Father to Get Day
If Women Can Help

Day, and Mrs Charles G. Temple, president of
the City Federation of Women's Clubs, spoke
Sunday on special program given over
KGA by the City Federation. Sunday afternoon
an entertainment and dinner given for the
inmates of the Spangle infirmary. Mrs. Temple
in her radio talk euogized father, saying in part
The Spokane Federation of Women's organi-
cations, which represents more than 5000 earn
est women, have today in many ways helped to
place Fathers Day" a loftier pedestal, and
bring city, our state and our nation that
name which should hold higher place of honor
higher recognition among all people, that of
father. Father, who is an embodiment of God
the Father who creates, loves protects and
guides his own.
Fathers Day originated in Spokane in
1910. Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, one of our be-
loved and distinguished women, conceived the
idea through her great love for her father.
She presented petition to the Ministerial AS
ISOLATION and Y. NJ c. A. and then organized
Fathers Day Association to help further the
movement The day may not yet be nation
ally observed but it has place on the calendar
in many states and the Bird Sunday in June, will
soon be looked forward to as the one Sunday
of the So when Father holds the place of
honor in nation and throughout the entire
world.
He is the head of the "house" Custom
founded common sense has made him so, but
in the progress of time mans "house' has be-
come complicated and costly and father has be-
come and more occupied in maintaining
its tradition and dignity, but the average father
succeeds pretty well in discharging his duty to
society. He labors along persistently and
quietly for days week. that his family may be
provided for He stands between his family
and the world shouldering the responsibility of
the rent, the taxes, the grocery and coal bills.
He admonishes the children and advises with
mother seeking always to make their burden
lighter. He works increasingly without COM
plant, fighting, schemng, suffering, to the one
end that his family may be assured comfort and
independence. In this he sometimes fails but
he keeps trying cheerfully plugging along,
10 the end.
The sacrifices that must be made, he make
willingly, and how often years and years come
and go before father is rightfully understood
and appreciated.
Thousands upon thousands of Dads may
not be rich as the world goes-not rich in money
rich in power, but rich in tibet knowledge of
the truth, that he has made the best of his chance
to be man and has struggled to enlarge and
ennoble the circle of life in which he lives"

strokes, and it is bad enough in
them.
A light flexible wrist and forearm
movement is needed, where the play
er holds the club in vice-like grip.
Relative to that thumb position,
may say that some good players
find it beneficial to place the fore
finger of the right hand straight
down the shaft of the club.
The purpose Ia identical with my
placing OF the thumb. to afford a
finer and more sensitive touch.
But these little practices are in
dividual. The main things to bear
in mind are that the two hands are
to be made to work as nearly as
unit as possible, and that the grip
must be light.
So long as these two basic funda.
mentals are observed, the player
is at liberty to work any pet tricks
that appeal to him to help him
gain the necessary touch in swing
ing the club.

DATE OPEN

ANNAPOLIS, Jan. 18.-There is
still a chance that the Army-Navy
football game will take place in 1928.
Although the football world believes
that the annual fixture between the
service elevens is officially off the
program, Comdr. Jonas Ingram,
director OF athletics at the Naval
Academy. has announced he is saw
ing the date Of November "a for the
Cadets.
Although there has been no
resumption of the peace confer
ence" between the Superin-
tendents OF the two schools and
there seems little likelihood of
their being, the Navy football Of
ficiais feel that the Army will
once more consider the matter
before definitely canceling the
game.
The Navy has an option on Frank
lin Field, in Philadelphia, for Satur-
day, November "a. If the Army fails
to accede TO the Nays demands on
eligibility, game with strong team
will be schedule for Philadelphia.
Nothing definite in the way of pro-
viding a substitute for the Army has
been done as yet and nothing will
be started until the Army game is
definitely Cancelled.

to be hard to beat may help after
all.
/ have always said that 1t was
easier to beat man who was
feared than one OF whom nothing
was known. You can usually tell
fairly well what your opponent
will do If he is player OF repu-
tation. He is unlikely to become
inspired.
The big fellows don't 20 crazy
as often as the unknowns- They
don't go on the first tee with the
alto. Observation-Disclosures idea.
But when all Is considered.
IL Is my idea that the pro IN
a much tougher nut to crack
at match play than the amateur,
even more 20 than the pro him
self is at medal.
The amateurs. who do we'll in
open CHAMPIONSHIPS appear to play
no better than they normally do ~
match play. but the pros are not
so good as in the other game. II
is merely matter Of temperament
again. You may have to be .
miracle worker to beat Hagen or
Armour in 36-hole match. but you
only have to play evenly, and
steadily to win a 72-hole medal
competition from anyone.
1T is a pity that we cannot have
more amateur.pro matches. am
sure the amateurs would learn
something about their own game.
Certainly we came out on the short
end of the last match Of the kind
which I can recall. The amateur
team finished fourth in a three
day match among four teams, the
other three being composed Of Eng
fish. Scottish. and home-bred pros
respectively.
We came out badly but our cap

of the home-breds, and Gil Nichols
of the English teams. and neither
Evans nor Ouimet played. With
our full strength believe we could
make an interesting show of IL.

OF course, the difference must be
discounted somewhat because the
amateur championship until this
past year has been played over the
most difficult courses in the coun-
try, whereas, the pros have had
slightly easier picking. But the
difference is there anyway. In
any professional field there are at
least ten men whose average round
will be close to seventy, while in
the amateur there are only three
or four.

greater number of fine players to
be beaten, that the p. G.. A. would
