ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 2nd, l.970 Scripture, Leszon: Luke 15: 11-24; St. John 4: 46-54. From a sermon by Bey. B. E. Long. A boy says to bis father,"I'li be glad when I'm old enough to do wbat 1 want." The father says, "By that time you'll be married and you stili can't." Fathers are important but they are having a hard time these days. The Board of Evangelism and Social Service of our Church re- ports, "The modemn Canadian father is an absentee landiord. Ne is no longer the source of power in the family. Two genera- fions ago, when men worked at home, children were able to watch their fathers on the job, wmhether, they were farmers, writers, preachers, carpenters, iron work- ers, tool makers or store keepers and they could take lilide in their father's work." "Today father is at work and the eilîdren are at home or at school. They cannot watch their father at work, ordin-arily. -let a- Joçne help bim, So ma'ny cblîdren have only the vaguest idea of wbhat their father'does. How can they take pride ini their fathers? How can tbey identify their skills and judgment, their triumphs and defeats?" "The father in early Canada could teach his son the mysteries of some craft, wateh over hlm as he'grew up. Today, in, general, that kind of father exists no long- er. Todav the father gets only a ~4econd hand report of bis son's deed's or misdeeds, or bis son's be- baviour at sehool. bis friendships or bis problems. In general, when the father cornes borne at night and is expected to take over the, came of the children and do things around the bouse, the child is left witb the impre-7siori that faqthî'r bas been more or le-s 1oafing al day and the mother now expeets him to start doing. somà real work." It predîots that "in tho, future much children r'rinçr will be done away from the family -it in day came centres." It stili doeqn't mle out the importance of the parent but wbat about the FATHER'S DAY changed, the fundamental values of huma;n relationships have flot. These stili form theroots of per- s3nality g_ 'owth." I'm flot saying fathers are always right. There is an area in wbieh father has to get going, or h3 will be left bebind in this generation. "It is a 13ig Responsibility," the report frorn the Board of Evangel- ism'and SDcial Service is entitled. It points -ut that, "young people today h' neyer known a time when war did flot threaten an- nihilati-on." There's a significance to this. It makes for the different world for them than what it had been for their fathers. "When they are given the tacts they can un- ýderstand irnmediately that con- tinued pollution of the air, water, and soul will soon make the planet uninbabitable and that it will be~ impossible to feed an indefinitely- expanding 'world population." They can see it quieker than people who have lived with sueh an est- ablished order forso long. They-see différently than many (Continueçl on page 5) generation gap?
