W. 1NOTICE ' The Twentieth Birthday Anniversary of the Teachers ' Ketirement Fund of the State of New Jersey will be celebrated on Saturday, March 11th, 1916, at the Young Men's Christian Associa- . tien, Newark, by a reception from four to seven o'clock p. m. to Miss Elizabeth A. Allen and Mrs. Annie E. Moore, the two living members of the original committee of three which organized on a Jlbboken street corner one noon -day in 1890 to devise some plan whereby aged, broken down and poverty-stricken public school teachers might be saved -the bitter shame of the poor house or .cold charity, and whereby the schools might be relieved of teachers of im- ; paired efficiency. The third member of -the committee, Miss Jane McCausland, has passed into tbe Great Beyond. Mrs. .Moore and Miss Allen are now principals in Hoboken, and Miss Allen is secretary of Fund Board of Trustees. • There will be a mass meeting at 8.00 o'clock p. m.

Stokes, a Senator who favored the ■ measure, and who has championed the ■ Fund ever since; the Honorable Robert H.'

Minturn, who has always, in ' the Legislature and outside of it, sup- l ported the Fund. Other speakers will i be announced later.

KEEP OYSTERS BY FREEZING. j Preserving shell oysters in cold storage has been successfully tried by Opt. Frederick Ockers of West Sayville. "I am convinced that frozen oysters will live for a great length of time," be says. "They will practically be in state of suspended animation and can be kept indefinitely until wanted. Then they* may be gradually thawed hack to life." , Captain Ockers' idea is that during' ^ suspended animation their condition ( will be similar to that of the frog , ' frozen in a cake of ice. Captain Oek- | ers believes that oysters can be put , into the freezer in April or any other ' time when they are' in prime condition and held for a favorable market. He has made successful experiments up , to six weeks, and believes that if an oyster can be frozen for six weeks and . still live the process may be extended ; indefinitely. 1 After .all, this old world is big enough 1 to give every man a place in the sun for many a year to come. The arith- . ' metic man has figured out that there 1 are 1,600,000,000 people en earth today. . If Brazil were as thickly populated as - England, it would have 1,900,000,000 1 population. And the are twelve tfther counutries in South America besides Brazil Don't despair, young man. , There is room for you to do big things . in this world if you have it in you. — Trenton Gazette. 1 ■ 1 .
