WHISPERING PINES<br />

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 />
