We would offer this suggestion to
the members of the legislature who
are seriously thinking upon the tax
problem. The question is not wheth-
er the proposed change will raise
or decrease your personal tax or the
rate of taxation in your town. The
real question is whether the provi-
sions contained in the proposed tax
bill are right or wrong, whether they
will more equally distribute the
burdens of taxation or not. If they

ey was made, and deserve much credit
for their ilabors.
The Clerk reported that the State In

decided that itt would be useless to in

years budget However, it was ordered
that fire drills be organized lin all the
schools, and practieed twice a month.

Dear Sir:
We acknowledge receipt of your COM
munieation of the 9Th in relation to the
collection of two fares within the Bor-

for the public welfare. The Pleasant
vile Press is ever found in the forefront
in the battle for Pleasantville and her
people, As per our motto, Home First,
the World Afterwards we have thought
that while the sentiment is strong for
a big boost it would be well for the
borough's official newspaper to issue a
booster edition, which we propose to do
on Wednesday, April 3rd, with an at
tractive colored Easter cover. 1t is ex-
pected to have an unusually large cfrcu
lation, and it is our intention to make it
as great an advertisement for Pleasant
vile as the support accorded the enter>
prise will justify. We ask the support
and assistance of all our friends, and
offer a limited amount Of advertising

antee to do ours.

The $4,000 bond issue held by the
State of New Jersey has no provision
made for sinking fund, and hence the
necessity of asking for $1,000 this year
There is 81, 800 to the credit of these
bonds now in the First National Bank
of Pleasamtville, but as $500 of the
issue is payable in 1915, it was thought
wise by the Board to make additional
provision this year, to pay off the am
ou1lt when it falls due. Provision will
also have to be made i'm 1913 and 1914.
The schools are now overcrowded, so
that a general transfer of pupils was
authorized in School No. 2, where one
teacher has SO on the roll, while the
law only permits 40 to one teacher.
There is a class in the basement of the
new building at School No. |, and the
two class rooms of that building ane
both in use and one Of the small recita
tion rooms ON the second floor is being
used this year. In order to relieve the
congestion at School No l, it is propos-
ed to make certain alterations by remov-
ing two partitions on the. second floor,
thus throwing the four small recitation
rooms into two regular class rooms for
grammar grades, which would make
room for about 80 Seventh and Eighth
grade pupils.
No School has "a leaky roof and
needs painting badly, and the Board is
asking the voters for money to do this
work

The Simsboro correspondent of

has the following to say:
The Simsboro High School
closed on May 10, after one of
the most successful years in the
schools history. Under the
splendid management of Prof.
W. A. Bynum, the attendance in
creased, and the school work is
in a flourishing condition. The
new brick school building is be-
ing erected and through MIR. By
NUNS personal efforts, this
building has been secured for the
prosperous little town. Prof.
Bynum will not teach here next
year, but has accepted the prin-
cipalship of the Columbia Ap-
proved High School, at a SUBJ
stantially increased salary, and
Prof. Townsend, a very able and
intelligent man, has been elected
as principal here.
