Probably the biggest piece of
poppycock on our calendar is
the Sunday in June designated
as Father's Day.
It is almost as silly as cele-
brating the birthday of Queen
Victoria (on the nearest 11°Ion-
day, or adopting that pretty,
but uninspiring thing, the
maple leaf, as our flag symbol.
That's because, like queens'
birthdays and flags. fathers are
anachronisms, things that be-
long to the dear, dead past of
empires and gallantry and fam-
ily solidarity.
The empire has disappeared,
the flag has become something
to quibble about and fathers
have turned into cartoon char-
acters.
We have become increasingly
a mother - dominated society.
But in trying to prove that Mom
doesn't have clay feet, we have
casually accepted the theory
that father has a dough head.
The word "father" is never
used any more, as a term of
address. The only place it
crops up is in sociological and
psychological terms, such as
"father image" or "father
figure".
It's been a wild swing of the
pendulum, and it is a sad and
bitter thing, this degeneration
from Father to Daddy, but I
can't help pointing out that we

MAIN STREET-- ZURICH
95 YEARS YOUNG—Mrs. Phoebe Weber, a resident
of Zurich all her life until a few months ago, when she became
a resident of the Queensway Nursing Home, Hensall, quietly
celebrated her 95th birthday on Wednesday. For most of
her life, Mrs. Weber was a seamstress, and her favorite hobby
was gardening. She was always a faithful member of St.
Peter's Lutheran Church, Zurich, and up until a year ago
used to walk the dozen or more blocks to the church every
Sunday. She has three children living, Morris, Zurich; Mrs.
Hugh Thiel, RR 2, Zurich, and Mrs. Gertrude Datars,
Goderich.
have brought it upon ourselves,
chaps.
The Trojans opened the gates
and dragged in that big, wood -
end horse. The Arab let the
camel stick his nose into the
tent, to keep warm. Father
achieved the same end by re-
linquishing the purse -strings to
that brave, little woman with a
heart of gold and will of iron
—Mom.
Next, he began to listen to a
lot of thrid -rate tripe, mostly in
the form of articles in women's
magazines. Thus, he fell prey
to such clap -trap as "family to-
getherness”, and "being a pal”
to his children, and "talking
things out” with his wife.
Then, under the bullying of
his wife and the relentless heck-
ling of his children, he forsook
principles of possessions, and
happily hopped aboard the
treadmill of proving that he
could bring home as much
bacon as the poor, harassed,
coronary -bound character next
door.
Slaving like a pit poney, and
attacked for it by his family,
he was still expected to help
with the dishes, mow the law,
entertain at parties arranged by
his wife, and drive 300 miles on
the week -end to visit relatives.
This, the comfortable paunch
which was a measure of Father's
success became Dad's pot -belly,
a sign that he wasn't doing, his
5BX. Thus, Father's ominous
look and cuff on the ear became
Daddy's whine that he would
cut off the allowance. Thus
New Building
For Giri Guides
Voluntary labor from Huron
county is constructing a 24 ft.
by 30 ft, building, at Glen Mac
Scout Camp, near Seaforth.
The new building will supply
camping facilities for 18 Brown-
ies at onne time, during their
Pack Holiday House Week, sup-
ply shelter for Girl Guides dur-
ing wet weather, and will be
used as storage facilities for
Girl Guide camping equipment,
when not in use.
With the addition of this new
building being made available
to the girls of Huron, camping
has taken a great step forward.
Father's majestic carving of the
family roast became Dad's inept
spooning out of the meatballs
smothered in canned mushroom
soup.
Not a pretty picture? Right.
What are you going to do about
it, Jack? Will you join me in
trying to convert dithering. Dad-
dy into fearless Father?
Shall we grow beards, get rid
of the blubber, pound the kids
oncce a week, and tell the old
lady we're going fishing when
we dannwell feel like it?
What's that? You agree, and
you'll join the movement on
Monday, but right now you have
to help Mom do the shopping?
All right, Don't say you weren't
asked.
St. Peter's CL
Discuss Project
The June meeting of the
Catholic Women's League of St.
Peter's Church, St. Joseph, with
prayers by the president, Mrs.
Lawrence Regier, Roll was
called and minutes of the previ-
ous meeting read and approved.
The treasurer's report was
given by Mrs. George Bedard,
Mrs, Hector Forcier read a
letter from Mother Rosella,
principal of St, Mary's School,
thanking the league for their
financial help in sponsoring the
scholarships for the highest
grade eight students, the gifts
for the other children and the
communion breakfast for the
graduates.
Much discussion took place
on a way in which to raise
money for league purposes, but
due to the absence of Monsignor
Bourdeau and the financial con-
venor, this had to be set aside
for a future meeting.
The mission gift was won by
Mrs. Hector Forcier. The meet-
ing was voted adjourned and
closed with prayers.

Shur -Gain Pasture Dairy Ration
Despite the fact dairy cattle were fed well all winter they could
loose weight if fed only lush, green pasture. Pastures are high
in protein but Iow in carbohydrates and energy.
Shur -Gain Pasture Dairy Ration is high in carbohydrates and
thus provides the energy lacking in lush green pastures. Main-
