 RESUME STUDY
Board Of Education Meet ing Yesterday Forms Plan
 To Continue Term Despite
 Epidemic Of Influenza

With the high shool closed because of the epidemic of Spanish influenza, students are to resume their classes by correspondence. The board of education of the Phoe- nix Union High school announces that, in view of the fact that the influenza situation in the city is now more serl- ous than at any time before and that it will. therefore, be scme time before schools can be opened for regular work, and believing that it would be unfair to hold students over for another years work, a plan of correspondence work outlined by Acting Principal Jantzen and adopted by the board at a regular session on November 8, will be put into operation on Monday. November II.
 Up to the Student
 It is evident that under such an ar engagement the student will get out of the work what he puts into it. More over, the student who objects tc such an arrangement may continue his vaca- tion, while the student who does the work faithfully under such arrange ment will find that he will get more out of it than he ever got out of class work. for he may have to dig for what he gets, instead of absorbing it from what others have gotten. The plan is as follows:
 All students wishing the work must register on a postal card mailed to the high school office, using this form: Name: Address Telephone ! Subjects: Class: Teacher:
 Continuation of Work Under subjects the student will indi- cate the studies he wishes to take; under class he will indicate whether | he is freshman, sophomore, junior or senior; under teacher he will indicate with whom he took the work in school during the last week before vacation.
 Be it understood that this is a con- l tinuation of the work for which stu dents were registered on October 4, the last day before the order came to close schools
 Furthermore, regular class work later will be a continuation of work done by correspondence. When the schools are open again, students doing satisfactory correspondence work will be placed in advanced classes. and stu dents failing to do correspondence work will be placed in retarded classes.
 Must Be Prompt Students are, moreover, reminded that promptness, regularity, neatness and accuracy in preparation and de- livery of correspondence work will count for much, since the above re- quirements are essential to all suc- cessful undertakings in life, and teach CTS cannot be expected to give much time to careless and indifferent work CTS.
 Now. students, take notice, so you need not ask many questions. Send in your registration postal card at once. Your teachers will then make out daily lessons in weekly assignments. These assignments will be brought to your home, and your written work will be called for at your home once a week.
 You must have your work ready when called for or it cannot be ac- cepted. Do not worry as to what your assignments will be. It is the teach CTS worry to make out assignments that you can do at home, and you will all be able to do the work if you make up your mind that you can.
 Get Books at School
 After you send in your registration. wait patiently to receive your assign ment or hear from your teacher. You Will want your books from your lockers in the school buildings Call singly for them on Monday or Tuesday of next l week. We shall allow no grouping on the grounds or in the buildings.
 This will afford students an oppor- tunity to find out what they will and what they can do. So take the oppor tunlty and make much of it,
 The course includes everything Of tered on the daily schedule of the high school There may be chances in the commercial department for some who wanted work in the night school Those desiring such work should make writ ten application at once.
