A NEW HIGH ScHo0LIs
Discussion Brings Out Points Rsgard-
ing Crowding of Present Quarters

Discussion Brings Out Points Regard
ing Crowiing of Present Quarters
The question as to whether or not a
high school building should be erected
in Morristown is being agitated. 1t
has been persistently asserted, though
denied by the board Of education and
Superintendent Ira w. Travell, that
The present accommodations of the
high school in the third floor of the
Maple avenue school building are
crowded and inadequate.
The number of pupils in the high
school at present is 1928 of whom seven
ty are from other municipalities.
Every pupil now has desk.
u. S. District Attorney John B
Vreeland, counsel to the board OF edu-
cation, has advised that body that it
has no authority to conduct a school
for this section of the county or state
but is to provide school accommoda-
tions for Morristown children. With
the removal of the seventy pupils from
out-of-town, for whom there is now
plenty of room. the seating space Of
the high school would be greatly in
creased.
The M0rristown high school now
as pupils even from Somerset county
two coming TO Moristown from Bed
minister, while there are many from
Chester, Mendham and Passaic town
ships. More than a score come from
Hanover township and ib is asserted
that this township, the fifth in wealth
Of the taxing districts of the county
should build high school Of its owr
at either Whippany or Morris Plains
The point has been made that Nor
.ristown is centBr-for this section anc
thus should provide schools for the
section but the board of education
points out that if this view is accepted
the county should build the higf
school and maintain it and not tht
town.
The price charged to the outsid
ers for tuition is also under discus
sion. Morristown charges $40 for tht
high school and $50 per year for ths
elementary grades. It is thought
that this rate is too low, though Supt
Travell says it is not. Summit nov
cha rges 800 per year tuition to out
siders who enter its high school ant
$40 for the elementery grades. Thi
figure has been asserted by membe
of the Summit board of education t.
be below cost, which he asserts TO b.
slO8.14 for the high school scholar
Chatham lately raised its high schoo
rate from 1872 to $40.

INDIANS NEED
CHRISTIANITY
John W. Clark Says Govern
ment Is Doing Good Work
For the Red Men.
MISSION SCHOOLS ARE NEEDED


The October meeting of the Morris
town Indian association held in the
South Street Presbyterian church
Tuesday morning was one of speciai
interest.
The reports of the secretary and
treasurer were read, as we'll as the re-
port of Miss Charlotte Robertson,
chairman of the box committee. A
box valued at s5S is on its way to BLY,,
Klamath Mission, Oregon.
Miss Lord read the report Of the
nominating committee which was
adopted. 1t was as follows Honor
ary president, Mrs. w. r. Brooks
president, Miss Louise Stevenson ;
vice presidents, Mrs. W. r. Bennett,
Mrs. w. W. Barker, Miss Antoinette
Booraem, Mrs. Alexander MacColl,
Mrs. Philemon Sturges, Mrs. Ralph B.
Urmy secretary, Miss Sarah Buckley
treasurer, Miss Lucy N. Morris chair
man of box committee, Miss Charlotte
Robertson.
Miss Stevenson then introduced
John w. CLARK, Secretary of the Ma
tional Indian association. He gave a
thrilling account of the very recent
Indian Conference at M0honk. He
said, that without doubt. the princi-
pal address of the conference was
made by Henry Roe Cloud. the first
American Indian to graduate from
Yale university.
Henry Roe Clouds speech at Mo-
honk was In part as follows -
{" / rejoice to-day because the Indian
is getting back again to his face to
face struggle with nature. Years ago
the Indian had to get his living, and
he did 1t +; and at that time there we're
no lazy or shiftless indians and the
typical Indian then was better and a
stronger man than the typical Indian
Of to-day.
81 am glad that the Government is
trying to improve the personnel OF
the Indian service. i know one SUI
perintendent to-day, Albert ). Neal,
in wisconsin, whose life is continually
10 jeopardy because OF his efforts TO
lift up the Indian race.
~ think that perhaps one reason
why many Indians are lawleSS and de-
graded IS because they do not pay
taxes. Why should not a tax be put
upon their inherited lands ? They en-

MANY CLUBS BEING FORMED

That the Morristown public play

upon the work accomplished and shows
how manychildren have been instruct

Mems Christian association is about
to start a campaign for funds with
which to erect a new building on the
site secured at the corner Of Washing
ton street and Western avenue, the
board OF directors and board of trust
ees have decided to make extensive
changes and alterations In the present

ties for the work and still will not be
of a character to prevent the sale of
the present building should a chance
arise.
To care for the boys department
the present gymnasium will be fitted
up for the use of the youngsters. An
entrance will be made from DeHart
street, divorcing the boys from the

in from the hall to the gallery Of the
present gym, which will be fitted up
as a locker room.
General Secretary e. T. Honey will
have his Office over the present main
entrance stairway and windows will
be cut in the walls of the rooms, Civ
ing him facilities for seeing what is
going on in the second floor rooms,
The present billiard room and parlor
will be combined into one large recrea-
tion room, taking up the entire front
of the building. Reading room and
setting room will be in the present To-
cations.

THE YEARS
STREET WORK
Large Amount Of Work Done
Of a Permanent Character
at a Small Cost.
WORK WIDELY DISTRIBUTED

AS the street work for the season is
over, and taxpayers generally have a
very hazy idea OF what is being done
on the town streets, it may not be
amiss to give summary of street ope-
rations from the beginning of the
year. From it will be learned that the
road repairs have been distributed
throughout the town generally and
much of it is of a permanent charac-
ter, aside from the new road making.
There have been large additions
made to the towns equipment and
tools for road work, whereby consider
able money can be saved. 1t is curious
how everything done by the road de-
partment is misrepresented. For in
stance, it is reported that the wagons
used for spreading oil on the streets
cost $3.50 eacll, while in fact they cost
800, and this is but sample Of the
false reports.
The road summary follows
January, February and March,
Snow removed and the banks leveled
throughout the business section and
cutters cleaned. Ice on Washington

carted away. Steam roller put in SER
