TROOPS POUR THROUGH LONDON; KING GEORGE REVIEWS REGIMENT BRITISHERS CHEE ON THEIR W England Encouraged by News That 300,000 American Sold France During May London—American _ soldiers, _fine- looking boys who only a few months ago were clerks, salesmen, factory workers and men from all walks of life, are pouring through London in a constant stream on their way to “the frontier of freedom.” Hardly a day goes by that does not see a number of regiments entrain in London for’ the front. They are enthusiastically greeted by the English people, who have been deeply i pressed by the appearance of Ameri- can’s troops. The announcement that 300,000 sol- diers will have been sent to France from the United States in May was received in London with acclaim. Not all these soldiers pass through Lon- don, as a goodly at French ports direct but those who do receive a I greeting.

COMMENCEMENT 10 MARK CLOSE OF GREAT YEAR Term in Mandan Public Schools Has Been Progressive and Unusually Successful EXERCISES FRIDAY, JUNE 7 The 1917-18 term of school closes in Mandan June 7 and with ist close one of the most successfdl terms of school generally speaking will have been brought to an end. New work successfully introduced marks the most important achievements of the year’s work. No litle distinction is credited to Mandan on account of its schools being the very first to) discontinue the teaching of the Ger- man language of any school in the northwest. It graduates a class of seventeen and commencement will be held at the Palace theatre on Friday after- noon, June 7. At that time a class of 52 pupils to graduate from the grammar department will receive their certificates. Exemplifying Physical Culture. One of the most successful of the rew departments. conducted at the Mandan public schools during the past term has been the depaitmen} of physical culture under the direction of Miss Georgia Brandenberg. Only a few days ago an excellent demon- ; stration of what has been accomplish: ed in that particular department was shown when a two eevning-s exhibi- tion was given by the physical culture | class, Military Work. No little attention has been given the high school military organization known as the high school cadet ne der the able command of Captain Glen Gray the high school cadets have drilled into a very creditable high} school military organization. The boys drilled with wooden guns and similar equipment. A few months ago Gien Gray enlisted in the radio de- vartment of) the land or sea duty, Clifford Thorberg has been in charge ot the cadets, Home Economics. Home economics during the past | school term has achieved a very prom- inent part in the local high school course of study. Next term a four: year course in home economics will be instituted. An especially trained teacher will be employed to have; charge of that department. During the past few weeks the Mandan. high schoo! has agreed to conform with) the standard work as prescribed by gevernment and state, and therefore, the local public schools will receive the federal aid given for this particu- lar work. Success In Athletics. (Never has Mandan experienced a more successful school year in ath- Jetics. The M. H. S. captured the southwestern championship for the fastest basket ball quint. The play- ers, were not experienced in the game put after a few weeks of practice they developed into exceptionally good ma- terial. Although they failed in the state tourney they made a’good show- ing. Athletics generally speaking were very successfully conducted in that department in the high school this school year.
