Father's Day is but a' pallid ini-
itatioti of that great oonunercial
orgy knorwn as *other's pay, .1) ult
apparently it is :,with us. to, stay.
EaChlekr father recelyes gifts that
he neithbr 'needs *nor -wants, and

Put 'awaY, he realizesthe family
has put him in hock for the price
of said gifts.

I donl, know what the rest of
you bird want 'for Father's Day,
but 1 know what would please me
most. The miist. thoughtful ,g'ift
the family, could produce -for me
would be if they packed a lunch,
got.in the car, and disappeared for
the' day.
'I find the whole business of
Fathei's Day revolting. The mere
existence of such a day. is an in-
dication. of the new low to which
-the father -has sunk, in the family
unit.. Just a fevr-decades ago,
every day was father's , day, and.
there was. no fooling about it, -•

When I was )a kld, there was
none of this. dam' foolishhess of

In the good old days,. father didn't
-have a dar-Off in the -first place,
and mother wouldn't have let him
help with the dishes, in the second;
because she knew her place, and

Perhaps it's the increase in: his
leisure time •• that has turned the
head of the house into a substitute
baby-sitter, a domestic menial, a
handy, wailing -wall, and in general,
pale reflection ofe.his
iespe-e(ed-ihare-foreflieTifs. '
,* * *
Until a' couple of decades ago,
father worked a six-day, sixty -hour
, week, but he didn't get ulcers. And
do you know why? Because' he
did.* see as much of his family
as' the poor, cripple -gutted creature
.who brings home the bacon today.

half-day .off. Does he potter in
