One of the Organization's
Final Meetings.
THE VMINOTN RULE I
Biceptlons Which picet With the Srntt
meats of the Schnol Director. Tho
Physical Cnariltlun or Chllilreu Hunt lie
Taken Into Consideration.
Tho next to the Inst regulnr meeting of
tho present School llonrd was held last
evening nt which the following directors
were present : Messrs. Conry, Davenport,
O'llenru, Burke, Devitt, Ogden, Titmnn,
Mnnley, Gnllngher, Hnnua, Lynch, Dren
nnn, Muldocm nnd Treziso. The meeting
wns n short one nnd very few important
topics were discussed. Tho principal
topics were the exoneration lists of tax
collectors and tho vaccination rules.
Superintendent Whitaker mnde his
monthly report showing tho following
statistics : Term enrolment boys, 1320;
girls, 1-107; total, 2TCO; monthly enrol
ment boys, 1143; girls, 1295; total, 2438;
average dally nttendnuce, hoys, 1)72; girls,
1075; total, 2147; percentage of attendance,
boys, 00; girls, 87; average, 89; number of
pupils present every session, 592; number
of visits by citizens, ICS; number of visits
by directors, 32.
The superintendent's report concluded :
"Tho onlor for vaccination is complied
with. While many children have been
obliged to romiiu a few days out of school
on account of sore wins, it is gratifying
to llnd that there is scarcely any opposi
tion to the rule by parents."
Chnirman Lynch, of tho High School
Committee, made a report concerning the
disposition of the complaints against
some of tho pupils of the High School, a
full report of which was given in tho
HEItALD when the cases were disposed of.
The committee on text books and sup
plies made a report showing that the
money thus far spent for books and sup
plies to comply with tho new Inw amounts
to 14,437.18.
Tho board decided to meet on Thursday
night nnd every night for tho halnnce of
this week to complete a review of tax
exoneration lists. The board will moetas
n committee of the whole.
Before tho board adjourned Superin
tendent Whitaker presented a series of
questions as to how lie should act in
enforcing the vncdnation ordinance.
First, There nro some children who, on
account of physical condition, it is not
safe to vaccinate. Should the rule be
enforced to tho letter In such cases t
Second, Some children get vaccinated,
but it does not take. Would it be right
to exclude these chlldien from the
schools f
Third, Some people having more than
ono child, get that child vaccinated and
use n part of the eruption to vaccinate
their other children. Such people cannot
give n pnysician's certincato. w
bo done t
Fourth. Some neonlo In town nro vnrcl-
nating children and are not regulnr
physicians. What shall bo done f
Mr. Whitaker added that ho had in
structed tonchers that where children
show old vaccination marks they shall be
deemed entitled to admisshm to Mm
schools, even though tho marks bo over
seven years old as that appeared to bo
tho sentiment of the board at its last
meeting.
No formal action wns taken by the
board on any of the questions or the
latter statement, but It was the senti
ment of the meeting thnt tho superin
tendent's instructions to the teachers was
a correct one.
As to question Xo. 1 it was the senti
ment of the board that where a physic
ian's certificate is produced showing
that the physical condition of a child is
such ns to make vnccinntinn dangerous,
thnt child shall not be required to comply
with tho rule; provided, that should
small-pox mnko Its nppearnnco In tho
town tho child must bo vaccinated, or
remain suspended from the schools.
As to question No. 2 the board's senti
ment was that where a child is operated
upon two or three times and tho vaccina
tion does not take a certiflcnto from a
physician thnt attempts to make n
vaccination effective have been mnde will
entitle children to admission to the
schools.
On question No. 3 tho sentiment of tho
board did not seem to be clearly expressed,
although tho question seemed to drift
under tho sanctioned instructions of tho
superintendent that where children bear
tho vaccination mark they are within the
bounds, independent of tho source of
operation ; nnd, of course, thnt Implied
understanding disposed of the fourth
question.
Tho Inst regular meeting of the present
School Board will be held on tho first
Wednesday of May. The new board will
bo organized on Jnno 4th.

Hundreds of schoul children flocked to
tho cellar where stood HUlan's drug store

during dinner hour yesterday. The at
traction was the hundreds of old bottles

injk.u the discovery was an enterprising
young chap who waited until the watch
man's eyes were in another direction.
Ho then dropped noisele-sly Into the

with n bottle bulging from each pocket.
The news of tho llnd spread like wildfire
and in n few minutes hundreds of boys
aud girls wero upon the scene, upsetting
boxes, old lumber, poking everywhere
for tho coveted bottle, and leaving the
place with more old glass than they will
know what to do with In six months.
Tho wntchman smiled grimly and said
nothing, the druggist doubtless believing
it an excellent way to be rid of worthless

Til - Itiirouglii'H Uroat Need,
Kditois tlnii.u.P: Onco more touching
tho matter of tho great and urgent need
of this borough for more electric lights,
permit mo again to urge Council to treat
tho petitions of citizens asking for tho
same with liberality. Slioiiamloah Is the
town of tliis county with the largest popu
lation nnd extending over as extensive
territory as any other, save perhaps one,
and it is lighted with only thirty-nine
lights costing 3M per month, which is $0
per light. The pollco pay roll Is not the
borough's heaviest items of expense, iu
nsmuch as the force is small and the
salaries low, and the Borough Council
can well afford to expend a littlo
more towards creating that greatest of
auxiliaries to our night patrolmen light
This is a question of the greatest im
portance and every Councilman, each ono
of whom is asked to remember that the
honor of his position was not thrust upon
him, but was sought under nn implied,
and in many cases, an express promise
that, he would legislate for the taxpayers'
and citizens' lienellt, Is hereby solicited to
give every petition for new light that
sumo attention that he would give to a
persoual request for assistance by a mem
ber of his family, or nn appeal to aid tho
