claimed. Threshing returns from

Coarse grains were easier early

There is no sign of reconciliation

leave South Bend as soon as pos

extent of Poulin's guilt, she says.
he Is undecided as to where she
will go.
IF the court finds Harry Poulin
innocent of being the father of my
baby boy, l fear that I shall never

who is the father of my last born
baby. Harry Poulin must pay and
if they tell me that he is not Blly's
father, I shall prove it in a higher
court that he is.''
There has been no conciliation.

and perhaps the trial has brought

has not offered to forget our past

High Schools on Double

System.
HOPEFUL OF BUDGET
Superintendent Ball0u Believes
Bureau Will Be
Lenient.

The greatest number of children
in the history of Washington are
now enrolled in the public schools.
Although the second week OF the
school year is not yet over. the peak
"a last years enrolment has been
pissed and the number is growing
tnily.
The school population. as recorded
"wednesday. shows a total of 64,671.
This was only 1913 less than the
highest enrolment last year Since
Wednesday, however. officials esti-
mate that the daily increase has
carried the present enrolment well
beyond the old figure.
The outstanding feature of this
tabulation, officials say. is the re-
m1rkable increase in High School
students Already there have been
enrolled in the high schools 1914
more students than were in attend
ance at any time last year.
Every high school in the system
Is crowded to capacity. Practically
all OF them are operating either the
double shift or the part-time class
system. In Western High, where
the double shift is being used. it has
been found necessar yto reduce :be
number If afternoon classes also.
No relief from this situation Is
be lieved to be possible this year.
The opening of Eastern High School.
II is said. will reduce the strain to
a small degree. However. officials
point out that even with this addi-
tion only 400 more students can bs
accommodated.
Superintendent Ballou is optimis-
tic regarding the action of the Bu-
reau of the Budget on school ap-
preparations. While there has been
no official word from budget officials.
it is known that their inspection Cf
the schools this wek impressed upOn
them the necessity for additional
financing. For this reason officials
are confident that a large number
