Commissioners Answer Critics
at Board Meeting.

Commissioners Thomas L. Burke and
Matthias Stratton, at a meeting of the
Fire Board, took occasion to reply to
some OF the criticisms about the man.

not one life had been lost in a fire.
through any neglect or carelessness by
the firemen, and no man In the depart
ment had ever been charged with
Sinking his duty.
1t was also said by the commissions
ers that whenever a fire occurs the
public expect the firemen to be at work
before the alarm has stopped ringing,
and nave the fire out in a ~twinkling,
forgetful of the fact that in many in

it has gained great Roadway.
Turn in the alarm without delay and
our men will put out the fire. said

EDUCATION BOARD HEAD
OPPOSES GOVERNOR FORT.
Bay0nne Official Doesn't Believe
in Bible in School.

BAYONNE. Jan. 6.-President of the
Boar of Education James Benny, an
elder in the Fifth Street Reformed
Church, is opposed to teaching the
Bible in the public schools. Mr.. Benny
made known his position in comment
ing on Governor Forts address before
the State Teachers Association in At
lantic City.
Mr.. Benny said:
"As to the Governors opinion on the
Importance of the study of the Bible ]
fully concur but | deem it impracti-
cable in q community like ours, where
the people are so greatly divided OF
religious questions, to introduce its
study in the public schools. 1 think ii
is better that the church continue to
attend to the instruction of the young
in the truths of the Bible; that will
enable each denomination to emphasize
its own Interpretation of the Scriptures,
m win avoid conflict of opinion.
II agree with the Governor that every
child should be well grounded in what
he terms the 'rudiments.' that is to say,
reading. writing, arithmetic, spelling
and geography, but ] do not concur In
his views on manual training.
I'm my Judgment a large proportion
of the boys Of The present generation
are likely to engage in some mechanical
pursuit. / believe a course in manual
training is a decided advantage to any
boy who may become a carpenter
plumber or bricklayer. or who may en-
gage in any of the other trades. l also
believe that it is very important thai
the girls siicald be taught to o and
sew. l have for some time thought
it would be we'll if a larger portion OF
the school moneys was used in the
training Of the boys and girls along in
dustrial lines
