PLATTSMOUTH Father's Day is Now Nation ally Observed Sunday. Jun3 16th Is the Dato Set Aside to . Hoi: or the Fathers of the Nation. Father's Day is about to happen but the trouble seems to be. to make his family remember that it always comes on the third Sunday in June. This will be next Sunday, June 16th, when the occasion will be observed nationally for the seventh time in honor of the nation's dads. As the calendar stands at present Father's Day like many other obser vance days, has a sliding scale of differing dates, and hops to a new numerical day every year of its cele bration to the embarrasing confusion of many who want to remember it. To make Father's Day easier to re member as well as every other special calendar day, insist on having the new-fangled thirteen months calen dar adopted. By this means Father's Day always will fall exactly on the same numerical day in June as well as on the third Sunday. Thus it will be ten fold easier for dad's family to "prepare" . ahead for dad's elevation to the family throne (for a day, at least) and order the usual regalia from ties to slippers. Under the new thirteen months cal endar, the newspaper dateline will warn them of Father's Day approach, if they don't happen to think of it. Dad himself, will be the last to re mind them of the event, though you can bet the dear old boy has noticed the swagger new window full of "fixinV and signs appertaining to "his day," at his favorite haberdash ery. Yet we rather doubt if dad will view the proposed switch from the present calendar to the more easily i computed modernistic one with i any considerable favor. You can't ! get away from the fact that the thirteen month affair will give him an extra "worry day," in spite of manifest other simplifying advan tages. We are referring to the "first of the month," when the bills come in. I However, meanwhile it looks to even its most ardent advocates that a good many years of "intensive ; education" must elapse before the , new calendar can be legislated into I existence. During the wait fatheer ! probably will become a grandad and a lot of new ways of observing the day will become commonplace, like tuning in on him via television, and so on. But during this interim, as it were. Father's Day will continue to be a moveable date, numerically. If we, his family, only can take the trouble and forethought to keep pace with its changes, and observe each occa sion we will be doing no more than our duty, to show our love and de votion for a member of the family whom we are too apt to neglect and forget. Misses Clara and Isabel Rainey of this city are among the teachers who are taking special summer school work at Peru this year.

FIND A FLOATER From Wednesday's Daily Yesterday Frank Detlef, watchman at the Burlington railroad bridge over the Missouri river, discovered the body of a man floating along on the crest of the flood waters oi the Missouri river and notifying John Richardson and his sons at the ferry, they put out in a skiff and suceeded in bringing the body into the Iowa shore near where the current had uried it. The body had evidently been in the river for some time and from the appearances of the clothing the man hart probably broke tnrougn the ice of the river several months ago as his wearing apparel indicated that he had been drowned in the I extreme . cold weather. He was j dressed with two pair of overalls, a j heavy pair of shoes, two shirts and j two heavy red sweaters. I From the general appearance of I of his wearing apparel it was thought that he might have been working on the ice on the river and fallen through the ice to be bore away un der tiie ice. There was but little means of identification aside from the cloth ing and the body was turned over to the Mills county, Iowa, authorities to have it burled.
