weeks in the summer. but his children
must have country life to make them
strong and happy. so he lives for six
weeks in a deserted house, getting his
own breakfast and picking up a dinner
wherever he can. If you praised him
for his self sacrifice he would be en-
barrassed. He would say he is only do
ing what the other fathers Of his group
do.
And he would tell the truth.
Do you know what day tomorrow is?
What Real Father Does.
A day when we remind ourselves of
certain facts sometimes forgotten, that
all children have two parents; that
though the nature OF their service is
less intimate and personal. fathers
sometimes sacrifice just as greatly for
their children as mothers. that a fine,
selflcss, friendly fatherhood, with all 1t
implies Of lifetime Of responsibility
and selfdenial, is just as beautiful a
thing-though infinitely less sentiment
talized over-as motherhood.
Tomorrow, in other words, Is Fathers
Day. when we are supposed to wear a
red rose for Dad. IL he Is alive; white
rose If he has passed the great divide.

young companionship. and If necessary.
in material things, for what he did for
you.

"As Germans we must bring Aus

How much shall we gain by attack
