Special to The Herald.

Special TO The Herald.
SANTA MONICA, Sept. 13s-With the
largest enrolment in the history of the
local public schools, the fall term will
begin Monday morning. Under the super
vision of Horace Robek, the newly APP
pointed school superintendent, several
branches of study not heretofore in the
curriculum will be introduced this year.
Forty-five instructors have been APP

ing former terms.
A large sum of money has been ex-
pended in overhauling the plumbing ar
rangements in the>different schoolhouses.

safeguard the health of the pupils.
At the high school more than 200
scholars will receive instruction, a num-
Der far in advance of the initial scholar
ship of any previous year at the school.
Hours for instruction at the high school
this year will be from 9 to Has o'clock
and from / to $3.50 in the afternoon. AS a
means of increasing the school appropria
ton the city council is considering max
ing a school tax levy of 10 cents on

ing of the Greater Long Beach Improve

of United States engineers, today sug'
gested plan for the drainage of north
west Long Beach, which will mean the
successful reclamation of a large area
of fertile land.
The association has had the PROPOSE

past, but recently a plan proposed was
turned down by the county supervisors
upon objections offered by the city of
Wilmington and Captain Fries.
Captain Fries was then called into con-
sultation with the local promoters and
suggested a series of dams through the
drainage waterway to reduce the flow
of water from nine feet to four feet per
second. or the widening of the ditch
The latter plan was rejected because
of the valuable land that would be re-
quired to widen the stream, and En-

A LamentabIe Episode

''Ah, how little, do our friends at home
realize the privations endured by the mis-
sionary in heather lands! plaintively re-
marked the Rev. DIR. Piggewash, in the course
of his illustrated lecture on the Experiences
of an Evangelist in Pagan Isles.
lone of the most deplorable experiences
I ever encountered occurred soon after we
landed on the Bamalam islands. We came
upon band of natives all in their hideous
war paint and repulsive nakedness. They IN
stantly attacked us with terrible feroclty and
blood-curdlng yells, which soon resulted IN
the slaughter of six of our native servants.
At length, one OF the servants, particularly
useful young man, was captured by the saw
ages, who proceeded to put him to torture
before our very eyes, and when sought to
take what advantage 1 might of the awful
spectacle 1 found to my dismay that spear
had passed through my camera, causing me
to forever lose the opportunity of securing
what would have been one of the most unique
and interesting series Of snapshots ever taken
and which I feel safe in saying would
have enabled me to book my lecture at a
figure fully so per cent higher than 1 am now
getting, We beat the savages off at last
with the loss of only three or four more
servants, but I sail always feel that those
ruthless pagans cheated me out Of a great
deal of money. Puck
