Father s Day June 20
The setting aside of n day to honor father by
special senices in the churches began independently
in several parts of the country in different years A
general agreement was finally reached in which the
third Sunday in June was selected Credit for making
the first suggestion is Generally given Mrs John Bruce
Dodd of Spokane Washington Mrs Dodd conceived
the idea as a tribute to her father who reared a family
of children after the death of their mother She
suggested that the third Sunday In June be set apart
for the honoring of fathers and wrote to the Spokane
Ministerial Association to the effect The association
approved the proposal and the first observance of the
day occurred In Spokane in June 1010 Sons and daughters
were requested to wear a red rose if the father
was living and a white rose if the father was dead
Due to the fact that Fathers Day was observed
in a number of places independently through the country
beore the date of the third Sunday in June was
selected there is some difference of opinion as to the
exact origin of the starting of the movement and a
number of towns claim the honor For a number of
years effort was made by a number of organizations to
establish the clay and make its observance a regular
custom Gradually the day selected by Mrs John Bruce
Dodd of Spokane Washington came to be accepted as
the clay

As the confectioners and flor sts have found mothers
day profitable by offering special packages and
special boquets haberdashers and tobacconists have
featured neckties and special tobacco packages to be
presented father by sons and daughters In spite of all
the effort put forth Fathers Day lias never received
the support and measure of observance accorded Mothers

Weekly Sermon
BY THOMAS HASTWELL
Of the creation of man it is said God created in
his own image Ever since his creation man has been
in turn creating in his own image I do not have in
mind his offspring but rather the character and the
quality of work done as he goes about his daily task
or pursues his lifes vocation Whethei it is the simple
task of washng the dinner dishes repairing an automobile
or building a beautiful home the quality and
the character of the work done reflects the inner character
of the person who does it If the work is done
in a careless slipshod or slovenly manner it is because
the inner life of the worker is careless slipshod and
slovenly If the work is well and faithfully done it reflects
that kind of a life We create in our own image
Not only is this true of the work we do but it is true
of the life we live If we are mean and selfish toward
others it is because there is meanness and selfishness
in our hearts If we are generous and charitable and
kind it is because there is generosity and charity and
kindness in our hearts The things we do and the life
we live are done and lived in our own inner image

Strikes Are
Black Spot On
Wartime Record
BY FRANK DIXON
A condition has come into being
in this country which in the
light of the very general willingness
on the part of the majority
of Americans to be of service and
if necessary to make great sacrifices
for the country is difficult
to understand
I refer specifically to the disposition
of many workers engaged
in vital war Industries to strike
upon the slightest provocation
To my way of thinking it indicates
an attitude of selfishness
that is easily the blackest spot
on the countrys wartime record
These strikers seem to forget that
winning a war of this size calls
not only for sacrifices by the
young men on the battle front
but also the men who arc fortunate
enough to be permitted to
remain at home with family and
friends and to carry on their
work in safety and security
The tendency of certain workers
in several vital war industries
to go out on strikes for trivial
reasons indicates not only an
attitude of extreme selfishness
but an attitude of complete disregard
for the welfare of the nation
its soldiers in the field and
the cause for which they are
fighting
It is a disturbing thought that
while men and women all about
them are offering their lives in
defense of the nation and its liberty
and the whole atmosphere
is charged with patriotism and
sacrifice and selfiorgetfulness
that strikers will desert the cause
and give aid and comfort to the
enemy by impeding the war effortWc have succeeded in working
out the formula and the blueprint
by which we in harmony
th the oilier nations are going
to defeat the Axis All that remains
is to carry out these plans
which have been in operation long
enough to demonstrate that they
constitute a pattern by which the
war can be won We have met
and are exceeding our budget o
planes and ships and tanks and
guns Already the weight of these
is making itself felt in such a
manner that there is no longer
any doubt of the outcome if the
pcae we have set is kept up
Based on these goals we have
sent men to distant battle fronts
It is now up to us to furnish them
the necessary guns and tanks
and planes and food with which
to defend themselves and win
the victovy we have set out to
win This is a responsibility an
obligation that we cannot and
will not forget
The concern of this country today
is for its soldiers This s true
in every corner of the nation from
out of which sons and fathers and
loved ones have gone to fight the
fight of liberty There is little
sympathy to be found for the petty
and selfish bickering of those
who seek to take advantage of
the nations extremity to enforce
selfish demands
There is a general feeling that
the administration is definitely
not unfriendly toward labor There
is also a feeling that the War
Labor Board which is composed
of representatives of industry and
labor is not going to be unfair
to labor nor agree to its receiving
a below sustenance wage
Because of these things there
is a rising tide of sentiment
throughout the country against
the calling of strikes that will
impede the war effort In place
of the attitude of sympathy for
the striker has come one of impatience
and disgust The nation
has its mind set on winning the
war and on every citizen doing an
honest job of pitching until it is
won >

It will be smart business for every one who uses
coal as a means of winter fuel to begin at once to secure
a supply for next winter According to Howard A
Gray deputy solid fuels administrator coal is going to
become difficult to secure next winter All industrial
users are urged to build up a three to four months stockpileSince entering the war the United States Army has
bought 40000000 pairs of shoes for its soldiers These
shoes have been made in 249 sizes with a range of

figures three new pairs of shoes yearly with each pair
repaired three times before being finally discarded

Last weeks Herald contained an article about M
M Doc Nurse The name should have been M M
Doc Nance Doc wanted the Herald to make this correction
so that people in Tulia would not think he was
changing his name just because he was moving to TahokaChas V Weisenburg brought the following advertisement
in and wanted to put it in the classified
ads of the Herald NOTICE
Will the person who removed
the tires and wheels from my trailer without
my consent please return them as soon as harvest is
over and there will be no questions asked or no charge
for their use during harvest
We refused to place this advertisement in the
classified columns in the Herald since there is little
likelihood of the tires being returned and wc did not
want to ruin the fine record of results the Heralds
classified advertisements have been getting
