Russell, boys' work secretary of the Y. M. C. A. in Providence. Russell thought It would be an ex cellent plan to get the fathers and their boys together for the purpose of getting better acquainted, and little did he dream that this email lianquet would spread until It was world wide In scope. In the next two or three years many similar banquets were held, but only one in each city, usually put on by the Young Men's Christian as sociation for their own hoys and their fnthers. The first nation-wide observance of father and son week was held in ISIS hut it was minor affair compared to the 1924 observance which is being held not only all over North Amer ica but in every civilized country in the world.

Beveridge of Omaha iH a mem ber at large of this committee. The' movement in Omaha had its inception in 1911, when a banquet was held In the boys' division of the Omaha Y. M. C. A., attended by 225 fathers and sons. In 1916, J. H.
