Orphan Home Notes
cIiffside Parks Total Now $826.80;
Subscriptions May Be Sent In Up
to July 9; School No. q Helps
Swell Total.

The Cliffside Park Committee for
the Nelson Drive held meeting on
Friday evening last at the Office of
Mayor Marini and turned the sum
raised over to the Mayor to present
to the Christian Orphan Home
The total amount raised in the bor-
ough to date is $826.S0, but subscrip-
tions sent to the Home direct or to
another borough by Cliffside Park
residents would bring it up to about
one thousand dollars.
The time limit for subscriptions
has been set for July and any
amount will be gratefully received at
the Mayors Office. go
The last subscribers, not acknawl
edged as yet, are Mrs Harriet Best
S10 E. ]. Braddon, So, and School No.
4, Grantwood, $50.
The financial aid of Mayor Marini
is gratefully acknowledged, in donat.
ing all the funds necessary for the
mailing, subscription cards, envelops.
ETC., amounting to about fifty dollars.
The funds for the recent lawn party
at the Home are still coming in with
a subscription of S25, and other sums
from the sale of some of the lace left,
etc, making to date tht sum of S495
from that party, by far the highest yet
secured any year.
The children of the Home recently
had great treat when the newly or
ganized Kiwanis Club of men in
Woodcliff came with about fifteen
automobiles and took the children for
an outing in Interstate Park and
treated them to ice cream and all the
things dear to childish hearts.
The club is already showing it's
deep interest in this fine charity
which it has taken as its special OBJ
ject.
The inmates of the Home are leav-
ing this week for the summer home
and will include this year about a
hundred children.
1t was happy thought which
prompted the principal of School No
Four, Grantwood, Miss Jane Collins,
to donate half the proceeds of the re-
cent entertainment of that school to
the Christian Orphan Home and which
has thus made an addition to the
Cliffside Park Drive of fifty dollars.
The children were very cute in their
various performances and showed the
good work done during the year, and
without special practice or undue
work on the part of any one, a credit
able entertainment was given, to the
enjoyment of the many parents and
friends present, and the children can
feel that they have materially aided
in doing good to other less fortunate
children as well as contributed fifty
dollars also to their own school treas
ury for special needs.

JOHNSONPS IDEA ABSURD,
 CLAIM OF REGISTRARS
Republican and Democrat Point Out Alleged Weaknesses In Alder
 mans Proposal to Council.

Registrars William J. Ziegler and
 Thomas J. Smith disagree with
 statements made by Alderman J. Gustav Johnson at Wednesday eve- nings session of the common coun- cl that the voting lists can be got ten out with a saving to the city if
 bids are advertised for and the job awarded to the lowest bidder.
 The registrars claim they have difficulty in getting printers to ac- ccpt the work under conditions the state statutes impose The registrars meet on the fourth Thursday before election to receive the names of 1 those who wish to be made voters, | and the seleCtmen are in session one week from the following Saturday. IThe statutes require publication of printed lists five days before the se- ectmen convene, allowing the regis trars only two days to sort and clas- sify the applications, type them, have the printers handle the compo- sition, read proof and have them
 printed and displayed. It is often necessary for the printers to work at might. Under the present plan three printers do the work, each taking two wards.
 It Is not possible 10 estimate how many will apply to be made voters and it cannot be known under how many street cIassifcations they must be placed on the lists, making it im- possible for the registrars to furnish printers with anything definite upon which to bid.
