. . CALENDAR REFORM
LeS mting anything that changes old habits or customs,
the civ:?ized world has stubbornly resisted efforts at calendar
reform, though readily admitting that the present calendar
needs modification. But calendar refoim will come as surely
as prosperity will return in due time. ,
Big business is the force working for this universal change,
With 115 large business concerns iaiready keeping their
books by an arbitrary 13-month calendar, universal adoption
of such a system of partitioning the year cannot be fart
away, Since 1927 there has been an increase of 100 per cent
in the number of firms' using' the new system.
" The advantages of the 13-month calendar are obvious,;
Its strongest appeal to business lies in the fact that alj
months would be of equal length, a decided advantage' to
the bookkeeper and auditor. Another benefit would accrue
through a schedule of holidays which would be unchanged
from year to year. :,
Popular support is assured fromi another quarter. No
worker paid by the month will oppose a system which would
give him 13 pay days each year instead of 12. From the em
ployers' standpoint other benefits would counteract the extra
expense of an added pay day. '
: In spite of the public's fears,;the simplified calendar would
doubtless slip easily into common use. The American people
will not long; reject; a system which would simplify such an
important phase '4qj everyday life. , The Gregorian-calendar
has served its purpose, but a calendar that is 349 years old
could hardly be expected to be well suited to modern condi
tions and requirements.
COUNTRY VILLAGES
i 'Abolition of the small country village is advocated, by Dr.
Cv J. Galpin, department of agriculture sociologist, as a
remedy for many farm problems, including the exodus to the
city, burdensome taxation, and low living standards.
' His minimum requirement for a modern farm community
is 1,000 families, which means a population of 5,000. For
communities that cannot attain that size he advocates con
solidation. Only by pooling their resources can rural families
provide at homo the attractions that are taking; their most
alert and ambitious young men and women to the cities.
Farmers must have observed this already, for the majority
of small rural villages arc disappearing, a fact which a
study of census figures will quickly prove.
Thus docs history repeat itself, originally the walled town,
was devised for the protection of the people against their
common enemies. The people worked far afield during the
day, but returned to their walled towns at night. Perhaps
the day is not far off when the farmer will commute between
his acres in the country and his homo in the town, where he
will have all the conveniences, comforts, and amusements
of the city, as well as fire, police, and health protection at
a lower cost than he pays today.
Rural life, however, will never pass entirely out of the
picture. There still aro, and always will be, men and women
who prefer an isolated farmhouse or a quiet village to the
hurried existence of the larger towns and cities.
SQUARE PEGS IN ROUND HOLES
The misfit individual has come to be a perplexing problem
in today's social structure. In former years, when the pace
was not so rapid, and when the pressure of earning a living
was not so great, the misfit got along fairly well. Today,
however, efficiency has become the keynote, and the in
dividual who has not found his sphere is usually left by the
wayside. There are jobs they can do well if they can be
found for them. The problem, then, is one of adjustment
Much work along these lines is being done in the public
schools in a number of states and in many cities. Because
i child fails in one department of school work is not accepted
as final proof that he is a complete failure. In something
else he may succeed notably. Part of every teacher's duty
lies in fitting the work to the child as well as fitting the
child to the work.
More failures in the world can be traced to a pour start
than to absolute incompetency on the part of the individual.
In every walk of life there are thousands of nven and women
who cannot succeed because they are trying to do something
for which they arc not filled. They waste their lives either
because they will not quit, vainly hoping that if they keep
on plodding and plugging they will win, or localise they
know not which way to turn.

When six-year-old Burton went to
visit with his uncle, hiB mother sent
, with him a long list of directions.
: From theac Uncle Bill learned what
' foods Burton would and would not
j eat, Just what clothes he must wear
i at different times of the day, "under
1 what circumstances he was bound to
catch cold and the complicated tech
nic necessary for putting him to bed.
The first evening at his uncle's
house, Burton took one look at the
food which was being served and an
nounced, "I don't like unything
( you've got and I'm not going to eat."
, "That's too bad," said Uncle Bill,
and to the maid, "I guess you can
take his plate away."
Burton waited hopefully for a few
minutes and watched his uncle emp
tying his plate with gusto. Then m
a small voice he said, "Uncle Bill,
I've changed my mind. I think I'd
like some supper."
When it came bedtime, Uncle Bill
said, "You mother tells mo you can't
go to bed at night unless someone
undresses you and tucks you in and
sits in the room until you fall asleep.
But I don't believe you really need
all that fuss. I just bet you can. go
to -sleep like a regular fellow. You
go upstairs now and get undressed.
You can call me when you're ready
and I'll come up . and say 'good
night.' "
That evening after Burton had
cheerfully and for the first time In
his life, gono to bed alone in a dark
room, Uncle Bill permitted himself
the satisfaction of throwing the list
of directions into the fire.
Two weeks later when Burton had
to go homo he said confidentially,
"You know mother, Uncle Bill, she
thinks I'm just a baby. She really
doesn't understand. I wish you would
tell her the right way to treat a boy."

Bv Herbert Pluminer
WASHINGTON Frank Charles
Partridge. Just appointed to the
United States senate by the gover
nor of Vermont to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Senator
Greene, must be a firm believer in
the old adage that "All things come
to those who wait."
The new senator. from Vermont is
a protege of the late Redfield Proc
tor that famous Vermonter who
served as secretary of war in Harrl
Bon'B administration and later as a
United States senator.
It was Proctor who brought Part
ridge to Washington for the first
time to serve as his secretary while
he was a member of Harrison's cabi
net. And it was Proctor who pre
vailed on Harrison to pla.ee his 29-year-old
protege in the state depart
ment as solicitor. ,
"'. Then Proctor resigned his cabinet
post to enter the senate. But he kept
his eye on young Partridge and used
his Influence with the president to
have him appointed minister to j
Venezuela near mo ciuuu ui .xium
son's administration.
STATE LEGISLATOR, TOO
Partridge was serving in this post
when the democratic administration
of Grover Cleveland came in. A re
publican, he found himself out. He
returned to Vermont.
His patron was still in the senate,
but could do nothing -for him poli
tically. When McKlnley became president,
he went as consul-general to Tan
gier, but returned shortly to enter
the Vermont state senate. He served
in this body for two years, from 1898
to 1900.
Business has occupied the greater
part of his time since then. He iden
tified himself with the marble com
pany which tho Proctor family
owned and controlled, and later be
came its president.
Various other business interests
a railroad, a life insurance company
and the Proctor Trust company
claimed his services.
But his interest in public service
never lagged. He found time to re
write tho consular regulations in
1896, served as chairman of a com
mittee to propose amendments to
the Vermont constitution, and was a
member of the state public safety
committee.
NOW TO SENATE
Twice he was called upon by the
federal government to act as umpire
in diplomatic disputes, but due to
tho press of business had to decline.
Ho did find time, h6wever, in 1923,
to serve as one of the United States
delegates to the fifth Pan-American
Conference at Santiago, Chile.
Now at the age of 69 he returns to
Washington to occupy a seat in the
body where his patron sat for so long.
Married and the father of five chil
dren, Senator Partridge is affable,
courteous and distinguished. His
Vermont colleague in the senate Is
six years his Junior the tall, solemn,
white-haired Porter Hlnman Dale.

"As a boy I can never remember
when I wasn't hungry," Mr. Straus
said late in life. "I used to see
bunches of ripe bananas hanging in
tho stores and . long for enough
money to buy just one. I suppose
hunger came to typify all kinds of
suffering to me and I mado up my
mind that as soon as I was able I'd
do all I could to help the other
fellow."
