The Rivals.

A young man was seizNd with
raging toothache. A friend took him
to a dentists to have the tooth out.
But the sufferer, after a chance look
INTO the operating room, whispered
doubtfully:
by jove. you know, I'm afraid to
let this chap tackle my teeth. He
and are rivals for the same girls
hand
But his friend persuaded him that
his fears were absurd, so, when his
turn came, the young man united
the flannel band from his face and
disappeared.
A long time passed. The man wait
ing outside grew restless. At last.
fearing that something serious might
have happened-that his friends
doubts might have been too we'll
founded, after all-he opened the door
and entered the chamber of horrors.
What a sight met his eyes! The
patient lay, pale and unconscious, in
the operating chair, while, with a
maniacal smile the dentist bent over
him. pulling out tooth after tooth,
and murmuring gaily, as he tossed
the little white worries in the air:
"She loves me, she loves me not.
She loves me, she loves me not. -

NutIey School Board Also
Adopts Measures for Spread
of Contagion.

To allow many pupils who have
been i'll with measles, and who have
now recovered to return to school,
the Nutley Board of Education at Its
meeting last night decided to lower
the period OF quarantine from twenty
eight to twenty-one days This step
was taken upon the suggestion OF Ut.
Alfred Jackson, medical inspector OF
schools, who said that 1t was entirely
unnecessarily to keep pupil from
school that length of time after re-
covery.
The kindergarten in Park School
was closed yesterday on account OF
the disease The board Endorsed the
action of the rules and regulations
committee in taking this step, and
also in closing Yantacaw School two
weeks ago. Dr. Jackson expressed
the opinion that Yantacaw School can
be reopened Monday.
To prevent the recurrence or such
spread of contagion among the school
children the board passed a resolution
governing the closing of the schools.
In the future when the medical in
spector finds two cases of an infec-
tious disease in one class room he is
to notify the superintendent OF
schools, who will Immediately close
the class room. If this had been done
in the Yantacaw School the present
epidemic would have been avoided.
There We're twenty-five cases of
measles in one class alone in that
school.
request was received from the or
ganization committee of Nutley S
Progress Day." asking that the Park
School grounds and building be used
for the celebration on June 20. The
matter was referred to the building
and grounds committee and the su-
perintendent.
The resignation of Lelan p. Knapp,
principal of the high school, to take
effect Friday, was received. Mr..
Knapp has accepted a position with
q book company. No immediate ac-
ton was taken when the resignation
came up, aid the board decided to
hold a secret session.
1t was learned after the meeting
that the high school was the subject
of the discussion. One member said 1t
was "the laughing stock of the COM
munity." The alleged inefficient work
of some of the instructors was criti-
ciSed.
Before the close of the session Su-
perintendent of Schools John r.
Beachler made an urgent plea to the
members that they drop all differ
ences which they may have and unite
in their efforts to bring the schools of
Nutley to their proper standard.

were cast, the highest vote in many

Fourth district that the election OFF,

Oranges Club Women
THE woMAN's CLUB OF ORANGE.

Alexander Cleland addressed the
social science department of the
Woman's Club of Orange yesterday
afternoon on the immigration queS-
ton, following brief reports made by
Mrs. William Downs, on the mothers
congress, and Mrs. James e. Chees
man, on the conference of charities.
New Jersey ranks fifth In the hous-
ing of immigrants in this country,
Mr.. Cleland said. In 1900 the Ger
mans lead in immigration to the
United States, with the Irish second
English third and Italians fourth Ten
years later the Italian had assembled
to first place. Passaic, N. j., has the
largest population of foreigners in
the country. Mr.. Cleland told of the
work being done by the State Com
mission of immigration, appointed by
the State of New Jersey in 1911. He
declared that the reason foreigners
settle in the cities and not on farms
is because the State has provided no
means for them to ascertain any
thing about land in New Jersey, and
q great many of their number have
been the victims of dishonest land
agents, who charge s640 per acre for
land worth $40. Investigation proved
that this largely accounts for the
immigrants lack of enthusiasm for
the work of the fields.
Mrs. William Sage will be hostess
on May at q business meeting of
the Orange Political Study Club at
her home, 81 Cleveland street, Orange.
There Will be an election to fill the
office of president, made vacant by
