Mount Holly Lodge of Moose win elect
officers at its meeting tonight.
Phil Reubens, the flexible monologist,
will appear at the opera house tonight.
Miss Amanda Cheeks, who has been
conducting candy store on Buttonwood
street, has all arrangements made to be-
come an inmate of the Home for Aged
Women at Burlington, to which place she
will remove her effects to-day. She will
be succeeded In business by Mrs. Mincer.
School Election.
Next Tuesday evening will occur the
annual school meeting for the cleo
ton of members of the Board of Edu-
cation and to appropriate money with
which to conduct the schools for the
ensuing year. The terms of Samuel A.
Atkinson, DR.. R. c. Darlington and Joseph
G. Kingdom expire this year and they
have all decided that they have served
a sufficient length of time. In this
decision each one is positive and there
must be three new men chosen to fill the
vacancies. Several names have been sug-
gested. We give those we have heard,
but cannot say that all are positively
candidates. They are Richard B. Eckman,
DR.. c. E. Lord, Francis c. Naylor and
John T. Murphy. These gentlemen have
openly made announcement of their can
didacY. Others have been mentioned but
as they have not personally announced
their candidacy we cannot speak for them.
The names of two ladies have been
mentioned In connection with this office
and Mrs. r. P. Holeman and Mrs. Anna
Pumyea have both signified their intention
of being candidates There are many argu-
ments being used for electing two women
on the Board of Education One lady is said
to have remarked that she was willing to
enter the contest but did not have any
idea that she would be elected That is
not the right way to 60 about it. If 1t is
thought best to have female representa-
ton the candidate who enters the race
should make every effort to be elected as
1t never aids cause for candidate to go
in Just for the sake of being knocked
down.
There seems to be a misapprehension
about my position In the matter of being
a candidate for reelection to the Board Of
Education. There need not be any doubt
on the question. / am not a candidate
in any sense of the word. 1t has been
rumored that ballots might be cast for
me with the idea that / would receive
majority vote. This will not do. The
voter who thus casts his ballot will
lose his vote. l declined reelection In
good faith and others have entered the
race in the same spirit. 1t would not be |
fair to them nor honorable in me to accept |
the office If / were to get every vote cast
which | am not vain enough to think !
would happen. nor am foolish enough !
to suppose that would poll even a sufi- |
cient number of votes to continue me on |
the Board. / think this makes the situa-
ton plain. cannot put 1t any stronger. |!
intend to retire from the Board.

An Important Order.

Difficulty has been experienced by rail-
road passengers from time to time In
learning the causes of delays to trains on
which they were travelling. In order to
remove this source of irritation, the Penn
sYlvania Railroad has issued instructions
to all conductors of passengers trains that
when traffic is interrupted trainmen shall
pass Immediately through their trains and
freely announce the conditions, advising
passengers without reservation the reason
for the delay, and, if necessary, the best
means OF proceeding on their journey.
When train is disabled at or near a
station, trainmen are to notify the pas
sengers as to cause and probable extent of
the delay in order that they may continue
on their journey, or return on an AVAIL
able train. If passengers desire to com
municate with their friends from the sta
ton they are to be accorded promptly the
use of the telephone or telegraph.
Similar instructions have been given to
station agents to post on their bulletin
boards, or in other conspicuous places in
their stations, notice giving the location
of whatever obstruction to traffic is taking
place, the probable length of delay, and
any other information In their possession,
as to the cause and extent of the difficulty.
The management of the Pennsylvania
Railroad has for some years made public
full details of accidents. 1t realizes, how
ever, that passengers upon trains or pas
sengers waiting at stations for the arrival
or departure of trains, have a right to
prompt information as to the cause and
details of any delays which may take place
either to the train on which they are
travelling, or that for which they may be
waiting. 1t also realizes that passengers
should have every opportunity to allay
unnecessary anxiety on the part of friends
or families, due to train delays or accident.

Women Members.
,ditor Of THE News.

Editor of THE News:
learn with much regret that Messrs.
Atkinson, Darlington and Kingdom have
decided not to accept reelection to men,
bership In the Board of Education. after
their many years of service on the Board
and this indeed is a loss to our whole
school system; but their withdrawal has
one advantage, as 1t gives to the people of
this town the opportunity of electing
women to the Board membership.
1t is an opportunity for good and an adj
vance In our educational cause for many
reasons.
In our schools we have about twenty
i've women teachers and about one hun
dred girls who are coming into woman
hood and their care Is left entirely to a
male Board of Education and Supervising
Principal and naturally there cannot be
that freedom of communication that Is
best for their moral and physical welfare.
Every man knows that 1t is our mothers
watchful care and observation that makes
our homes and brings to society that which
is best; and 1t is the patience, industry and
application OF the women of our land that
makes 1t the best place In the world to
live Applied to our schools there should
be on our Board of Education a woman
whose duty 1t should be to look into the
moral, physical and sanitary conditions
surrounding our teachers and girl pupils
and who could come into the Board meet
ings and present In an official and intelli-
gent way such matters as it has been i'm
possible to consider In a proper manner
because there has been no way to hear of
them without infringing on the modesty
of young womanhood. In the public life
of to-day there is no place where the
women OF our land can do so much good
as In our schools In aiding to form and de-
tie rhine the character of our boys and
girls
Again, there should be woman whose
knowledge and inclination would lead
her to give particular attention to the
course of study In our schools, to aid In
the selection of proper and capable teach
ers and bring to the school that womanly
intuition for good and advancement that
we all desire.
The place In our civilization that woman
is the mainstaY is our homes and as our
schools are a part of our home life then
there is every reason why woman should
take her part in the schools of TODAY not
only as teachers but as managers for the
public good.
Now let every man who believes that
his mother was or is the best woman on
earth and that the mothers of today are
the strength or life of our whole existence,
come out to the election on March 18th
and give his vote for two women for
membership on our Board of Education
and In that way pay honor to the sex and
give that aid to our children that only q
woman can give.

Which bik1C O AnA sc nun DcI VI m6mD6IS OF
Mount Holly Lodge of Elks attended and
held their service. He was inferred at
Morrisville, Pa, yesterday, the place of
his birth.
The members of Company E, of Mount
Holly. who participated in the Inaugural
ton of President Wilson, arrived home on
Wednesday afternoon. While they en-
joyed the outing. they were not very en-
thusiastic over the trip because Of the
long march given them, vexations. delays
and short rations furnished. On leaving
the Camden armory for the terminal, Ed.
ward Powell slipped one foot and tripped
with the other over the railroad track,
which threw him violently. A projection
on his rifle struck him In the jaw and the
bsyonet cut cash back of his right ear.
He was taken to Cooper hospital, but re-
fusing to let surgeon sew up the wound,
the injury was dressed and the young man
proceeded on to Washington.
Beginning yesterd sy the Public Service
Railway Company will no longer operate
club cars to any of the suburbs, as has
been the custom for several years. In all
the cars leaving Camden Sunday the com
pany had notices posted in conspicuous
places addressed to the members of the
Moorestown Rapid Transit Club and the
Merchantville Rapid Transit Club declar.
ing that the highest courts had decided
that the cars had been operated unlawfullly
and 1t became necessary that they be dis
continued. The full text of this decision
has not been published, and at first glance
it would appear as If 1t will be impossible
to run special cars for any purpose here
after. Sunday schools and other organi
cations have been In the habit of charter
ing cars to run to the place of destination
without stopping, but the decision abov,
quoted would seem to mean that suct
! cars must make regular stops hereafter.
