is expected the pupils will number 700 at
the end Of the school year.
During April 1872 pupils were neither
absent nor tardv. The 9TH and 9Th grade
had average attendance of more than So
per cent and were given half day yaca-
ton.
The 9th grade pupils are taking their
County tests this week and next. The
State examinations which those in the 7
and 9Th grades have to take will be held
later.
The 9th grade spelling contest will be
next week. The American Book Co. has
donated Webster Dictionaries as prizes.
Penns Grove schools began last Sep
TENDER with Is teachers and $50 pupils.
Now there are enrolled 683. Twenty-one
teachers have been elected for the school
year to begin next September. They will
occupy every one of the nine rooms in the
new building not yet completed. How
many pupils there will be is only c%onjec-
ture. Because there has been an increase
of IS since January l, there is likely to
be as many more in the next four months
by September LIST.
Upper Penns Neck Township Board OF
Education is in a quandary what to do.
BY September 1st, it is expected that the
1I0cottages in the new town of Riverview
will be filled with families and two chill
daen to a family. Penns Grove may be
able to take the pupils in the higher grades
but not in the lower grades. The Cove
school house will have to be refitted aud
opened and possible the temporary build
ing left by the DUPONT Company which
was used for q cook kitchen may be used.
If more room is needed school houses may
be purchased ready to put together. All
the seashore cottages now being erected
to make the town of RivervieW are of that
style of buildings.
The old provincial ideas in the station
airy minds of the old inhabitants have been
so shattered within the past three years,
and more especially with the past six
months, that they are now prepared to
not be surprised at anything which may
occur in Penns Grove in the future.
The men who manage the dupont Com
pany bought 1900 acres of land years ago
below Penns Grove, and 1900 at City Point
Va, in recent years to he ready for in
dustrial expansion. That was business
sagacity. Where would they be now with
out those purchases. For a few acres of
land needed they have paid double the
prices paid in former years.
Who does not now see the need OF four
acres of land for a school ground for Penns
Grove? when a new nine room building
will be filled next September? The Sack
land will be needed in the near future
even at double price.
