that the Automobile club especially.

save in tires alone. probably So 10 So
on every dollar put into it.
1T does seem as though with such
large number of machines here, we
ought to be able to put our club in
good order. and do some very effective
road work If we can raise the money,

done.
Il have not done anything this year
as yet, for the simple reason that
have no money to spend, and no au-
thOrity to contract any debts. but Wits
the action of the Commercial club last
evening, our committee will immedi-
ately get busy and if backed up by
the Automobile club, we will endeavor

Mr. Palmer was present at the meet
ing and supplemented his letter with
few remarks. His idea in the letter
was to outline reasonable plan. he
wished it understood that he did not
favor dragging the roads without co
operation FROM the towns.
The report of Treasurer Bangertcr
showed treasury balance of only
$5.9l, the receipts having been $2525C
and the disbursements $24G.G5 during
the year. Because annual membership
fees are now due il is expected that
the club finances will be in good shape
within few days.

CLOSE HOSPITAL ROAD.

Board of Managers Find Action Neces-
sary Because OF Danger to Patients.
Finding that the lives of patients
were endangered by automobilists u.s.
ing road running around the south
wing of the state hospital for the in
sane at Morris Plains the board of
managers of the hospital have ordered
it closed. The south wing is that
housing the women patients in the
main building and the grounds on
that side of the building are much
used by the patients, The private
road on the hospital grounds runs
from the main drive around the end
of the building to the Mt. Freedom
road. Patients wishing to use the
lawns were compelled to cross this
road.
Residents of Mackeralville on the
Mt. Freedom road complained bitterly
because the road was closed, asserting
that it shut them off from access to
the trolley unless they walked to Nor
ris Plains. They presented petition
to the board of managers asking that
the road be reopened. The managers
took the ground that the hospital was
there for the patients and not as a
convenience for people living in the
neighboEhood but instructed DR.. Brit
ton D. Evans, the medical director.
and Orlando M. Bowen, the warden.
to issue passes to such persons as
might have actual use for the thorough
fare.
The hospital at Morris Plains is al
most the only one of it's kind which
has not surrounded it's grounds with a
high fence, admitting within only
those having business there. For
years the hospital grounds have been
open to visitors and are yet but the
board of managers will not permit any
annoyance to the patients by thought
less persons and have engaged a police
officer to see that proper decorum is
observed on the grounds.

THE SCHOOL LAWS.

County Supt. Hulsart Has Issued
Statement to Boards of Education.
County Superintendent of Schools
J. Howard Hulsart has received the
following notice regarding the school
laws to the boards of education
throughout the county =
To Boards of Education of Morris
County:
The following are the provisions OF
the state school law governing the ad-
mission and attendance of pupils:
To regularly organized kindergarten
schools or departments pupils shall be
admitted between the ages of four and
seven years. Nochild under the age
of five years shall be admitted to any
public school except to regularly or
ganized kindergarten school or depart
ment. Pupils may continue to attend
a public school until twenty years of
age.
Children who shall have never at
tended any school may be admitted to
public school during the first ten
days of the fall term, the first five
days of January and the first five days
Of April, and at no other time except
by majority vote of all the members
Of the board Of education.
The compulsory schools law provides
that child must regularly attend
school, or receive equivalent instruc-
tion elsewheres from seven to seven
teen years of age, unless the regular
grammar school course has been COM
pleted, in which case compulsory at
tendance ends at fifteen years Of age,
provided the pupil after leaving school
is regularly employed in useful oc-
cupation. The parent, guardian or
other person having control Of child
is made responsible for the child'S
regular attendance at school during
the compulsory school age.
Any child above the age OF fourteen
years who submits satisfactory evil
dence to the board of education that
1t is necessary to be employed in some
occupation or service may be granted
certificate Of exemption from at
tendance, which exemption shall con-
tinue only so long as the child shall be
regularly employed. BY this provision
it is not intended that a child over
fourteen years Of age may remain out
Of school at will, but that application
for permission shall be formally made
to the board Of education who shall
judge as to it's necessity and may or
may not grant the desired exemption.

HEARD AND SEEN AROUND THE
GREEN.

Sergeant John j. Morrison has re-
ceived report of the chief of police
Of Portland, Me. The total number
of arrests last year were 4, ,1S4. of which
1902 were drunks and disorderlys.

ber of arrests of 674 of which 2S8 were

tion. In Portland the per centage
was about seveDty-fiye while in Nor
ristown it was about forty three. And
yet, Maine is a prohibition state.
The Rev. James NJ. Buckley, d. D.,
of the Christian Advocate tells of
an incident which occurred recently.
1T seems that a gentleman had called
three times at DR.. Buckley's office
without finding him in. The fourth
visit DR.. Buckley was at his desk.
The gentleman demonstrated with the
editor a5outihis absence from his chair
and DIR. Buckley asked him.
How many times were you here
without seeing me 2"
" Three
"And you found me the fourth
time ~
4" Yes. .
Now just suppose while you were
away from your office looking for me
some man visited there in an effort to
locate you, now he would not only
have failed TO find you three times
but he may be looking for you now"
"BubI wanted to see you on busi-
ness
Very good, said Mr.. Buckley, my
dear sir, believe i'll being where my
presence is required the most"
That one property owner on Madi-
son avenue thinks that the space or
dinarily used for sidewalk should
not be profaned by the feet of men
but must be held sacred to the growth
Of grass and shrubbery, is evidenced
by the fact that barriers have been
erected, several feet apart, effectually
blocking the walk for pedestrian uses.
Those who walk must either keep to
the opposite side of the road or else
walk in the street.

road brakeman, is showing his friends

The coin is in excellent condition and
is about the size of the old two cent

Friends of a local ball player are
laughing over an incident which hap
pened him recently in local thirst
dispensary. The young man had
taken two Of his lady friends in the
place to regale them with refresh
ments. He called for chocolate
puffs." The colored boy behind the
counter set himself to mixing the con-
coction when he suddenly looked up
and asked: b
Want a yaig in it? Cost you twen-
ty-five cents just the same"
He was told to Ego the limit" by
the embarrassed swain.
