In the U.S. Mothers' Day is a holiday celebrated on cond

Sunday in May. It is a day when children honor their mothers with

cards, gifts, and flowers. First obrvance in Philadelphia, Pa. in

1907, it is bad on suggestions by Julia Ward Howe in 1872 and

by Anna Jarvis in 1907.

Although it wasn't celebrated in the U.S. until 1907, there

were days honoring mothers even in the days of ancient Greece.

In tho days, however, it was Rhea, the Mother of the gods that

was given honor.

Later, in the 1600's, in England there was an annual

obrvance called "Mothering Sunday." It was celebrated during

June, on the fourth Sunday. On Mothering Sunday, the rvants,

who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to

return home and honor their mothers. It was traditional for them

to bring a special cake along to celebrate the occasion.

In the U.S., in 1907 Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a

campaign to establish a national Mother's Day. Jarvis persuaded

her mother's church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate

Mother's Day on the cond anniversary of her mother's death,

the 2nd Sunday of May. The next year Mother's Day was also

celebrated in Philadelphia.

Jarvis and others began a letter-writing campaign to

ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish

a national Mother's Day. They were successful. President

Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement

proclaiming Mother's Day a national obrvance that was to be

held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

Many other countries of the world celebrate their own

Mother's Day at different times throughout the year. Denmark,

Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium celebrate Mother's

Day on the cond Sunday in May, as in the U.S.
