The question of revision of the

The question of revision of the
school law of this State, for the
purpose of which the Legislature is
now convened in special session,
comes home to the people of Nor
ristown with striking significance.
The situation becomes all the more
serious from the fact that the gen
eral public is in total ignorance of
what it is all about, or what import
it is to our community. In fact,
there are very few people to be
found able to give the faintest ap-
proach to satisfactory explanation
of the present educational situation.
A recent interview between a repre-
sentative of The Chronicle and a
gentleman who has been closely in
touch with the present school prob
lem from its beginning disclosed
the following facts The boundary
line of the city of Morristown and
the boundary line of the school dis
trict which supports the schools of
the city are not coterminous but,
instead, the school district bounda-
ry lies outside the city line, leaving
a rim, as it were, of the school dis
trict outside the city limits. The
new law provided that the two
boundary lines shall be made the
same. This means that the rim re-
ferred to is to be cut off from our
present district and turned into that
portion of the township cared for
by the township Board. 1t also
means that the pupils in this circle
must be sent to the rural schools,
instead Of to the schools in Norris
town, If they attend our city
schools they must pay the regular
tuition fee, while the people will
still be taxed as greatly as at pres
ent for the support of the rural
schools. And even at such a sacri
fee these pupils are likely to be
barred entirely from our city schools
as soon as the room is needed for
our own pupils. 1t means that all
the pupils of Western avenue be-
yond Cherry street, of Speedwell
avenue beyond Speedwell Lake, of
South street beyond Woodlawn av-
enue, and of Water street beyond
Weber's corner, are to be denied the
privilege of high school course
at any cost, except when there may
chance to be room to accommodate
them. In many cases it means that
pupils must go three or four miles
to attend little rural school, passing
the veIy doors of the Maple avenue
building on their way In word
it is denying the people of this por-
tion of our present school district
the privilege of educating their chill
dren in the schools which their
money has helped to build, and Civ
ing them no chance to educate them
elsewhere.
And what is true of Morristown
is true Of Long Branch and doubt
less of number of other cities and
towns in the State
