MOTOR ROAD TO LINK
 ALL NATIONAL PARKS
By Associated Press.

HELENA, Montana, July 29.- Eleven western states will be repre- sented at meeting in Yellowstone Park August 10 and II, called for the purpose of advancing the United States interior departments project of joining together the national parks with motor highway.
 Good roads experts, enthusiasts and commercial club presidents are coming from the principal cities oi the west to meet with the National Park Service officials. The motor highway, the first link of which al ready has been opened between Vel lowstone and Glacier Parks, is de- signed by Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane as means for keeping American vacation dollars al home instead of allowing them to go abroad.
 In speaking recently of the need for the convention, Senator T. j. Walsh of Montana said:
 "Goyerpments of Europe are pre- pairing for their greatest tourist years as soon as passports are again freely issued. Before the war $250,00OO0t was spent by Americans ir@ foreign lanis. Unless the government of the United States oes-something to keeI her people at home, the national parks and resorts of the west may be deserted in the years just ahead.
 Accordingly the interior depart ment has been aroused to the point of meeting Europe's tourist propa- ganda. One of the expedients is an automobile highway connecting the national parks and monuments. This will help keep the tide of tourists, which now is turned westward, com ing our way. The cooperation of the western states literally extended Ito the government al this time will repay them a thousand times"
 To lead the tourist cars from park to park, big motor busses are to be operated over the highway selected by the government. Already Yellow stone and Glacier Park busses main tain a regular schedule between these two great parks, making the two-day trip semi-weekly.
 Before the conference at Yellow stone, scout cars from Helena and Denver will make tours between Yel- lowstone and Rocky Mountain Park with National Park Service officials.
 As fast as the government can act and the transportation system devel- oped, park busses will be operated over the park to park road to tie to- gether Mt. Rainier National Park, Crater Lake, Sequoia, Yosemite, the Grand Canyon and in fact all the parks, monuments and resorts of in- trest to tourists in a western tour.
 It is to develop this highway sys- tenn that the conference has been called. The states to be represented are California, Colorado, Montana, Utah, Oregon, Arizona, Washington, Wyoming, North and South Dakota, Idaho and Nevada.

Why anybody should spend much time and money seeing Europe, with a vaster and richer scenic treasure house close at hand in America, is a question that has long been agitated.

Celebrated Wedding
Anniversaries

Four well known Burlington county
people celebrated their wedding ami.
versaries last week. On Christmas
day, 60 years ago, Mr.. and Mrs. Job D.
Borden were married in Burlington,
and on Thursday they celebrated the
event at the home of their son, T. Sher-
man Borden, near Beverly. There
were four generations present to con-
gratulate the couple upon reaching
this period of their life. The neigh
bors and host of friends in the coun-
ty sent greetings with substantial
gifts. Mr.. Borden was a farmer and
one of the most successful men in that
vocation in the vicinity of Beverly.
A few years ago he retired and made
his home in the city of Burlington.
But the country called them SO they
took up their residence with their son,
Sherman. Mr.. Borden never lost his
interest in the farm business and is
ent husiastic over every innovation of
machinery that will aid in the work of
tilling the ground. Although S4 years
OF age he thinks nothing of walking
three to four miles day.
On. Xmas eve former mayor Charles P.
Farmer, ST., and his wife, of Burlinton,
quietly celebrated the SD anniversary
of their marriage. Mr.. Farmer was a
civil war veteran, having served four
years in the army at the time of his
marriage. He tried to enlist but was
refused on account of his youth so he
got in as drummer boy and soon dis
carded his drum for musket. Mr..
Farmer has served the city of Burling-
ton as member of council and mayor
and has done much to improve the
city in the way of building new
houses. He is not so active as in for
mer years not because of advanced
age but on account of feeling that he |
has earned good vacation. He still J
maintains lively interest in the af-
fairs of Burlington.

Random Remarks

Mercer couuty's Board of Freeholders
mas been very much in the eye of the
public for certain methods that were
regarded as not entirely regular. Judge
Gnichtel recommended the appoint
ment of county auditor, but the
board refused to accept his suggestions.
1t is said the board is dominated bv
one Royle, who the Trenton Times
says has acted in brazen and offen-
sive manner throughout the whole
noisome mess that has resultediin large
measure from his raw and rough meth
ods in bulldozing weak members of
the board" " The Times further re-
marks that it is unfortunate that two
of the members that it names should
lend themselves to Royle's methods.
This is quite right. 1t is lamentable
to think that one or even three men
can get together and form a clique and
push through measures that are not
acceptable to the others and which
may be resented by the public. Bur
lington county will have new board
on the first of January, consisting of
five men who have been selected be-
cause the public believed they are cap
able of attending to business that
amounts to over million dollars in q
year. 1t is to be hoped they will work
in harmony and that there will not be
any attempt at one man or even three
man dictation.

