I.assie seemed to be an intelligent

proceeded to play. and owing to the
keen sight and the rapid facility with
which his cadde got after the ball he
never lost ball. Fotheringham says
that the last he heard of Sandy was
that he was teaching the kangaroo to
play golf and. while her fore legs are

The. new school is built of brick and
Is granite trimmed. 1t is one story in
height, as Commissioner Kendall re-
marked in his speech, is "the best four
room school house in the state" The
general plan is much after that of the
other schools built in the township.
The school stands on the site of the
Morris Plains Presbyterian church,
which was moved to Speedwell avenue,
and faces the private road over the
Sherman property. A class room is
on each side of the main entrance,
which opens into a spacious hall, and
the other two school rooms lie at the
back being separated by sliding par
tition.
1t was in these two rooms thrown
open that the dedication exercises
were held. In the basement is the
school kitchen fitted up with range
and other accouterments of a kitchen.
The manual training room is also in
the basement. After the dedication ex-
ercises those present were taken on a
tour of inspection. A school garden
has been arranged for in the rear of
the school.
Miss Mabel Heir is principal of the
new school, There was an interesting
exhibit of the children's work in man
ual training and cooking in these
rooms.

State Commissioner of Education
Calvin N Kendall was the principal
speaker at the dedication of the new
Morris Township school building on
Hanover avenue, Morris Plains, Tues
day evening. A large number of par
'ents and taxpayers were present.
Commissioner Kendall praised the

Esaid the commissioner, was fact of
which the city schools can not boast.
He also commended the Board of Edu-
cation for including gardening in the
curriculum and said these three things
went toward making the pupil pro-
ducer rather than consumer of which
he said there we're too many now. He
further commended the board ON pro-
viding deficiency teacher to assist
the backward children
County Superintendent of Schools,
J. Howard Hulsart, and Thomas T.
Sands, president of the Board of Edu-
cation were also speakers.
The dedication exercises were held

school. The school was formally open
ed on Washington's Birthday with a
