1t will he noticed that our average
attendance for the month of Decem-
Der was low. Just 149 less than the
daily attendance for the preceding
month, and 103 less than for the same
month last year. The attendance was
normal up to about December 10, at
which time it suddenly dropped until
nearly half of our pupils were out OF
| school. From reading the papers ]
have observed that this epidemic of in
ffuenza is widespread, $4,000 children
being out at one time in the Chicago
schools.
During the Christmas holidays all
the rooms in each school building were
thoroughly fumigated, the floors
scrubbed with strong disinfectant and
everything done to guarantee, so far
as Is within our power, the healthful
and wholesome condition Of the
schools. We have been very fortunate
thus far this year in avoiding all in
fictitious diseases until this tidal wave
OF grip struck us. The majority OF
the pupils are back in school today,
and l trust We will not have any re-
currence of this disease. The latter
part Of January the regular mid
winter examinations will be given,
consequently we would like the CO.
operation of the parents in seeing that
home study is regularly maintained.
Every student in High School should
DO some study at home. since none
Of them have sufficient time to prepare
all of their lessons in school

WAR SUMMARY

The Teutonic allies in the Wallach- ian province are continuing their ad- vance against the Rumanians.
 Semi-official advices from Berlin are that General von Falkenhayn's army up to November 21 had taken 1000 square kilometers of wheat soil in Wallachia and had shut off the communication of all the Rumanian troops west Of CraiOva.
 Berlin records the reinforcement of the Russians on the eastern Transyl- vanian theatre. In the Alt region Bucharest reports that the Rumani- ans are holding their positions.
 Except in Macedonia, little fighting of moment is taking place. North of MonasIir the Germans and Bulgari- ans have received reinforcements and are stubbornly resisting the Entente allied troops DobromiT and Paralo- vo have fallen into the hands of the French and Serbians, according to Paris. while west of Lake Presba the Italians have pushed their lines for- ward. Berlin asserts that to the east of Lake Ochrida the Italians have been forced 70 retreat.

KILLSuTTLE SISTER
 BY ACCIDENTAL SHOT
Flora, the 2-Year-Old Daugh- ter of James Sassoe of Tombstone, But Formerly of Here, Is Killed.

TOMBSTONE, Nov. 23.-A sad af- fair occurred here Tuesday morning which resulted in the death of Flora, the little two-year-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. James Sassoe, from bullet wound shot out of 32 rife while at play.
 According to the mother. who told the story between sobs, she had left the children, Flora, two years old, and Jimmie. four years old, to play in the kitchen while she stepped outdoors to do the family washing. She had not been outside more than a minute be fore she heard a crash that sounded like a window being broken. "l guess they have broken window, she sald to her daughter, Lucy, who was help ing her, and went back into the house to investigate. When she arrived the little girl was lying on the boor. ana the little boy had in his hands the rife which had been left loaded behind the door by an older brother, who had returned from hunting.
 Dr. Hughart answered hurry call and found the little tot in an uncon- scious condition. with the blood flow ing freely, and she was Immediately taken to the Bunker Hill hospital where Drs Randolph and Hughart performed an operation, removing the ball. which was from .22 short bullet.
 The bullet had. entered the forehead just above the right eye, and pursued a straight course to the back of the head, passing through the brain. The skull was cracked the entire length, and but little hope was entertained for recovery.
 The child fingered until shortly be fore four o'clock, when it passed away and was removed to the family home on upper Fremont street.
 The parents are frantic over the oc- entrance. and the little boy, Jimmie, is unable to realize, or account for what he did.
 The occurrence is a sad one, and came as a shock to the parents.
 The funeral occurred this afternoon. The parents have a number of friends in Bisbee, where they formerly lived.

LEADER OF PROHIBITION FORCES IN ARIZONA
 MAKES STATEMENT
Says That Parties Shipping in Supply of Liquors Prior to Enactment of Amendment Will Not Be Bothered.
tBy Review Leased Wire)

TUCSON. Nov. 23.-Persons who are in possession of intoxicating liquor at the time Governor Hunt proclaims the new prohibition amendment will not be molested This announcement was made yesterday by T. K. Marshall president of the state temperance federation.
 Mir. Marshall's announcement fol lowed a series of rumors, which gained wide circulation, that the prohibition advocates in Tucson were planning to make raids on the hotels and res taurants of the city which have had a large amount of wine stored since the state went dry, as well as upon all of the homes of the city where it was suspected that a bottle of personal use' might be found.
 "I will use all the force at my com mand to prevent any person who gets liquor before the amendment becomes law from being bothered" said MT. Marshall. "I think to interfere With any man who gets liquor before the amendment is in force would be plainly against the law"
 Mir. Marshall said the report that the prohibition forces planned to raid the express office and seize the ship ments there also was without founda- ton. We would have no right to take anything that comes in before the law prohibits it, and we do not plan anything sensational anyway"
 NIT. Marshall added that he had told several people. who came to him for information, that they would be safe in ordering liquor for their personal use
