NOBLE 6OO H|GH SCHOOL STUDENTS
 STUDYING BY MAIL

The enrolment for the continuation of the work of the Phoenix high school by mail is large, Acting Principal Jant- zen reports. Approximately 600 stu dents have declared themselves ready to follow the plan.
 This large enrolment has made much work for the teachers, and for that req son all of the students may not have received their first assignments. Those are urged not to worry, as their as- signments probably will come to hand on Monday.
 The heavy rains have delayed the de- livery of the assignments, as remote parts of the city have been hard to reach. Also there probably may be some incorrect addresses. Those who do not receive their assignments by the middle of the week are requested to notify the principal and their ad- dress will be corrected.
 The assignments already sent out were intended to be from Wednesday until Wednesday of the following week, but instead they read from Monday, November IS. to Monday, November g, for that reason no further assignments will be sent out until November 25.
 The first collections will be made on November 25. If students have received incorrect assignments the first time they are urged to make the best of it. to answer all the questions they can and not bother the teachers. The next assignments to be delivered will be cor rect.
 Much interest is being evidenced in the plan to continue the work of the high school, stopped by the epidemic. by means of the mails Already six weeks have been lost, and it is in an effort to prevent any further loss that this system was devised.

MILFORD HEARS STRAIGHT TALK
 FROM MIR. HOYT
Special to The Times.)

Milford, Nov. 1.-The townsmen turned out last night in numbers to enjoy an old fashioned rally, at which Thomas J. SpeIacy was the chief speaker. Mir. Spellacy spoke of the necessity of supporting President Will son.
 A feature of the evening was a speech by William T. Hoyt, local can didate for representative. He said: T have had to saw a great deal of wood lately, physically I mean, not politically, for two reasons; first, think I fail to observe the food laws; second, for the patriotic saving of coal; and I have found that the only way to saw a real log, log big enough to be of some use to make the home comfortable and happy when the winds of winter blow, is to be sure and start straight and continue abso- lutely straight, and when you come to a knot that makes it more difficult, put a little muscle and energy in the saw, but by all means saw straight. I propose to saw my political wood on the three knotty problems for your Representative to decide in the Leg 1slature this fall the straight way so something may be done and not that something may not be done.
 1 T shall vote, if elected, for the Ma tional Prohibition Amendment, and it will be the proudest moment of my life to stand up in the Connecticut Legislature as a Representative of | Milford and vote yes for that. ''I shall Wote if elected, for Woman Suffrage because I believe the women as @ rule are better than the men as a rule, and consequently politics then will be just that much better. I have seen New York State vote for 1t by 100000 majority and I have seen the subsequent great improvement in the voting and the results.
 ''I shall vote, if elected, that Labor. the man who works, may get a square deal. You know what I mean bv a
 square deal with @ deck of cards. ex- cept1ng very lately Capital has not only done all the dealing but has dealt all the cards to themselves. giv- Ing Labor sometimes bread and but ter, sometimes only bread, and some
 times neither. Woodrow Wilson. the
 greatest man in the country today and
 one of the greatest in the world. has shown us the way and I stand ready
 to support in every way a square deal for you who work with either brain
 or hands.
 T stand pledged to work and vote flor: better Milford, a more prosper
 ous Connecticut and a greater United States of America"

Rome, Nov. In their otnclal statements, dealing with the Austr1ans on the Mont Grappa front in North ern Italy, the Italians have pressed the enemy so strongly that his front has collapsed, the war office anIounc- ed today.
 The statement reads:
 We advanced in the Brenta Vat- ley, capturing two guns which had been smelling the city of Bassano.
 "On the Grappa, under the impetus of the Fourth Army's thrust, the en- eny front has collapsed. It is i'm possible to estimate the prisoners coming down the mountains in f1ocks. All the hostile artillery here was captured. We have forced the Gorge of Quero, have passed beyond the spur east of Monteresen and are ad- vancing in the Piave valley.
 Overcoming the enemy rear guards at the Passo di St. Buldo we are de- scending into the Piave valley towards Belluna"
