Christmas Vacation
In Rawlins Schools
Dec. Goth Jan. 5th

In order that the Rawlins Public
School teachers may have more time
to spend at their homes during the
Christmas holidays, the school board
has decided to extend this years va
cation from December goth to jan
uary 5th.
In previous years the holidays
have been for "A week or ten days,
this however, has caused consider
able inconvenience for many of the
teachers who live in other states
have spent most of their vacation
on the trains. thus giving them very
little time at their homes and in
many cases the teachers have not had
enough time to get to their homes
and back, making it necessary to stay
in Rawlins over the holidays.
A large number of the teachers
in the Rawlins schools this year are
planning on going to their homes.
