a matter that perhaps would be well
to bring to the attention of those
who are carting the blhulithic mix
ture from Perth Amboy for the paw
ing of Broadway. There are several
teams that are too light for the pull
ling of the heavy loads up the long
incline from the P. r. R. tunnel to
Main street, and the parties driving
these teams, OF their owners must
see that the loads are lighter, or a
team extra must be at the foot of
the incline, or S. P. C. A. agents
will have them before a magistrate
upon a complaint for cruelty to ami
mails. A word on this line should
be sufficient, as overlooking to come
up this incline will not be tolerated.

HAVE SESSION
FOR HALF DAY
Odd Fellows Hall Not Suita-
BILE for School Purposes.
ypeeial 10 the EVENING News,

Spec4dI 30 fhe NE va,
South Amboy, August 31.-There
were present at the adjourned meet
ing OF the Board of Education last
evening Messrs. Oliver, Davis, Pearse,
Sutliff and Wyckoff, also Supervisor
Fitch.
Secretary read letter from the Paul
Automatic Clock Co., exploiting their
clock system as adapted to school
work. 1t was received and placed on
file.
Bill of r. Bowling for carting and
freight amounting to $500 was re-
ferred to the finance committee and
later ordered paid.
Mr.. Davis reported that at their
meeting Tuesday evening the Odd
Fellows Lodge had let with their
Board of Trustees the renting of the
hall for school purposes, that after
comforting with various members of
the trustees he thought he was safe
in saying that the hall could be Sc
cured for $45 per month. Prof.
Fitch stated he had gone over the
building and as he interprets the law
he thought he would be laying him
self liable as supervising principal
to recommend placing the children in
the building and the board would
be laying themselves liable also as
there are no fire escapes and there is
but n stairway and that a wooden
stairway. He had looked over the
toilets and it would be necessary for
a plumber to overhaul them. He
estimated it would cost from $500
to $1,000 to place the building in
shape for occupancy. Prof. Fitch
recommended that the board not rent
the hall, but that half time be adopt
ed in the schools which would admit
of putting in the full required time.
This recommendation was discussed
at some length and finally Mr.. Oliver
we adopt the Copenhagen system
with the opening of the schools Sep
TENDER 8, viz: Opening at 500 a. NJ.
closing at noon, opening at 1890 p
m. and closing at 4:30 p. M. Schools
Nos. / and 2 alternating weekly
Motion carried.
Prof. Fitch called attention to the
appropriation made of $3.50 for man
ual training and stated that when
first presenting thfs to the state
board they replied the course as pre-
sented hardly warranted an equal
appropriation by the state; he stated
he had finally secured an interview
with Mr.. Kendall and presented the
course as revised by himself and Miss
Fulton and that 1t now met with ap-
prevail. Prof. Fitch suggested that
the necessary manual training bench.
es be secured and placed In the base
ment of the new portion of school
No. 1 and a class be started with the
opening of school with Miss Fulton
in charge. The matter was very thor
oughly discussed, some being rather
doubtful whether it was wise to pro.
coed with the matter. 1t was finally
decided that theb GARD should &C
ahead and arrange for this course
and the following motion as offered
by Mr.. Oliver was adopted: THAT
Prof. Fitch and Miss Fulton present
their list Of manual training supplies
to the supply committe and that the
supply committee be empowered to
order what In their Judgment is nee
essary, complying with the manual
and industrial training fund as pass
ed by the School Board of Estimate
with an equal amount from the state,
being a total of $500.
