Parent-Teachers' Association.

The regular monthly meeting OF the
Parent Teachers Association was held
in the high school auditorium Thurs.
day evening and the large audience
showed that interest in this movement
is growing.
The high school orchestra rendered
some selections that were heartily en-
ioyed and then there were some exer-
cises by children of the lower grades
that gave evidence of the careful train
ing which. had been given them by
their teachers. 1t was expected that
pupils from the Samuel Aaron school
would be present and take part, but
they got the date mixed and thought
the meeting would be next week. Miss
Smith, president of the association,
said this part of the program would be
on the bill for the next meeting.
County Superintendent Kayser was
the speaker of the evening. He spoke
of the good influence that could be
exerted by an association Of teachers
and parents. He related many in
stances where teachers and parents, by
getting in closer touch with each other,
could do great deal to advance the
cause of education. He admitted that.
from what he had learned of the local
organization, many of his remarks
might not be applicable, but he felt it
was not out of place to call attention
to matters that should be continually
in mind. He referred to the character
and conditions of school buildings and
grounds. and the necessity for seeing
that they should always be kept in
good condition. The surroundings Of
a school building were Of the greatest
He related how he had
seen good buildings TO reach which the
children were compelled to go ankle
deep in mud. In other places the
roads leading to schools were not good.
He told his hearers that II there were
any conditions that were brought to
their attention which might be rem
edied by applying to the board of
education or the township committee,
they should get busy at once and see
that everything was done to benefit
the schools.
Mr.. Kayser spoke Of Visit the school
week" which began yesterday and
will continue until Friday evening.
He asked all those present to visit the
schools during this week and to induce
as many others as they could to do the
same thing.

Court Affairs.

Judge Lippincott had twointeresting
cases before him Thursday and he de-
voted much time to them in endeavor-
ing to get at the exact truth before inn
posing sentence.
The first was that Of George Poulson,
who had pleaded non vult to charge
of obtaining goods under false pre-
fences. Poulson had purchased horses
at sale in Medford and it was dis
covered soon after he had bought them
that the man did not have any money
in bank. Robert Peacock represented
the prisoner. He said his client did
not tell Israel Garwood, who sold the
horses, that the money was in bank,
but that he expected to have it there.
On this statement he was allowed to
take the horses away but was arrested
the next day. Mr.. Peacock claimed
that Poulson was travelling along a
route where he might be able to sell
the horses. Mr.. Peacock referred to
the evidence Of Garwood who said he
looked at Poulson's bank book and
thought it showed balance of 50, 500.
This statement the lawyer described as
one of the weakest that any man,
especially business man, could put
forth. He referred to the fact that,
notwithstanding Poulson was a
stranger whose appearance did not car
ry out the idea that he had even $25 in
bank, Garwood took him upon his own
assertions and did not take the trouble
to call up the Elmer bank to see if the
man had an account there. 1t looked
as if there was anxiety to get rid of a
lot of horses. The fact that there was
a man named Mullen with Poulson
and that the former was equally guilty
was referred to and Mr.. Peacock said
he thought it was the duty Of some
body to get the other fellow before the
court.
| Judge Lippincott said he had given
this case very careful attention and he
could not see where Poulson was en-
titled to any leniency. While Gar
wood might have been negligent in hi:
Examination Of the bank book or in
not calling up the bank, that did moi
excuse the prisoner, who certainly had
acted with guilty intent. The court
said this was not the first time Poulsor
had given checks without having the
money in bank, to which the latter re-
piled thatthe statement was correct
but he had always met the cheeks
when presented. The court could mo-
see that there was anything to justify
the act on which he was brought uE
and the sentence was that Poulsor
serve term in the state prison for nol
less than one year nor more than three
years.
Rasmus c. Hanson was the next tx
stand up. He is young man whs
had been working for the Adams Elk
press Company in Bordentown. BAG
company, drink and carousing seem t.
have been the cause of his goinl
wrong. He did not attend to his bust
ness and the accounts were not KEEP
correctly, so that eventually shortage
was found in the cash. Hanson wal
before the court two or three weeks agt
but Judge Lippincott gave him |
chance to fully explain everything ii
connection with the case. This Han
son was not able to do satisfactorily
1t was plain case of using none!
that did not belong to him and after
very long and careful examination
Judge Lippincott decided that tn
place for the young man is in the Rah
way Reformatory.

the programme begins.
The body of an unknown man was
found in Pensauken creek, near West
Palmyra. Friday morning. 1t was
viewed by Coroner Gaskill, of Mount
Holly, and placed in the PALMYRA
morgue. The body was identified as
that OF James Mcintyre, who fell
from sand dredger into the river at
Bordentown in December. Coroner
Gaskill took Drs. Darlington and
Prickitt to Palmyra. yesterday, and
had postmortem examination of the
remains. The body was recognized by
James Mcintyre as that of his son. He
thought the mans skull had been
fractured, but the examination failed
to disclose any such condition. The
lungs showed that death was caused
by drowning. The dead man was 20
years of age and had wife and child.
Next Sunday evening an American
flag will be presented to the Methodist
church by the Federation of Patriotic
and Religious Fraternities, the flag
having been donated by Marion Circle

The Girards probably returned to
Philadelphia in 1779, as in that year
he took lease on a row of small stores
in that city. However, he retained
possession of the property here for
some time, as deed from Stephen
Gerard to Hyacinthe AgneI, dated
October 6, 1883, is recorded in Book
AP. folio 538, in the Secretary's Office
at Trenton. It conveys a 'Messuage
or tenement and four lots OF land and
premises contiguous and adjoining,
situate and being on the northerly side
of Mill street and the southerly side of
Garden street in Mount Holly, &c.
The property had many owners in
the next thirty years, the chain of title
being as follows:
Hyacinthe Agnel to Josiah Gaskill,
July A, 1892.
Josiah Gaslkill to Jesse Cox. Novem
Der Is, 1896.
Jesse Cox and wife to MahIon Budd,

$50 pounds. This deed is recorded in
the Burlington county clerks Office.
Samuel Rush and Agnes Rush to
William Rogers, Jr., June 6, 1872.
Consideration $500. Recorded at Mount
Holly.
William Rogers occupied the prop
erty until his death, and disposed of il
by will.
1t is interesting tonote that the place
sold for $500 in 1872, the same figure
that Girard paid for it in TIT.
The Girard estate has made severa
attempts to purchase the property OF
J Mill street without success.
