Co-Operation as to Studies.

Cooperation of those who wish to at
tend the schools. in selecting what sub
jects shall be taught. is asked by Supt.
Thurston. Mr.. Thurston said he was
very desirious of having those subjects
taught which would be i'll the greatest
demand. Through the cooperation of
those who plan to attend this can be
done most effectively and economically.
he pointed out. Each registrant will be
asked. therefore, to give, in writing,
the subjects which he or she wishes
to study.
Although definite information will not
, be available until after registration.
officials of the schools are of the opin-
ion that the greatest demands for in
struction will be in typewriting, short

CADET ENROLLMENTS LARGER.
Central High School to Have Ten
Companies This Year.

Central High School is to have ten
companies of high school cadets this
year in place of the seven which were
formed there last year.
This is taken by officials of the pub
lie schools to be indicative of the deep
interest Washington's high school boys
are taking in military affairs Reports
as to cadet henrollments are not yet
complete. but it is expected that when
they are completed all former records
will be broken.
Last year witnessed the formation of
an unusually large number of COM

make two regiments. This year is eX-
pected to exceed this record.

Helpful in High Schools.

Advance information as to studies de
sired will be particularly helpful in
mapping out plans for the high school
work. In the high schools the courses
are more elastic than those of the
grade schools.
A record breaking enrolment is ex-
pected in the night schools this year
as large numbers of boys and girls have
left school. their courses unfinished in
order to go to work. 1t is believed
by those in charge that large pro-

partment.

was preceded by a mission of railroad
experts, whose arrival already has
been announced.
After a final conference between
President Wilson and Mr.. Root, the
commissioners travelled overland to
the Pacific coast and there boarded a
fast naval vessel. Under the volun-
tary censorship, at the request Of the
government, nearly all American
newspapers refrained from publish
ing anything about their departures
or the points through which they
passed along the way.
While no German submarines are
known to be operating in the Pacific,
it was deemed wise to print no details
Of the trip until they were landed safe

trograd Is awaited anxiously, because
1t is believed confidently here that
the assurance it brings from the

much toward steadying and strength

government.

were not able to hold them in their
entirety in the face of violent counter
attacks.
Striking heavily south of the Sou

again Sunday morning the British
made good gains in terrain and also
took numerous prisoners. Later the
Germans stiffened their line and coun-
ter-attacked with considerable forces,
which held the British, who were un-
able to maintain their progress. AS
result of the fighting nearly hun
dred prisoners remained in the hands
of Field Marshal Haig's men.
Lost Ground Rcgaincd.
Southeast of Arras the Germans
near Cherisy went on the offensive
and pushed back the British front,
however, as was the case with the
Germans in the Souchez sector, re-
aligned their men and, striking hard,
regained their lost ground in its en-
