The fiourishing, if somewhat cratic French battlefield press has not en- tirely disappeared since the armistice, says a, Reuter- dispatch from Paris in the Westminster Gazette. The former French editors of trench journals have banded themselves together and formed "a friendly society of news papers of the front" They still pub fish joint paper, little known be- cause it Is not on sale to the general public, called the Ex-presse du Front.
 In the last number of this journal, which appears in as cratic a manner as did It's predecessors when they had to bow to the exigencies of a days hard smelling or night counter attack, appears a notice to readers: "Never grow anxious when the Ex-presse is late" it reads.

Beautiful Lake. of Atitlan.

This is the Lake of Atitlan, situated in what pr. Maudslay describes as lone Of the most beautiful and least known re- gions on the American continent" The Indians in the neighborhood Of the lake are the descendants of the Ohiches, Cachiquels and Zutugils, and still retain many of their old customs.

INTO LIFE'S SCHOOL

We wish that we were going with the Senior class of the High School on that trip to Washington this Saturday. Not that we have never made the trip, but we feel that the time spent in studying the members of the class as they entrain and after they arrive at the capitol, would be well repaid. To watch the various expressions fit across their faces as that, to-be-expected feeling of sophistication vanishes; to try to understand thes various impressions made by new and old things in an atmosphere entirely different to that in which they live, would be interesting indeed. e|..
 This trip will be to many their first lesson in ife's school. It will be much the same in principle as the school from which they are about to graduate, except that the discipfin- arian will be moved by ' neither tears nor excuses and the result of failure is an ignominous life of short duration. By failure we do not mean that that boy or girl. has failed who does not attain an exalted posi- tion in life, for the number who have gained this distinction is small indeed compared to the masses who have not.
 School life has inculcated the principle of fairness, honesty, consideration and industriousness. Life's school demands the strict adherence to these principles if we would enjoy it beauties and gather it's mellow fruits of happiness. The infallible law of compensation, a stern paymaster to be sure, yet just, will not overlook an infraction of life's rules and laws, but is equally willing sto reward the faithful and meritorious efforts of all. 1

how the combat will end. and are even
willing to take some bets against the
Chicago quintet, who are rated as one
OF the bess basketball teams in the
country. Led by the famous Paddy

! ers will fight twice as hard as they viii
win great credit for defeating the Bic
Five who UP to date have only dropped
three games. Manager Finn of the Wis
'tors will bring his strongest lineup to
Hammond as he knows that the local
team is composed Of the best material
around Indiana, and is not taking any
chances IN being defeated.
He expects to use Feeney at center
Johnson. Marquard and Brissler at for
ward. and Cochrane and DrfScoll at the
guard position. Hammond will have
Smith at guard. Shelton and Harris will
MI the forward position. while Thomp-
son Will hold down the pivot position.
Judging by the advance ticket sale. the
largest crowd ever to witness a game
in Hammond. is expected to be on hand
when the referee toots his whistle for
the first jump. Manager Chaykeu has
also secured preliminary contest be-
