and a Mr.. Johnson of the Jersey City
IN. j. high school, said:
Instances Of the same kind are not
numerous, and yet they can be found
in practically all the large cities of
this state. If the colored pupils do not
capture the highest honors as did those
Of Hoboken and Jersey City goodly
proportion Of them prove to be ener-

quite as competent to pursue the
courses Of study as are the white chill

don is concerned, there Is no color line

honors fairly won by industry and ap-'
plication. -.
Judging from the recent action Of
the June graduating class Of the East
Orange high school in attempting to
exclude the Misses Isabella and Irene
vandervall, members Of the class, from
participating in the class dances, 1t
would seem that sentiment in favor Of
intelligence, honesty and high moral
character has suddenly undergone a
radical change. o.. j.

daughters Of Mr.. James n. Vandervall,
a, well known and highly respected bus
mess man of East Orange. He Is the
owner Of the Essex Steam Carpet
Cleaning works and owns other valu-
able property besides" .
Miss vandervall was only sixteen
when she graduated from the East
Orange high school. Not being Of ell
gible age to enter a medical college,
she did postgraduate work at the high
school in East Orange for one term.
Miss vandervall completed her medical
course at the New York Medical col
