Members of the school not en-
rolled in the trade department, will
be given an opportunity to spend five
periods a week learning the printing

suits of the elections are as follows:

BOOK CAMPAIGN PROGRESSING.

The campaign to raise $500, New
Britain's allotment, toward the fund
to raise one million dollars, for g
million books for the soldiers at the
front, is progressing In a pleasing
manner. Reports from all solicitors
have not as yet been received, many
being out of town. But those that
have entered their reports show that
subscriptions are being taken in at
a good rate. Plans are being made to
send more books out in the latter part
of the week. Up to date the solicit
tors have approached only a list of
prominent citizens. A. general can
vass of the public will be taken in
short time and it is safe to say that
when reports have been compiled af-
ter this canvass New Britain's quota
will not be below the desired amount.
