BALKANS AND TURKS At PEACE
THE PRELIMINARY ARTICLES
EASILY AGREED UPON.
Treaty Signed in London by All Those
Concerned in the Eight
Months War.

May 31-file eight months
war between Turkey and the allied
Balkan states is ended. The peace
of London was signed in the picture
gallery of st. James palace.
Sir Edward Grey. the British for
eign secretary. presided over the for
malities. The following peace dele
gates signed the preliminary treaty:
Ozman Miami Pasna. for Turkey:
DR.. naneff, for Bulgaria; Stefan No
vakovitch, for Servia; Stephanos Sko-
loudis, for Greece, and NJ. Popovitch,
for Montenegro.
The only dramatic feature of the
historic occasion was NJ. Popovitch's
expression of keen disappointment
that Montenegro had been ''despoiled
of her just share of the spells of
triumphant war" and of the hope that
England, which took the lead in the
spoilation," would take every step to
compensate Montenegro for her sac
rifice.
The actual ceremony was very brief.
The delegates signed the treaty with
out reading it, evidently in full con-
fidence that all the seven articles
were in such wording as the powers
chose to havet them.
The Bulgarian delegate proposed
that peace become Immediately effec-
tive without ratification of the treaty.
This proposal was rejected and the
delegates then left, after having
agreed to meet June 2 to consider the
advisability of an eventual annexed
protocol.
After informing the ambassadorial
conference of the signing of the peace
draft, Sir, Edward Grey suggested that
the conference limit its discussions to
three questions-a constitution for Al
bania, the delimitation Of the south
ern frontier Of Albania. and the status
Of the AEGEAN islands. The ambassa-
doris are now awaiting further instruc-
lions from their governments regard.

tigating and working out the SPECIAL
farm problems of Missouri. During
this same period of time the United
States Department of Agriculture has
been solving similar problems for the
United States as a whole. A vast
amount of valuable information has
in this way been secured. And this
information has been supplanted by
careful studies of the methods used
by successful farmers and the rea-
sons for their success. To carry this
information to the farmers Of Mis-
souri, and to help to put it into actual
practice on their farms, is the spe-
cial function Of the farm adviser.
The first step in this plan was the
appointment of q man to take gen.
eral charge of the work, and be
equally responsible to the College OF
Agriculture and the U. 8. Department
OF Agriculture. This man Is called

EDUCATION BOARD
SPLITS ON SALARY
Truant Officer of Harrison Has
Pay Reduced-Star Cham
Der Session.

The first split in the Harrison
Board of Education since the or
ganization Of that body last Febru-
airy, occurred yesterday wnen by a
vote of 81. It was decided to re-
duce the salary of the truant officer,
William Taft. to $1,000. Taft for
merly received 81. 200 a year Com
missioners Patrick J. Condor and
John Lynch opposed the reduction,
while President NJ. OF. Dolphin and
Commissioners John and Peter
O'connor were in favor.
Instead of naming Taft as had
formerly been done, simply TO re-
appoint him, the board engaged him
during the pleasure Of the board"
What this means could not be
learned.
There was no explanation made re-
garding the decrease in Salary.
Whatever objection might have been
felt was voiced in "star chamber
session.
Every committee is composed of
the entire membership, and all of the
board business is done in committee.
Affairs that come IN at the meetings
are disposed of without any formal
'ty. Even the secretary is not pres
ant at these executive meetings. Re-
garding board business members,
when questioned. appear evasive.
The board reappointed the entire
teaching staff. Several new tutors
were named. DR.. A. Mulligan was
gain named as school physician. The
salary of George Fallon. high
school teacher, was increased from
81, 200 to 81, 300 1t was decided to join
the New Jersey Federation Of District
Boards of Education. President
P. Condor will represent the Har-
rison body.
The board took no action in the
matter of remaining janitors for the
schools, and there is said to be some
disagreement regarding what action
is to be taken and what men are to
be named. The board will take steps
to aid the State authorities In the
work of caring for sub-normal school
children. The resignation of Miss
Mary l.. Prendergast, teacher in
school No. 2. was received with re-
gret. Miss Prendergast will cease her
duties on June 20. She is to become
the bride of Thomas L. Jordan.

work to a retaining wall which was
built recently by Martin Brennan, an
Orange contractor. for a brook In that
city, was entered with the COM
mittee by Mr.. Brennan. Mr.. Bren-
nan stated that the original contract
had called for a wall of certain
number of feet in depth, but owing
to unfavorable conditions in the
brook he was obliged to build larger
wall than was specified in the con-
tract. He said the extra work cost
him about $500 and he accordingly
entered the claim. He was paid for
the diHOulit SdAeu iut III inc SohtI act,
but not for the extra work.
A lively tilt took place between
City Engineer Fred T. Crane and

ever, deferred action on the claim.
which will be investigated before any
