Jarvis loved her mother dearly, and she suggested a national day to honor all mothers. At a memorial service for her mother on May 10, 1908, Anna gave a carnation, her mother's favorite flower, to everyone in attendance. Within a few years, the idea to honor mothers gained popularity, and Mother's Day was soon observed annually in many large cities of the United States. On May 9, 1914, by an act of Congress, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the second Sunday of May as Mother's Day. He established the day as a time for "public expression of our love and reverence for the mothers of our country." By then, it had become customary to wear white carnations in honor of departed mothers and red carnations to honor the living. The custom continues this day. Hug a mother on May 11th!</FONT></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="692" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="VOID" RULES="NONE" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 184 WIDTH="231"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="184" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="231" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="450"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="184" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="450" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
