Teacher Is Needed.

Morris school gives. not only to the boy
but to the principals and teachers, as is
attested by them, we hoped the school
board would grant a teacher for these
backward and unruly boys, working with
us to make of them good, well behaved
and studiouS pupils of the schools.
mo definite action being taken on this
request, and the boys needing school and
the law commanding that they have it,
there was no alternative but TO send
them 20 school in the district in which
they reside.
"a tale comes TO us that certain mem
bers of the board have a belief that we
are attempting to get recognition from
them for the Norris school as a seIni-offi-
cial public school. Such is not the case.
We want a recognition of the boys not

that the board will grant free books to
the Y. NJ. c. A. night school for boys
who are not identified with the public
schools of the city, and refuse books to
the boys who are entered in the various
schools of the city.
1.-The argument that each boy can at
tend his school is of no force. when the
fact is that he will not do so, or that
because of his mistakes he should have a
period of punishment. l believe as well,

but the welfare of the boys, l feel sure
that you and the school board can solve
the problem. 1t is not difficult.

A meeting of the teachers committee,
which was to have been held Monday, did
not take place owing to lack of a quo
rum, but will be held Thursday afternoon,
at which time the matter will be taken
up and a recommendation made to the
board of education. Pending the decision
of the board the Morris students will be
kept from the Hamilton school

Corrective Measures Taken.

"A large number of the residents how
ever, have made mistakes and. therefore,
must have some punishment. During the
school year the greater number are those
who are habitual truants of the public
schools, boys who have repeatedly ran
away. and are brought into the court for
correction, even as wards of the court,
some continue their fault. In the past. a
period in the Morris school has worked
correction. i do not think that such a
boy is criminal, nor should he be com
mitted TO the state Industrial school But
these boys should be compelled to do the
thing they refuse to do j. G., go to school
and study.
Since the public schools have opened
we have had an average of fifteen boys
in the Norris school, Parents who have
boys in this place justly complain that
they are without schooling. Just what
my boy likes said one father. These
boys are found to be the backward BOYS
OF the SchOolroOm. They are the ones
who cause the teacher the most trouble
and are often in the principals office. In
stead OF no school, they should have
twice the hours of study in the Morris
school. Their books remain in their old
room in school, while the boy sits at an
empty school desk in the Morris school,
bookless and teacherless. 1t seems to
me simple arrangement. that the boy
when he leaves his school district be per-
mitted to have his books for use for his
