EDUCATION Dimes
Continued from page 1

in advance of the election. Being Mr..
Everett's first speech before the board,
he was given the best of attention and
made fine impression. Mr.. Everett
impressed the board of the great ne
cessity of giving out what the public
ought to know on all matters con-
nected with the boards activities.
The taxpayers were entitled to know
what's going on all the time. 1t would
save great deal of cost and trouble
if this course were pursued.
The members of the board at the
dinner were: Professor Hall, Lally
Frank, Herbert Everett, John Kelly,
Richard Fox, William Korzinek, James
Aiken, Charles Velsey, Harry Dietrich,
Edward A. Kenny, DR.. Schmidt, Pro-
fessor Burns, James Wyland, Profes-
sor William Sparkling, athletic coach.
The other guests were Elliott Under
wood, of the Edgewater News, and
Charles T. Logan, of The Palisadian.
Both of the guests were invited to
make talks and responded briefly. The
retiring members of the board were
Messrs. Velsey. Fox and Kelly, the
incoming ones Messrs. Mileham and
Everett. Mr.. Regorria, member of
the board resigned and Mr.. Kelly was
selected in his place and made clerk.

New Jersey Cities
All Fast Growing

Washington, D. c., March 2S.-The
population of Hackensack, on July l.,
will be 1890, an increase of 1903
since the census was taken in 1920,
when it was 1867, the Census Bu-
reau stated today.
The population of the other prin-
cipal cities in New Jersey as deter
mined by the 1920 census and as es-
timated by the Census Bureau for
July, 1928:
Elizabeth, 1920, 95,6S2; July 1, 1928,
103,947. Jersey City, 297,S64; 3O9,-
OS4. Newark, 414,216; 43S.699. Pas
sale 63,S41: Gill. Atlantic City
50,7O7; 52,349 South Amboy, 41,7O7;
45,162. Hackensack, 1867; 1890.
Camden, 116,309; 4,157. Trenton,
1929; 127,39O. Paterson, 135,S45;
1859.
These estimates announced by the
Census Bureau are not the result of
actual door to door counts, but are
adduced from careful calculations
made by the census statistical ex-
ports.
The Bureau has been making these
estimates from time to time, and with
amazing accuracy it has turned out
afterwards, except in some isolated
cases where because of unusual in
dustrial circumstances there have
been very unusual increases or de-
creases.--Hackensa Record.

ORIGINAL HORSE HAD CLAWS
Skeletons of Prehistoric Animals Show
That Nature Gave Them Some
what Strange Equipment.

Seventeen skeletons of the sO-caliAd
"Clawed Horse" of prehistoric tim0
from the Agate Spring fossil quarry OF
western Nebraska have been placed
in storage, for lack of exhibiting space,
at the American museum of natural
history, New York.
The varied skeletonic combinations
of Moropus and deductions therefrom
are described by Professors Osborn
and Matthew, as follows:
THE Moropus was distant rela-
tive of the rhinoceros, the tapir, and
the horse. 1t is about the size of a
rhinoceros but very different in
form; the head and neck are like
those of the horse. The rounded back
resembles that of tapir, and the
legs, although massive like those of
the rhinoceros. are much longer. The
teeth and feet are very distinctive.
The teeth show that the animal
browsed ON vegetation.
"Moropus belongs with rhinOceros,
issodactyls, or hOofed mammals with
an odd number of toes on the hind
foot. The ruminants, camels, pigs and
hippopotamuses have an even number
of toes either two or four. MorOpus
has three toes. The feet with their
great claws are more like those OF
ant eaters and similar digging man.
mails than of any of the hoofed man.
mails to which Moropus really belongs.
1t is suggested that the claws were
designed to aid in scraping away the
sand in dry river beds or other suit
able places to obtain drink"

Home of Giant Creatures.

The giant rat of the Solomon islands
is remarkable animal--a great, fierce
creature, much bigger than rabbit,
and causing endless mischief to
plantations and stores. Another ami
NAL giant is bull-frog, seldom
found less than two and half to
three pounds in weight. and with a
croak as mighty in volume as size.
Another giant is an oyster, a tough
but still edible mollusc, that covers
a large-size dinner plate. One is
quite enough for meal, and 1t is
eaten with knife and fork, like a
steak.
Animals are not plentiful, but fish
and birds abound In great varieties
There are many kinds of pigeons, in
Guiding one Of great beauty of plumage
with long tail, and unknown in any
other part Of the world.

Snails and Screws.

Nearly all inventions have been sug-
gested by natural objects.
Fremont, of the French School of
Mines, points out an interesting ex-
ample in the case Of the screw, the
fundamental idea Of which, he be-
lieves, was suggested TO primitive
man by the spiral shape of the edible
snail.
1t was not the shape of the shell
that suggested the screw, but the
spiral motion which it is necessary to
give to the body of the snail in order
to withdraw it from the shell. This
at once showed that an object Of a
screw shape embedded in a solid pow
erfuly resisted attempts to withdraw
1t by straight pull.
The hint was enough, and the
screw became one Of the earliest Of
mans inventions.

Upshaw Speaks in

Congressman William ID. Upshaw,
of the Atlanta (Sixth) Georgia, Dis
trict, will deliver an address on Sun
day evening at the Grantwood Con-
gregational Church on the subject,
christian Citizenship and Easter
Dedication" Congressman Upshaw
is one of the most powerful speakers
in the lower house, and has reputa-
ton as a great orator. Rev. Gauss
had some difficulty in getting the
distinguished congressman to come
to Grantwood, but he wired on
Wednesday from Atlanta that he
would be pleased to come. Mr.. Up
shaw recently spoke in Paterson and
received great demonstration.
There should be a great audience to
hear him in Grantwood Sunday night

Net loss to hospital in the serv-
ice of Cliffside and Grant
wood ..:............. 81 1871
Cliffside and Grantwood in one year
has occupied an average of 1.9 beds.
Cliffside and Grantwood in six years
has occupied an average of 8 beds.
Cliffside and Grantwood must pro-
vide beds for the care of it's own sick.
At least two beds should be built in
the new hospital by and for the people
of Cliffside and Grantwood.
This can be done only by the COM
bined effort of all of the people of
Cliffside and Grantwood.
Every patient served by the hospi-
tai in 1922 cost the hospital $500 per
day.
In 1922 the hospital served over
5000 patient days for which it was
paid nothing.
In 1922 the hospital rendered in
service over $4,000 more than it was
paid by patients.
Patient days increased in 1922 over
1900 and in the last six years $780,
during which time there has been no
increase in bed space.
:. In the last six years over 1900
babies were born in the hospital, 1888
in 1922.
Practically a new hospital will be
constructed.
Each town at present in the hospital
district is accorded the privilege of
building a sufficient number of beds
for the care of it's sick.
If every town avails itself of this
privilege, 105 new beds will be built
at an average cost of $6,500 per bed.

But still she hasn't come. So the
