GUARDS BLAMED
FOR JAIL ESCAPE
Freeholders, Refusing Sheriff's
Request, Say Not More, But
Better Men Are Needed.

A communication from Sheriff Mon
ahan. asking for four additional
guards for the county Jail, has been
unfavorably received by the freehold
ers' prison committee.
The sheriff stated that. after an in
vestigation into the recent escape of
prisoners. he was satisfied that more
guards were needed.
The members of the prison commit
tee were inclined to believe that the
escape of the prisoners was not due
to the lack of guards but to the in
competency of those o in charge.
There was no reason, Director
Evans declared. why the spoons from
which the jailbreakers fashioned the
keys should not have been missed by
the keepers.
Too much confidence was placed in
the prisoners" he said. The guards
were sc cocksure that none would
try to break out that they did not
take the trouble to keep a close
watch"
Freebooter Malta remarked that
there were now five guards, whereas
during Warden Steadman's regime
there were but three.
The sheriff and Warden McGuinness
will be requested to appear at the
next meeting of the committee at the
Jail September 3 to explain why more
men are needed.
No answer has been received from
the sheriff in response to a letter sent
to him by the committee. asking for
a list of supplies needed at the Jail
for the coming six months.
Our only purpose in making the
request" said Mr.. Malta. was to
ave as much expense to the county
as possible. I give warning now that
/ will not sign another of the sheriff's
bills. If he can get the necessary
three names all right. but l am
through signing them"

An Exact Science.
There has been secured for the trees
both on the streets and in the parks
scientific technical care. The inn
p~ortance of this cannot be overesti-
mated. The treatment of trees is ar
exact science. Expert planting, prun-
ing. mulching, spraying, etc, are alb
solutely necessary, not only to the
welfare and beauty but also to tht
very life of the rec
Then there is the educational worl
being carried on by the commission
In things arboricultural and horti-
cultural. The mere planting of trees
has been an education in itself, but In
addition to this the commission has
labored by all available means tc
awaken, encourage and stimulate ar
enlightened interest on the part of al
citizens. Almost everyone recognizes
the aesthetic value of trees, but com
p~aratively few stop to consider theiI
sanitary value, their realty value
their value in conserving and pro-
noting civic patriotism. This ths
commission has endeavored to bring
about through the circulation OF
pamphlets and literature describing
the work being done.
Mr.. Bannwart is one of the busiest
men in the city. His telephone bel
is tingling almost necessarily with
messages from citizens asking him to
plant a tree here IT to repair one
there, and his desk is flooded with
correspondence of the same nature
1t is a pretty difficult proposition tt
satisfy everybody, and in some cases
the requests are not well grounded
but, nevertheless, every case is in
vestigated. There is a squad of aboui
fifty men, under six foremen, to carry
on the work.

PATIENTS GAINING MORE
RESPECT FROM CITIZENS
They Are Steadily and Rap
idly Increasing in Number,
Beauty and Strength.

Did At ever occur to you that mani
mate life needs a doctor to look after
1t?
Did you know that there was a tree
doctor in this city, whose work is the
care OF the city's trees, to emedy
their ills and to operate on their
various parts in much the same way
that an ordinary doctor attends to a
patient?
That mar is Carl Bannwart, secre-
tary of the Shade Tree Commission.
whose Office Is in the City Hall. Just
as in the case of a regular doctor.
Mr.. Bannwart has office hours and
times when he Is out with his satchel
and instruments. caring for his
patients and ministering to their
needs.
While. doubtless. the majority of
people living In this city know that
there is such a municipal body as
the Shade Tree Commission, only a
few are familiar with the workings Of
that body. The purpose of the body.
1T is generally known. is to plant and
care for trees in the city. and this is
indeed a gigantic undertaking, When
| you take into consideration the fact
that there are more than $4,000 trees
In the city which must be cared for
and that new trees are being planted
continually, you will understand
something about the task Mr.. Bann-
wart, secretary of the commission.
and his corps of tree doctors have on
their hands.
visitSrs Are Pleased.
In this city the commission is start
ing upon the eighth year of its exist
ence. and a great deal has been &C
complished in the cultivation of trees
Visitors to this city have been almost
unanimous in declaring that nowhere
in the United States is such efficient
work being done in the care Of trees
as right here in Newark. The pur-
pose of the organization of the com
mission was. of course. to bring all
shade trees planted or growing in the
public highways under the exclusive
and absolute Jurisdiction Of a munich
pal department specially created to
| conserve them. promote their welfare
and add to their number by new
paintings. The management of the
city parks has also been added. By
the organization of the commission
the public status of the city's street
trees was at once raised. The knowl-
edge that a shade tree commission
was in existence in itself gave trees a
higher standing in public
The trees became the wards of the
| city. with the aegis of the city's law
to defend them.
The commission has planted 22,poo
trees, and 100 miles Of the city's
streets have been adorned with new
paintings. Not only that, but thou
sands of the older trees, which We're
planted prior to the inception of the
commission and which would other
wise have persisted through insect at

SYSTEMATIC TEACHING OF
HYGIENE is NECESSARY
Individual Attention to ChiId's Habits
Will Teach Cleanliness.

Systematic instruction in the princi-
pies of hygiene is necessary to keep
pupils from becoming lost in the null
titude of details. This instruction
should be founded on solid knowl-
edge of the structure and functions of
the different organs of the body and of
the principles governing metaboIism
and microbic infection. AS long as the
people of countries like the United
States perSistently follow hygienic fads
and fail to discriminate between ar
practitioners it is an exceedingly short
sighted practically that desires to ex-
clude from our school courses in by
giene those fundamentals Of anatomy
physiology and bacteriology which
throw the broad guiding lines through
the maze of hygienic practice.
Individual attention should be given
to the hygienic habits of the child.
Toothbrush clubs, fresh air clubs and
other organized hygienic efforts are
habits. Much can be done to develop
right attitude toward hygienic ques-
tons and TO fix the habit of properly
regulating local environment by good
hygienic conditions in the schoolroom
and in the home
The causes of sickness and the meth
cd Of preventing it should be taught
in spite of the objections Of those who
insist that it is wrong to instil into the
| childish mind ideas of disease. 1t is nor
the teaching of hygiene in schools. but
the presence of Illness and death in the
homes, that gives sensitive children
morbid ideas of disease and death
/ From Address by Professor John "
RitcAie at Hygiene Congress-.
