RURAL SCHOOLS Will
TRY WINTER VACATION
Kentucky Schools Begin Fall
Session August A to Permit
Trial Of New System

WINCHESTER, KY, Aug. To-
A new plan whereby stuGents in
county schools are to be given
mid-winter vacation, with CORE
spondingly shorter sumner vaca-
tions, is to be inaugurated IN Clark
county schools this winter.
Prof. Paris Akin, superintendent
of county schools, in announcing
this departure from the usual period
of instruction, declares that in his
opinion it will materially increase
attendance and insure the country
student a good education.
"The greatest trouble in rural dis
tricts is that in winter, when snow
and ice are upon the ground, The
student often finds it impossible to
get to school," Prof. Akin said.
"Under the new plan, schools will
be closed during the worst winter
months"
Another feature pointed out was
that the teachers, who ordinarily
spend their vacations attending sum-
mer schools, may now take advan-
tage Of the mid-winter vacation and
attend normal school then.
The Clark county schools under
the new plan opened August and
will continue in session five months,
closing December 10. On March IT..
another school term viii start and
will run until June 5.

WORLD BROTHERHOOD
ONLY TO BRING PEACE
Father and Son Committee Head
Says 20 Nations Observe 'Fa-
Their and Son Week

GENEVA, Switzerland, Aug. 49,.
The Father and Son Movement,
developed in America where it has
become a recognized institution, is
spreading over the whole world. This
was indicated today in a speech by
Walter w. Head of Omaha, chair
man Of the National Father and
Son Committee of the United
States and also president of the
American Bankers Association, be-
fore the Worlds Committee of the
Y. M. C. A More than 20 ma
tons" he said, "observe Father
and Son Week. In the United
States alone upward Of 5000, 900
of fathers and sons joined in events
during the past year."
The Father and Son Movement
originated at a Y. M. G. A. banquet
of fathers and sons at Providence,
R. l., in 1907, Mr.. Head stated He
said 1ufIhef:
"Only as the fundamental prin-
ciples of world brotherhood are re-
cognized and accepted by the peo--
pie of the world, can We ever hope
for world peace. The men who are
to direct the destiny of the nations
of the world during the next gen
Grafton are now the young lads who
are in our homes today. What
greater privilege has a man than to
give of himself as companion,
teacher, advisor, and as an insplra-
ton to his son, who tomorrow steps
into responsibilities the significance
of which we cannot conceive.
every man, whether or not ne
bears the physical relation Of faith
err and son should give serious con
sideration to his own life, the ideals
for which he stands, that his ex-
ample will always prove to be an
inspiration to the boy life of today
in encouraging the spirit of world
brotherhood.
an the United States We believe
i it most appropriate to observe Ma
tional Father and Son Week at that
period of the year when Armistice
Dav comes. This has proven to be
an opportune time not only to pay
honor and respect to the millions OF
fathers and sons who gave Their
lives for the ideal of world brother
hood. but a time for the fathers
and sons who survive to reconse-
crate themselves to life for that
same great objective, world broth
ferhood, world peace. We are
therefore, planning for the obser-
vance this year to come during the
week of November 9-16."
The Worlds committee of the !.
M C. is planning to cooperate in
making the Father and Son Move
ment universal. Details are to be
worked out by the Boys Work Dl'
vision staff of which E. M. Robin
