new PRINCIPAL
MEETS BOARD

A special meeting of the New
Hope Board of Education was held
Saturday evening for the purpose of
consulting with the new principal,
Warren R. Smith, who comes from
Riegelsville to take charge of the
schools. The lengthening of the
study periods was considered, and
finally left in the hands of the prin-
cipal for decision.
A continuation of the study of
Latin will be carried through the
third year, instead of bookkeeping
as in the past. Principal Smith
stated, that while Latin might be an
unnecessary and useless study for
many of the pupils, yet it was vi
tally necessary if they were to pass
on into higher schools without first
being tutored. Bookkeeping, as
briefly taught in the local schools,
was regarded as of small value to
the pupil who actually intended fol-
lowing that vocation later on, he or
she needing a much more intensive
training than could possibly be
given in a few moments each week
in connection with other studies.
The new flag, recently purchased
for the school property, was in
spected and pronounced a beauty.
The board regarded it as entirely
too good to be flung from the pres
sent fagpole at the top of the belfry
where it would only be switched to
pieces by the winds. Charles Jan
ney, one of the members, offered to
furnish fagpole free if the board
would have it hauled and erected,
and this was agreed to. The new
f1agpole will be placed directly in
front of the building, facing the
town and the river.
Professor Smith will commute for
a short time, until new apartments
are ready in the Solebury National
Bank building, when he and Mrs.
Smith will take up their residence
here. He has been at Riegelsville
for two years, prior to which he
was at Langhorne for a time. Mr.
Smith was a native of Monroe
county, his former home being in
Stroudsburg.
