Father’s DayPast And Present

New York (NAPS* — The king of the jungle provides a regal distinction for fathers among Dinka natives in Africa. Traditionally, young men of this tribe present their fathers with the skm of the first lion they kill' There are many other ways — past and ‘present ’’ —of making the man of the house feel like a king. The ancient Greeks held a feast at which father was given the lion’s share of the best food and drink at the table, and a predinner libation was poured to the fathers of the community. In ancient China, where great age stood for great prestige, lionized fathers frequently {referred the gift of a “longevity robe.” The gown, made of costly silk embroidered with the Chinese characters for “long life.” was considered most effective if sewn by a young person likely to live a long time. Our Father’s Day originated in 1910 with Mrs. John Dodd of Spokane. Washington. The woman wished to honor her father. William Smart, for his devotion and kindness in rearing six children In the United States, the third Sunday of June is now so important an occasion that 50 million families are expected to spend more than a billion dollars each year on toiletries and ties, and bowling balls. Old Spice and new cushions for the "lion’s" den. Os this total, a sizeable chunk will go for toiletry items such as Old Spice after shave lotion, “super smooth shave," shaving mugs complete with soap, and various gift box assortments. Father’s chores and roles differ in fascinating ways around the world. In parts of the Near and Far East, father has almost complete acuse, assisted by Judy Willard, Syracuse, was hostess and also presided at the round cake table covered with antique satin and graced with silver candelabra. Kris Prickett of Syracuse had charge of the guest book. Following a wedding trip to San Francisco. Calif., the newlyweds will make temporary residence in Goshen after July 1.

control over his children, but must still defer to grandfather. Several generations may live under one roof, and the patriarch dominates them all. Boys and girls in one NewGuinea area learn that doing a tribal dance and carving ritual masks is man’s work — and that it is mother’s job to catch the fish and till the fields that feed the family. .Also in New Guinea, men of another tribe would recoil in horror at the thought of striking their children. To them, a child’s tears are a tragedy. And one of Dad’s biggest jobs is to see that his children never cry. In contrast, tribesmen of the Russian Caucasus are so stern that they never play with their babies. Public opinion brands as effeminate the man who fondles his children. Custom, however, does permit father to take the hand of his youngster when walking . . . once the child has reached the age of four. A researcher for the Shulton company found that on one island in the South Pacific, a son refers to his father by a, name that means “my mother’s husband.” Dad’s role is downgraded in the tribe which believes that spirits are the true fathers of mankind. Another exotic custom related to fatherhood might be more to the taste of American men. Among some African and South American peoples, fathers fear that they might endanger their newborn children by going about their daily chores. Instead, they take to bed for a few days and do absolutely nothing. Today, it may be a proud moment when an American father names his newborn son and heir after himself. But among tribesmen in India a father feels equally proud when he takes his child’s name. Known thereafter as "Father of So-a nd So.’’ Dad makes the lion-hearted gesture of dropping his own name immediately after the birth!
