SOCIAL WHIRL
Dedicated to the grandest dad in the world, J. EMMETT BRIZENTINE! 'Tt'yf’ I\S. John Bruce Dodd of Spokane, Wash., has been credIVL ited as founder of the first Father’s Day observance and she conceived the idea in 1910 when she was inspired by the successful and courageous way her own father had reared his family of small children after the death of hi?, wife and their mother. Mrs. Dodd wrote a letter to the head of a mininterial organization of that city, appealing to him to set aside a special Sunday for fathers in the churches and elsewhere and it was thus the first Father’s Dav was observed, in June 1910. ****** Later the idea was accepted in Chicago where Miss Jane Adams approved the idea and said that a certain day should be designated and set aside to recognize fathers and all the many good things they do and have done for their families'. From time to time other cities in various parts of the country accepted the idea and held observances on different dates and in 1934, it was declared that the third Sunday in June should be set aside and observed nationally as Fair’s Day. ****** Sunday is Father’s Day and we should wear a red rose for our Ihing fathers and a white rose for the dead as also conceived by Mrs. Dodd in her first observice of Father's Day back in 1910 About our dads, sometimes we put little stress on that father: the one who has shouldered the maintenance of keeping mother supplied with money for food, shelter and clothing. We forget about the jobs he’s had to find, and the storms he’s had to weather in making it possible for the three basic necessities of life to say nothing of helping us from birth to mold our footsteps into the makings of fine men and women and in our pursuits of happiness! ****** It is a man’s world and so often we forget to shower a little respect, a little encouragement, and a kindly word toward the efforts be they ever so humble, that father has made in making it possible for us to have an education and an environment which tends to give us the backgrounds of finer woman and manhood, because fathers are not so boastful. They are some.imes meek, unassuming to a certain degree, uhich tends to make us lean more readily to the strong-minded and enveloping love and unnderstanding mother, and who is in her strong mindedness and enveloping love might tend to often forget, herself, that whatever she wants to do. whatever her desires and ambitions for the child may be, there must be funds to come from that unassuming and meek father to make these desires possible. ****** We hear words of a restraintive nature when speaking of one’s lather and it should never be If fathers were not an essential many child's life, we would not have them, and since ue have them regardless as to what type of contribution they have made to our welfare, pro or con, let’s not be too hasty in ignoring any little thing that he may have done. Sometimes wc find lazy, shiftless father, (so we are tought), but sometimes after we are grown-ups we find that somewhere down the line, the wrong side of the story has been told about daddy, ai d when you get to know him, maybe he isn’t such a bad.fellow after all ... . even though father has never really done anything for which mother thinks he needs any credit, don’t ..you be too hasty in reprimanding him for his short-com-ings because as always, there are two sides to every storv and sometimes a woman, yes, sometimes we are guilty of destroying every spark of ambition and energy in a man's being by demanding so much more from him than we actually want to give ourselves .... by seeing to it that he receives no credi. nor encouragement for the minute things he may have done to make our livuihood possible. Sometimes mpthers are possessed with an overwhelming love that comes from the birth of a child after we’ve gone down into the valley of the shadow of death and we draw up ourselves, those little inner selves and steal ourselves against the fatners of our children; we become obsessed with a desire to make him pay for the sufferings we have endured in carrying the child and in giving it birth and we become absorbed in a world ail our own in which nothing exists but our babies and their welfares and we forget all else .... the moonlight nights when the father was the most handsome man on earth . . when he whispered sweet nothings in our ears when we were prone to defy mother’s wishes and admonitions and seek the mysteries surrounding that certain something we called LOVE! ****** As surely as God is the Father of mankind and we all claim Him the Omnipotent and as surely as He made the Heavens and Earths'and rested and then made Adam who was the father of man of the human flesh, fathers were intended to be, and it behooves all of us to love, honor and obey them as well as our mothers, that the days of our lives might be longer! .... As has been said, daddy is not boastful, and he’s quiet and unassuming and shows no particular interest, first when we approach him, and most any little token of appreciation will be appreciated by him .... it’s not the fathers who expect so much from us after we are grown .... it's not dad who thinks that you are too good for this man’s son, or not good enough lor this man’s daughter .... it’s not dad who thinks that you should be the best dressed child in the neighborhood nor the poorest dressed it isn t dad who thinks that you shouldn’t play with this man’s son or that man’s daughter, nor is it dad who spends all his life molding an artificial dream around you hoping against hope and planning against realities ad the gods of fate .... but it most certainly is father who stands idly by and watches you grow, whether wi.h mother or not, who does not interfere in any manner in whatever way she want! to mold your life, and it most certainly is father, who after'mother may have passed away steps up ad assumes the responsibility where she left off .... it is father to whom a daughter should become a pal and offer her problems of life so thfct he might be able to hand down his philosophies about the other men m his world .... it is father who lets mother h^ve her way and do as she sees fit and please, (whether right or wi'ong) and whether selfish or unselfish, but it is he who is standing e\er ready behind her to back up any effort she undertakes and any reprimanding which should come from him at the time mother simply puts her foot down and demands it! J ****** Those of you who don’t know a father’s love, really don’t knoW just what pleasure you have been denied! .... If separation, by divorce or death, came shortly after you were born . . . . you’ve been denied a great deal of pleasure and justice as a growing citizen of the United States .... and your shortcomings As' men and women may easily be traced to the fact that ypurUife has b3en one-sided .... living a one-sided life has natulally had its tendency to make your thoughts also onesided find your mind corrupted wi.h the undoings of life to the extent that you may have a manufactured idea of hatred against your father It’s not having a father around that causes many child to go astray .... believe it or not, because mother just can’t do it all by herself and though she may sacrifice and make all kinds of contributions to .the shortcom-
