peeially lung and throat affections
The Germans have not abandoned
their attempt 10 reach the Frencl
coast towns and yet they have no
, advanced. Today the Germans are
back on the right bank of the User
having been forced 10 release theil
grips on points on the left bank
held so stubborrnly by them the
last week. This retirement is de-
ycribcd in the official communication
given ont in Paris last night as the
most noteworthy incident of the
day." and il shows how little change
there has been elsewhere in Belgium
or in France.
Meantime the Germans arc put
ting the finishing touches to the de-
fenses stretching in row after row
from Ostend to the Dutch border,
and should their present lines be
broken, they probably will winter
in these snug and carefully pre-
pared positions.
In the eastern arena of the war
the Germans are making and exc
cutting similar plans in the face of
the Russian advance. 1t is said
that great German forces are being
at Thorn. Posen and
Breslau, with the idea of keeping
the Russians out of important dis
trcts in the provinces of Posen and
Silesia.
A word Of caution comes to the
allies from Petroerad. This is that
they must not expect the Russians
to sweep en- TO Berlin overnight as
this advance may take months and
even longer. The Germans occupy
the defenses they have been prepar-
ing for years, and IN addition to
this they may be able to spare even
more men for the operation on their
eastern front.
russian armies seem to grad
lally ccnverging on Cracow and the
siege or investment of that place APP
pears to be not far of. 1t is sug-
gested that the Austrian garrison of
Cracow might surrender to avoid a
bombardment but this can be called
nothing mere than a suggestion.
In cast Prussia the Russian for
ward movement seems to continue,
and it is said that the Russian gem
rails are imposing on tho captured
towns fines in proportion to those
levied by the Germans on the cities
Of Belgium. These fines correspond
with the population of the town
taken.
The British operations again have
spread the eonfagration to the
entrance of the Red Sea,
where Indian troops. assisted by
british warships, have taken
Turkish port. In the Caucasus. the
Russians and the Turks are still at
grits both sides claiming victories.

AFF|RMS DISMISSAL
OF SCHOOL TEACHER
Assistant Commissioner of Ed
ucation Dismisses Appeal of
Miss Laura C. WEIGH.
Especial to the Newark star. /

TRENTON, Feb. 1.-THE action of
the West Orange Board of Education
in diamissing Laura c. Welch for in
subordination as a teacher has been
affirmed by Assistant Commissioner
of Education j. Brognard Belts, in an
opinion today. An appeal to Commits
sioner Belts was taken on three
grounds; that the appellant had been
denoted from principal to a teacher
ship in violation of the tenure of SER
vice act; that her dismissal was IL
legal and that she had not received
the full amount of salary she was en-
titled to under the law. Mr.. Belts de-
cides against the appellant on all
grounds.
Prior to April 1918, Miss WEIGH had
taught continuously in the West Or
ange schools for more than three
years and was protected under the
tenure of service act. She claims she
was principal of the st. Cloud School
and that the action of the Board of
Education on June 8, 1913, transfer
ring her to a position as teacher in
the st. Marks School was in VIOLA
ton of the act. Mr.. Belts says the
law provides that the county superin-
tendent of schools shall apportion to
district the sum of $500 for each
principal employed. and the sum of
5000 for each teacher except certin
high school teachers.
The evidence, he says, shows that
5000 was apportioned to the district
of West Orange for Miss WEIGH. The
supervising principal and the district
clerk both testified that Miss Welch
was a teacher and not a principal,
and Miss WEIGH testified that all the
time the school was in session she
was occupied in teaching.
In explanation of his decision, Com
missioner Belts says:
"A principal of school is person
who devotes all or nearly all his time
to supervising the work of the classes
in his building, and very little, if any,
time to class teaching. Miss WEIGH
was a teacher and not a principal and,
could legally be transferred
to another position.
1.-The claim of the appellant that she
has not received the full amount of
salary due her is not properly before
me. Having taken the case to the
district court, and the case having
been tried in said court on its merits
she is bound by its decision until said
decision is reversed by a court hav-
ing Jurisdiction in appeals from dis
trict courts.
1.-THE appeal is dismissed
