.SUBLETS JOB
AS JANITOR
DR.. Beck Requests That Ac-
tions of School Principal
Be Investigated
BIDS REFERRED
TO WHOLE BOARD

Twartcd in his efforts TO have
Nethl Heller ousted as acting janitor
Of Public School No. 25 because Miss
Elisabeth Schultz. the principal OF
the school. insisted that Heller be re-
tanned. Marine ". Thomas, super
visor OF 5anitors. appealed 10 the
Board OF Education last night for
assistance. This was given without
a dissenting vote when IL was ex-
planned that Hiram King. the regu-
lariy appointed janitor had subiet his
job to Heller. A new ianitor for the
school was named.
In reply 70 a question from Or. c.
A Beck. chairman OF No. 25 school
Committee, NJ. Howard Jester. sec
retary Of the board. said he did not
know Heller. that the ianitor's
checks for months had been made
out TO Hiram King.
Doctor Beck said that he felt that
Miss Schultz, the principal. had
overstepped her duties. and further
more she had ignored him in matters
pertaining to the school ever since
he was a member OF the board. He
asked that the superintendent, Doc
tor Scott, make an investigation OF
the actions of Miss Schultz in the
matter and report back to the next
meeting Of the School Board
Doctor Beck then asked that He's
ter Galloway be appointed as jani-
tor OF the school in place Of Mr..
King. which was done without any
opposition.
owing TO a number OF plumbers
and contractors submitting mixed
bids for furnishing thirteen drinking
fountains, lavatories and toilets, the
estimates were ordered tabulated
and referred back to the board as a
committee OF the wohle. Those bid
ding were Gawthrop & Bros. Stew

SALEM DENIED
HARBOR FUND
Government Appropriation
Denied For Straighten-
ing Of Salem Greek
STATE. TOWN HAD
VOTED $4,000

Federal aid for the proposed cut
or in salem river has been refused
by vote Of the Board OF Engineers
for Rivers and Harbors. according 10
communication received from
Washington by Colonel f. y. John
ston. United States Engineer for the
Wilmington district.
Colonel Johnston recommended a
survey and estimate of cost OF a cut
of. nine feet by 100. just below the
city Of Salem, but the Engineer
Board says Il is mot convinced OF
the advisabfity Of the United States
undertaking any additional improve
ment at the present time for the fol-
lowing reasons:
THE waterborne commerce has
materially decreased and appears to
be shifting from water TO rail even
though there is now a good navi-
gable channel from the mouth OF the
river to the wharves az the city OF
Salem. Little or no use seems to be
made Of the present channel
The chief advantage to naviga-
ton to result from the desired cut
of would be a saving in distance OF
Ia miles, which is not OF great inn
portance. All other benefits would
be local.
1T is not believed that the public
interest Is sufficient TO justify the
cost Of the Improvement which
would probably be four or five times
the amount proposed to be contrib
uted by local and State interests"
The Engineer Board invites all
parties interested IN the proposed
Improvement to submit within the
next 30 days statements and argu-
ments bearing upon the necessity
for the Improvement. Such state
ments should be addressed TO The
Board OF Engineers for Rivers and
Harbors. Munitions Building Wash
ington. D. c." Should a hearing be
desired It can be arranged by cor
respondence with the board.
The Salem Chamber OF Commerce
has obtained rights Of way for the
cut-off. pledged $1,000 from the city
of Salem. and Governor Edwards OF
New Jersey has signed an act au-
thorizing an expenditure By the
state OF $4,000 toward the cost Of
The improvement.

great Americans did-in log cabin.
That was October 9. 1854. In Lorain

His father wanted him TO follow
in his footsteps, behind a piow.
Myron's idea OF a career was differ
ent. He walked 15 miles to Oberlin
TO work his way through college.
His funds ran out and he had TO
quit after a year and a half. The
same thing happened later at Ohio
Wesleyan.
His first job was selling lightning
rods and dinner bells to farmers.
Herrick then taught school.
He studied law with a relative in
Cleveland and was admitted to the
bar in 1878.
He foresaw more money I'm real
estate than in law. He was success

1850: Made secretary treasurer

Cleveland. Now its chairman OF di-

Herrick won praise for sticking to
his embassy in Paris when bombs
were falling thick and fast, though
other ambassadors fed. One bomb
narrowly missed him.
Intimates of Herrick say that the
key TO his success is a keen ear to
the knock of opportunity. No mat
