SCHOOLS TO SAVE
TIME IN HOLIDAYS
Board Decides That Period
Shall Extend From 2Oth to
3Oth of December.

Decision to close the public schools
of the District Friday, December 20,
at noon, for the Christmas holidays.
and to reopen them again Monday,
December 80. was made by the board
of education at its meeting at the
Franklin School yesterday.
The schools will be open December
81, but will close for New Year day,
the pupils returning to school Thurs
day, January .. 1919. In this manner
a day and a half of actual school work
will be saved toward making up the
time lost during the influenza epi-
demic In former years the schools
have closed the Monday before Christ
mas to reopen the day after New
Year, making the entire period closed
seven days, as against five and half
this year.
Consider Saturday Sessions.
So impressed are the school authori-
| ties with the fact that the time lost
| by the closing of the school during
the epidemic must be made up, that
| the opening of the schools. both grade
and high, on some Saturdays during
tho year, either half or whole school
days, Is being seriously considered.
The question will. be taken up by the
superintendent at a meeting of school
officers the latter part Of this week
or the first of next week. 1t is felt
by the superintendent that some such
radical departure as the school on
Saturday movement is necessary to
| bring the studies in all grades up to
their proper level.
Supt. Thurston said today he could
see no reason why the District schools
should not be opened ON some Satur-
days In Philadelphia and several
other large cities the public schools
are making up the lost time in this
manner.

SUBSTITUTION THAT
BRINGS BENEFITS.

n N accordance with direc-
tions from the national
food administration and
its associate workers in this
state, the people Of Illinois are
urged still further TO curtail
their consumption of meats
and wheat products. From
some sources, when announce
ments of this nature appear,
there arise a dismal wall ap-
parently born of the fear that
deprivation of a part of ones
accustomed diet will certainly
result in semi-starvation.
Those who entertain fears of
this sort are neither resource
full nor we'll informed on mat
ters of diet. The American
people in general consume far
too much meat and refined
wheat products. Their diet is
and in consequence
they suffer serious physical
ills. They have become crea-
lures of habit and so they eat
of certain familiar
foods.
Substitution, not hardship, is
of Americans in the
present time of need in Eu-
rope and they are bound to
benefit greatly if they make
the substitutions with a fair
degree of intelligence.
By little well directed
study in dietetics Americans in
this land of unparalleled fruit
fulness may learn to laugh at
of food admins
traitors, meantime growing in
health and physical and men,
tai efficiency. A diet Of sa-
worry substitutes for the meat
and wheat that Europe needs
so sorely is something to be de-
sired because of its. own abb

IA RESIDENT WILSON'S ad-
10 dress on the subject of
peace negotiations with
Austria is Immediately inter
esting because of the effect it
will have in strengthening un-
rest on the part of the people
in the central powers, notably
Austria.
There are many reports to
the effect that the war aims
declaration by President Will
son, given several weeks ago,
did much to widen the gulf
between Germans and Austri-
ans and their war mad rulers.
The Presidents statement yes
terday will accentuate this sit
uation and may have a far
reaching effect.
Longing for peace after
three years of bloodshed and
starvation and having nothing
to gain themselves by further
fighting at the kaiser's bid
ding the Austrians now have
something to reckon by. They
will see that freedom and jus
tice are the aims of America
whose power is to determine
the fortunes of war. With this
fact before them it is easy to
surTnize that they will have
little heart for further warfare.
Though it may be some time
in developing the prospect of
a separate peace with Austria
seems hopeful. If it comes
such a peace will offset the
loss to the allied cause from
the detection by Russia. If a
separate peace with Austria is
impossible because of the Ger
man-Austrian alliance the
same end may perhaps be at
tanned in the form of peace
pressure from the dual mon
archy on Berlin.
