to Be Sung on Mother's Day
Carl Fischer, Inc., Issue "A Mother's Day Of-
fering" to Mark That Annual Event in a
Fitt'ng Manner with Music
"Mother's Day," May 10, has in recent
years been celebrated in a manner fitting for
Mich an occasion. There has also been some
more recent efforts to link up this important
day with music and, of course, there could be
nothing more appropriate. However, most of
such plans have been thoroughly commercial
and have lacked the proper element to give
them sufficient dignity to win widespread ap-
peal.
Music, however, should be a prominent part
of a Mother's Day celebration. In fact, there
is no other method that could make the occa-
sion more impressive, and particularly is this
true where children are concerned. Linking
music up with the child mind through the aid
of musical events will indeed make the day an
impressive one.
Carl Fischer, Inc., therefore, are to be com-
plimented upon the new song by Lola John-
son called "A Mother's Day Offering," arranged
for unison and for children's voices. Here is
an appropriate and impressive song which con-
tains the proper spirit befitting so important an oc-
casion. The very title commends itself and the
trade, the music profession, and particularly
those in the teaching branches, including the
schools, should accord it the recognition it de-
serves. It is incumbent upon the dealer to sec
that all those who should be interested have

Fischer Co. has issued a special presentation
edition of "A Mother's Day Offering" which
should enhance its value.
