War On Consumption.

The death of 1854 consumptiyes in
New Jersey last year could have been
prevented, Tor the most part, by
proper educational and hygienic
measures, is the information contain
ed in the first annual report of the
New Jersey Association for the Pre-
yention and Relief of Tuberculosis.
The association plans continued ac-
tive warfare against the disease
Among the leading features of the
campaign to be waged are the estab-
lishment of day camps and hospitals,
investigation of hygienic conditions
IN all buildings, including homes;
stereoptican exhibits of stages of the
diseases, and compulsory registration
of cases by physicians. To carry on
the work, the association estimates
TINT I'd, 900 Is necessary in addition to
its present fund.
1t will probably interest many OF
our readers to learn how to gain adj
mission to the New Jersey Sanator-
ium for Tuberculosis diseases at Glen
Gardner. Here are the requirements:
Persons who pass the physical ex.
animation, and can pay five dollars
per week in advance for board, and
seyenty-five cents for thermometer
and sputum cup, may be admitted at
once.
Others may go before the Judge OF
the court of common pleas OF their
county, and being declared INDECENT,
may be admitted free.
Only those cases that are deemed OF
curable nature, and between the
ages of 10 and IS years of age, are adj
mitted.
The board of managers have ap,
pointed examiners OF patients for ad-
mission throughout the State. Those
for Monmouth county are Drs. A. j.
Jackson, Matawan; George II. Baker,
Long Branch; w. M. Hepburn, Free
hold; William Kinmonth, Farming
dale; James b. Wainwright, Manas-
guam; George +. Wilbur, Asbury
Park. After the patient is examined.
the papers are sent to the Sanatorinm
after which they are notified from
there of their acceptance or rejection.
There are now SO patients in the
institution, and the most of them are
gaining in weight and strength daily.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

A special meeting of the Board of
Education was held on Thursday ev-
ening, March, 10Th, president Ryan
presiding. All members we're present
except John Call.
The meeting was called to take ac-
ton on the communication aud report
of the Board of Engineers of the Fire
Department il regard to their inspec-
ton OF our city schools. After few
remarks by members OF the board, on
the report made by the Board OF En-
gineers, when on motion of DIR. Clos
son, the suggestions be referred to
the Building and Repairs committee
and they attend to the duties at once,
carried. On motion Of VIM. II. Moon
that the Supervising Principal adopt
the system Of Fire Drills of the pupils
Of our public schools, carried. On
motion of VIM. II. Moon the Books
and Furniture committee to ascertain
the cost OF 4 gongs to be used for Fire

SafeQuardlnl Pupils.

A comm ittee from the board of en-
gineers of the Lambertyile fire de-
partment completed an inspection of
the four public school buildings Sun
day afternoon. The committee was
composed of Chief Engineer Arnett
and his assistants, James Moonan
and Joseph N. Hazen. They were
accompanied by members of the
building committee of the board of
education.
Their findings show that immediate
steps should be taken to provide bet
ter safeguards in the schools. The
Second ward school, in Bridge street
is the greatest menace, as it has nc
fire escape and arrangements are mos
untitled for school building. The
| firemen will insist tina fire escapes be
| provided at once, saying that they
| will have the school closed unless
| such action is taken. They also rec.
ommend alterations in some of the
other buildings.
Supervising Principal Boutwell, vii
have fire drills instituted in all the
departments of the schools aud fire
gongs placed. This has been urged
by Lambertville citizens for several
years, but was never done.
At "A meeting to be held within n
| few days the board of engineers will
| formally present its recommendations
to the school trustees. 1t is likely
that all places for public gatherings
will come in for share of attention
This city has no building inspector,
such work devolying upon the chiei
OF the fire department.

A Call For Nurses.

The residents Of This part of the
state will be interested in the call
for nurses issued by one Of the larg-
est and most famous schools for
nurses in the world-the Philadel-
phia School for Nurses, 22l9 Chest
nut street, Philadelphia, Pa.
Good, honest, ambitious American
girls, whether rich or poor, cannot do
better than to take up the finest pro-
fession now open to women--trained
nursing The trained nurse occupies
a unique position among business wo-
men. Her salary is approached by
that of very few of her sister workers
in other lines of effort, she is indie.
pendent and receives great considera
tion and respect.
The profession is so far from being
overcrowded that it is an important
question among physicians how the
deficiency may be made up. since no
school is of sufficient capacity to meet
the need. The nearest approach to 4
solution has been found by the Phila
delphia School for Nurses. A gener-
GUS endowment enables the school to
enlarge its classes very greatly and to
offer large number of free scholar
ships to suitable applicants. 1t is
now desired to reach the right class
of young women in small towns and
country districts, that its classes for
the coming year may be recruited
from them.
Several hundred students are now
receiving instruction. large class
was graduated in June, and another
in December. These young women
are Immediately employed, the de-
mand for their services far exceeding
the supply. There are graduates IN
nearly every State OF the Union, and
in all civilized countries there are Q
number OF representatives. In every
mission field as In their home com
munities, they are winning a warm
place in the hearts Of the people by
earnest and unselfish service to theil
fellow beings. Important positions
in large institutions are also held By
them with the greatest success. One
graduate expressed the feeling oil
many when she said II shall never
cease to be grateful to the School fol-
the greatest blessings that have com,
into my life."
Glasses are now forming in several o
the courses Of the school, and appli-
cations should be made promptly il
order to secure early admittance
Full information will be sent upon
request.
