illegal or irregular. Why would it not be
a good thing for the Board to have pre-

the statutes on the questions it has to deal
with. What knowledge has the commit

which jurers are allowed 81 per day for
serving, when the law says ''$I for each

items that are paid that might be cut out,
and there are legal requirements in con-

NEXT Monday evening the Republicans
of this county will select delegates to the
convention to choose candidates for the
Senate and Assembly. The present indi-
cations are that if proper persons are
named nomination will be equivalent to
an election Burlington county has been
ably represented in the legislative halls
the past three years and this is not time
to go backward. From the gentlemen
now in the field there should be little
trouble in securing candidates of integrity
and intelligence. The people have charge
of this matter. Attend the meetings to
elect delegates, on Monday evening, and
see that the selections are your own and
not those of would-be bosses.

Americans- CommercIaI schoo,

The American Business School is in q
certain sense unique It's courses are the
result of demands made by the business
community and when due allowances are
made for the difference of environment, 1t
will be found that our hest American
Commercial Schools compare favorably
with the best European Commercial
Schools. Competent observers, who have
visited the German Commercial School al
Leipzig, pronounced the business course
of Peirce School of Philadelphia in many
respects superior to that of the European
school. The shorthand department o
PIERCE School is the largest shorthand
school in the State, its faculty is imposed
of certi6cated experienced stenographers
its typewriting equipment is probably thu
largest in the world, and instruction il
this art is systematically given by skill
ed specialist. Its English course is thor
oughly practical.
