WIDER USE OF SCHOOL HOUSES

The District has made rapid steps
in the last few years in the wider
use of school buildings and grounds.
. The figures regarding present COM
I munity use of schools, contained in
. the annual report of E. L. Thurston,
Superintendent of Schools, will sur
prise most people.
This report shows that eighty
three mothers clubs and other
. parent-teachers' bodies are meeting
in schools. Sixteen citizens associa-
. tons are using them, and fifty-eight
+ other civic and community associa-
lions have permits to meet in them.
To these items should be added
the opening of twenty-one schools in
the evening for night schools. While
this might be termed regular school
work, the night schools include
many adults and reach a different
group than the day schools. Within
a few months the school Fairgrounds
have been thrown open for use of
the municipal playground depart
ment.
The only wonder about all this is
that more citizens associations do
not utilize the school houses for
meeting places. Unfortunately some
of the older buildings have no rooms
available and no lighting; but there
are many new structures scattered
about the city which could be so
used. These would benefit by the as
ISOLATION with the citizens bodies,
and the organizations should find in
school houses better places for gath
ering than rented halls.

precious as human material. The
western allies are bringing up inn
mense numbers Of new guns, bigger
than have ever been used before, and
corresponding supplies Of ammuni-
ton. With these they propose to
keep the enemy as uncomfortable
as possible" all winter. II they can
definitely establish and maintain a
great superiority in artillery as well
as in the air service, they will be
able to utilize the winter months
even more effectively than the sum-
mer; for the enemy has double need
for his trench protection in winter:
for projection against attack, and
against the weather. The side with
the artillery and the knowledge Of
where to shoot with 1t, has every
thing its own way in cold weather.
That the Germans realize the i'm
portance Of this new phase in winter
fighting is suggested by their an,
nouncement recently that 10000
more men had been put at work in
the Krupp works az Essen. They
were largely withdrawn from the
fighting lines, because it was recog-
nized that their services are more
needed in the factory than at the
front,

THE INcoNsIDERATE VILLA

II there was any one thing that
the Washington Administration
didn't want to happen within the
next fortnight, it was the particular
thing that has taken place in Mex
leo. Francisco Villa, come back to
life and characteristic activity,
seems utterly reckless of the politi-
cal fate that may overtake his
quondam friend at Shadow Lawn.
Instead of acquiescing in the ar
rangement for q suspension of ac-
tivities in Mexico until after cleo
ton, he has broken loose in a new
direction, destroyed an important
force of Carranzistas between Santa
Ysabel and Palomas and now threat
ems attack on Chihuahua City.
Villa might in decency have stayed
dead, some of the numerous times
when he was so reported. He has
had every reasonable inducement to
efface himself; opportunities to get
killed have been fairly pressed upon
him; yet he has maliciously persist
ed in keeping alive. 1t is a bit un-
certain whether he has one leg or
two. How he possesses himself of
guns and cartridges is one of the
mysteries. But there he is, as ami
mated a bandit as ever scuttled a
Presidential prospect.
Some agent of the New Freedom
ought to go down there and explain
to this rude person how he is mess
ing affairs. He is making it utterly
impossible for President Wilson to
answer questions about what he
would do in certain contingencies, be-
cause the contingency might be
brought to pass. There is simply no
knowing or guessing where Villa
will break out next. Apparently he
enjoys the freedom of northern
Mexico pretty generally, coming and
going as he sees fit; finding the
murder business good, getting
plenty of sport, and now and then
going in for a little real warfare,
just as testimony that his strategy
is still on'straight.
A few things seem pretty we'll es-
tablished about Mexico. Carranza
is weakening, and Villas power to
make trouble is growing. The Car
rama effort to make a constitution
that will establish him as a constitu-
tional autocrat is beginning to be
understood. There is muttering of
protest, and every reason to antici-
pate that matters will continue get
ting no better until the change
comes in Washington and an Admin
isration is installed here that will
enforce a real policy in Mexico.
The Washington times., 1916-10-23
MAKING THE OTHER FELLOW
UNCOMFORTABLE"

The coming winter campaign is
liable to develop aspects that will
show to what an extent the war is
now in a phase that had not been
reached in the first two winters of
it's continuance. A few words in a
Paris dispatch suggest food for re-
Election in this line. II is said that
the allies have established decided
superiority in the air; and all re-
ports for a considerable time have
indicated this. Importance of this
superiority cannot be overestimated
The dominating side can learn the
enemy's movements while concealing
it's own. 1t knows where to direct
artillery fire, when to undertake
large movements and where.
Lately the Germans have heavily
shelled areas that were not even oc.
cupied. it is explained. This is q
fearful mistake, when it is consid.
cred that big shells are almost al
