In addition to that information, the
teacher if possible, will look below
the surface and ascertain the pupils
habits, ambitions, social condition,
sentiments and any other personal
knowledge which can be secured
Means Much Work.
The Introduction of such a plan in
wolves an enormous amount of work,
Mr.. Pickell says. However, after the
first year, it is less difficult to tabu-
late the pupils and guide them through
their educational and vocational
courses.
Teachers must be trained to the
work before the plan can be tried as
its success or failure depends largely
on the teacher in charge of each
group. The plan will be outlined to
the teachers when the opening Of the
September term approaches.
The object of the plan will be the
school, Or those who are taking work
which is neither suited to their in.
stincts nor their chosen life's work
Prepares for Life.
While in many cases so the high
school principal explained, the pupil
will not have his life's work definitely
outlined in his mind when he enters
high school, the class of work for
which he is best suited will be ascer
tanned before he leaves the school by
a process of elimination Of the things
for which he obviously Is not fitted
This rule will be applicable whether
the pupil has or has not chosen his
life's work and in case he has chosen
wrong he will be corrected.
The limit of the work will not be
the completion of the high school
course, but as far as possible the
teacher will continue to keep in touch
and advise after graduation.
The principal believes he has chosen
fitting time in which to introduce
the teachers advisory plan IN connec
ton with the vocational courses which
the state board Of education will pro
vide during the next few years. Both
plans will mean a doubling of the
work of school board, principal and
teacher

The efforts ot the Triple Entente TO
bring about common action with Germany
were set at naught by the negative
attitude adopted at Berlin. Russia, in
view Of the failure OF these efforts, de-
cided on "A partial mobilization OF her
troops on the Austro- Hungarian frontier,
at the same time notifying Germany OF
this action and assuring the Kaiser that
the mobilization was in no way directed
against Germany. In an interview be-
tween the Russian Amba ssador at Berlin
and the Imperial Chancellor the latter.
according to NJ Nivianl. accepted this
declaration OF the Cars Government.
"On July a." continued the Premier.

cations between Germany and the rect OF

by Germany. showing that France had
known Of them from day 10 day and
that the French Government was not

such havoc with France In 1870.
The Premier said that while Germany
was making protestatlons of peaceful inten-
tions her entire army WAS being mobilzed.
and when ths'was accomplished Germany
served notice on Russia to stop the mobili-
zation in spite OF the fact that the Car

appeal to the Kaiser TO bring an end to

Then came the Invasion of French terri
tory by the Germans and thc violation OF
the neutrality of LuNemberg, which was
guaranteed by Prussia In formal terms
by the treaty of 1867. The invasion OF
Belgium on the pretence that it's territory
was menaced by France followed.
