APPOINTS ADVISORY NIGHT CUSS BOARD School Board Prepares for Opening the Industrial Courses at Once. Industrial training courses In the night school will be started as soon as enough people" make application for enrollment to organize the classes. The academic classes will probably be started next week. Members of the school board will meet this evening to select the membership of the two advisory boards that will supervise the work of the vocational classes. One board will have charge of the men's work, and one the women's classes. The members of these boards will be practical factory and trades people. The vocational classes for men will Include training classes in carpentry, pattern making, forging, molding, printing, machinist's trade, plumbing, electrician's trade, . and mechanical drawing and mathematics for carpenters, pattern makers and machinists. The women's classes will be organized for home dressmaking, millinery, sewing, cooking and home making. Twenty-six teachers were required last year to handle the night school classes and it is thought that the industrial classes will make it necessary to secure several -more teachers this year.

P, 0, INVESTIGATES CITY DELIVERY COST Orders Probe to Learn Feasibility, of Penny Postage Project. What is believed to be the first investigation to ascertain the practicability of penny postage on letters for local delivery was ordered today in postoffices over the country by the department at Washington.
