THANKS TO DAD (Father's Day is June 19th )

           People in the United States have been honoring fathers with a June holiday for about 100 years.  But Father's Day didn't become an official U.S. holiday until 1972, only 39 years ago!  Other countries around the world also celebrate fatherhood with a special day. 
           What will you do to honor your dad, grandfather, uncle or another special man in your family?
            This week, the newspaper offers some reminders of why we're thankful for our dads.
             We also give you a few ideas about how to show your thanks.
