Vacation Rates Cannot Be Extended for
Their Convenience.
Students of Kansas colleges will this
year have their Christmas vacation ma
terially shortened unless they decide to
pay regular railroad fare of three cents
per mile.
On account of the refusal of a Kansas
railroad to extend the holiday rate limit
to a date convenient to the reopening of
the schools, which has been the rule for
several years past and was agreed upen
this year by all other lines, the limit will
expire January 2. the date authorized for
the general public. As January falls
on Thursday. and as the colleges will
not reopen until the following Monday,
it will mean loss of four days to the
students which could be agreeably spent
at their homes.
