MANY NUISANCES ABATED
BY WEST ORANGE BOARD

No less than seventeen nuisances
of major kind were abated in West
Orange last month ard eight others
are at present in the process of
abatement, according to a report sub
mitted to the Town Board of Health
last night by D. Norris Farkas,
health officer.
Three more days of grace, DIR. Far
kas asserted, would be allowed the
milk dealers of the township who
had not already paid their license
fees in which to pay up or be saddled
with an additional penalty of SO In
all there are forty-seven milk deal
ers, including the grocers, in West
Orange, and of these only twenty
three have paid their license fees for
the year.

not paid they will be given their
choice of the $40 additional penalty
or having their licenses revoked. A
final warning in the shape of notices
sent to each dealer was sounded to
day.

AWAIT REPLY OF
|RV|NGTON PASTOR
Controversy Over Transfer OF
Members Watched With $.
Interest.

What answer, if any. the Rev.
George Fountain, pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, of Irv-
ington, will make on Sunday in the
controversy which has arisen be-
tween himself and the Rev. William
H. ;Iainer, pastor of the First Chris
| tian Church, over transfers of MEM
bership from the Methodist to the
Christian churches Is eagerly await
ed in Irvington church circles. The
trouble arose over the refusal of
Mr.. Fountain to grant letter trans-
ferring the membership of Albert
Denman and family, of 1856 Nesbitt
terrace, to the Christian Church.
The action of the Rev. Mr.. Foun-
tain compelled the Rev. William H.
Hainer, of the Christian Church, to
announce to his congregation why the
newcomers had no credentials to
present.
Mr.. Hainer now declares that he
will accept members from the Metho-
dist church regardless of any let
tiers from Mr.. Fountain, provided the
parties meet the requirements of the
Christian Church.
Reading the story in The Newark
Star several days ago the Rev. Mr..
Fountain visited The Stars Office and
complained about unfair treatment.
He furthermore stated that he had
never refused to grant dismissals. In
investigation by a Star reporter
brought to light the following letter,
needing no further comment, printed
exactly as the original, including err
rors, probably slips of the typewriter:
May 49, 1918.
Dear Brother Denman:
II have made up my mind not to
give any more letters to the Christian
Church If any one from the Metho-
dist Church desires to unite with
that church I will dismiss them. and
then they can join 1t on profession of
faith or any other way they wish.
II am sorry that 1 have to deny
you in this matter. Our deciplne SAYS
we may give letters to other churches
but it does not command us in this
matter. If you desire to be dismissed
from membership I will do so upon
your request.
Sincerely,
GEORGE FOUNTAIN.
The dissatisfaction in the church of
the Rev. Fountain is due, it is said,
to the rigorous stand he has taken on
certain political matters and also to
his attack on certain city officials
and the liquor interests.

HEALTH OFFICERS RULING
UPHOLDS DARWIN'S THEORY

Darwin's theory of the evolution of
man caused much debate last night
by the Irvington Board of Health.
The question was this: Resolved
That it is not necessary to take out
permit to keep monkeys. Contention
was made that if monkeye is man.
then. of course, no permit can be re-
quired. If a monkey is an animal.
then the Health Boards ordinance re-
quires the issuance of permit.
Health Inspector Joseph K. Click
enger reported to the board that IN
canvassing the town for persons VINO
have neglected to take out permits
for animals and chickens, he dlscov-
cred that some fifteen monkeys are
housed at Al Tiffany place. The owner
is C. Britlandin.
Mr.. clickenger. asked the board II
he should demand that a permit pc
taken out This unfortunate question
Immediately caused trouble. Com

health board appoint a delgate to at
tend the meeting of the league, the

delegate. Another communication
was received from the Mosquito Ex-
terminating League, Newark, re-
questing the cooperation of the board.

missioner Otto B. Argast contended
that as a monkey has four feet, of
course ii is an animal.
You don't know but what mon
key has two hands, replied Mr..
Clickenger.
Commissioner julius Bartosch
cautioned Mr.. Argast about being too
hard on the monkey tribe. I'VE must
be little lenient with monkeys, as
we are descended from Them" he
said.
THAT must be the reason the hair
on your head stands up So" inter-
posed Commissioner Hardgrove.
The discussion then ended, and the
board adjourned without any more
monkey business" Mr.. Clinckenger
declared TO Star reporter later that
no permit will be required. Appar-
emily, either satisfied in his own mind
that a monkey is a man or that, II an
animal, then the specific case Is not
covered by the health code.

tons in the Florence Ave-
nue. institution.

Another school is needed in the
First ward of Irvington in the vicinity
Of Stuyvesant and Halsted avenues,
according TO several members of the
Board of Education. Commissioner
Edward r. Folsom preached the sub
ject at the meeting last night, declar-
ing that the Florence avenue school
is unable to accommodate its pupils
properly, that the section is growing
rapidly and that a school should be
situated in the vicinity of the place
above mentioned.

property at that point, 250x300 feet
is owned by former Mayor William
L. Glorieux, but that he did not APP
pear anxious TO sell. Mr.. Folsom,
who is chairman of the new building
committee, suggested that authori-
zation be given for an investigation
of possible sites.
Commissioner Thomas B. Buchan
emphasized his colleagues remarks
and urged that the matter be taken
up without delay.
Miss Bernettie p. Colt recognized
the need OF new school in the ward,
but suggested that an addition be
placed on the Florence Avenue School.
The principal. Miss Sarah j. Belts.

an addition. The commissioner
thought an addition might be less ex-
pensive than a new school and serve

DAIRY CONDITIONS IN
IRVINGTON SATISFACTORY
Average Higher Than That OF
Other Towns.

That dairy conditions in 1rvington
are very good was shown by written
reports submitted to the Board of
Health of that town at its meeting
last night by DIR. Frederick c. Rob
ertson, State dairy inspector. At the
invitation of the board DR.. Robert
son made a tour of inspection some
weeks ago and declared then that
he was pleased with the results.
An average of 1885 points was
maintained by the sixteen diaries
from which the reports had been re-
ceived by Health Inspector Joseph
K. clickenger. The highest score
was SO points and the lowest 63
points. A score under 60 points
debars a dairyman from selling milk.
Among the dairies which scored high
was the one about which there was
much publicity several years ago on
account of it's condition.
Especially gratifying to the Irving
ton board Is the fact that this aver
age score of 77.S25 is five points
higher than the average scores of
other towns and cities inspected by
the state dulHOTll4eS. rIOlll ISpoi 10
compiled in 1911-the latest figures
in the possession of Mr.. Clickenger
it is shown that among the twenty
odd towns and cities inspected the
highest average score was 72.25 The
minimum was 52.25 points.
Furthermore, these scores were OBJ
tanned after a second inspection
which gave dairymen opportunity to
improve existing conditions. The
records for Irvington are for the first
inspection this year. A second will
take place later.
The list of towns referred to In
cludes Morristown, New Brunswick,
Princeton, Roselle, Metuchen, Bor-
