Vice Chancellor Lewis in the Court of |
Chancery, the Court of Errors and APP
peals has affirmed the divorce decree |
granted to Irma Leigh Earl, in her suit
against Binney Woodward Earl, of

at Burlington, created sensation few

making other sensational charges. The
Vice Chancellor dismissed his suit, grant

sustained.
Miss Margaret j. Ross, one of the
Mount Holly High School teachers, has
and will start for Spokane,
Washington this week, where she has
secured position as teacher at salary
much in advance of that given her here.
This is the fourth High School teacher
that has been allowed to 60. Two of
them were not entirely satisfactory, but
the other two had done excellent work.
They left because they could get more
elsewhere The question of
salary has caused the Board of Education
some trouble this year. While it is ad-
mitted that the pay of teachers might be
properly increased the matter was not
provided for in the budget in March and
there are not any funds available for the
purpose. Miss Eleanor S. Kahn, who
has been doing excellent work in the
grammar grade, is said to be contemplate
ing accepting another position and
another High School teacher is reported
to be in the same frame of mind. At
the meeting of the Board Thursday even
ing George W. Durand will present his
as member of that body.
