While most o f the national legislators were glad t o ' see Great Britain obtain aid, and expressed their realization o f the value o f the bases obtained, there was, and is, a general condemnation o f the methods used by the President in eonsumating the deal. Regardless o f the results, and whether we become involved in war as a result thereof or not, it is contended that the President has shown his distrust and contempt fo r constitutional methods and fo r Congress itself.

Miss Murdock, the bookkeeper had a complete record o f the checks SO that payme.* t on each was stopped and so far there has been no clue. Sheriff Henkel’s office was informed but so far n<•i*,of tbe checks have been pre­ sented to any o f the banks fo r pay­ ment, No doubt the fslleW that lifted tbe billfold thought there was cur­ rency in it. The checks may yet turn Up or they may have been destroyed rather, than risk cashing them.

Total enrollment— 600, Many Change* Mads This year, students found many new ideas in effect especially in the high school. The hour period is being used this year fo r the first time in all classes. The hour period provides for both class work and supervised study. This gives the students the advantage o f studying their- lessons under the direction o f the teacher In charge o f eaclt class, which is a distinct im­ provement over the former plan where students had to prepare all o f their lessons in study halls and at home. This reduces the total number o f class periods from eight to six. New Study Hall The stpdy hall this year is located in rooms 200 and 201 instead o f the auditorium as in former years. Also, by using the hour period, the number o f students in the study halls has been reduced considerably. With thto new plan high school students should be able to prepare most o f their work at school if they budget their time properly. I f is not recommended, how­ ever, that home work be eliminated entirely. Students who expect to de­ rive the maximum result* from their school work should expect to do seme heme work.
