Schools Will Not Open Next Week

At q special meeting Of the Board Of
Education last evening, the matter Of
opening the schools next Tuesday, the
regular date for the fall term to begin
was taken up for consideration. Mount
Holly has been exceptionally fortunate
in that no cases of infantile paralysis
have occurred within its limits and the
Board of Education feels that every pos
sible effort should be made to prevent
any possibility Of the disease gaining
foothold in the town. The Board of
Health established quarantine regula-
tions some weeks ago, forbidding child
rem under 16 attending public entertain
ments, churches, Sunday schools, and
similar places, but the Board OF Educa-
ton has not yet received any notice from
the Board Of Heath that such restrictions
have been promulgated.
The meeting was attended by Medical
Inspector r. H. Parsons, and after the
matter had been thoroughly discussed
it was decided that the Mount Holly
schools would be kept closed until Sep
TENDER Is. While that date has been
tentatively decided upon for the opening
the Board wishes it understood by both
parents and pupils that the schools will
not be opened until all danger of infan- I,
tile paralysis is considered to have past. |
II conditions are the same on Septem-
Der Is as at present, the schools will, in
all probability, be kept closed for several
more weeks.
Under the ruling Of the State Com
missioner of Education this enforced
closing of the schools will not interfere
with the receipt Of state school money,
and all salaries will be paid as if the
sessions were being held.
The vacancy in the teaching staff of
,he High school, caused by the resigna-
ion of Miss Helen A. Cunningham, has
been filled by the election of Miss Irene
;. Dougherty, Of Providence, r. 1. Miss
is graduate Of Brown Uni
1ersity, and has been teaching in the
Classical High school of Providence.
This election completes the teaching
Itaff for the coming term.

make restitution. This little matter has
been completely ignored and while he
has not failed to report to the probation
officer he has not made good with the
money. He holds responsible position
with a reliable firm in the west and Mr.,
Slaughter could not see any good reason
for allowing him to go free.

The fourth annual ball game between
the Mount Holly Elks and County
Officials, on Thursday, resulted in q
victory for the officials. The three for
mer events were won by the Elks. Not
withstanding that the officials used a
professional pitcher during the
latter part of the game, the contest was
in doubt until the conclusion of the last
inning.
The gate receipts amounted to $4725,
and this sum went to the Burlington
County Hospital.

George w. A. French, chief of the
Mount Holly Fire department, called a
! meeting for last Tuesday evening, at
| which three representatives from each
company, selected by the chief, were
present, and the subject of division of
the annual appropriation for fire pur-
poses was discussed. Heretofore the en-
CINE companies received more than the
others, but since the chemical apparatus
has been installed, the cost of running
the latter has increased materially. al.
though the majority of runs the chemi'
cal companies have had were out OF
town. The adjoining townships have
contributed something toward the sup
port of the companies here, and it il
argued that this money should be divid-
ed between the four companies. At the
meeting Tuesday evening it was decided
, to ask the township committee to divide
the appropriation equally.
