POLY HAS ITS
FULL QUOTA NOW
NO MORE PUPILS CAN BE AD-
MlTTED THERE
Night School, DR.. Moore's Pet Project,
Proves to Be Big Successfully
Sessions Are Also Largely
Attended

Five hundred pupils in two weeks is
the report Dr. e. c. Moore has to
bring of his pet project, the evening
high school at Polytechnic.
To the few opponents of the scheme
this is answer sufficient to convince,
no matter how doubtful they might
formerly have been as to the result
Indeed, so successful has the initial
scheme become that the available
funds are already taxed to their ut
most and DR.. Moore had to recommend
at last nights meeting of the board
that no more pupils be admitted during
the present school year.
Scarcely a meeting of the board
passes without some steps being taken
to add to and improve the teaching
staff. At last nights session Miss
Maria Lopez was assigned to teach
Spanish, Miss Katherine b. Ross Of
fered to conduct a class i'm English

ployed to give instruction in free-hand
drawing and Mr.. Louslcy. physical in

teered to conduct a WOmen's $ gymnas-
ium class
Even the janitor takes a part in the
new regime, his being to draw $4 more
a month for each room used by the
evening school
The Polytechnic high school is be-
ing taxed 10 us IulleSI capacity and
in anticipation of the crowds who will
seek admittance when the new school
term opens February II the board de-
cided to open the school at 500 a. m
and close it at 5:15 p. m. The teach
ers will continue to teach six periods
as formerly, and an additional force
will be needed to make up the extra
three periods. This scheme will ma.
terially increase the capacity Of the
school,
The idea of DR.. Moore, who made
the recommendation, is that the stu.
dents can arrange their program witt

HUNDRED CATS
ON SHOW TODAY
chutes Park Will Be Scene of Exh=
bition-The Proceeds to Go
to Cause of Sweet
Charity

The ringing of the gong today will
find every cat in his corner at Chute5
park pavilion, ready to begin the con-
test which is to decide whether he will
lie champion or whether the coveted
belt-or rather ribbon-Will go to his
challenger. Nearly a hundred cats
have been groomed for the fray, but
unfortunately, they will be confined in
separate coops, so no diversion can
be expected. Many more will doubt
less be entered at the last moment,
The glass pavilion, called by the
show promoters a miniature crystal
palace, is expected to be an ideal place
i'm which to hold the exhibition OF
choice felines. Plenty of seats will be
provided for the ladies' where they can
rest after the exhausting trip around
the different coops, and the electric
lights shining on the gay scene of mag
nificent gowns and fluffy tabbies will
form a pretty picture
Cats, green-eyed, blue-eyed, yellow
eyed-or as it is called in a high-b bred
cat. amber-eye and black
eyed will eye each other with a jeal-
ousy that will bode i'll to the cat that
carries off first prize and the silver
cup.
Then the proceeds will be devoted to
sweet charity. The religiously inclined
are already muttering under their
breaths, "verily, charity covereth a
multitude of sins"
The show will begin today and will
continue till Saturday,
