Notes From <strong>June</strong> 1977<br />
It’s been downright hot this<br />
month. The interview we<br />
gave in May was published.<br />
The reporter did a great job.<br />
She also talked to the Sheriff<br />
Father's Day <strong>June</strong> 19<br />
<strong>June</strong> 19 is sure to be a blast! We will be<br />
having a Father's Day build your own boat!<br />
(Duct tape and cardboard will be supplied)<br />
Get your plans together to float your boat!<br />
Dodd.<br />
The Origin Of Father's Day<br />
The idea for an official Father’s Day celebration<br />
came to a married daughter, seated in a church<br />
in Spokane, Washington, attentive to a Sunday<br />
sermon on Mother’s Day in 1910-two years<br />
after the first Mother’s Day observance in West<br />
Virginia. The daughter was Mrs. Sonora Smart<br />
During the sermon, which extolled maternal sacrifices made for<br />
children, Mrs. Dodd realized that in her own family it had been<br />
her father, William Jackson Smart, a Civil War veteran, who had<br />
sacrificed-raising herself and five sons alone, following the early<br />
death of his wife in childbirth. For Mrs. Dodd, the hardships her<br />
father had endured on their eastern Washington farm called to<br />
mind the unsung feats of fathers everywhere.<br />
Her proposed local Father’s Day celebration received strong<br />
support from the town’s ministers and members of the Spokane<br />
YMCA. The date suggested for the festivities, <strong>June</strong> 5, Mrs.<br />
Dodd’s father’s birthdays were three weeks away-had to be<br />
moved back to the nineteenth when ministers claimed they need<br />
extra time to prepare sermons on such a new subject as Father.<br />
Newspapers across the country, already endorsing the need for<br />
a national Mother’s Day, carried stories about the unique<br />
Spokane observance. Interest in Father’s Day increased.<br />
Among the first notables to support Mrs. Dodd’s idea nationally<br />
was the orator and political leader William Jennings Bryan, who<br />
also backed Mother’s Day. Believing that fathers must not be<br />
slighted, he wrote to Mrs. Dodd, "too much emphasis cannot be<br />
placed upon the relation between parent and child."<br />
Father’s Day, however, was not so quickly accepted as Mother’s<br />
Day. Members of the all-male Congress felt that a move to<br />
proclaim the day official might be interpreted as a selfcongratulatory<br />
pat on the back.<br />
In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson and his family personally<br />
observed the day. And in 1924, President Calvin Coolidge<br />
recommended that states, if they wished, should hold their own<br />
Father’s Day observances. He wrote to the nation’s governors<br />
that "the widespread observance of this occasion is calculated
who stated that Apollo has<br />
been here for a year and he<br />
has had no concerns or<br />
problems with us. We’ve<br />
also had great response<br />
from the article. Free<br />
advertising is great!<br />
Our spur of the moment<br />
cookouts have turned into<br />
Sunday pot luck dinners and<br />
are a big hit with everyone.<br />
We are picking something<br />
every day from our garden.<br />
Nothing like working in soil to<br />
keep you sane!<br />
While walking in the woods<br />
one day, we found lots of<br />
blueberry bushes and<br />
started picking.<br />
My better half was in<br />
Massachusetts for three<br />
days. While he was gone, I<br />
met up with a black bear<br />
near the bathhouse. I was so<br />
surprised! Now this wasn’t a<br />
Grizzly of Klondike. He was<br />
on the small side, but my<br />
dog and I retreated into the<br />
bathroom until he left.<br />
We are planning a Royalty<br />
Pageant for July 4 th . I hope<br />
we are not biting off more<br />
than we can chew!<br />
There are five mobile homes<br />
in Vinwood. Civilization is<br />
creeping in on us!<br />
Continued next month........<br />
to establish more intimate relations between fathers and their<br />
children, and also to impress upon fathers the full measure of<br />
their obligations."<br />
Many people attempted to secure official recognition for Father’s<br />
Day. One of the most notable efforts was made in 1957, by<br />
Senator Margaret Chase Smith, who wrote forcefully to<br />
Congress that "Either we honor both our parents, mother and<br />
father, or let us desist from honoring either one. But to single out<br />
just one of our two parents and omit the other is the most<br />
grievous insult imaginable."<br />
Eventually, in 1972 and sixty two long years after it was<br />
proposed, Father’s Day was permanently established by<br />
President Richard Nixon.<br />
Historians seeking an ancient precedent for an official Father’s<br />
Day observance have come up with only one: history shows that<br />
each February, the ancient Romans honored fathers, but only<br />
those deceased.<br />
In America today, Father’s Day is the fifth largest card-sending<br />
occasion with about 85 million greeting cards exchanged.<br />
