High School Note.

there were seven students to
enter. This year there are SO
on the roll in the main school
and II in the branch school at
Haxtun. When this building
was erected there were 80 stu
dents in the High School and
every one thought that the
building would serve the pur-
pose for years to come.
From time to time desks were
added in the assembly room un
til practically all the room was
taken up. But last fall when
schoo. opened there were not
enough desks to accom- m odate
the students who entered.
Eighteen new desks were in
stalled as soon as they could be
obtained. In order to make
room for these new desks all the
desks in the assembly room had
to be taken up and reset. leav-
ing very crowded condition.
The aisles are now just 90 inch
es wide. With the book case,
piano, magazine rack, diction-
ary and teachers desk, the room
is well filed up.
The enrolment thi. year is
about 10 larger than last year
and if we have another natural
increase of 10 next year what
will we do with them?
The dope" would indicate
that the enrolment will in
crease more than 10 since only
a small class graduate, seven in
all whereas the next senior class
will have 20 members and con

classes will have from 20 to 3i

that il is not adequate for the

that the Science equipment and

too small and the ceiling is too

LONDON. Aug l0-Frcdcrick b.
Maurice, chief director OF military opcr
atons at the war office in his weekly
talk TO the Associated Press today gave
an interesting resume OF the detailed
reports which he had received on the
Air fighting situation in the 4Flanders
battle OF July 81 and the amazing SUI
periori,y which the British airplanes
had displayed on that day owing to their
determined onslaught on Germany's air
fighters during the preceding fortnight
Conditions Almost Impossible.
"On the day OF the attack, says Gen
eral Maurice, "thc weather conditions
were as nearly impossible as could be
imagined-low clouds OF great density.
haze and mist The observation was al.
most nil and as a result the artillery
was under a severe handicap, having to
work without adequate airplane obScr
vaton.
But the alrplaneS were enormously
busy IN other departments. More than
one hundred engagements were fought

enemy on terra firma, our planes in
these cases descending often to within
less than fifty feet OF the ground and
sweeping the hapleSS enemy with their
machine guns or bombing them The
enemy airplanes were well nigh helpless
TO interfere.
German Staff Car Attacked.
During the afternoon one of our
airmen cruising aloit several miles be-
hind the German lines. spied German
staff car containing four staff officers
speeding along a country road He
swooped down and chased the car five
miles, the excited passengers while
urging the chauffeur TO find shelter
stood up in the car, drew their revol-
vcrs and fired wildly into the wings of
the big bird which was circling over

The British pilot finally got the car
into the right position in front of his

hail OF bullets, killing two OF the Of

gether, when they expected to tread the
close.
Then again she began thinking Of
Ravengar. the mysterious man who
seemed to come SO opportunely into
her life. In many ways he reminded
her OF Jerry. She knew that II it
had not been for the memory of her
dead lover. she could have cared for
Ravengnr. But when she turned to
Jerry's letters Ravengar faded into II
phantom.
No, 1t was Jerry who possessed her
heart, and soul, and memory. and must
until life ended. But she thought ten
derly of the other, too. He had saved
her life when the lighthouse was
struck. and that established bond be-
tween them. II she could keep that
bond one of friendship only!
And she began living over again
those awful hours in Pilot Light, and
the scene rose up vividly before her
again.
The flash which had shaken the
structure from Its base and buried the
lighthouse keeper and his wife deep In
the ruins had passed them by owing to
an extraordinary chance. While Le-
Ontine and Ravengar were seated In
their room the lamps began to go out.
Ravengar went down into the cellar
to get more oil.
Reaching up for can. he had mad
vertently knocked down another can.
and this brought down a third and
a fourth. They fell into his arms. and
he was ceught like man In the story
with au armful Of eggs. He could
neither replace them nor set them
down.
Laughingly. he shouted up to Leon
Qne to come and assist him. She
heard him, and went down to his aid,
took the cans from him md placed
them upon the shelf. AS they turned to
go up the stairs the lighthouse was
struck.
AS they crouched under the shock
Ravengar shielding Leontine with his
arms, n huge piece of masonry came
down, blocking the exit. The whole
lighthouse vas going to pieces. Then
followed a final rending, and they
were thrown to their knees and pinned
under the wooden snoring.

The mOckery upon his face daunted
her. If he We're dead he would die tri-
umphant, his will would have con-
quered.
"Stop!" she cried; and the men low
cred their revolvers.
They stepped back, growing; their
mistress whims We're inexplicable to
them.
Ravengar bent down and kissed BIZ
anca's hand. II knew that YOU were
too kind to kill helpless prisoner"
There was still the mockery in his
tone, and Blanca could bear 1t no long
er. She burst into helpless tears,
while her followers looked Mt her
IN amazement, and then at each other
significantly.
She turned upon them. "Get out
the pair of you'll" she cried.
Meanwhile LeOntine drenched by
the flood. waited upon the river bank
for the coming of the man who had
saved her.
The minutes passed into hours. Still
she crouched there. At last however.
little hope began to dawn in her. If
Ravengar had been in the tunnel he
would have been swept out by the
flood.
He was alive, unless he had been
murdered in Bianca's house. She must
find out and help him without a mo-
ment's delay. With renewed strength
she gathered her draggled skirts about
her and ran up the river bank.
