Head of Board Of Education AS
serts City Is Able to Raise
Needed Funds.

The movement for new high schools
gained impetus Saturday when pub
Iic-spirited citizens turned with inter
est toward the plan as advocated by
Colonel Walter r. Daley. president Of
the Board OF Education, in his two
addresses at the graduation exercises
of the Boys and Girls High Schools,
in which ne urged a s5,00O,OOO bond
issue by the city of Atlanta. $4,000, 900
for the express purpose Of building
high schools.
There is not an adequate high
school in the entire city of Atlanta.
It's up 20 the people, and time City
Councilmen are urged TO wake up
and do their duty. Atlanta has a
credit upon which any city govern
ment could borrow 100000. declared
Colonel Daley, president of the Board
of Education, Friday night when he
presented high school diplomas to 81
young Americans.
The current revenue from taxa
tion," said Colonel Daley, lis not suf-
hcieut to care for the maintenance
Of the high schools. and it's not suf-
ficient 20 take care of the current ex-
pense Of the other important depart
ments
Asks 100000 for Schools.
Atlanta citizens should see that
city officials work for d S., 200. 600
bond issue. and Of that amount, as
president Of the Board Of Education
want TO ask for 100000 for the
purpose Of erecting adequate and
abundant plants for high school stu
dents. The remainder of the money
from such a bond issue should go to
the other departments. We need ad-
ditional grammar schools and many
improvements. All this is Because At
lanta is growing so rapidly, and yet
people who are not in constant touch
with these matters are prone to dis
regard them"
The graduating exercises OF the
Boys High School in the Grand Op-
era House were more than ordinarily
impressive, and members Of the fac
ulty said they indicated that young
men are thinking deeply and are TAX
ing an interest in matters which ten
years ago the average high school
graduate had absolutely no concep-

Improvements to liumanes' Quarters
Are Now Under Way.

The work of widening the doorway
of Humane Engine company's house
to accommodate the new Robinson
automobile pumping engine began
Thursday. James j. Lyons has the con-
tract While the work is under way
the companys apparatus is being
housed in the Resolute Hook and
Ladder company's annex The old
doorway allowed just eight inches
clearance for the apparatus. The ma
chine is seventy y-eight inches wide.
The Humanes' old steamer has been
placed behind the auto truck and the
heater now in the Humanes' house
will be moved over to the truck
house SO as to keep the water in
the boiler hot in case the use Of
the steamer is demanded.
While William w. Ridge is the

COURT KILLS PASS GRAFT.
Hundreds of Jersey Employees Now
Must Pay Fare.

Several hundred employees of the
state of New Jersey, who now travel
on free passes, in the future will
have to pay their fare, under a de-
cision of the supreme court Monday,
reversing finding of the public
utility commission involving free
transportation of certain state en-
ployes over the Laekawanna railroad
system. In 1911 the general railroad
act was amended so as to give mem
bers of the water commission free
transportation.
The Lackawanna refused to honor
the passes issued under this amend
mont and instituted the test case,
which it won Monday. In the opinion
Justice Garrison said
Once eliminate the element OF pub
lie policy as the legal justification
and nothing is left but the bare fact
that the subjects of free transporta-
tion are public officials, and | know
of no principle of law or rule of prop
erty that viii justify the taking of
the property of any one of these pub
lie service corporations and handing
it over to public officeholders merely
because they are holders of public Of
fice.''
This decision will affect all holders
or passes on all railroads, with the
exception of members of the legis.
lature and about twenty-five state Of
f1clals, who are the heads OF depart

HUMANE FIRE COMPANY'S
PUMPING ENGINE CALLED
But Little Work for Morrjetown Fire
men at Gen. Meany's
On Sunday.

Morristown's new automobile pump
ing engine answered its first alarm
Sunday when it answered an appeal
for aid from General Edward p.
Meany. The garage at '.Alnwick
Hail. was afire. Assistant Chief
Madigan with members of Humane
Engine company and other firemen
responded with the automobile. They
found General Meany directing the
efforts of his private department.
Equipped with a hand jumper OF regu-
lation fire hose, the men had at
tached a line to a hydrant on the
place and had the fire under control
when the Morristown firemen arrived
Considerable of the ceiling of the
first floor and some of the flooring
of the second story were ripped off
to get at the flames. The damage
is estimated at $500. An automatic
gas heater, used for heating the
water for the shower baths in the
garage, is blamed for the fire, it be-
ing thought that the flame in some
way ignited gasoline soaked wood
work neaar it.
Frank Sherlock, the Second man.
in the garage, WAS overcome by
smoke while fighting the fire and
was carried from the second floor to
the open air where he soon revived.
The pumping engine was not used
the local flremen finding nothing to
dc except to aid General Meany' S
men in ripping off ceiling and floor
where needed

MoRRIsToWN SCHOOL TRIUMPHS
Cadets Downed in Football Contest
on Wednesday.

Morristown School and Randolph
Military academy battled for the foot
ball honors of the town at Morrstown
Field club Wednesday afternoon. Nor
ristown School won tWenty-one to
nothing. The scoring was not made
until the last quarter. The first
points were on direct touchdown
and line plays. Then an inter ;epted
forward pass by Devitalis gave Nor
ristown School more points. Tie
third touchdown Deyitalis was also
responsible for, making a long end
run on a fake kick formation. Glenn
ent contributed two wonderful end
runs and Wendell, a brother of the
college crack of last year. ran down
some back punts neatly. Scott
starred for Randolph. The cadets
were hard put to it by injuries, TAX
ing out time on six occasions during
the first half to patch up the players
who were hurt. Their only chance to
score was on an attempted drop kick
that missed the goal.
