The Stone Harbor Home ami School , 'Association in the year and eW it has , been in existancc has done 'r; in securing the co -operation of all in , the community interested in the wel- , • fare of the children and, in ensuring , the teacher of the support of those in , whose stead she stands. Up to the , present the rules governing the asaoci- , ation were made up as they were need- j led. This year some one seemed to i : think a eonstitution and by-laws were nectar u i y and at the month's meeting j such were formally presented and , , adopted and with only one change /rom ' | prm-dun- in the |iast: Application for:, membership is now to be made at one , meeting and acted upon at the next, , whereas in the past all who wished to j . become members and aid in the good j , work' were enrolled while the interest : | was keen. Other sailent points are: Thej, name is to be the Home and School As- i scciation ; the object is the co-operation i of all concerned in child welfare; the , third Thursday evening of the month j , and the school bouse is the time and I place of meeting; the dues arc 10 cents , | per month, and the committee on pro- , gram must provide a speaker for each , meeting. The officers elected last May , afe continued: President, Mrs. W. L. ] Turpin; vice president, Mrs. Ida May t Troxell; secretary and treasurer, Mrs. , 8. E. Herbert. I Miss A. E. Xickerson, President of . the Sea Isle Parent-Teachers' Assocla- j tion, speaker for the evening, said she , had attended many meetings of parents , and teachers for organization but this , at Stone HartKir was her first at one 1 in full operation." -Her association is of , parents and teachers, that is, of adults } Only, whereas the Stone Harbor Asso- , elation is of home and school and its t membership Includes children both In j and out of school. Fully one-half o' , t ' those present at the meeting were chil- j { dri-n -and young folks. Miss Xickerson 1 1 told of the help the National Congress 1 , of Mothers had been to her association j { and of the meeting to be held in At- , f lantic City, November 13-14 of theit State. Branch of the Congress and so | impressed those present with the good f likely to result that a motion that ap- j | plication be made for the enrollmenC of t the adult members' of the Stone Harbor Home and School as a Parent-Teachers Circle of the National Congress of Mothers, and, dues be paid from the treasury. was adopted and Miss Xickerson asked to see it through. The discussion of the meeting was upon the relative importance of the academic studies and the domestic arts ' (cooking and needlework) during the ,cooKing nmi ncuicMoiK, uuiiiig mv

school period. All fa-nred the domestic arts as being given at least a place during the school time and with instruction -and majorial provided as for other classes. Mrs. Reese P. Risley spoke of the exhibit of children's work at the County . Fair and that nothing in the whole thing interested her more. Every girl, she said, should be taught to cook and to sew, and to have a pride in being good at housework. It was her own one accomplishment and she was 1 proud of It. Miss Xickerson said one should be taught to keep house as well 1 as taught to keep school. If a girl had not the time for both algebra and cook- ■ ing, she had better drop the algebra. Miss Van Thnyne agreed with all this - but wanted more, namely, a cbint of tools In the basement and some one to instruct the boys in usintr them. (Applause). Miss Xickerson told of the Meeting of ladies interested in having sewing and cooking part of the school work, gpd Superintendent Hand with the faculty of the Sea Isle School, and ( that Mr. Hand was to call a meeting of ^ delegates from all school* in the county. "or hi' office in Court House, to or- | panize a County Council for pushing the matter. The purpose and plan was approved and Misa Alice Harris was nsm- ( ed as delegate from the Stone Harbor Home and School Association.

I FARM DEMONSTRATOR AND ,| VOCATIONAL SCHOOL | At the regular meeting of the Board ; of Freeholders at Court House on Tues- ; ; day, there were present. Prof. Agee, of, , the State Experiment Station, and "I>w- . is IL Carris, assistant commissioner of accompanied by .loaeph Camp, president of the ' Coun- • ty Board o? Agriculture and -V IV. , ' Hand, county Mipcriirtctglent of schools. Mr. Camp introduced Prof. -Agee, who I spoke upon the subject of the appoint - ' raent of a farm demonstrator for Gkpe • May County, followed by Mr. Camp. .Commissioner Carris and Superintendent Hand explained recent laws pennititiug the establishment of State -aided - ' county vocational school*. After some 1 debate the Board passed resolutions rec- j ' . ommending the appropriation of £2,000 1 for the payment of a farm demonstrator and the appointment by Judge. El- ' dredge of a county board of education 1 to consider the question of establishing ' , a vocational school in agriculture for ' i the cOunty. 'COMMISSION GOVERNMENT j MENACE : So far a» our observation has extend - ; | ed, the greatest among the many il1 lusions offered to voters for the cure ' jof all municipal ills is commission form ' of government. So far as it has been > adopted in 'South Jersey appearances are 1 ! deceptive if there is a single in- < j stance in which the dominating motive ; | foi proposing it has not been to oust ' | a - city government controlled by one ■ I faction, in order to install another con1 trolled by another faction. This is at 1 the bottom of .all of the agitation there 1 j is for it in this city. I The boasted efficiency which is said 1 ( be attained in the management of city affairs by a commission can be reached with much less expense by a city council, under the old plan, by employing proper executives. In this case there would be an opportunity every year for the people to express satisfac- - tion or dissatisfaction at the polls, whereas, under commission, it would be practically impossible to make a change ' under fotij; years. The most encouraging thing in the recent history of this 1 city, is the change for the better in the character of the city's government, all "Secomplished tinder our old charter. long as people who should be interested in a . city, like this, will take the trouble -of exerting themselves for the . purpose of remedying conditions, when | this is needed there will be no need of a change of form of government. Yf people will not interest themselves no form I of government will hinder looters from i exploiting the city for their own beno- ■ fit. If the latter class should win con- • trol un.der commission form they would have the city tied hand and foot for years.' The recall business is a de- | and a snare — it practically, HOTEL ARRIVALS COLUMBIA Philadelphia — H. L. Roberts, Mrs. Ulurkson Clothier, E. P. Ansbutz, J. C. llarr, Mrs. M. Leute, D. W.*dtloon, V.
