of Its Character
Tho Penii I'li.ulcr School Is exempt
fiom taxation, aoooidlng to an opinion
Hied by Judge Shoemaker In the I'ouit of
Common l'leas No. t today. Tho court
cidcrcd that the city and school direclon
of the school district of Philadelphia and
the Receiver of Taxes be enjoined fiom
collecting tho taxes now nssesscd upon
tho teal estnlo of the fcchool.
Judge Shoemakir docieed that the com
plainant Is "an Institution of learning,
maintained bv piivato ch irlty, and that
its real estate at 8 and 10 Kouth 12th
street, used exclusively lor arhool pur
poses, Is exempt fiom taxation under tho
net of March 21, 1W. so long as the build
ings are maintained and the lecelpta from
tho school an- expended In tho manner
piovldul for In the action of tho com
plainant as set fnith In the minutes of
the corporation of November S 1113, and
tan led out liming the school j,car of
September 1, 1013. to September 1. 1011 "
Discussing the legal pilnclplcs involved,
Judge Mioemahcr said.
"In Philadelphia vs. tho Oveisecis, tho
Supremo Couit decided that tho school
house pioperty of tho complainant was
not exempt from tnxatlon as a puiely
public chailty under tho piovlslons of
tho State Constitution and tho Ait of
May II. 1W, because soven-elghth of the
locelpts of the school condULtul theieln
weio allotted to the be.idmastei, who.
after p.ijlng tbeicotit the expenses of
m.ilnt ilnliu the school, was entitled to
ictaln the balance of the leceiptH 10
malnlng as his comptnsatlon. and the
school was, tbeiefme, londucted for the
profit of en Individual "
The school oveisceis contended that the
obstacle In tho vvu of obtaining exemp
tion from taxation had been removed
when In November. 1011. It was rcenm
mended that In the futuie the headmaster
"shall not shale In an balance remain
ing out ot the icceipts of tile school after
tho pajment of expenses, but the entlio
revenue shall bo applied to Its support,
to Increase Its efficiency and to malto
necess iry repairs to Its grounds and
buildings nnd for no other purpose " This
inhuiti wns nubscnttontb approved and
tho headmaster was paid a salary by way
of compojsatlon
The Pi till Charter School was Incorpo

Pcnnsvlvama and theicafter sucesslvely
chartered by 'Wlllhim Pcnn, tho founder
of tho Commonwealth, In 1701, 170S and
1711 Tho object of tho Incorporitlon was
lo establish and maintain a public school,
"wheiein tho children of tho rich mlgl
bo cilui ltd at icasonahle rates and the
poor gratuitous."
Tho corporation consists of a board of
ovei seers of 15 persons. Tho school was
founded and endowed by private cbarit

maintained by tho tuition fees of its
scholars, liy tho Income from gifts, by
