be devoted to recitation work and one
to assembly, library or building duties,
according to the plans made by the
Board of Education last night at its
special meeting.
1t has become necessary to increase
the duties of the teachers, because of
larger attendance Of high school pu-
pills. Financial conditions have pre-.
vented the board hiring extra teachers
and the present teaching corps will ear
ry on the work, providing the increased
attendance does not mount above pres
ent expectations.
1t was also the general sentiment of
the board that although teaching duties
will be increased the maximum number
of pupils under each teacher will be
decreased. Formerly as many as sixty
pupils were assembled in one class but
forty pupils will be the maximum this
year, wherever possible. In outlying
districts, where the physical conditions
increase the numbers in one place, it

night In cooperation with Supern-

Knows Nothing Of 1t.


London, Sept. 15.-News this after.
noon that naval engagement was
progressing in the Baltic was taken here
as meaning that the German squadron
there had rounded up and attacked the
Russian fleet.
According to latest accounts from
Stockholm, Admiral Prince Henry was
in command of the kaiser's Baltic naval
force.
1t was believed he was stalking every.
thing on dash into the Gulf of Fin.
land, in the hope of destroying Russia s
coast defenses and opening the way for
an invasion of Russia by that route.
The only word OF the fight received
here, however, was from German
sources. The British admiralty had not
heard anything of it at first hand
When last heard from here the German
squadron in that locality reinforced
presumably by ships brought from the
North Sea by way of the Kiel canal
was cruising off the entrance to the
Gulf of Bothnia.

Grays" and defied the State troops to
enter the city and slaughter his people, -
on the eve of election when strike was
in progress.
All of the playing of cards of Georgia
Fleecer and Cordelia Blossom were
directed toward the social leadership of
the town and the dethroning of Mrs.
Pckyune, president of the Isis club.
From the first there was much of the
"cattle" element of woman's politics
in evidence in this battle. Mrs. Picn.
yune artfully suggested that Col. Bios
som lead his Blossoms Grays on his
white horse to restore peace in the city.
The Colonel fell a victim to the picture
she painted of him on his charger, and
went, but the appearance of State troops
saved the day and the Colonel won the
Labor vote and the election by the de-
fense of ''his people.
The Isis club election in the final act
is bitterly fought as Mrs. Pickyune
suddenly springs a trump card by an
nOuncing that her niece is to marry a
Lord Something or Other, and the wo-
men cannot decide whether they can
afford to cast her overheard. Cordelia
finally triumphs, however, and as she
stands with Georgia Fleecer looking out
upon the night the long wall of eat is
the final word.

BREAKING into" BUSINESS
Persons Who HaNs the Qualifications
Do Not Have to "Break Ir9o"
Hiah Positions.

Golfers Weekly: One hears a great
deal about successful people breaking
into" a certain town or line Of BUSH
ness. Wise articles are written on the
difficulties attending the process, and
it Is given the aspect Of an achieve
ment Of individual hero3sm: something
as if a modern Adams de Gaul had
stormed a city single handed. Yet,
when we look at the facts Of business
life, one Of the most pressing problems
is that Of finding and keeping people
who can be promoted; one OF the Sc
verest tests of an executive is whether
he has anyone At to succeed him. And
the reason is az clear as the fact. The
only hope of permanent success for
even the most gigantic Of u modern
corporations is to get into their ranks
the leaders Of tomorrow, those who can
think most rapidly and see most clear
ly. The hunt for talent never ceases
where is the person who can and will
put aside all distractions and study
these problems through to a solution?
Who will do this work, make this
thing go? The modern world will pay
almost any price for those who will
do the working successfully. All our
tremendous apparatus Of companies,
machinery, ETC., makes the need for
people but the more imperative
they are drawn in by a current as strong
as Niagara. The breaking in" really
consists in their forcing their abilities
into fuller being, into dominance over
their own carelessness and inertia.
The self-absorption of commercial life
makes it seem terribly aloof and i'm
p~enetrable, but it is still true that a
man diligent in his business shall STAN
:efnre kings--.n fact. a long way be-
f )re them.
