school building at Lambertvllle, N. j.
would say that while we cannot dispute
the fact that lot situated on higher
level would be very much better from
every point OF view than the one already
selected, we do not see where you
would find such one in I.ambertvllle
except on the hill, the objections to which
have been stated so often as to be un-
nessary of repetition.
With its advantages as regards
location in relation to the school
population, we believe that the lot is
ideal. Of course it will need filling
but any school lot used by children as
playground should have a certain
amount of filling of clean cinders or
ashes so that the same will dry as
rapidly as possible after rain.
AS regards the foundations, you need
have no fear We have successfully
met conditions considerably worse than
those we expect to find on your build
ing. We refer particularly to ST. Mary's
School in Trenton, one corner OF which
is built over the bed of Petty's Run.
1t was necessary to excavate to depth
of approximately 100 below the cellar
floor through soft blue clay before a
stratum of bearing gravel was reached
the men working in water constantly
while digging. The same was true OF
the foundation walls of the last addition
to the Cadwalader School where a
spring was encountered. In neither
case was there any subsequent settle
ment.
The Jefferson School on the corner,
of Southland and Brunswick Avenues
| was built on low lot situated some
what like yours with the additional dis
advantage OF soft clay. This lot was
filled with ashes and cinders and is now
and ideal playground being dry at all
seasons of the year. We anticipate no
trouble with your building because we
know that We will undoubtly find a
good stratum of gravel within short dis
lance OF the natural earth now covered
with ash filling.
There is one feature of the discussion
which should not be overlooked and
that is the fact that you will convert
which is now practically piece of
waste land into beauty spot of value.

suits in primary reading exceeded the
expectation of the Committee and they
feel that the expense of the change of
system is more than justified. In the
upper primary, grammar and High
School grades, concentration of the
pupils during the study periods and
the character oftheir recitations indicate
that the ''no home work. experiment
is bringing desirable results. The ap-
paratus in the physics department and
pencil boards in the lower grades,
made by High School boys show the
interest and demand for practical manual
training. The work of the teachers
throughout the city is on higher plane.
In recognition of this the committee
would urge on the Board the early con-
sideration of scheme of salary increase
based on efficiency. In closing this
final report of the year, the committee
desire to express their great confidence
in the policies of the Supervising Princi-
pal and his methods Of executing them.

The Board does further affirm its belle
that the recent popular election held In
the city strengthens the Board IN Its
position in that only three hundred
and fitty-three legal (male) votes were
recorded againstit choice. This elect
| ion was held upon the order OF Common
Council to give the voters chance to
express themselves as between hill site
and the site selected by the Board. The
number OF votes stated, the Board be-
lieves, probably represents all the senti-
ment against the action of the Board
and the decision to so vote was pro-
baby reached without all the necessary
facts being in the possession of all these
voters which would enable them to form
proper judgment. The large number
of voters having retrained from voting
would seem to indicate that they pre-
fsrred to let the matter rest entirely
with the Board of Education where the
responsibility belongs. The Board be-
leves its letter to the Public under date
of December a3, published as soon as
knowledge was had concerning the pro-
posed election, and which letter had
promiscious distribution, containing
a succinct account OF matters which
aided the Board in its determination
was material factor in assisting many
citizens to refrain from voting and allow
the whole matter to rest with the Board
where the responsibility is laid by the
authorities and the law.
The Communications from the County
Supt. relative to the election of a
Custodian and from the State Depart
