June l, 1928 WILMET... TE LIFE YES SIRS What Shall It · When One Speaks of Theil 'Dad~y' -On Fathers' Day ! A certain well-known writer-nationally recognized-has been engaged for some spell .back in "tearing away the veil and removing the pressure" on the personal characteristics and intimate HABITS of George Washington! His conclusions, which appeared in a most ambitious article in a magazine, make just about as interesting reading as we've met up with for a long time. The writer, howtver, in spite of the reverent treatment he accorded his topic, sure stirred up a hornet's nest am.ong a lot of folks who strenuously objected to having such things ·· as the Cherry Tree episode and the "he never used profanity" myth and a few other such oddities torn away from the wide halo they had for generation4i placed over Washington's brow! The BIG joy I got in reading these "revelations" was the realization that after all George was a REGULAR man, with male habits and male "feelings," just like the rest of us. Yet in spite of all these pleasant human flavors in his make-up. he just naturally TOWERED HEAD and SHOULDERS ·over all the rcsr of his generation. Yessir, it's a fine thing to have a daddy that 1s a real man. But what's the use of keeping it all to yourself? Remrmber him on Fathers' Day. June 17th.
