FATHER AND SUN ID. BE DRAWN CLOSER TOGETHER IN BANQUET

The custom of holding father ana son banquets has become so popular that under the leadership of the inter- national committee of the Young Mems Christian Association, father and son banquets will be held in practically every city where there is an associa- tion, and in many where there is none.
 Fathers are coming to realize every year the necessity for maintaining a comradeship with their sons The father is, or should be, the boys hero He usually is until the boy reaches adolescence. Then, too often, because the father was too busy with other things to make a ? pal of the boy, the boy withdraws into thick shell of retcence so far as his father is con cerned. and when he wants informa- tion regarding his sex life, or whether he ought to oijn the church or not, or whether he should stay in school, he goes to the Boys Work secretary or his pastor or some one else in whom he had confidence. Of course. the fore going draw salaries for answering just such questions but any father ought to have a feeling of regret and shame that his boy turns to outsiders for the things he should receive from his father.
 MT. Average Father, where did your son get his information regarding the change that comes into his life at the age of F or 15? Did he get his infor- nation from you, or his misinforma- tion from the boy on the corner? II you don't feel capable of giving this instruction yourself, do you know of eve none book you could purchase for him?
 Well, father and son banquets are for the purpose of bringing fathers and their sons closer together. How would you like to be this father? A 16-year- old boy sat in my office this week and made this statement: 'T have never seen man who can do so many different things as my father can. don't believe there is a man in the 1 United States that has any more brains
 than my father Does your lad thinl | that much of you?

TO BECOME EXECUTIVE
 HEAD OF RED CROSS

w WASHINGTON, Feb. 2-Dr. Living ston Farrand of the University of Col orado has been appointed chairman ol the central committee of the American Red Cross by President Wilson al Paris. It was said at Red Cross head quarters here today that Dr. Farrand would assume the position of execu- tive head of the organization on Marcl, 1, and that at the same time the Reo Cross war council would cease to exist.
 The war council was created by President Wilson, May 10, 1917, to ad- minister the greatly increased Wori, of the relief organization. necessitated by the war. It largely displaced in authority the permanent executive or ganiZation. Henry P. Davison, chair man of the war council, is now in Paris with the president, in connection with work at the peace conference, and his presence thre probably will b required for many weeks.
 Dr. Farrand is in Washington famil- iarizing himself with the details of the Red Cross organization. When he takes office the Red Cross virtually will return to a peace basis.

YEOMEN PLAN DANCE
 AND OYSTER SUPPER

A dance and oyster supper will be given by the Brotherhood of American Yeomen, in the K. of P. hall, February 13. At a meeting of the birthday com mittee of the brotherhood a short time ago, at the home of Mrs. H. L. Worden, the problem of what to have in the line of an entertainment was solved. A three piece orchestra will be engaged to furnish music for the dance. and the oyster supper will be held in the ban quet room of the hall
 Each lodge member will be allowed to issue an invitation card to one or two friends. These cards will be taken up by the doorkeeper the night of the dance. It is thought probable that a meeting of the lodge will be necessary
 for a short time before beginning the entertainment.
