What promises to be perhaps the
most eventful week yet of the Paris
Peace Conference opens to-day with
a plenary session of that body, with
League of Nations in prospect.
There is also a feeling prevalent
in Paris that the treaty of peace will
be ready for presentation to the Ger
man delegates by Saturday Of this
week, before which time it is hoped
the Italian situation may resolve it
self.
AS to the peace treaty, the most
important matter still to be steeled
is the problem of composing the Jap
anese and Chinese claims to Kiao
Chau and the Shantung peninsula. A
decision on this subject has been eX-
pectcd for several days and it may
be anr<unced to-day.
Matters dealing with the disposi-
ton of the German cables, the repa-
triation of German prisoners of war
and the future status of the Kiel ca

bourg are also pending. but it is be-
lieved they are in fair way toward
an adjustment.

made fully aware of any abnormal
conditions prevailing last year that
may affect the standing or work OF
the pupils this year. The records OF
the pupils. details of work ac-
complished, outline of courses in
various subjects should be in the
teachers hands early. Sympathetic
cooperation of teachers with pupils
must be insisted upon. The teachers
must have all the help you can give
them.
Three lines Of special activity
should receive attention this year:
1. Americanization and citizen
ship. The High school must be the
laboratory for citizenship. 1t must be
American in thought. word and deed.
Every pupil should he required to
complete a course in Community
Civics within the first two years Of

,. Guidance in choice of life work.
Time should be set aside for sys-
tematic study of the vocations, their

their rewards. There should be no

American must be physically fit. The
High school must undertake a pro-
gram that will make him so. Every
studen: must be affected by it. The
physical examination, the setting up
exercises, the group of mass ath
letics and play, and the instruction in
personal and community hygiene can
be and must be worked out for every
school.
