It was said at the commission that
definite decision has not yet been made
in the three latter cases because 1t Is
not known which Of the married parties

Night School.

With the largest enrolment of any
school in the public school system, the
Mckinley Night High School has opened
its cafeteria to provide dinner for the
5000 persons who pursue their studies
there three evenings week.
This Is the first time a night school
in the District has undertaken to pro-
vide this service to, its students. The
move was adopted by E. j. Lockwood,
director of evening schools, after he
learned many of the night school stu
dents were sitting in classes from $3.50
to 9:56 pm. without having had dinner,
because they lacked time to eat between
the end of their days work and the
opening of school.
The Roosevelt Night High School,
with an enrolment of 2.300, as COM
pared with that schools day roll of
1888, will open its cafeteria as soon as

Word of the grand jury action was

tigation leading to the indictments was
prosecuted Forrest A. Harness, spe-
cial assistant to the Attorney General,
was sent to Milwaukee to present the
Government evidence to the grand jury.
The investigation was made by the
United States Bureau of Investigation,
whose director assigned several OF his
expert accountant agents to the case.
The inquiry has been under way Tor
some time, following receipt by the de-
partment of numerous complaints from
purchasers of the bonds.
The Government presented to the
grand jury about two dozen witnesses,
including employees of the Halsey, Stu
art Co., and James D. Hobbs, former

comes uncomfortably wet during the

to it for long, but will get up and

A FOrsaken Monarch.
There was a hint in the behavior of
the animals, Bingham says, ''of con-
structive imagination and different Ca
pacities in organization. The gray
haired leaders of two different groups
seemed to concentrate on opposite as
poets of the social environment. One
seemed to concentrate entirely on the
task of retiring with his eight followers.
The leadership of the other seemed to
rely on organized discipline of his %
followers, and to use variety of de-
vices for sizing up the human observers.
Responses of individual gorillas
within the group were by no means
StereOtyped, Dut there was In each IN
stance a social homogeniety that sug-
gested leadership and discipline. In
dividuals, and possibly subordinate units
of the whole troop, seemed to adopt to
one another under different circum-
stances and with varying degrees of
confusion and appropriateness.
In all but one case the gorilla nests
found by Bingham were in groups. The
single exception was a large, lone nest
high in the mountains. The possible
explanation suggested is that this was
the last retreat of leader grown too
old to lead a band. The possibility is,
Bingham suggests, that band grows
smaller and smaller as the younger
males depart with few companions to
form bands of their own when the old
leader is too feeble to retain them. FL
nally the monarch is left all alone in
the mountains where food is scarce.
