NAVAL SCHOOL
 ADDS AVIATION

From recent advices received in Fairbanks it is learned that the naval training school at Seattle has former fairbanks girls, Misses Elsie classes to its curriculum and will teach those who are desirous of becoming proficient in the handling of either machine upon their en- listment.
 All reports show that since the addition of the above two classes there has been a material increase in the number of enlistments at the Seattle school, many enlistments be. ing made daily. The action of the war board in making this addition to the school Is meeting with the approval of those desiring to enter these branches, as 1t saves much time and delay to the applicant for enlistment, owing to the distance they would have to go before being taken into service.
