and joint meetings of the two will be held at intervals during the year.
 The programs will consist of decla- nations, essays, debates, plays, ex- temporaneous talks, etc. As this work has been neglected in our high school, it is the intention of those in charge to incorporate it with the English work and to require it of all students. The first meeting will be joint one of the two societies at which q short play will be given.

School Notes

The work for the second month moves off with much more pep and interest than the first month. More visits from parents are reported this week than for the entire month of September It is to be hoped that more parents will avail themselves of the opportunity to visit classes in the schools and acquaint themselves with the methods used by the teach CTS and courses of study followed by the pupils.
 Miss Stevens of the Domestic Science and Art Department has ar ranged for recording home work done by her high school classes and plan to visit each pupils home as time per. mits and aid in securing the best pos sible results in such home work.
 The manual training work while very tedious to the boys just at pres ent is progressing nicely and the boys will soon be ready to make some of their favorite projects.
 Penmanship, under the supervis- ion of MT. George, is receiving much attention and the children are master ing the first principles readily. By Exhibition Day they will have some fine specimens for display.
 Nature Study and Landscape work are occupying the attention of the Art Classes at present. Water colors have been introduced into the sec ond grades for the first time this year.
 I Miss Sara and Janet Bain enter tained the women teachers, the wives of the professors and the mar ried ex-teachers at the high school on Monday evening. At this time the girls organized and planned to meet regularly every two weeks. Miss Alleen Await and Miss Margaret Jones will be hostesses at the next meeting, Oct. 25th. The Liberty Bell" awarded for scholarship and department is quite in evidence this week.

 The enrolment in the high school bas reached a mark of ninety-two. It is believed that the hundred mark will soon be passed as it is not too late for students to enter. However such students should enter as soon as they can as it will be more and more difficult for them to make up 1 the work missed.
 The work in the high school dur ing the first month was not what it should be as evidenced by the low marks and large percentage of fail ures Some students, who were ab- sent, did not make up the work miss ed and many did not enter until late. Every absence lowers ones final mark from three to five points and in cases of examinations missed it may be even more. One or two students have not provided themselves with books although their books have been ready for them for some time. No person doing regular work can get all his or her lessons during school hours and each student

Expert Guides-

Expert Guldes-
 To anyone in need of the services of expert guides on hunting trips we would refer them to Frank Laverty and Barney Bradberry. They are absent in the hills at present being employed as guides to M. s. Harrison who is enjoying a few weeks hunting in the Black River country. It is understood that the party left the Double Circle ranch one day this week with the Black River as their objective point. They started early ir the morning and after travelling all day decided to pitch camp at night for fresh start the next morning. Upon arising in the cool of the morning and taking notice of their surroundings they found that they were camped within three miles of the place from which they had started the day before. At last re- ports the boys had gotten their bearings and were headed in the right direction with good prospects of reaching their ultimate destina- ticn.

BRITISH PUT BAN ON
MEDICAL SUPPLIES
Forbid Admission of Hospital Stores
Into Any of the Enemy
Countries.
U. s. WILL ENTER A PROTEST

WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.-Great
Britain has suspended the issuance of
permits for shipment of hospital sup
plies Of any description from the
United States to Germany, Austria
Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey. This
became known tonight. and at the
same time II was learned that the
State department at the instance Of
the American Red Cross had made
representations to the London for
eign office seeking withdrawal or
modification Of the new order.
Until recently the British government
and its allies exempted from the block
ade order-in-councn practically all hos
pitaI supplies except rubber goods such
as gloves, worn by surgeons and nurses
blankets, tubing, etc. Efforts to secure
admission of the rubber articles were un-
successful, the British authorities explain
ing that to permit them to go into enemy
territory would release a corresponding
amount of rubber for the manufacture OF
auto tires and other military necessi-
ties.
Now the prohibition has been extended
to all supplies and large consignments,
gathered at New York by the Rad Cross
for shipment to the central powers are
being held in storage. This situation
viii be considered at the meeting of the
executive committee OF the Red Cross
In New York tomorrow as the entire pro
gram for the society for relief work In
Europe will be affected IL Great Britain
refuses to change It's attitude.
The United States has called the atten-
ton OF the foreign office to an agree
ment between the belligerents soon after
the beginning of the war upon a compre-
hensive list OF medical stores, which were
to be allowed to pass freely into all coun-
tries. Officials here think permission
for the movement of articles named on
this list, at least, will be obtained.
