NOVEL PROGRAM
BE PRESENTED
Latin Department at the High School
Will Present an Entertainment of an
Unusual Nature Friday Night at
High School auditorium

Friday evening, April Z, an enter
tainment of an unusual nature will be
presented at the high school auditor
ium. The proceeds of the evening will
be given to the Y. w. c. A. club of the
high school but the entertainment is
giyen entirely by the Latin depart
ment. 1t is hoped that this announce
ment will not frighten any who are in
search of amusement, as a good share
of the program will be in English and
the Latin numbers will be explained
so that everyone can follow them.
Fishermen will be interested in a
Demonstration of a way in which fish
can be successfully baited by the use
of Latin A very realistic ghost of
Julius Caesar will appear during the
eve1 and some very attractive
Vestal Virgins will be seen engaged
in worship and in their care of the
fires which were kept ever burning in
the temple of Vesta.
Among other amusing features of the
entertainment will be a representation
of a Roman school, in which julius
Caesar, Cicero the notorious Catiline,
and Pompey will be identified among
the pupils, but it must not be con-
sidered as faithful portrayal of their
school days The teacher has not yet
arrived when the curtain rises, but
the boys are waiting for him, playing
games, and quarreling in very mod.
efn fashion After the first recitation
has started, Catiline arrives, late. The
lesson is Interrupted long enough to
inf1ict upon him the punishment he de-
serves and from which no amount OF
begging saves him. Pompey is soon
called to recite- but, perhaps displaying
some of the same shrewdness which |
him in later life, he pre-
tends to be unable to recite until prop |
erly coaxed This coaxing appeals to |
the others so strongly that one OF |
them, Marcus Brutus, is moved to try |
the same plan-with what success the
audience may decide. Mother Goose

a torpedo battle in the North sea are
evidences of their supreme efforts.
Bernn emphasizes the fact that the
Zeppelin raids mean the beginning of
more active warfare against Eng
3pd.

of the German assaults in the Verdun
region, the Allies grand attacks will
probably begin. South of Douamont
the Germans were repulsed and were
driven back to their second lines by
charges of smothered sheets of nit
railleuse fire. The next heavy attacks
are expected northwest of Verdun.
French Claim Successes
Today's communique claimed furth-
er French gains south of Douamont
and Cailette wood A squadron of
French aeroplanes shelled the rail-
way stations at Mantillos and Dam
