LONDON. July 5. The French con tinue to make more progresa than the Ilrltlsh on the western front, owing partly to the 'more difficult ground facing the Ilrltlsh and also to tbe fact that stronger forces are opposing 'them because of the belief among the Germans that the main attack In tho present operations will be on the Ilrlt lsh front. Hut, uesplte their slower progre, the Ilrltlsh are successfully beating back heavy German counter attacks, which have been delivered both day and night In the regions of La Bols selle and Thiepvul, and, generally, be tween the Ancre and the Somme, where they are milking steady pn-- rNs. It Is estimated that the German losses lu the battle of the Somme thus far are approximately 60,000. The capture of guns has been compara tively small, because the Germans, iu anticipation of the offensive, with drew their big. artillory to longer ranges before tho battle began.

Tbe total cost of operating tbe high achool during the last year, exclusive of Interest on Investment and depre ciation, was $13,215.47, the total nun ber of pupils enrolled was 417, and the number of days taught 175. In making up that portion of the report which had to do with attendance of pupils, 417 was used as a divisor. In stead of 175, which made tbe average dally attendance 147.4, instead of 351ft. Cuing the Utter figure aa a divisor, tbe cost per pupil figures $37.54. In determining tbe amount the school district shall receive from the tuition fund, County School Superintendent Calavan obtains the cost per day, di viding the total cost by the total num ber of days attendance, which waa 61, 565.5. The cost per day of .2147 for each pupil is then multiplied by 32, 438, being the total number of days at tendance by non-resident pupils, and under this method of calculation the Oregon City district will obtain $6964.44.
