BLIss'S RESIGNATION.
Kearny Education Board Agrees to with
drawal of Supervising Principal.

After laying over the resignation of
former Supervising Principal Don G. Bliss
for a month because of the abrupt man.
ner in which 1t had been handed to the
board, the Kearny Board of Education
at its regular meeting last night decided
to accept It upon the recommendation of
the school government committee, through
Chairman Frank c. Plat. The action was
brought about largely by the fact that
Mr.. Bliss's successor had been appointed
to fill the vacancy that actually did not
occur until after the resignation was ac-
cepted, the board not taking the other
alternative of discharging the former prin-
cipal. There was no discussion on the
question.
Fire Chief Charles w. Greenfield told
the board that he considered 1t advis-
able to have more fire extinguishers in
stalled in the several school buildings, and
also recommended that reels of hose be
placed In the buildings as a safeguard.
These suggestions were held In allegiance
until after the chief had made a thor
ough investigation of the buildings. The
matter was referred to the supply COM
mittee.
Miss Ehie Engleton, a teacher in the
High School, asked to be relieved from
her contract in order that she might ac-
cept a more lucrative position in New
York city. Her request was laid over.
The board decided to open the schools
on September 3.

TWO EIGHTH GRADES.
Harrison Education Board May Estab-
lish Them in One School.

The nroposftion to create two eighth
classes In School No. 8 engaged the atten-
tion of the Harrison Board of Education,
which met last night as a committee of
the whole.
At present there is only one class of this
grade in the school, but, with an in
creased attendance this year, it is thought
another will be necessary.
Supervising Principal John Dwyer gave
his views on the matter, and said 1t was
quite practical to form two classes.
Previous to the opening of School No. 3
eighth grade classes were held in Schools
Nos. l and 2, and these were abolished
when the teaching staff was selected for
the new school. The eighth grade pupils
were then transferred to the new school,
and from that time on the highest class
In Schools Nos. l and 2 has been the
seventh grade.
Other matters under consideration was
the establishment of a commercial course
in the High School, the proper books to be
used and a new system of ~penmanship and
drawing.
The supervising principal announced that
he will have a conference with Principal
Corneli-s A. McGlennon in regard to these
innovations. and will report on them at the
next meeting. The board, therefore, post
poned further action.
Trustee O'Neill displayed a model of the
proposed hoods to be placed on School
No. 8. This pleased the other members
so we'll that it was adopted, thus finally
settling a question which has been before
the board some time.
Some carpenter work on the schools was
awarded to Frank Hughes and painting
to James Wilhelm A new fence was or,
dered built around the Washington Street
School.

CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR
Former State Senator from Somerset to
Announce Willingness to Accept
Democratic Nomination.
Especial to tho Evening start

SOMERVILLE, Aug. 21.-It is re-
ported here today that former State
Senator S. S. Childs, of Somerset
County, is preparing in his summer
home at Bernardsville a letter to be
sent to the Somerset County Demo-
cratic committee which will virtually
place Mr.. Childs in the field as a can
didate for the Democratic nomination
for Governor.
This county has already indorsed the
former State Senator for Governor, and
Democrats from other counties have
urged him to get in the race. His let
ter, according to good authority, will
state that he is willing to stand for
the nomination as a Democrat indie
pendent of bosses, and with old-fash-
Toned ideas of honesty in public office.
The announcement will not come as a
surprise for it has been known that
Mr.. Childs had been urged to run. and
was in no WA averse to doing SO.
In his letter, 1t is said, he will outline
his views. and say that he will only be
a candidate on a platform which is
framed by the Embossed Democrats OF
he State and which meets State is
sues in a fair and frank way.
Mr.. Childs is a thorough believer in
local option on the excise question, and
if he is a candidate he will urge this
as a solution of the liquor question.
Mr.. Childs is a wealthy man, having
made his money out of the extensive
restaurant system bearing his name.

oS.&s
New Rector of Christ p. E. Church.
The Rev. Altman A. Jaynes, recently an
pointed rector of Christ Episcopal Church.
corner of Congress and Prospect streets,
Will enter on his duties at once. Christ
Church is at present presumably in the
cathedral church of the diocese. 1t was
without a rector when the Right Rev,
Edwin S. Lines became bishop of the
diocese. He appointed himself rector OF
Christ Church and remained in charge OF
the parish until the appointment of the
Rev. Mr.. Jaynes.
The new rector is a graduate of Brown
University, Providence, r. l. He 6rst
studied for the medical profession, but
finally decided to enter the ministry of
the Protestant Episcopal Church. He was
graduated from the theological seminary
in 1902. and was ordained deacon and priest
by Bishop Huntington, of Central New
York. His first appointment was chaplain
of st. Johns Military School at Maubius,
N. Y. He next filled three missionary sta
lions In Upper New York State with much
success.
When the Rev. Mr.. Jaynes was called
to the diocese of Newark he was rector
of st. Paul's Episcopal Church., of SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, and while he was there he
succeeded In wiping out a large part of
a long-standing parish debt.
Christ Church In Newark has had In its
history some distinguished and learned
clergymen or rectors. Among them were
the Rev. DR.. Robert @. Lowell, brother
of James Russell Lowell, of Boston, who
had national and International fame as a
writer and poet; the venerable Dean
Stansbury and the Rev. DIR. Dean Bah
bitt, now of Brooklyn, N. Y. The church
has had its ups and downs, but it is in
a thickly settled neighborhood and bids
fair to become a iourishing parish.
