It is not the experience of today that causes the most anxiety. It is the remorse or bitterness for something which happened yesterday, or the dread of what tomorrow may bring.

A Philip R. Smith When the President of learned that "An Arrangement in Grey and France Black" was one of President Carter's favorite paintings, he borrowed it from the Louvre and had it hung in the room President Carter would occupy during his state visit to France. Another name for the famous painting "Whistler's Mother." is g. The other day we should not worry about is tomorrow, with its possible problems or promise. Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control. Tomorrow will come, but until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow: it is not yet a i: By -- That painting is familiar to and for many Americans good reason. At one time it was the custom to give reproductions of it to mothers on Mother's Day. It is estimated that several million reproductions of the painting have been made. The custom of holding a festival in honor of mothers is very old. It dates back in the Western world to the times of the ancient Greeks who worshipped Cybele, mother of gods. In the United States, the a Mother's Day International Association was formed in December of 1912 to encourage observance of the day. To overstate the obvious, everyone has a mother, so the observance caught on. In Congress made it official, designating the second Sunday of each May as Mother's Day. This year the date is May 14. 1914. One of the earliest observances of Mother's Day in the United States was inspired by Miss Anna M. Jarvis of Philadelphia who thought that at least once a year, sons and daughters should pay tribute to their mothers. She arranged for a special Mother's Day service in one of the local Philadelphia churches In the past few years, Mother's Day has also been a time for publicizing causes involving women. Supporters of the Eaual Rights Amendment, for example, point out that the hand that rocks the cradle and rules the world often gets unfair treatment under the law as a result of her status. But whatever one's feelings social and political issues, all agree that about such mothers deserve special recognition. And almost everyone would also agree that a collective portrait of today's mother could never be so simply titled as "An Arrangement in Grey and Black."
