But on ft. jlunday, June 16, the family's hero" will be as lavishly sed as were those legendary Warriors of long ago. ^ Patience and understanding, idance and compionship, are otes to a father's place in ir hearts, the cards point out. ra_.jese themes are illustrated in %waily colored designs, and elabo- •rated on in good-humored verses ich have a sincere, heart-toart quality. Something like his Any POP can feel bright When his kids are polite, And obedient as can be . . . .! But the POP worth while Is the one who can smile After raising a BRAT like me! € Many of the new designs sug- '•£est how Father's Day might be jhpent. Several show Dad going fiunting or fishing. A few picture him out on the golf course. br at his favorite bowling alley. t)ne shows a father and son playing baseball, over a verse that declares-- J Tm in there P1TCHIN* For the man who oftett i | Goes to BAT for me , ; , A man who's strictly I Big League stuff as any | Good Sport will agree! • In recent years, Father's Day icards have given considerable at- Itention to Dad's domestic chores. .jHe's been represented as the family's financial wizard, baby-sitter rst class, and a guy who would ismantle the entire kitchen sink vjjust to replace a single washer. There have even been greetings Jbhowing Dad as he crawled out iof a dog-house in the backyard. 5|JTary a word, however, on such IJfamlliar scenes this year. Instead, iwhe trend is towards completely •f&nrestrained compliments for, as lone card puts it, "The swellest jPOP in the whole darn POP ula- ^tkmj' The main exception to this gen- |«ral trend is a fairly large numjj^ Br of Father's Day cards that Jfhatore "King for a Day" senti , • • iHents.' One fondly adds that can do no wrong!" But I ttost of these cheerful greetings i .. .Mini v simply promftfe a M-hfiuf ban on all worry and care, with someone catering to Dad's every whim. A typical design shows Dad perched in an easy chair--monarch of all he surveys, but with a pile of ashes from his pipe on the floor. Yet, Mom overlooks the mess, while giving him the Sunday papers and a Father's Day kiss for luck. Its greeting begins: "Tb that wonderful HUSBAND of Mine." Another card pictures Dad snoozing in the backyard hammock, and bears this affectionate verse-- It's your day, DAD, So take it easy! r • Dern it--You've earned It! - Novelty cut-out cards, it seems, are especially popular this year. One is patterned alter an oldfashioned pocket . watch, for "Wishing the BEST of DADS the TIME' of his life on Father's Day!" And a pair of moccasins will remind Dad that "No one else can fill your shoes!" Appropriate designs and verses have also been created for your grandfather, father-in-law, or To the Father of My Sweetheart." As the father of someone dear to you, they'll all rate warmhearted greetings on Sunday, June 15.
