School Trouble in Pittsgrove.

The increasing population of Jews in
PittsgrOve demands two new school
houses, n at Brotmanville and anoth-
or at Norma. Last spring the voters
decided to build the two school houses
and voted that $1,000 be raised for
each.
Specification furnished by the State
were chosen, and the members of the
board who had been appointed as a
building committee advertised for bids,
the lowest bid received being $1,000,
building material having advanced
nearly SO per cent. in the meantime.
The board last week voted to dis.
charge the committee. The teachers
had been engaged for the new buildings
for October /. The next regular meet
ing is in September, and it looks now
as if the schoolhouses would not be
built this year. Should this prove to be
the case, the Hebrew voters say they
will have a grievance to settle at the
next school election.
