HON. MAT S. COHEN,
President kentucky State Fair.

TIME Kentucky State Fair belongs
to the people, is of the people
and for the people, but credit for
this great achievement, which during
period Of fourteen years has meant
much to the commonwealth at large
and which now bears vital relation to
the welfare of the state, belongs in
fullest measure to two officials, the
commissioner Of agriculture and the
State Fair secretary.
Upon the shoulders of these Two men
falls the burden Of responsibility for
the gigantic undertaking of summing
up in one festal week the agricultural
and live stock industries, accomplish
mentS and achievements of the entire
state for the year, and both must be
possessor of abilities beyond the ordi-
nary measure Of man.

TO the lay mind the magnitude of
this undertaking is impossible of con-
ceptton, and only those concerned in
the maelstrom of detail, infinitude of
demands and urgency Of action surg
ing around the operative forces of the
Fair can grasp the significance of this
experience. AS no man occupies a dis
tinctive position without training
which has consciously or unconscious
ly fitted him for the duties Of his post,
/ so Mr.. Kremers entire career has been
one of preparation for the brilliant and
efficient handling Of the task before
him. In his early manhood he saw
long service in important positions
with the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road general offices and with the law
and equity division of the Jefferson
circuit court, thereby absorbing a grasp
of detail, knowledge of law and famil-
iarity with finance which grounded him
we'll in knowledge vital to the handling
Of the Fair. In fact, it was this un-
usual all round ability, demonstrated
year after year to the state board of
agriculture, that prompted Mr.. Kre-
meFs election by the board as secre-
tary to the Fair. To the agricultural
element hs selection was eminently
satisfying from the fact that Mr.. Kre-
mer has been practical farmer fog
the past twelve years, owning and at
present residing upon and actively op-
Grating at Shively, Ky, one of the pref
tiest and most prosperous farms in the

CHANGE IN SCHOOL SCHEDULE.
New Hours Arranged for Some of the
Children of the School for Opening
of Semester on Thursday.

A slight change of schedule is an
nounced by the superintendent of
schools to take effect February l, in the
elementary and junior high schools of
the city. This has been decided upon
to make it safe for the school children
at the noon hour. When the schools
are dismissed at II O'Clock, the chill
dren are dispensing at the same time
when men are hurrying to their homes
from the shops. There is a continual
automobile procession passing some
schools, making it dangerous for the
little children. By the change pro-
posed, the children will be safely out
of the way of harm before the noon
whistles blow. The schedule for pupils
is as follows:
Kindergarten-S:45 to II a. m, lis
to 3:15 p. m.
First grade-S:45 to 11:15 a. M,
lis to 3:45 p. m
Grades 2 to 6-S:45 to 11:45 a. M,
lis to $3.50 p. m.
The time schedule for teachers is as
follows: $3.50 to Has a. M, to 3:45
P. m, for first grade teachers, and to
400 p. m. for teachers of other grades.
There may be variations of this SEIZED.
