Father To Be King For-ADay Sunday, June 15 Father's Day is just around the corner. So dust off that easy chair. Stand by to hoist anchor and go fishing. Cater to his every whim, and no back talk for at least 24 hours, come Sunday, June 15. Hercules and Archilles were country bumpkins, indeed, com pared to the modern Dad. But good Ol' Dad has received some pretty hard knocks in days gone by. In the stone age. fa thers were frequently challenged to mortal combat by their grown up sons. If victorious, Junior became captain of the cave. Dad's authority reached rock bottom in India. There, if he fell in debt. Mom could sell him into slavery to pay off cred itors. And in African Sudan, even today, a wife may return to her parents after bearing five children, leaving you-know-who to look after the kiddies. Here in America, Father's Day provides the perfect answer to such goings-on. It's the Ameri can wfcy of paying tribute to fathers everywhere, and has been since Father's Day was first celebrated back in 1910. Viit a Plattsmouth mer chant to find the ideal gift for father next Sunday.
