with the state department over the social status Of his sister and desis = mated hostess. Mrs. Edward Everett Gam. this naive suggestion was found more than once.
 The idea always struck the broadly developed sense of humor of the vice president. but his only response was a chuckle and an occasional ref1ec- ton that marriage was one of those things that was easier said than done.
 - Why don't you get married?"
 Now that it is all over and he has won for his sister equal recognition with himself at official dinners, which was denied her by the ruling of former Secretary Kellogg, the us- ually quiet Charles Curtis is realiz- ing that his first declaration as vice president created real stir.
 Just looking over his increasing stack of mail was enough to con vince him that he had said and done tracing attention. Intent at right ing what he considered slight to his sister. he had not counted on a pub lie storm and now he is amazed al the widespread interest. The vast majority of his correspondents sup ported him.
 Friends of the veteran Kansan have insisted all along that he was &ctuated only by loyalty 10 the fam fly and to office in his public fight for social precedence for his sis ter, and he confirms that view in private conversation. But he is now wondering if the publicity will ever end.

UNFA|RNESS 0FLAW
 RESULTS IN CHANCE
Holmes Can Make Exception
 When Pupils Want to Work

A state law which provides that all pupils under the age of l6 years of age must attend school for ] 5o days previous to the application for working certificate will not hold in cases of special exception, it was learned today following a confer ence between Supt. Stanley II. Holmes and the state commissioner of education.
 Supt. Holmes saw the injustice Of the law when II is enforced and with the permission Of the school board he made an appointment with the education commissioner with view Of having if changed. He argues that under the lasv a pupil who might have been absent for a few sessions annually would be forced to stay in school and even enter high school against the parents wishes. This would be the result of the law if enforced literally.
 When the New Britain school superintendent brought the facts be- tore the state official the latter de cided to make special exception in any deserving cases.
 A change in the law would require an act of the state legislature and this cannot be done this year II was indicated today that the law might be changed next year.

 Every game except one Is out of town. This arrangement Is for ti- nancial reasons; because there is no enclosure, there is always d financial loss at the home games. Practice games may be played in New Brit ain, but any home games which de- mands a guaranty from us mean a loss, whereas We can usually obtain guaranty of our expenses. at least, for the out Of town games

Gates Pre.census Parleys
for Exact Count

Judge "A. q. Burr resigned the pres
dency of the Kiwanis club. to which
1c vas elected q week ago, at today's
aoon luncheon. At the time of cleo.
ion he had protested that he was too
busy an official to give the necessary
time to the position. He repeated his
protest today. and the resignation
then was accepted. Otto Bowman
was unanimously elected and will take
office at the beginning OF the year.
in succession to Worth Lumry, the
retiring president.
The club heard a talk on the COM
Ing census from former Governor j.
M. Devine, state immigration
commissioner. The talk launched q
proposal for promoting an exact
umcration in the state. owing to the
fact that retention Of one congress-
man is involved and any oversight OF
residents might reduce the count to
a point below the 683 600 required to
hold a representation Of three in the
national house.
DR.. Devine suggested that some
service organization IN each county.
preferably the chamber OF commerce.
should in late February Or early
March call together a conference of
one or two representative men from
every town to plan means for assur-
ing a full and fair count. The re-
suit would be to speed up the count
and assure It's completion in the 20
days allotted between April I and
April 80, he reasoned. The enumer-
alton blanks contain 70 questions and
those going into agricultural data
contain PAL.
North Dakota will have to show an
increase over the 1925 count-partly
estirnated-of Al, 8O8. The supposed
population in 1926 was Gal .l9c.
President Lumry announced the
organization of a Kiwanis club at
Cooperstown. It will have its charter
night January 3. and some Of the 10
cal club members may 60 up to par
