SPECIAL TEACHER
IN MORRIS PLAINS
Rural Township Will Engage
Woman to Instruct Back
ward Pupils.
Especial to the Evening start

YOUNGSTOWN. March 1S.-Morris
Township, rated as possessing among
the best public schools of any rural
district in the State, has taken an
other step forward. At the meeting
of the Board of Education last night
the recommendation of the teachers
committee that a teacher be employed
for sub-normal pupils was adopted,
and the committee authorized to en-
gage someone to take UP the work in
September According to Supervisor
Ray l.. Shaffer, there is a need for
such q teacher in the township
schools. The teacher is to visit daily
the various buildings and put the
youngsters who are behind in their
lessons through special training. and
is also to act as a substitute teacher
tage Routes Rearranged.
The transportation committee re-
ported the settlement of the difficult
ties arising over the transportation of
pupils to the schools, rearrange-
ment of the stage routes having been
made and an additional stage put in
service. Extra blankets were pur-
chased for the use of the children
during the extreme weather, so that
the Youngsters were qept warm and
snug.
Attendance Has Increased.
That the attendance of children at
the township schools mas increased
instead of decreased as a result of
TRANSPORTATION was shown by the re-
port of Supervisor Shaffer. The per-
centage of attendance for the first
half year of 1910 and 1911 was 79.S
At that time there were four one
rom schools The attendance for the
same period 1911-1912, was S1.3 per
cent During this time the eighth
grade of the Mt. Kemble Avenue
School was transported to the Hill
side School The percentage of at
tendance for the same period of the
year 1912 and 1913 was 49,. During
this period Mt. Kemble avenue build
ing was closed entirely and with the
Union Hill and South Street schools
combined with other schools. For
the present half-year the percentage
of attendance is 91.9. and at this time
there are no one-room schools.
Mr.. Shaffer points out that though
much of the credit for better attend
ance must be given the transporta-
tion feature the Capitalization OF the
schools has also brought about
greater efficiency on the part of the
pupils.
The board received a letter from
Miss Straussberger who resigned re-
Gently as domestic science teacher, in
which she thanked the board for its
kindness In making her duties pleas
ant and agreeable and offered to re-
spond at any time if she could be of
further service TO the township
schools.
The board ordered telephones in
stalled in the Collinsville and Nor
ris Plains schools. An application
from Mrs Guerin for position as
chaperon on one of the stages was re-
ferred to the transportation commit

Prevalency of Kidney Disease.

Most people do not realize the alarming in
crease and remarkable prevalency of kidney
disease. While kidney disorders are among
the most common diseases that prevail, they
are almost the last recognized by patients,
who usually content themselves with doctor
ing the effects, while the original disease
may constantly undermine the system
If you feel that your kidneys are the cause
of your sickness or rundown condition. try
taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the famous
kidney liver and bladder remedy, because as
soon as your kidneys improve they will help
the other organs to health.
II YOU are already convinced that Swamp
Root is what you need. you can purchase the
regular fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles
at all drug stores Don't make any mistak e
but remember the name, Dr.. kilmer $
swamp Root and the address, Binghamton,
N Y. which you will find on every bottle.

bridge to be played. SO many mem

them engaged premises next door, i,
which they could indulge in their ia
yOrite game.
