New Industrial School Planned.

Early opening of trade school for Bur-
lington county youths is assured by the
offer announced on Wednesday, of Muir
rell Dobbins, city treasurer of Philadelphia
and well-kLown philanthropist, to donate
the sum $1,000 toward the establishment
of such an institution. The offer was made
to the Burlington county educational au-
thorities as the result of campaign in
stituted less than six months ago by the
executive committee of the County Young
Mems Christian Association following the
discovery that thousands of boys have
been leaving country schools with little or
no direct knowledge of any trade they
might wish to follow.
AT recent session of the County Board
of Agriculture Otis B. Read, county
secretary of the Y. NJ G. A., voiced
the sentiment of association leaders for
the need of trade schools and agricultural
courses in high schools. The Board of
Education named committee, including
County Prosecutor Samuel A. Atkinson,
of Mount Holly; James Mccormick, of Bur-
lington township, and Herman A. Stees,
county superintendent of education, to In
vestigate the subject in cooperation with
William F. Overman, of Moorestown;
Frank w. Thacher, of Florence, and Sec
rotary Read, representing the Y. M. G. A.
This joint committee last week made an
inspection of the Philadelphia trades
schools, established five years ago by Mr.
Dobbins and at which more than 1000
students are now enrolled Impressed
with the practical value of such instruc-
ton, members of the committee were pre-
pairing to take up plans for financing the
opening of county trades school when
Mr.. Dobbins, former Burlington county
boy, surprised them with the offer of SIS, 900
towards the establishment of a school
In his native county Under New Jersey
laws, sum equal to all private subscrip-
tions for trades schools is available from
the state treasury, thus insuring at least
O,OOO for the initial expenses. So wide
spread is the interest In the movement.
however, that it is believed there will be
other large subscriptions for tie enter
prise.
The establishment of this school will
benefit hundreds of boys throughout the
country, who on the completion of their
school course will find themselves skilled
mechanics. thus enabling them to take up
life's battle with greater chances of sue
cess than has been the case in the past
In many cases pupils have been compelled
to relinquish their studies before entering
high school, in order to fit themselves to
earn livelihood

Ever since l put in my new lighting
plant on October 9Th last, my business has
increased $50 per week. The average
cost of my new lighting has been "a cents
per day for $500 candle power. With the
public gas or electric it formerly cost me
as cents per day for 500 candle power
Under the old system it cost me 1875 fol
nantes and $3.50 for globes. From
October to March I, with the new sys
tenn, it cost me $I.5o for mantles and
nothing for globes, which we do not use,
making another saving of Bats. Add tc
this the saving Of II cents day and You
will save IS cents day, on plant costing
SIPS You will save $56.95 in one year
which is equivalent to depositing $Iooc
