Mother's Day" soon, spread over the United States and Canada, other countries as well, and now it has become an almost universal custom, .Churches all ov- er the land observe this day, the see. ond Sunday in May, in honour of "Mother." Although this movement was start. ed by a young Philadelphia, girl as late as 1908, twenty years agog almost the same custom was observed in England many, many years ago, the fottrth Sunday in Lent being called "Mothering Day," from an ancient ob- servance o£ the day as the day on which girls and boys who were away fromhome should visit their parents, especially the mothers, bringing them aon'ie little gift, a trinket or a certain sort of cake, which was considered ap- propriate to the occasion. A youth engaged in this duty was said to "go a -mothering," and the day, came to be called "Mothering Sunday." One can easily imagine how, after a boy or girl had left home, the parents would come to look forward to this annual visit, signalized as custom demanded it should be, by some noveland per - /tape, surprising gift. So, it is seen, in the observance of this day history has repeated itself. It is not likely that Miss Jarvis had ever heard of "Mothering. Sunday," but she loved her mother, just as men and women have done throughout the ages and she wished to honour her memory and, it is hoped, hien and wo. men will continue to do so during the centuries yeti to be, for there is no sweeter nor more ennobling sentiment than filial affection.

He is also worthy of some reverence and affection. Now that housecleaning is in full swing many housewives have some fine woollen garments which they wish to wash before. packing away, Here are some useful hints: Before washing jerseys and woolens test for washing quality:. --Squeeze a sample or pocket or other inconspic-• nous part ,of the.gar'meet in lukewarm suds made" fr m pure soap flakes for five minutes. Rinse.' Pat. out moisture with e towel: Shape ,and when dry compare with unwashed material:. ,I$ color or texture has' not changed, wash as follows -- Before washing lay flat and take all measurements, width acoss shoulders, length, front and back; length of sleeve, width at bottom, size of neck, eta Use enough soap flakes to make plentiful suds. All washing and rins- ing waters must be of the same tem. perature—•1ukewarrn, 100 degrees P. Outline badly soiled'parts with bast- ing thread and gently work soap suds into them, using finger tips. Squeeze the suds repeatedly through the :soiled parts. DO NOT PULL NOR TWIST. To prevent stretching keep garment under water while washing and lift in, a mass. Use second suds of same temperature, 100 degrees P. Rinse in two or more lukewarm water's. A very little blu- ing is suggested for white woolens. Quick drying is essential. Fold in towels, protecting colors by inserting towels between all folds. Pass through loose wringer or roll tightly, changing towels constantly, until dry enough to shape. Lay on flat surface covered with absorbent cloths. Shape to or- iginal measurements. Plane towels between folds of the material so that no two surfaces touch each other. The sleeves may be further protected by inserting tissue paper. Baby garments and woolen hosiery preserve their size and shape best when dried on forms. Ballbriggan and jersey should be ir- oned on the wrong side when almost dry with moderate iron, Brushed woolens will be soft and fluffy if brushed when dry. Use a stiff brush and work with the nap. Some useful household hints: Ink Stains:Ink can be removed from washing material by sprinkling a little tomato juice on to the stain. Af- ter leaving for a few minutes wash in the ordinary way. Fruit Stains: Fruit stains may be taken out of tablecloths by stretching the stained part Across a basin and pouring boiling water to which a lit- tle borax is added through it. Re- verse and repeat the process from the other side. All this should be done as soon as possible after the stain has been made. Te Clean Rusty Knives: Thrust the blades into onions and leave for about an hour; then polish them with ordinary powder. • To Brighten Mirror: A little camphor rubbed on a mirror after the dust has been wiped off will brighten it wonderfully. To Keep Cheese: To keep cheese from becoming dry or mouldy, damp a piece of muslin with vinegar, wrap round the cheese and keep it in a cov- ered dish. To Improve Potatoes: To improve the flavor of old potatoes and pre- vent them from turning black. add a little milk or a few drops of vinegar to the water in which they are boiled. To Remove Damp Smell: If a cellar has a damp smell and cannot be thoroughly ventilated, a few trays of charcoal set on the floors shelves and ledges will make the air pure and sweet. Cooping Green Vegetables: When cooking green vegetables add a crust of bread to the water. This will pre- vent the unpleasant odor.
