Trade School in Mount Holly

The committee that was appointed by
the Board of Education of the Township
of Northampton to confer with Murrell
Dobbins on the subject of establishing
trade school In this county, had con-
ference with that gentleman last week.
As was outlined in this paper Mr. Dob
bins idea is to give the sum of $4,000 for
the establishment of school to be devoted
to training young men in trades. He
thinks that boys should be given more
than an education that will fit them for
CLERICAL work.
Mr.. Dobbins would establish a school
that will be under the charge of the school
authorities where it may be placed. His
idea is to have it conducted day and
evening. and to be open to all who may
desire to attend and the only string that
he puts to his offer Is that nonresident
pupils shall not be charged for tuition.
Should this offer of $1,000 be accepted
by this township and approved by Mr..
Dobbins, the state would give an addition
al $4,000 and that would go a great way
towards fitting up fine school.
William G. Ash, superintendent of the
Philadelphia Trade School, came to
Mount Holly Wednesday, and looked over
the High School building. He thinks we
are admirably equipped for the purpose
and he will SO report to Mr.. Dobbins.
The Board of Education of this township
at its meeting Thursday evening took
steps looking towards the completion of
the matter and it is to be hoped that the
school will be located here.

him by starting him In business of SOM
kind. She gave him watch and chain
cuff buttons and other articles. Hearing
of the Burlington newspaper route being
for sale, she bought it and offered 1t tC
defendant as gift. He refused to accept
1t as present. but said he would take Il
as loan and pay back the cost, which
was acceptable to her Since then Wark-
man sent her check for 800 on account
of the principal and another for $82 for
interest on the purchase price.
George w. Adds, news agent at Bever-
ly, made the arrangements for the sale of
the Burlington agency, at the request of
Miss Umstead. She said she wanted the
business for Warkman, as gift.
George Mundy, circulation manager af
the Philadelphia Inquirer, said the agree
ment for the sale of the route was made
by him and was made in the name of the
Burlington News Agency at the request of
Miss Umstead. Witness handed the COM
pleted agreement to Miss Umstead, and
she tore 1t up.
The defendants testimony was along
the line of Mr.. Watts opening address.
Warkman commended that Miss Umstead
wanted to make him present of the BUSH
ness but that he refused to take the money
except as a loan. He said he sent her two
checks of $500 each for payment on the
principal of the debt, and four checks for
the payment of interest on the principal
One check for principal and one for inter-
est came through the banks as having been
paid. The others never had been deposit
ed by Miss Umstead.
On July 4, 1919, defendant said Miss
Umstead was at his house and an argu-
ment started between her and Mrs Wark-
man relative to disciplining his children.
Hot words ensued, and defendant said this
was the beginning of the trouble that led
to his arrest.
On cross-examination 1t developed that
the checks sent to Miss Umstead that she
did not use were dated after the trouble
had started, when she had decided to
prosecute him.
At the Inclusion of the evidence Judge
Horner instructed the jury to return a
verdict of not guilty, as there had been
no evidence of any crime having been
committed.
