Show Sun Chronicle-Advertis- Thursday, June 17, er Fathers Day Fathers Day is probably e the most difficult holiday to shop for. All too often the man of the house "has everything and wants nothing. Not true. The one gift most men appreciate is a new shaver. Think about it. Its something he uses every day so it wont be tucked away in a drawer. Its mechanical and men love anything mechanical, from cars to shavers to electric can openers. Although the modern concept of Fathers Day is American as apple pie and Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, its founder, the observance has spread throughout the world until it is celebrated, in some form, in most industrialized nations. Canada marks the day at the same time as the United States. In many parts of Latin Europe, Fathers Day is celebrated on Nativity Day, which occurs in the early Spring. Here the observance is yet the cusis as much tom of a part of the event as it is here. In South Africa, a National Fathers Day Committee exists, but it has not yet developed to the highly sophisticated state as we see here at home. The same is true of Australia, where there is an outpouring of emotion in tribute to Dad. counSome thirty-sevetries formally observe Fathers Day and the list is growing spontaneously, year by year. Practical Gift Last, but surely not least from his point of view, its church-oriente- gift-givin- not overly extravagant. In fact its really very practical. When shopping for just the right shaver it would be well to bear a couple of points in mind. The shaver should give a close shave in a relatively short amount of time. It should have a trimmer for the sideburns more and more Dads are sporting these days. g Zooming in with Dad Taking home movies has become a favorite pastime for fathers everywhere, especially with such e thoughtful and pretty family helpers . . . and a new, GAF Colt 94 Super 8 zoom movie camera.
