Neqvark Provtdes for It's Child Army

It will attract pupils from all parts
of the State, but this year the pre-
ponderance of these will be the chill
dren of Newark residents.
OF the corps of principals, one re-
tirement, that of c. H. Gleason, is re-
corded. C. D. Brownell, of the Haw-
kins Street School. is transferred to
the Summer Avenue School.
The proposal of the Board of Edu-
cation to add gymnasiums and audi
forums to all schools in the city is
being carried out as fast as possible.
In the case of the Arlington Avenue
School these are completed. Those OF
the Burnet Street School WILL be fin
ished in three months. In the Gen.
trail Avenue School the gymnasium
and auditorium are completed.
For Defective Children.
One point of interest in the work
of the board is the provision for de-
fective and subnormal children. The
old German English institution in
Goes place has been set aside for
such classes, of which there will be
fifteen. Futher provision ALSO has
been made for tuberculous andeanae-
mic children.
In regard to the latter class of lit
tie ones 1t may be said that the par
ticular public schools of Newark set
apart for them prove not only their
mental salvation, but also hospitals
wherein their physical welfare Is de-
termined. It has been proved that
in these schools, where the generous
foresight of the city assures pure air
and nourishing food, the children i'm
prove perhaps more rapidly than they
would in a sanatorium. They receive
sustaining nutriment as soon as they
reach the class in the morning, and
at noon they have q lunch such, per-
haps, as some of them never have at
home. -
Liberal, Foresigh Policy.
But this Is only one point in the
work of the Newark Board Of Educa-
ton showing how liberal and far
sighted is it's policy with regard to
public instruction. Let any one read
the annual report of the board and
Judge for himself whether or not the
offspring of the people of Newark are
offered freely the benefits of an edu-
cation for the mind and fostering
care for the body.

A certain editor of the New York
Times formerly lived in a city in
Massachusetts, celebrated for the ex-
cellence of its schools. His children
were Just at the age when he felt
that 1t would be a fatal Glow to them
mentally to interrupt their studies.
He had nearly decided to leave them
In Massachusetts,, hard as 1t was to be
separated from them, when a friend
advised him that the schools of New
Jersey were not inferior, indeed, in
some important particulars, were SUI
perior to those of Massachusetts.
The editor took the position Of
fered him In New York and bought a
homo in Passaic, where he entered
his children in the public schools.
asked him not long afterwards
about the progress of his boys. His
answer was enthusiastic.
why" he said. they are doing
better than they did in s.. I cannot
practise of the New Jersey schools"
1t is sufficient to say that Newark
more than upholds the honor of the
State in proving that such an I'M
sought, sincere tribute is based on
truth
Nearly Two Thousand Teachers.
Not far short of 1000 is the number
of teachers in Newark and 1t is safe
to say that there is not one of them
who is not proud to be able to say
that in no city In the limited States
is there a better system of public
education or a wiser, more thoughtful
policy on the part of the municipal
administration whose duty 1t is to
provide for nearly 10000 children.
In nothing is the precision of the
school authorities of Newark more
apparent than in the efforts to beau
tify the spaces around the schools
of the city; and. If one takes some
pains to observe the condition of
property surrounding the schools it
will be seen that where the aesthetic
influence prevails in the school
grounds or frontage its effect is
manifest among neighboring owners.
The beautiful city hall, the home of
the Board of Education, is itself an
incentive to the guardians of the
schools to see to 1t that their
premises are not less inviting than
the centre from which comes their
source of existence.

In few days, to be exact, on the
Sth day of September, Newarks pub
lie schools will open. The great army
of pupils Is at this vhry moment pre-
pairing to return to the school task
which modern thought and care nave
made a delight where formerly 1t
was a dreaded burden.
And Newark has reason to be proud
of the stately buildings which she has
reared to house her children. But
faster than these can be built the tide
of population swells. The ranks of
the little ones press on, ever eager
for knowledge which the city Is will
ing to give them. but these ranks
form in such serried multitudes that
the problem to find training ground
for them grows more and more diff
cult to solve.
Two Thousand Unprovided For.
This year, for instance, notwith-
standing the provision of the Board
of Education, there will be at least
two thousand children who must, ser
force, be satisfied with half-time
classes. Only one new elementary
school is complete. In the Miller
Strset School seventeen rooms and a
gymnasium have been added. Ad-
QltlOnS ana cnanBeS III OtueTb are III
complete. Yet the work is going on
as fast as the builders can do 1t.
The new South Side High School
will be ready late in September. This
is on the site of the old Normal
School in Washington street. the first
high school in the city. In the East
Side High School a new principal will
be in charge. This Is Eli Pickwick,
jr. It is proposed that this shall be
the technical training school OF the
city. Mr.. Pickwick has been head of
the Normal Training School since
1898, and is, in fact. the founder of
training school work In Newark.
The principal in the new high school
on the east side will be T. F. Ken
nedy.
To the Newton Street School an ad-
dition of fifteen rooms is nearly COM
plete. When all the work Is done on
this school 1t will be two-thirds new.
State Normal School.
The new State Normal School, ceded
to the commonwealth by the city, has
been described in the Evening Star.

Two Women Climb Mount
Washington in Night Time

BRETON WOODS, N. H, Aug. 30.
Climbing to the summit of Mount
Washington over the dangerous tres
tile Of the mountain railway in the
darkness. Mrs. w. G. Hanford and
Mrs Beatrice Recknadel. OF New
York, accomplished a feat never be-
fore undertaken. 1t is said. by a
woman. The ascent was made as the
result OF a wager.
With high wind blowing and no
lights to guide them. the task of the
climbers in crossing over the lofty
Jacobs's Ladder trestle was regarded
as extremely perilous. The two
women reached the mountain top
about 10 o'clock, having covered the
distance of five miles in four hours
and half.
