Started Father's Day Credit for originating Fa ther's Day goes to Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, right of Spo kane, Wash. In 1898, inspir ed by love and sacrifice of her own Dad, who reared his six children after the death of their mother, she proposed a special day for honoring fathers. The Min isters Alliance and the YMCA took up her idea, but it wasn't until 1910 that the first Father's Day was observed in Spokane. On the third Sunday of June, that year, a small band of women met in church for songs and verbal tributes to Dad. At that time there was entirely too much disrespect for fathers, Mrs. Dood thought. Typical of that were such popular songs' as "Father, Dear Fa ther, Come Home with Me Now" and "Everybody Works but Father," which, she considered, tended to spotlight the wrong type of father. Press, pulpit and women's groups took up the crusade and the Inter national Father's Day evolved. The Rev. Conrad Bluhm, then pastor of the Centenary church in Spo kane, helped Mrs. Dodd QH5ZSSSHSSSS5ZSZ5Z5H5ZSZSSSHSHS2SSScSZ5uSSZSZ5SSZSZSSScSH5Z5H5ZiJ W. C. T. U.

This is of great interest in Plattsmouth where Chief Henry Donat and the members of the fire department have been handi- , capped and bothered by the fact that m times 01 calls to lues, pri vate cars have been making the habit of rushing to the scene and in many cases handicaping the firemen in getting their ea.uip ment on the scene without in jury to the firemen or to the operators of the private cars. The office of the attorney gen eral has ruled that all traffic must yield the right of way to fire fighting equipment in cases of emergencies. This is a ruling that makes clear the law and charts a cour.se for the firemen and the public in cas'cs of fires. The ruling was the result of a fire chasing motorist forcing a fire truck into a ditch and injur ing the chief, wrecking the ap paratus and keeping the firemen from a fire that resulted m the death of a child. When you see the fire depart ment going to a call, do not chase the equipment to reach the scene I first, but remain put and learn learn about the fire later. If help is needed the firmcmen will make this known to the public. Guests Here at N. W. McKee Home The home of Mr. and Mrs. N. W. McKee was the scene cf a very pleasant family party at the week end.
