Show A REAL FATHERS DAY the old saying acknowledges that even every dog has his day and in this age of days av for this and days for that the poor old calendar is stretched all out of shape trying to accommodate them it would seem that even dad should have one bona fide day all to himself it is true that some well mean ing old soul conceived the idea of dedicating a certain day in june to father inasmuch as mother was given a special sunday in may which is so generally and faithfully observed but somehow this dads day stuff lias has never been such a whale of a success just like a miniature chris christmas amas poor old dad has been given a pair of socks a misfit necktie or even a pair of cuff links and the bill that came for these presents the first of the following month added grief to the embarrassment he experienced on receiving the gifts but oh boy this year in utah pad dad is to have a real day at last june 15 not only is the official day for the recognition of pater fa milias but it is the annual occasion to which nine out of ten fathers look forward to more than any other day of the year this date marks the formal opening of the fishing season and if there are any dads to be found at home to preside at the family dinner and receive his quota of superfluous socks and ties it probably will be found that he is either laid up with the gout or so firmly anch anchored lored with his ball and chain that he would not constitute a serious menace to the finny tribe anyway so for once lets give the devil his due and dad Ms his day |
