POLICEMAN LOPER* SIDE OF IT. Policeman Ed. Loper, who has been stationed at the music pavilion all summer, feels that aa article which appeared in last we*ks issue describing fracae resulting from an attempt by a visitor to drive from the pavilion East Indian, after some argument, reflected upon him somewhat because it seemed to intimate that the police had failed in their duty in not arresting the assailant and disturbers of the < peace. After reading the article oyer < carefully we feel that* no such idea was t intended to be conveyed but nevertheless > Lo porta explanation is appropriate 1 artcTwe therefore state it. He says that ' since the infantile paralysis scare has I agitating the country, his chief i at the pavilion ' has been to keep i off children under sixteen years of age i and this ties him pretty tightly to the > entrance. He knew nothing of. the frac- 1 until it was over, but when informed I of it, he hastened to the scene and, 1 after working his way through the dense < crowd, questioned a number of people, I who had been present and who had wit- i nested the affair, but no one would come 1 with the slightest information. < we all ^now, this is the typical attitude of people upoq such occasions. • definite charges ss a basis for ■ action. Sir. Loper could not of course, ' proceed since he had not himself seen 1 the disturbance. w 1Yq have no hesitation in saying that ' Loper has been a creditable polioe 1 representative of the city' during the • summer art the pavilion, and so far as observation has extended has perhis ' full duty.

ACROBATS ATTRACT CROWDS . The Labor Day crowds were entertained to no small extent by the acrobatic t feats at three amateur acrobats of Gert attn town, Philadelphia. These young men arc wdl known here having prev- R ■ iously summered tore and were Walter - E. Buswell. William B. Drew, and WiUiam B. McKozotor, who ore all 1B|bers of the American Red Orate Ufe , Saving Corps. The Holiday throng was extremely ia- [ te rested <n hba various stunts thaf , these young men performed, great ^ crowds assembling nearly before they gj ■topped their acrobatic work and took ^ their dip in the surf. ^ [ VALUE OF COUNTY VOCATIONAL ^ SCHOOL. " The irst 'ear of the county voca- J dj agriculture closes on I w _ October Jlst^nd the second ^eer be- V1 ! gins November let. One point of difference totv-een the usual public school e( _ and the vocational school is that the 5 latter continues during the entire calm- m ^ dar year, while the former runs for 39 or forty weeks of five days each. JFhe in- 9, e tractors in the rocational school leave cl ) their classes in agriculture in March, j, j but during the balance of the year they find their scboob> in the projects in the _. ^ fields carried on b<^ their pupils, . to- K cause the taaching^in the class room is jg followed by the application in the field, j of the knowledge gained. In order to •, be as valuable to the sounty and as g, practical as possible in his work,, Mr. p, Stackhouse, the principal of the school j has been applying himself during the past month to battling with one of the farmer's great scourges, the hog cholera, j which /seems to be ape-eading. Hei has provided the serum for inoculation against this disease and his own serri- c] . ces in applying it and also In teaching e his students how to apply it . The only , charge has been the cost of the serum, j He has inoculated some hundreds,of hogs j and as this is the one effective treatment • .. and preventive he has probably saved c x the farmers of the county an amount _t equal to or greater than the entire cost j of the school for one year. The inK atruction given on the subject will be, „ aisu, a continuing benefit,, because it t will Isafff lb continuous preqauti>n i/1 the raising ol hoga. " # - .
