BULGARS and
GREEKS BEGIN
fierce BATTLE
FORMER ALLIES NOW AT WAR
As Result of Division Of the
SpOils

Berlin, July 1.-The Greek foreign
minister informed the correspondent
of the Frankfort Gazette at Athens,
that Greece intended to begin war
against Bulgaria today without any
formal declaration.
The foreign minister made the fol-
lowing statement
: After Bulgaria has answered an
the conciliatory steps of Greece by
repeated breeches of treaty and by
crossing the provisional boundary
fixed short time ago. the Greek
government feels forced to give the
Macedonian divisions of it's army the
order to assume the offensive.
War will in this way commence
without formal declaration, and the
Greek government will submit a
statement in this sense to the BuIga-
ran government at Sofia today.
"Grece declines to accept the re-
|sponsibility for this war which un-
questionably will have grave conse-
|quences."

SCHOOL REPORT FOR OCTOBER
Shows Increase i'll Attend
 ance Nearly Reaching the
 5000 Mark Which Will Be
 Passed This Month, Ac- cording to Superintedent

The advent of some 2O4 new stu dents into the rolls of the city schools during the past month, ending Nov cmber ', had it not been for the leaving of over 100 would have raised the mark of enrolment to over the 3GOO number. As it is, there were en- relied in the city schools on that date just nineteen less than the 5000 mark for which the schools have been aiming all this year. That this mark will be passed this month is the confident expectation of Prof. John D. Loper, . city superintendent, and it will never again go below that high water mark is his aim.
 The report for the second month report is most flattering. There are few absences, tardieS. and the per cent of attendance as well as the en- rollment showed a marked change to the good in nearly all instances over the reports of the month previous. In the Central school, with fourteen teachers. and with fifteen days taught there was a total of 1S9 absences, "A tardies. an enrolment of 5S0. bring ing in a percent of attendance of ninety eight New pupils in this school numbered twenty-tWo.
