With high wind driving swirling
clouds of dust through the sJreets
Morristown people are clamoring for
relief but none is promised. Former
Street Commissioner Howard J. Cole
announced month ago that his ap-
preparation for oiling the streets was
not yet used up and that the streets
would receive another oiling before
winter set in. But he has resigned
and nothing has been done.
Alderman Henry Cory, chairman OF
the street committee, says that there
would be no relief because it was toe
cold to use oil on the thoroughfares,
He offered no other solution Of the
dust question, saying that nothing
will be done by his department in the
matter.

Held at Dover

Held at Dover.
Teachers Institute for Morris coufl-
ty was held on Thursday and Friday
of last week. All the public schools
of the county were closed, viii e
the teachers met in the Library
Hall at Dover, to hear addresses on
educational subjects.
Dr. Charles I'll. Keyes gave two in
spring talks on Life and Growth of
the Teacher" and Tests OF True
Teaching. "
Every teacher should study con-
stantly TO advance her own academic
education, he said, and particularly
along the line of her favorite study,
regardless of whether she teaches
that particularly study or not. She
should also keep up her study on the
art and science that underlie the prac-
tice of education. She should study
to keep young, and allow body and
brain neither to be poisoned by the
foul air of an unventilated school
room nor half baked by an overheated
room. She should cultivate temper
amental good cheer.
Five tests Of true teaching are
these Has the teacher given to the
pupil mastery OF the subject matter
of study? Has she implanted in him
an unconquerable desire for more and
better knowledge? Has she fixed in
him habit OF industry Has she in
fused into all the school activities a
spirit OF perpetual Joy ? Has she
| taught children to work together,
each for all and all for EACH.
John G. Stone, of the Montclair Nor
NAL school, gave three interesting
talks on the usually prosy subject OF
arithmetic. His subjects we're "The
Trend in Arithmetic in Content,
Method and Technique" Vitalizing
the Work of the Lower Grades in
Arithmetic" and /" Vitalizing the
| Work of the Higher Grades in Arith-
metic. z
A. B. Meredith, County Superin-
tendent Of Essex county, spoke on
" Making Our Schools More Practi-
cal" !" and DR.. J. H. Hulsart, County
/ Superintendent of Morris county, in
an address made suggestions as to the
management and Improvement of our

All the addresses were interest
ing and stimulating. That this va

TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE MOON
Come Off On Schedule Time Monday
NiSht.

The total eclipse of the moon by the
the earth's shadow came duly on sched-
ule time Monday night and was viewed
with interest by many hundreds of the
city residents, some of whom had been
disappointed in not seeing Halley's
comet and were therefore somewhat
skeptical as to whether the moon and
earth would perform the schedule stunt.
But the moon did not disappoint; she
was on time to the minute and promptly
at 1923 p. M, entered the shadow of the
earth, the total eclipse beginning at
1908 a. M, ending at 1853. the moon
leaving the shadow entirely at 2:2l a.
m. The total time Of eclipse was three
hours and thirty-siX minutes from start
to finish. During this time the eartb's
satellite crossed the planets shadow,
which is about ), 700 miles in diameter.
During the total eclipse, as usual, the
night luminary was apparent though
dimly obscured, being seen as an indis-
tinct coppery disc. The sun at the time
of the eclipse was back of the spectator,
being at the opposite side of the earth.
A very good and clear view of the
eclipse was obtained in Oakland
1t was reported that the comet could
also be observed in the western sky but
if Old HALEY were present at that point
of the heavens, he was there in very
shadowy and indistinct form, undiscern-
ed to the naked eye. The fallacy of re-
porting "seeing the comet" is due to
the wish being father to the thought
with many who are so anxious to see
that celestial wanderer that they think
the first bright star they see is the
comet,
