WOULD CUT SCHOOL HOLIDAY
Berlin Newspaper Objects to Time
Lost by Pupils in Celebrating
Victories.

Berlin.-Vorwaer publishes the
text of regulation issued by the Hes
sian ministry of public instruction or
dering school holiday for the chill
uren as a reward for their services
during the period when subscriptions
for the fourth war loan were being
collected.
The Socialist journal does not like
the idea, and writes:
"As a rule, even the announcement
of victory should not be celebrated
by the suspension of school work on
the following day. When a victory Of
importance is announced during the
school hours it's significance may inn
mediately be explained to the children,
who then may be dismissed for the
rest of the day. That should be enough
for the cultivation Of patriotic senti-
ments in an educationally unobJec-
tionable way. Only very great and de-
cisive events would justify a whole
holiday.

and see how much OF it you have
fallen for. And then ask yourself why
YOU should graft on the company any
more than on any special member OF
it. You would hardly take stamps out
of the boss pocketbook. In case ne

the difference, except in appearance?
Better cut 1t out. girls, Most offices
are pretty free and easy about grating
of that sort. and it is matter for your
own choice But the habit Is bad
one: it lacks dignity. and it isn't fair
It's on a par with cheating the car

YOUR nickel for value received. Being
