teachers slated to end their connection
with the school authorities at the close
of the present yea to give up their
places Letters were sent the school
teachers whose services are no longer
required by Secretary William G.. Nc
curdy, that as the board did not in
tend 10 rename the instructors they
would make matters easy by r~esigning.
The receipt of the letters resulted in
the teachers friends rallying to their
support. Friends of one teacher, the
only support Of an aged mother, invalid
brother and has a sister in an institu-
ton, i~ntereeded. but the board voted to
let the old teachers go as the commit
tee had advised.
That a fight may follow the removals
is predicted, and the next move in the
proceedings is awaited with interest.
Owing to the failure to get school
funds from, the State as expected, no
new contracts with teachers have been
arranged for. The school budget cam
not be decided upon as yet. owing TO
lack of the expected money which is
proximately at s95. 900.

WANT BETTER
FACILITIES FOR
SCHOOL LECTURES
West End lmprovers in Irving
ton Discuss Matters of
Civic Weight.

Inadequate accommodation in the
local schools for public lectures AMI
large gatherings was a subject taken
III at the monthly meeting of the West
End Improvement Association In Ju-
bert's. Hall, ~Irvington, last night. Presi-
dent Albert J. Lacompe stated thai he
had attended the last public lecture
given in the Central Grammar School
under the auspices of the Board OF
Education, and he felt that the board
was doing laudable work in arranging
such lectures. The ROOM which was
occupied by the large audience, ne
found, however. to be poorly venti-
lated.
Women were compelled TO cup
seats intended for children, the means
of exit, especially in emergency, were
insufficient, and. in, fact, the building,
which was among the early ones erect
ed in h town, is old in style and
construction. He believed 1t was a
matter which should deeply engage
the attention of the association. Ed
ward Helm and Reinhold Kniep spoke
in similar vein.
The committee on the proposed mu-
nicipal lighting plant for the town
'preliminarily reported that the joint
committee recently appointed had an
estimate from a prominent engineer
giving the probable ost of erecting
and maintaining aGplant suitable for
the town.

Both parties were in court and gave
their version, and Branegan settled
the. case, but not to the satisfaction of
Mrs. Newton, 1t is said. The women
