Apâ€" proximately seven hundred persons gm Highland Park and the neighâ€" boring communities were in attendâ€" ance. â€" The average â€"attendance for the term was above seventyâ€"five per gent of the enrollment figures. This per cent of attendance is far in exâ€" gess of the usual attendance record for such projects. _ _ All classes except leatherwork will be offered again during the seeâ€" â€"ond term if a sufficient number of persons are enrolled. In addition, ‘gourses in cooking and rifle instrucâ€" tioin will be offered. The advance registration for the second term is the heaviest ifirge historyâ€"of the project and presént indications point to another successâ€" ful term. 2 The class in upholstery ‘has al-‘ ready been filled and only a few more persons can be admitted into the woodwork and Monday evening badminton classes. : ~ Two hundred and fifty people have now enrolled and fifty more have reserved places in the different. courses. In addit_ion,'mote than one hundred men from Fort Sheridan have indicated their desire to. attend ‘our classes through Major Smith. Considerable interest is also beâ€" ing shown in the new class in rifle instruction. Both men and women may enroll in this group. This course undoubtedly will prove esâ€" pecially popular to young men who are liable to be drafted, because such instruction will help them become nonâ€"commissioned â€" officers shortly after their arrival at camp. Instruction in this class will be given by some of the best men in this linc in the country. Highland Park is very fortunate to have such men as Major Parker, Mr. Haupt, Dr. Butterworth and Mr. Cole beâ€" hind this project. i _ _Further â€"registrations for â€" all courses not yet filled may be made on January 6 and 8 at the main office of the Highland Park High school. The office will be open from 7 to 9:830 p.m.â€" No classes will be held until January 13. Everyone must some day‘ fa_ce death, but why expedite the inevitâ€" able by driving carelessly on slipâ€" pery pavements?
