Post Office
Sites Inspected

A. F. Tinsley, representing the
Department of Treasury was here
Monday and Tuesday Of this week
inspecting the sites for the propos-
ed Federal building.
The places inspected were the lot
adjoining the Deer Park and the
Curtis property opposite the pre-
sent Post Office and the Chambers
lot on corner Of Delaware and
South College Avenues. The propo-
sition Of the Curtis property would
mean an extension Of Academy
street through to Cleveland avenue.
1t is understood that the Cham
bers property was offered for $4,000.
Mr.. Tinsley gave considerable
time and attention to the different
views presented. He refused, how
ever, to make any statement of his
recommendation. The purpose Of
sites is now in Department of the
Treasury. A bill is pending in
Congress at the present time which,
if passed, will place this under the
jurisdiction of the Post Office De-
partment.

the efficiency of work done in the
various departments Of the agricul-
tural division of the college. In
many cases it will be possible to
run two or three experiments on
crops in a year, where formerly
only one was possible, and thus
greatly shorten the time necessary
to complete certain work. From
the standpoint Of instruction, the
horticultural department feels that
its efficiency in handling classes in
plant propagation and vegetable
gardening, is increased by nearly
80 per cent, by the use Of the
greenhouse. When the houses are
entirely completed they will be
wired for electric lights and will
in every way be a model up-to-date
greenhouse plant.

with good attendance.
The subject for the afternoon
was Immigration" +" this being the
third month in the course Of study
outlined by the General Board.
The meeting proved especially
interesting as nearly every member
present took part in the discussion.
1t was so much enjoyed that it
was decided to make the next meet
ing similar in character.
At the close of the program a
short business session was held and
hostesses were announced for the
next four months. The April meet
ing will be held at the home Of Mrs.

Official Notice From
The Board Of Health

After May LIST, all overfowine
cesspools in the town Of Newark
will be condemned as dangerous to
the public health and ordered re.
moved or remedied by the proper,
ty owner, by authority given the
local board Of Health by the laws of
Delaware, Chap. 345, vol. 16, sec. 3.
Heretofore, it has not been possible
to abate these nuisances within any
reasonable expense, because Of diff

in abating such nuisances, in order
to protect the public health in every
possible way.

ton will be given to yard closets, or
toilets. Those that leak, or run
over through faulty construction,
or otherwise, will be ordered abated

SCHOOL CREDIT FOR
HOME INDUSTRIAL. WORK
New System To Be Introduced In Newark

Of it's purpose unless supplemented
by that training which the home,
and the home alone, can give. A
sense of responsibility in the man
as useful member of society can
hardly be expected unless this sense
Of responsibility has been awaken
ed and carefully nourished in the
child as a useful member of the
family. No demands Of the school
upon the time and strength Of the
pupil should serve as an excuse for
neglect Of home duties. 1t is in
recognition of this fact that the
school now offers to compensate
pupils for home industrial work
with credits leading to holidays
which will be granted without af-
fecting either his normal class
standing or record for attendance.
The plan is very simple; and as
it will closely follow that employed
at Dover, a portion of a pamphlet
prepared on the subject by the sup
ervising principal of that school,
George S. Messersmith, for distri-
button among parents, is reprinted
below.

A resolution providing for the
purchase Of loving cup to be the

In accordance with action taken
bv the Board of Education at its
last regular meeting, a system of
school credits for home industrial
work will be introduced in the pub
lie schools, Grades 3 to s inclusive,
at the opening of the next school
month, March %, Such a system
has been tried out in the public
schools of Dover, and the benefic-
ial results obtained there justify
the hope that it can be made equal
" helpful and popular in Newark.
The aim is largely one Of mutual
cooperation between the home and
the school. The work Of the two in
stitutions in the proper training Of
the child, is reciprocal. In recent
years the tendency Of the public
school has been to answer larger
and larger share Of this response
bility until today, especially where
manual training and domestic
science courses have been incorpor-
ated in the school curriculum, 1t
would seem that the schools were
ready to shoulder the entire bur-
den. Such, however, is not the
case; as important and necessary
as is the formal education supplied
bv the school, it will fall far short
