Homage to First of War Mothers
Impressive Ceremonies at Arlington Amphitheatre on Mothers' Day, May 10
(Correspondence to The Gazette)
Washington, D. C., May 7—The American War Mothers will hold ceremonies at Arlington amphitheatre, that will be linked with the memory of George Washington through an address to be delivered on "The First American War Mother—George Washington's Mother," by Sol Bloom, associate director of the U. S. George Washington Bi-centennial Commission. Congressman Bloom will dwell upon Mary Ball Washington's great service in the gift of her son to America and to the world, and on the strain on her courage during his dangerous days in battle.
An Aisle of Honor
The address will also call upon all the War Mothers, especially to join their efforts with those of the Bicentennial Commission in its plans for the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington in 1932. The ceremonies arranged by the War Mothers for this occasion at Arlington on Mothers' Day will be most solemn and impressive. Most striking of all will be an "Aisle of Honor" formed by the Gold Star War Mothers carrying garlands of laurel and white carnations—the carnations serving as the Mothers' symbol, and the laurel as the heroes' emblem. Through this living aisle will pass representatives of 35 patriotic organizations, to place flowers on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Prominent among these organizations will be the Virginia State Department of the American Legion, 300 in number, with their mothers and wives.
Program at Arlington
The program as arranged includes music by the United States Marine Band, an invocation by Captain Sidney Keys Evans, chief of chaplains of the United States Navy; and addresses by Mrs. Virgil McClure, national president of the American War Mothers; by Major General John L. DeWitt, quartermaster general, United States Army; on "The Mothers' Pilgrimage;" with a closing address by the Secretary of War, Patrick Hurley.
Staff Sergeant Frank Witchey, 3d U. S. Cavalry, who sounded "taps" at the burial of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington on the first Armistice Day, 1921, will sound the same call on this occasion, and the program will be interspersed with other music.
At Lincoln Memorial
At 4 o'clock on Mothers' Day, the American War Mothers will hold another ceremony at the Lincoln Memorial, when four trees will be planted and dedicated to the four past national presidents of the association. These are Mrs. Alice M. French, founder of the association; Mrs. Mabel D. Digney, Mrs. Margaret N. McClure, and Mrs. Mary Spence.
The ritual of the American War Mothers will be used, conducted by the National president, Mrs. Virgil McClure, and the address will be by Gen. Amos A. Fries. Music will be furnished by the 20th Marine Band, and the Junior 20th Marines will form a guard of honor.
The Second Pilgrimage
While these observances are being conducted on land, other American Gold Star Mothers will be at sea on
