Employees of the American Vul-
canized Fibre Co. here, together
with those from Wilmington, en-
joyed their annual picnic on Sat
urday. The majority of those from
the local plant left Newark on the

mington in time to take the. 8

Beach. A few, went by machine
and all pronounced it one of the
best ever held. On the return trip
the steamer docked at 6 o'clock.
About 500 employees, represent
ing every branch of the business
attended the picnic. A feature of
the outing was the presence of
about Is district sales managers,
who were here attending the an
nual sales convention Of the COM
pany. These men all attended the
picnic and added greatly to the
interest Of all events.
The big event of the day, a lrase-
ball game between the office and
factory forces was won by the Of
flee men by score Of 5 to 0. The
game was full of interest, and the
factory boys provided good lot
of losers, fighting every point until
the last out in the ninth inning.
Athletic games occupied consid-
cradle attention. In the 1O0-yard
dash, Holland Herdman was the
winner. A 50-yard dash was won
by Miss Cavanaugh. The potato
race was won by Della Herbert :

MANY OBJECT TO
HIGHWAY PASSING
THROUGH TOWN
May Call Public Meeting Soon
to Discuss the Matter

Discussion is rife among Newark
residents concerning the course of
the Lincoln Highway through the
town. Thinking citizens point out
that for several reasons the High
way should not follow the route
through Main street. The policy of
the best road builders today, they
state, is to have highways 60 around
towns rather than through them.
Several reasons are advanced for
this. one being the mutual inter-
ference of through traffic with that
Of the town. This at the present
time is decidedly apparent as any
mOtorist and heavy truck driver
will testify.
Another reason is the heavy
burden placed upon towns, usually,
to put the streets in condition to
bear the heavy traffic which such a
highway imposes upon them. Main
street was not constructed to bear
such heavy trucks as are now pass
ING, through town. The consequent
damage to water mains was evident
last week when a leak appeared in
front Of the Elliott Building and
two others in spots affected by
heavy traffic. Town Council re-
Gently registered a protest at the
convoy station against the passage
of trucks equipped with non-skld
attachment for dirt roads.
Influential citizens Of the town
favor the calling Of a meeting to
discuss the matter, 1t has been
stated tha the direct route from
Roseville would bring the Highway
to Cleveland avenue, where there
is comparatively little local traffic.
Such a meeting may be called in a
few days.

GOVERNOR SIGNS
REVISED SCHOOL CODE
Was Urged By State Board To
Afix Signature

On thursday Governor JOnn u.
Townsend affixed his signature to
the revised school code passed by
the General Assembly at the recent
special session. This was done at
the request Of the members Of the
State Board of Education who
waited upon the governor on
Thursday afternoon and urged him
to sign.
Commenting editorially upon this
act of the governor the Morning
News says:
"After careful consideration
Governor Townsend has signed the
measure passed by the recent
special session Of the Legislature
amending the School Code. His
action is satisfactory to the State
Board Of Education, he having
advised with members Of that body.
The Board recommended that the
bill be signed. In al circumstances
the Governor has done the best
thing possible
"There were serious objections
to one feature Of the amendment
which made is possible to create a
squirearchy Of property owners
who could exercise much power,
and in many cases a controlling in
fuence in a referendum on ques-
ton of issuing bonds in a district
for Improvement purposes.
eve have no doubt that this
provision Of the amended Code, the
dollar system of plural voting, is
just as repugnant to the Governor
as it is to every right-thinking
citizen. However there are various
things to be considered by all those
who are deeply concerned in i'm
proving our public educational Sys-
tenn.
"The amendment was sewed up,
so that if the Governor vetoed the
bill the school districts would have
lost an appropriation from the
State treasury of $4,000 provid-
ed for in the amendment. The Gov
ernor himself had recommended
such a appropriation to help out
the districts. BY not signing the
bill he would have negatived his
own suggestion. This appropriation
from the State is necessary to run
the schools during the coming
academic year.
"The Objectionable feature OF
the amendment-that relating tC
dollar nottingham be changed a
the next session of the Legislature
But in all probability a new plar
for handling this matter of build
ing schools will be devised, which
would do away with the referen
dun voting feature entirely. There
may be a new system or bulge
which would provide that the Stat'
should bear the expense of con
structing new school buildings in
stead of the local districts or coun
ties. Under such a plan referen
dums would not be necessary ant
would be dropped. Much could b.
said in favor of such a change. y
