TOMORROW is Father's Day and everyone is supposed
tn wear a dandelion. That flower is the badge of the
cuse that fathers have for still
.was the neck ear makers wno proposeu
things up with the florists who cashed in on mothers day.
That is all right, for every man, even a father, needs a necx-
tie once a year. ; . Cvi-
They used to say a woman couldn't pick out a necktie
for her husband; but that was merely one of the fictions
created by the columnists. A woman can pick out a necktie
because she usually takes the advice of the haberdasher,
than which there can be none better. j -I .
We do not know if the preachers have to preach on
fathers day like they do on mothers' day or not. If they do,
it will tax their ingenuity; just as it cracks an editor's
brain, if he has any, to think up anything appropriate to
the subject. These are parlous times for fathers, whose prin
cipal mental activity is worry. A mother betrays her anxiety
over her babies; but a father hugs his own worries to him
self, churns along, tries to make ends meet, hopes to edu
cate his family and live comfortably in old age. n . '
There isn't much you can do to Father, except leave
him alone. He grunts around like a bear if anyone does any
thing for him; he frowns on sentiment; he knows there is
nothing heroic about himself. Sometimes the hinge in the
pocketbook elbow gets a little weary from frequent reach
ing, but one thing sure it will never quit entirely so long: as
there is anything left to reach for, when it comes to mother
and the kiddies. ;' . , t. ,
Not all fathers are alike to be sure; and where the dan
delion is not appropriate, perhaps the wives had better wear
"fft-Pt-me-nots". thouzh the chances are the dads wouldn t
recognize them. So give, the dads a hand tomorrow a four-
in-hand, we mean. -

a visitor in Salem this week,
' of Europe, said our hard times were better than Eu
rope's good times. This view is confirmed by Sir Robert
Tasker, touring in America, who said in a letter home: .
"This country is amazing-, particularly the city of Chicago.
There are achleremenU here which would stagger the imagina
tion of some of our lUy-at-homea. It England eomld enjoy this
so-caUed depression for 12 months we could reduce our na

The teeth of man appear la
two seta, tb first or temporary
teeth (29 ia number) and the
second or per
manent teeth
(IS in num
ber). As a rule
the eruption of
the teeth Ukes
place earlier la
girls than, lm
boys. .
The first

are all formed
In the Jaws be
fore the child
la born. This Is
zr. o. o. xat also true of the
six year molars. For. this reason
it is yery Important that the
mother's diet throughout ; preg
nancy should be adequate la
those elements that go to -make
np the structure of the teeth. If
lacking- In certain minerals such
as calcium and phosphorus the
probability of the development of
early decay in the child's teeth Is
yery great.: ' r ; I
MOTHER SHOULD HELP '
A nursing;, mother should . be
equally careful about ber diet la
order to furnish her child with
the essentials tor building the
dental structures.
The first teeth begin to erupt
at six months in most children.
Rickets or some- other chronic Ill
ness wUl delay - the cutting: - of
teeth so that they appear at a
later time. Occasionally one finds,
that delay in eruption la a fam
ily characteristic but one should
not consider this . faetor unless
certain that rickets la not present.
From six months to two or two
and one-half years the temporary
teeth continue- erupting until 20
are present.
IMPORTANT TOOTH:
At about the sixth birthday,
the six year molar puts In its ap
pearance; it is a permanent tooth
and needs especial attention, for
if It la lost no tooth will develop to
replace It. It Is an important tooth
for another reason. If property
retained, proper growth of the
jaw takes place and the cutting"
edges of the teeth are In better
alignment. From the age of six
the temporary teeth begin to
loosen and are replaced one by
one by the permanent teeth. ;
No tooth temporary or perman
ent should be neglected, careful
inspection by a dentist several
times a year along: with an ade
quate diet - will assure a mini
mum of dental decay In later
life. -

