ORANGE BEGINS To
SEE ADVANTAGES
OF TRUNK'sEWER
Imhoff Plant Advocates Likely
to Meet With Difficulty After
Last Nights Meeting.

1t Is the opinion in Orange today that
Montclair and East Orange will meet
with difficulty in the effort to get Or
ange in line for the Imhoff sewage dts
posal plan, after the meeting of the
sewer committee of Orange Common
Council last night, when the Passaio
Valley trunk sewer project was x
planned in detail by John 8. Gibson.
secretary of the Passaic Valley Sewer
age Commission, and Assistant Engi-
neer Taylor. The committee will prob
ably make some report on the matter
at the meeting of the council on Mon
day night.
Many hazy points were cleared up by
the explanation last night, and 1t was
brought out that Orange would be ia
vored by a reduction in the assessment
for the sewer because of a blunder in
the matter of assessing the Graves
estate, which enormously added to the
tax ratables of the city. This would
reduce the city's share of the cost
from nearly half a million dollars to
$41S, 900.
Mr.. Gibson spoke of the final notice
to get into line and said hat work
would be started promptly just as soon
as the first payment from municipal
tiles who are in concert shall arrive.
Mayor Arthur P. Seymour presided at
the meeting.
Orange has opposed in the past the
a-pportionment of cost on the basis OF
ratables rather than a taken by
the city sewage, and the first official
announcement that a reduction in the
city's apportionment had been author-
lied, while not changing the commit
teemen's original view, of the principle
of assessment, caused much favorable
comment.
Taking up Rudolph Hering's estl-
mate of an acre of ground for the I'm
hoff plant for each 5000 of popu-
lation. Mr.. Gibson told of the 140. 900
acres required for the 700,0 900 people the
joint sewer system would serve. Mr..
Taylor gave George w. Fuller, an as
sociate of Mr.. Herring for ten years.
but who has separated from the Mont
clair man, as authority for a doubt
as to the Imhoff SYSTEMS ability to do
service without odor. At Essen, Ger
many, there is no odor, he would con-
cede, but the same conditions would
not prevail here.

RAISES FUSS OVER
AWARD Of PRIZE
FOR PENMANSH|P

That he is the best penmon in the
Harrison public schools and should
have received first prize in the recent
competition conducted by Supervisor
of Penmanship Lawrence J.. Riordau
are the claims made by Edward Twar-
dus, a pupil OF School Nc. Q. Twardus
was awarded second prize in the COM
petition, and 1t is now becoming gen.
orally known that at the commence
ment exercises held more than a week
ago he refused to accept the testi-
monial offered for second prize.
Twardus va a pupil in the class
conducted by Mrs. Lucy M. Beach. For
months he had been practising in a
diligent manner in an endeavor to Sc
cure the gold medal to be given the
best writer. The lad was working for
more than the medal-hls father had
told him he would get S. if he carried
off first priz,. A few days prior to
commencement Mr.. Riordan collected
specimens of the work of the pupils.
The test was to be based on speed.
movement and legibility. The papers,
when collected, we're turned over tC
President Martin F. Desmond, Clerk
James a. Brophy and Commissioner
Thomas +. Lawless, of the school
board, for examination. 1t Is said that
Mr.. Desmond had declared the work oil
the Twardus boy to be the best of those
submitted. Mrs. Beach said today thai
she vas told that Mr.. Desmond was in
favor of awarding first prize to Twar-
dus. 1t appears, however, that the ma.
jority favored Miss Ella Davis and she
was given the medal.
Refuses Testimonial,
Twardus went to the commencement
but refused to go to the stage to gel
his testimonial when President Des-
mond called his name. A few days age
Twardus tried to get a position with .

told to get a diploma or bring an in.
structor. Twardus visited Mr.. Rior-
dams home and asked the latter tc
accompany him to Newark. Mr.. Rior'
dan would not go with the youth and
refused to give him the testimonial
which the boy had declined to take al
the commencement.
Twardus says he Is willing to take
the test with any pupil In the towr
and in the presence of the COMMITTEES
that made the awards recently. II an

said, land the medal should be mine
he concluded.
1t is likely that the school board will
look into the Twardus charges.
