quite explicit. All one had to do was
to keep the temperature at 102 to 103

AS the third week was drawing to

much. The book said that chicks

week and the eggs we're to be sprayed
occasionally during the last few days.

What's that? Four weeks for Indian

He was still weak and confined to

and Laeombe as a special committee
to determine If the budget as pre-

mously adopted by the full board

On motion of Freeholder Richard
F. Malta, Director Evans was in
structed to prepare a statement for

boards Of the different municipalities

tax rate was due to the fact that
mandatory appropriations such as
money for park commission, widows
pensions and an $50. 900 increase in
school taxes had to be placed in the
budget under the law. Mr.. Malta
explained that the finance commit
tee had kept appropriations for the
actual running expenses of the coun-
ty at as low a figure as possible.
Coal Contract Awarded
With the budget out Of the way

CONCRETE WAR HAS
/ HELD UP SCHOOL
Kearny Committee Will Confer
With Board to Settle
the Dispute.

In an effort to effect a settlement
IN the dispute in connection with the
erection of the concrete school at
Belgrove drive and Woodland avenue,
Kearny, a committee of citizens,
named at meeting last night, will
wait on the Kearny Board of Edu-
cation and a committee of the Citl-
zens and Taxpayers Association of
the First and Second Wards, Kearny,
and endeavor to devise ways and
means for having the building COM
pleted.
The civic organization has been
fighting against the use of concrete
and it is due to the efforts of this
organization that the work on the
school building has been delayed.
Samuel w. Smith, one of the lead
ing members OF the civic organiza-
ton, went over very carefully all OF
the facts attendant upon the fight
that has been waged against the use
of concrete.
He told of the protests made by
the citizens and taxpayers of the
First Ward against the use of con-
crete and pointed out that the school
board practically turned deaf ear to
the pleadings of those who opposed
concrete Mr.. Smith then told of the
legal fight that had been waged. In
concluding his talk Mr.. Smith de-
clared the present First Ward school
building at Kearny and Johnston ave.
10 !. :,
crete building will be equally as
bad"
George Alexander, president of
the Kearry Board of EDUCATION, who
was present. made it very plain he
had not attended the meeting as a
member of the board but simply as
citizen He failed to see, he said,
what good could come out of con-
ference with the school board. He
said lower end men" had tied the
hands of the board, and as a result
of the fight they had promoted had
cost the town between $1,000 and
$4,000 needlessly.
The school system is disrupted as
result of the squabble, Mr.. Alex
ander declared, and he failed to see.
he said, what could be gained by the
men who are responsible fer holding
up the concrete school work. Con-
corning the recovery by suit of s45, 600
paid to date for work done on the
school, Mr.. Alexander declared he
would resign rather than handle any
money that would come to the board
through such a channel. Should the
courts decide the money must be paid
back by the contractors. it would be
theft, legalized, Mr.. Alexander de-
clared, to accept it.

''PEACE DAY" TO BRING NO

With favor to none and fairness to

exercises Friday. Criticism Of the or

was made to the teachers and educa-
tional committee of the Board Of Ed
ucation by the German Irish Alliance

eest, Assistant superintendent Of

structed to prepare set of instruc-
lions to each Of the principals regard
ing the days observance.
Reading of the protest, Mr.. Ken
nedy, according TO his statement to
a representative of The Morning Star,
prepared a supplementary circular
In this document. which received the
committees sanction and which will
be sent out today. Mr.. Kennedy says:
In the arrangement Of your pro-
gram for Peace Day" you are eau
toned to avoid everything that will
stir up racial luminosity or give Of
Tense to the people OF any religious
denomination. A peace celebration
that win excite international hatred
or any of the passions that lead to
war will be an anomaly
Emphasize the leading ideas of
Peace Day to wit: The brotherhood
of man: the horrors and economic
waste Of war; the wisdom OF resort
ing to arbitration as means of set
ting international disputes.
This can be done without undue
laudatien Of any nation OF people and
without teaching the tenets OF any
particular sect or creed"
Mr.. Kennedy closes his circular
with the following stanza from Robert
Burns:
Then let us pray that come 1t may,
AS come 1t will for a. that;

Shall brothers be for a. that"
