Rev. F. @. Blanchard Is Re.
garded as Probable Choice
in East Orange.

Choice Of the presidents of the
Boards of Education of East Orange,
Orange and West Orange is expected
to be made without the sembbance
Of opposition when the bodies are re-

There has been no intimation of
who is 20 be the next president of
the East Orange board, but it is
understood that the members intend
selecting the Rev. F. @. Blanchard,
pastor of the Grove Street Congrega-

dent of the board last year. Al
Though he has only been a member
| of the board short time. the Rev.
Mr.. Blanchard is thoroughly familiar
with the school system, and his col
leagues are confident he is capable
of filling the position in an entirely
satisfactory manner.

that he will not accept another term
in that office, the belief is general

be- reelected president OF the West
Orange board. Stephen D. Riddle

position. but he has announced he is
not ambitious to assume the respon-
sibilitles of the Office.
Considerable interest is being mai
ifested over whether the reducing of
the boards to a membership of six
will in any way affect. the efficiency
of the bodies. There has been much
talk N the municipalities that the
reduction in the Orange and East
| Orange boards would cripple the

each board have declared that nine
men had all they could do to attend

the only inexperienced commissioner
in the three municipalities, but his

before he becomes thoroughly farnil-
lar with the workings of a school
system. lCt1f9 4
All the retiring members OF the
East Orange board Commissioners
Titus. Cadnlus and Wilson, have had
many years experience in school
work, and their knowledge of affairs
will be greatly missed by. the new
board Regret has been; expressed al
the severing of their connections, and
all the members of the new board
appreciate they will have to worl
very hard to maintain the high
efficiency of the board.
The retiring members of the Or

Mica Used for Decoration.

Large quantities of scrap mica-small
sheets and the waste from the manufae-
ture of sheet mica-are ground for diff
ferent uses. among which are the decora-
ton of wall paper and the manufacture
%: lubricants, fancy paints, and nodded
mica for electrical insulation, according
to the United States geological survey.
Ground mica applied to wall paper gives
a silvery ulster When mixed with
grease or oils finely ground mica forms
an excellent lubricant for aXles and other
bearings Mixed with shellac or special
compositions. ground mica Is nodded into
desired forms and is used in insulators
for trolley wires. Ground mica for cleo
trical insulation must be free from me
tallic minerals. Mica used for ubrica-
tion should be free from gritty matter.
For wall paper and brOcade paints a
ground mica with a high luster is re-
quired. and such luster Is best obtained
BY using a clean. light-colored mica AMI
grinding il under water. Coarsely
ground or bran mica Is used in in
dreasing quantities TO coat the surface Of
roofing material 10 prevent
the tar or other ingredients used in its
from sticking when the
sheets are rolled for shipping.
