OWNER OF LUNCH
WAGON MOVES RIG
WITHOUT PERMIT
Catches East Orange Officials
Mapping Again-Will Have to
Explain Action in Court.

William Martin, owner of the lunch
wagon that stood mex to the new
Masonic Temple in Main street, East
Orange, and who was refused permits
sion to move the wagon to a lot across
from fire headquarters, moved the
vehicle today without the necessary
permission.
The building department received a
tip today that Martin was going to
move the wagon so he could build a
brick structure next to Masonic
Temple. While making plans to try
and prevent the wagon from being
moved. Martin had a horse hitched to
the vehicle and it went down Main
street.
City Counsel Jerome d. Gedney told
the City Council it a no moral right
to allow the wagon TO be moved, as II
was a wooden structure n within the
fire limits, and for this reason the
Council could hardly allow a violation
of its ordinances by giving permission.
Martin has no license to conduct a
wagon at the present location. This rs
the second time the unch wagon has
got ahead of the city, first moving the
wagon into the city at night. The city
tried to get him TO move but he won
out in court, as it could not be proven
whether the wagon was moved in from
some other city.
A notice was sent to Martin for his
before Recorder Francis A.
Mott, jr., tomorrow morning at S:So.
Building Inspector Edward l. Condit
will also have a conference with City
Attorney Jerome D. Gedney regarding
a plan of action.
A policeman was stationed near the
wagon today and when he went to tele-
phone police headquarters regarding
waiting the wagon was moved

occasion to criticise and ridicule the

statements about something which ne
knows absolutely nothing about.
The first speaker was Bishop Lines,
who told of his associations with the
dead clergyman. The bishop said That
there were some clergymen~ gathered
to tell their experiences with Mr.. ABB
bolt. and he added hat he knew that
il Mr.. Abbott were alive he would want
the ceremonies simple. Bishop Lines
declared that the Rev. Abbott would
not want to be praised, but that he
would be glad to be remembered. The
bishop explained that in this strenuous
life we are apt to forget the dead.
Archdeacon Carter. of Montclair, told
of his acquaintance with the deceased
rector and mentioned his noble traits
of character. He never heard the Rev.
cir. Abbott walk along the street at
anybody. The Rev. Mr.. Hamilton was
the introduced by Bishop Lines, and
he said that it was a blessing TO see
Mr.. Abbott wal kalong h street at
all times. He declared that the late
venerable rector was not always COM
planning about his choir n his con-
gregation and that he was always
agreeable, The Rev. Hamilton then
depressed to air his utter depreciation
of the announced attitude of Mr.. Edi-
son.

SUPT. BALLARD To
LEAVE SCHOOLS
ANNOUNCES THAT HE WILL RE-
SIGN AT EXPIRATION OF HIS
PRESENT TERM
So Stated to the Board Of Educatior
Yesterday. He Will be Urged, How
ever, to Reconsider and Remain at
Head Of Schools.

AT meeting of the board of educa-
tion yesterday morning, Superinte1o,-
ent N. II. Ballard announced to the
members that it was his intention to
| resign at the expiration of his present
term, which expires in July, and while
he did not announce that he had def
nitely decided upon such action, he let
it be understood that he wouldn't ask
for reelection when a superintendent
for the next term will be elected.
AS Mr.. Ballard merely made this
statement for information to the
members of the beard, no action was
/ taken, but it was with genuine regret
that the announcement was received.
Mr.. Ballard has been at the head
Of the public schools in Glynn county
for more than eight years, and it is
due to his untiring efforts that the
schools have been brought to such
high standard. He has worked faltn-
fully in the interest of all matt ars
connected with the schools and has
succeeded in establishing and nam
tanning in Brunswick a public school
system which is second to none in the
state.
While Mr. Ballard did not give any
| particular reason fo- his proposed act
ion, he vas free to state that he had
! been cor 5idering the matter for sorre
/ time and that he leleved change
would be for the better of the schools.
| One man, he said should not remain
with public school system too long,
! but the matter is not viewed in snis
light by the board Of education and
| the people of the c:tv generally aud
a strong pressure win be trougnr 10
I bear upon Mr.. Ballard tc reconsider
his dec's sion and remain with The
! schools.
Supt Ballard is one of L ~ best
/ known educators in the state he is
! familiar with education matters IN ey-
/ cry way, has made an efficient srles
I intendent, and it is 10 be nope hat
pressure will be hroa"ht 10 hoa" g1Gn
him not 10 sever his connection with
the cal schools.
