Fawcett School Opens
for the Winter Season
With Record Enrolment

The present number OF students en-
rolled In the evening classes at the
Fawcett School of Industrial Arts. in
Academy street, indicates that about
1000 members will be registered when
the term is well under way. The
school was opened for the winter sea-
son last night, and showed the largest
enrolment in the history Of the school.
There are now 1856 pupils on the
books, making 1t necessary for the
school authorities to secure additional
quarters.
The old Normal School, in Wash
ington street, will probably be used
for some of the evening classes, in
addition to the Market Street School,
which was used for this purpose last
winter. Twenty-one instructors will
be on hand to teach the prospective
artists. The commercial advertising
class will be instructed by Charles j.
Lauter, chief artist for the White
head & Hoag Company.
Principal Cephas l. Shirley, who
has been at the head of the school for
the past four years, admitted that
the record enrolment was a big sur
prise. He declared it was the best
evidence that could be obtained to
prove that a new school is needed.

BOARD D|SM|SSES
SCHOOL TEACHERS
Expulsion of Teachers in Har-
rison Follows Effort to
Resign Places.

Charged with characterization and
unprofessional conduct, the Misses
Blanche and Maude Mccain, Harrison
High School teachers. were yesterday
dismissed from the service by the
Harrison Board of Education. In ad-
dition to expelling the teachers the
board will likely communicate with
the State Board of Education in an
effort to have the licenses of the
teachers revoked.
An effort was made to communicate
with the dismissed teachers today. At
their home, 574 Belgrove drive, Ar
lington, 1t was said they were out of
town. James A. Brophy, secretary
of the Harrison board, was on hand
at the high school this morning. He
had notices of the action of the board.
One was served on Principal Cor
nelius A. McGlennon, officially notify
ing him Of the expulsion. The others
would have been served on the tutors
had they appeared. The Misses Nc
Cain were not on hand, however.
Official notification of their expulsion
will be served on them.
The present controversy between
the board and the two teachers first
arose when the Misses Mccain sent
their designations as teachers to the
board on September II last to take
effect October l. The board refused
to consider the designations, owing
to the fact that the two teachers had
signed contracts to teach for one
year The two women's salaries for
teaching during the summer months
were held back until they signed the
contracts. Since September IL the
two teachers have not appeared in
the High School.
On Friday the Harrison Board Of
Education notified the Misses Mccain
that the board would hold i special
meeting yesterday afternoon to take
action on their cases. While the two
teachers did not put in an appear
ance yesterday letter came from
them dated September 25. The let
ter was read to the board. 1t was
to the effect that the teachers had
both been Ill, but were now ready to
resume their school duties and ex-
pected to do so yesterday. They did
not do so, however. They stated they
were sorry that their designations
had not been accepted by the board.
The Misses Mccain have been brought
to the attention of the board
on other occasions. the board is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of engag-
ing Miss Jean Pierson, of Pottstown,
Pa, and Miss Mary Scanlon, of En-
glewood, to succeed the Mccain sis
terS.

Three Small Boys Confess
to Teft of Stage Jewelry

The entire amount of stage jewelry
stolen from the trunks of Clifford
Stork and Mable Brownell, which
were stored in the Family Theatre, at
Marshall and Washington streets,
was recovered by the police. Three
small boys were arrested and placed
in the House of Detention.
Lieutenants Harris and Mcconnell
and Detectives Owens and Bauman
found the storeroom in great disorder,
with numerous pieces of Miss
Brownell's wardrobe scattered about
the floor. Suspicion pointed to Elmer
Freeman, twelve years old, of S49
Halsey street; Harold Citcomb, thir-
teen years old, of SO Goes street. and
Harold Sturgis, fifteen years old, of
113 Arlington street. When the boys
were accused of the crime they con-

LIABILITY TANGLE
FOR JUDGE MARTIN
Must Decide What Is Half of

In this instance Judge Martin will be
called on to decide how much COM
pensation an employee can receive for
the loss of a thumb, the compensa-
ton received by the employee at the
time of the injury having been $1.25
a. week in cash and lodging and table

Dommenico scimmenti. now living
at Bedford street and Rhode Island
avenue. East Orange, is the en-
ployee who sues for compensation,
while Mario Aossi, of SO Cone street,
Orange, is the employer. Scimmenti,
in his petition, states that he was
employed by Aossi in the latter's
macaroni shop, and that on May s
last he had his right thumb cut off
by a macaroni cutter. He states that
at the time he was receiving remun-

After the accident he was removed

where he remained until May IL, after
which he returned to the Aossi home.

Under the law Scimmenti is entitled
to recover, If his case should prove
a worthy one, so per centum of his
daily wages for a period of sixty
weeks. The petition does not state
what the dispute that caused Scim-
menti to leave the Aossi home was
about. He does not make any claim
that Aossi cut down his rations so
per cent. or compelled him to sleep in
half bed.
On the face of the law and Scim-
menti's petition it looks as If he had
little chance of winning half his
board and lodging free from Aossi for
the sixty-week period, as the law
states: "Wages shall be construed to
mean the money rate at which the
service rendered is recompensed
under the contract of hiring in force
at the time of the accident, and shall
not include gratuities received from
the employers or others, nor shall it
include board, lodging or similar ad-
vantages received from the employer,
unless the money value of such adj
vantages shall have been fixed by the
parties at the time of hiring"
Scimmentis petition makes no
mention of any money value having
been fixed on the board and lodging
proposition at the time he was hired.

Withdraws Application for
Saloon License in ROseIand

Warren Reinhardt, who at the
opening of the September term of
court, made application to Judge
william p. Martin for a saloon
license to operate saloon on the
south side of Eagle Rock avenue,
near the Springfield bridge, Roseland,
today withdrew his request for a
license, and will probably seek a
license under the new law passed at
the last Legislature, which provides
that saloon licenses in county towns
may be granted to the highest bid
der.
There was opposition to the grant
ing of a license to Reinhardt, based
on the fact that Roseland has a
population of only 4S0, and that under
the old law licenses shall only be
granted in the ratio of one saloon to
each 500 of population.
