Worth It if It Costs a Million

We have been informed that in our editorial on moMpiito extermination last week we weir incorrect in stating that $40,000 would finish the job. We based our figures on a news article that appeared in the same i**ue which quoted Or. Headi Ite •‘'tate Entomologist, as saying there were eight million feet of ditching to be dug at a cost of onehalf cent a foot. On that basis $40,000 would

have been correct.

However, if the coat is $400,000, instead «! $40X100, we stand by everything we said regarding the ®4»rtaiiie oi exterminating the mosquito. It. it costs a million or more :o rid ourselves of that pest it will be well worth it, and the county would quidrlr get it hack in increased real estate values and increaaed influx of visitors.

The buses are not the only competitor> of the railroads. The privately owned automobile was and still is one of their most serious competitors, j Several years ago the railroads must have seen j thr handwriting written on the wall bv the rapidlv increasing automobile. They ignored it. Then along came the bus. Strong competition, which they also refused to notice, or at least endeavor to combat, until a tew weeks ago. Now because a mii ade doesn't happen in a few weeks they are going to cut their schedules. Patience is a cardinal virtue and we recommend to thr railroad*.

False Economy To Be Avoided Adopting a current exp< ice school budget of $5,000 on a vote of 41 to 32. Upper Township, at a special election Frida)', voted down an appropriation of $10,000 for repairs and mainteiunce 41 to 38. Tim despite the fact the combin'd current expense and repair item* totaled two thousand dollars less than the 1927 school appropriarion*. V .n leaves the seven school houses of Upper Township in a pretty pickle, unless the money can be borrowed in some way from thr State, for the $10,000 was to be used to.install a heating MWem m Turkabor School, water systems in the other >citools and make varous nriruarv repair*. The folks who voted against tl>e $10,000 errtamly did not comprehend the disastrous results that would ensue, for if they had they would aurely have passed the needed appropriation. The previous day the Borough of Woodbine voted against a $13,500 budget that would have provided the addition of a commercial course to the High School curriculum, passing, instead, a $10,000 budget. As a commercial course is »» . caaentu! as any other High School course it would aeem that in Woodbine, too. there were folks who failed to realize just what they - Extravagance in nhool avoided as much as waste «, however. falae eronorm in educational