The home of Lewis C. Griffith
was a notable one in the historic
Waldo hills section. With the
passing of Helen, youngest daugh
ter of the family, only one mem
ber of the circle of ten, father snd
mother and five daughters and
three sons, remain on this side of
the crystal, river.
Lewis Griffith cams with the
immigration of 1850, at the age
of 21, and was the hunter of the
covered wagon train of which he
with his father's family was a
member. In the spring: of 1851
.they took up a donation claim In
the -Waldo hills, overlooking the
site et the future capital city. Su
san . Margaret, daughter of Dr.
John Savage, of the same wagon
train, and who also settled In the
Waldo hills near by, became the
bride of U a Griffith In 1858.
Their pioneer home was one of
the most prominent and hospit
able in the section.

neighbor, editor of the Portland
Journal, wrote for the Wednes
day Issue of that newspaper the
following heartfelt tribute:
"HELEN GRIFFITH GIEST
Pioneer folks and people . hare
heard with profound regret of the
passing of Helen Griffith Giesy,
wife of Alta Giesy, well known
Portland insurance man. Mrs.
Giesy was a member of a prom
inent family of Marlon county pi
oneers. Her father was the Hon.
Lew Griffith, distinguished Mar
Ion county farmer. The family
home was in the well known Wal
do hills, a district that had much
to do with early Oregon and early
Oregon history. It was from such
ancestry that Helen Griffith Gie
sy came, and she was true to the
type. All . the charm of manner
and gentility of nature so , char
acteristic of pioneer women in
Oregon were hers. Her appraisal
of men and women waa based on
heartbeats and good will. She was
the center of a circle of friends
who are plunged deep into sorrow
by her passing. The beauty and
warmth lot her nature sent sun
shine into many a heart and sur
rounded her life with friends and
gladness.! The sweetness of her
spirit must have had an overflow
into her voice, for It was always
remarked of her that her speak
ing tone possessed In perfection
the melody of the singing tone.
Her passing came afore time. A
malady that baffled medical sci
ence carried her away amid the
petitions and prayers of relatives
and - friends and in spits of all
that affection, care and science
could do. After all. why shouldn't
there be . a future . over there?
Must not the going In mid-life of
souls like Helen Griffith Giesy
mean that folks and friends shall
meet again?" ; ,
In the old home la the Waldo
hills, Helen Griffith and A. W.
Giesy stood before Rev. W. O.
Kantner of Salem as they ox
changed the mutual rows that
made them man and wife, nearly
31 years ago.
He officiated at the funeral in
Portland on Wednesday, with a
message that was a benediction;
in. eloquent words whose domin
ant theme was the firm belief in
the promises of holy writ that
sustain the living in the buoyant
hope of a continuance of joyous

Delight Harford took counsel
with herself. She bad, for some
years, been her own best ana

had liked the younger girt. She
had felt for her that curious mix
ture of tolerance, pity and impa

her experience regards a girl of
Mary Lou's typo. She thought her
honest and candid, and mistaken.

Mary Lou had asked Delight to
give her a week in which to

would not approach the Lorri

it wise that she hsve them looked

any promise to Mary Lou which
would preclude such a procedure.

Mr. Evanson obligingly expat

social position, their vast amount

GERVAIS, June 19. What
might have been a disastrous fire
occurred at the Gervais garage
Thursday evening about f o'clock.
When Antoine DeJardln and son
Lester were - passing the garage
they noticed the smell of oil com
ing from the storage roomr and
found that an automobile owned'
by Archie Zellar was on tire.
The car had been run into the
storage room while the owner of
the garage charged a battery and
replaced it. The cable from the
battery 1 had evidently become
worn - and the short-circuiting
therefrom had caused the grease
on the engine and other parts to
become heated and a blase result
ed. The flre-tightlng apparatus
in the garage was used to put out
the fire. It is hard to visualise
what might have happened had
the blaze started about midnight
or later or on Sunday afternoon
when no one is around.
