MANY TO STUDY
Glasses Being Formed, Meet
With Encouraging Response

The books for enrolment to the
classes for the night school to be con-
Quoted by the Young Mems Hebrew
Association of this city. were opened
last night. AS large a number as
twenty-five nave already enrolled for
the various classes. This is a sure
sign of success for the evening school
inasmuch as. very little publicity has
been given to a project of this kind.
The number Of pupils to take the diff
ferent courses are about evenly d.
vided, with Spanish taking the lead.
The Spanish course will be in
charge of Manuel Ximenez, of Market
street, his city. Mr.. Ximenez Is es-
pecia1ly qualified to teac this sub
1ect. He has a number of degrees OF
various Universities in Europe. Mr..
ximenez taught Spanish in the night
school in the Perth Amboy Y. M. @.
A. last year. Besides this, he has at
the present time a number of private
pupils.
The shorthand course will be in
charge of Bernard Karkus. of the
Raritan building, this city. Mr.. Kar-
kus has a number of private pupils,
who have enrolled in the Y. NJ. Fl.
A. night school. In the course the
Isaac Pittman system will be taught
A heavy enrolment is expected In
the AmericaniZation course. A COM
pl6Lo course WILL ne given 10 LOT-
eigners and beginners to e and
write the English language. These
English classes will be under the SUI
pervision of two well experienced
teachers of the Perth Amboy public
schools. The number of requests that
came in for the Y. M. II. A. to con-
duct citizenship classes is enough as
urance that 1t will be a large one.
These classes will be free 10 every
one.
The committee in charge of this
work announced that the classes will
be ~non-sectarian, and are open to
anyone who wish to enroll. Owing to
the Jewish holidays, the club rooms
will be closed to those who wish to
enroll until Monday night at seven
o'clock, and will remain open until
the 14th of October. Those who in
tend to take up any of the above
mentioned courses are asked to do so
not later than the closing date, as
the schedule will be made up imme-
diately following.