Statements that Incompetence
marks the conduct of the Trenton Di
vision OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
made in communication to United
States Senators Edge and Frelinghuy
sen by the South Jersey Commuters
Association, were on Saturday brand
ed as "maliciousattacks on the Trenton
Division" by l. d. Jessup, Pennsyl
vania Railroad trainmaster.
Mr.. Jessup said that train DELAY on
the line which runs from Camden to
Mount Holly, Camp Dix and Long
Branch, was because OF the fact that
the division was single-track branch.
The principal charge against the rail-
road in the Commuters Association
communication was that many trains
have never been on time since the
fall. The letter also states that "the
management of the Trenton Division
has all the appearance of a deliberate
attempt to discredit the Government
administration of the railroads, and
when complaints to the regional di.
sector have resulted in increasing the
number of cars on trains, the in.
crease is soon dropped, although the
trains, even with the additional
coaches, are overcrowded.
In an amplified explanation of the
charge of the delay OF trains Mr..
Jessup said: Schedules on a single
track line must be so arranged that
trains meet on sidings. II one train
is late, it will affect other trains which
it is supposed to meet at certain times
at different switches. Our train dis
patchers endeavor to give preference to
the trains carrying the heaviest loads,
the trains into Camden being given
the righto-way in the morning and
the trains out of Camden being given
preference in the evening. The minor
trains are detained to make an attempt
to keep the most important ones on
time"
Mr.. Jessup places the blame for late
trains in the evening on the Camden
Terminal Division. He declared that
his daily reports showed trains held up
from four to IA minutes because OF late
boats, signals, switches and failure of
engines to arrive promptly. He says,
however, that the only real solution
of the problem would be to construct
double track on the line complained
of.
Other charges made in the letter
that train crews refuse to open empty
cars on trains when people are stand
ing in the aisles of filled coaches were
refuted by Mr.. Jessup. whenever
we hear of crews that refuse to open
empty cars we Immediately take action
against them" he said. Personally,
do not believe there are many cases
of that Sort" he continued.
A statement made in the letter that
people are kept standing in the Cam
den Terminal waiting without shell
ter does not come in the province OF
this division, Mr.. Jessup said. THAT
is purely a matter for the attention OF
Camden Terminal Division" he con-
cluded.

but such payment is made only when
the parent or guardian himself fur.
nishes the transportation and there is
definite understanding as to where
the child is to attend school, and the
distance through which the child is
transported.
Furthermore, l. Edward Harrison
was member of the Board of Educa-
ton OF North Hanover township, and
as such could not under the law be
interested directly or indirectly in any
claim against or payment of moneys
to be made by said Board of Education
to him. Receiving as member OF the
Board OF Education moneys for the
tuition of his children was not only
clearly without color of law but was
plainly against the specific provisions
of the law. The Board of Education of
which he is member paid him tut
ton money clearly in violation of the
specific provisions of the law. The
district clerk in certifying to the Coun-
ty superintendent the cost OF trans
portation an in certifying to the County
superintendent of the school at which
the children of l. Edward Harrison at
tended, namely the Trenton SCHOOL, |
certified that which was false, No |
where does it appear that the Board of |
Education of North Hanover township
had an application from either l. Ed |
ward Harrison or his children to at
tend the Trenton High school. Now
here does 1t appear that the consent of |
the Board of Education of North Han.
over township was granted in accord
ance with the provisions of the law to
1. Edward Harrison for his children to |
attend the Trenton High school or any
school in New Jersey within the public /
school system.
II therefore find that the Board of
Education of North Hanover township
acted clearly in violation of the law
and misappropriated school moneys
when 1t was ordered paid to /. Edward
Harrison the sum of $13O in the year
1917 and the sum of S140 in the wear
1918, total of 1870. 1t is therefore
hereby ordered that the Board of Edu-
cation of North Hanover proceed at
once to collect the sum of $27O from
the said l. Edward Harrison. And it
is further ordered that out of said $27O
to be collected as aforesaid from the
said /. Edward Harrison the Board of
Of Education Of North Hanover town.

Burlington County the sum of $2O5,
