T h e S ch o o l E lectio nA s representative a group o f voters as

has participated in a school election here in nearly a decade— 1,336 to be exact— went to the polls Tuesday and gave the Board o f Education a ‘ ‘vote o f confidence" on their previous stand on .th e school dental clinic and also approved the board’s proposal to acquire property in fear o f the. high school for development for physical education pur­poses.and all budget items. ,

W hile the vote on the dental clinic was about as close as it possibly could have been, nevertheless a margin o f tw o votes in an election or tw o runs in a ball game is as conclusive as a landslide - in' deciding the victor. .The issue was decided, as it should have been ,-in 'a democratic manner.—(

The election saw tw o incumbents,- W il­liam J. Fredrick and Richard J. V ogt, re-1 turned to office for one o f the three-year and the one-year terms, respectively, and two new members, Mrs. E. G. Earhart and Dr.' R . P. Ferguson, elected to the other two; three-year terms. W e congratulate the vic­tors and wish for them a pleasant term in serving their fellow townspeople as members o f the Board o f Education.

All-in-all; the election elicited far more interest from townspeople than has been shown in a school meeting in many years and we believe it would be. a healthy condi­tion to continue to submit all controversial ' issues to the voters'. » ____ : ...

Dear Sir: __ ' .The recently published Intention o f

the Jersey Central Railroad to re­move 72 trains from its schedule . should be given serious consideration by all. residents o f our community. The railroad contends that only 18H of the commuters will be adversely affected. I wonder? .

' In defense o f the action the railroad declares that it to acting upon a sug­gestion o f the Office o f Defense

-Tri>nsptnt»tion;^t«Si-l»etlrtate*:,thei' movement o f tremendous quantities of essential wartime freight, at a time when manpower and equipment are at a premium. Granting that these factors force action to relieve con­gestion as a wartime expedient, it is certain we will all cooperate to the fullest extent as a further contribu­tion to the war effort. However, one very important. item is lacking all through the notices of the proposed reduction. When, if ever, will the present schedules be resumed? Cran­ford is a residential community and its future to largely-dependent upon its attractiveness to commuters.

Are we to accept this change in the hope that a future suggestion to in­crease schedules will meet with the same enthusiasm as this one? Maybe in the post war period some govern-4", ment agency will b e ' empowered to force thc return to present schedules?

Very truly yours, .. H. M. STAIGER, JR.

o f Dimes campaign to beneflt the National Foundaticalfor-fnfantUe Paralysis, it was announced this n d l by Postmaster William D'Arcy, chairman. The in i |

This is the time of year when a great, many gar­deners start plans for coldframes and hotbeds.,. A l­

- though hotbeds are a time-honored institution and one that has made it possible to start plants early for many long years, there ls.no getting away from the fact that they necessitate a lot o f work. Work involves time, - and time is something everyone I s particularly anxious to conserve on these busy war days. Moreover, it to almost impossible to obtain heating manure for hot­beds now. /'Heating them electrically to an expensive'proposition and the frames must be well insulated. Coldframes are a dlflWSftsjpatter. They are much more TJractical, even Though their use necessitates starting seed later in the season. . '

A coldframe to nothing m ore nor less than a box covered with glass, and your county agricultural agent- will bd glad to give you directions tor maktag one as well as Information oh how to operate i t l f l i a comparatively easy .matter to build a frame, afid with Its assistance you can raise practically all the plants you w ill need this spring, and do it with excellent results.. . A four foot sash It noW available on-the market, and it is much,easier to handle than the regulation s ix - foot sash. It may be managed by xme person, with little o r no danger o f breakage. The. average home gardener w ill find a frame m ade o f a three or four- foot sash adequate for hit needs if it to used wisely, and It w ill probably not only furnish all the plants he w ill need but a few extras to' give away too.

-Hardy annuals (including such vegetables as cab­bage, kohl-rabl, lettuce, etc.) can -be sown in, cold- frames the latter part o f February provided the glass is covered at night to retain the heat that has accumu­lated during the day. Glass abeorbsheat In the day­time and radiate* it lust as fast, i f not faster, at night; so in order to conserve this valuable heat, the co ld - frame must have its glass covered every night- If. this precaution to taken, it to.unudly possible to protect the frame from any danger o f frost, from March right on Into spring. A sheet-ot waterproof wall board, a mat o f straw, or on e -o f the coverings available through seedsmen win do the trick ./ Old carpets, quilts or blankets m ake: satisfactory Coven, too. Many com-, merclal growers use salt hay, but it must be forked on and o il each night and morning—a task that requires m ore time than the home gardener may have available. -

Be sure to make some plan fo r fastening the glass down when you are constructing your coldframe. Some gardeners wire the sash or use hook and eye. . If this to /lo t done a heavy wind may blow the sash off the frame and cause considerable! damage. Heavy stakes or wire w ill also be needed to fasten down the covering you w ill put on the frame at night

A coldframe constructed now-and carefully cov­ered at night w ill thaw the soil so that it w ill be ready for planting about the first: week in March. Select a spot in the garden where there to water available, for frames covered with sash'require more water than the open ground needs. The soil in which seeds are t o ' be sown should riot be too rich; I f it is decidedly poor, a light, coat o f well rotted manure dug into the soil or a small amount o f fertilizer w ill, enrich It sufficiently

as a light covering for tile seeds after they are sow n .'.. . Hardy anniials sown. in coldframes toward. the last of February or the first o f March should produce . study plants that can be set out In April. They can be followed by the hot weather material—dahlias, zinnias, and the like— and’ these will provide sturdy plants for setting out in 'M ay. . ■

1 Hls decision-on when and how to prune to deter­mined ipbrtly b y the gardener's knowledge o f plants, partly 'by .his experience and good Judgment

Pruning in winter has Its advantages. There to more time available for the Job, and since there to no foliage to contend with,_the gardener can see exactly What he to doing. Pruning at this season should be largejy a matter o f thinning out almost to the’ ground, those parts which have lost their usefulness. As a general rule, after a cane to three, four,*or five years old it no longer produces flowers In proportion to the space it occupies. Hence It should be taken out to make room for. younger, more vigorous renewal wood developing from the base o ( the plant. A ll dead wood should be removed, o f cmirse. *Tf systematic, regular pruning has been neglected, removing at one time all the wood that should come out m ay upset the plant's balance and result in too much succulent growth. In such cases, .only about half the wood to be removed should be taken out In any one year. Make a two or three year Job o f putting the plant back in good shape. Little cutting back need be done at titis season. Per­haps the top o f a plant may requiro thinning out to admit more sunlight into the center,. Only shoots that are too long and ungainly should be cut back. Rut-terflybush should be cut back heavily, as a general rule. Rose ot Sbaroh should have weak wood <- cut out, andany wood whose removal w ill help to lmproVe the

-framework o f the plant Then (he new growth can becut back a third to a half. With __blue-pink kinds, however) weak w ood can be thinned.

J BUDGET STATEMENT . »Improved tax collections within the year of levy, also increased

ratable*s of $210,000X0 and in addition surplus cash available for appropria­tions,-make it* possible to maintain an estimated.;tax rate of $4.00. The Township requirements, for all purposes is about equivalent to 1942. require- nents,'notwithstanding a 10% bonus being paid to all employees. .

The Township is not justified in anticipating revenue from the re­demption of liens in 1944 to the extent that occurred in 1943. Neither is it pustifled. in anticipating any net increase in new ^mluations as a result 6f pew building. Building will be restricted to a greater extent than in 1943. [Any increase that may result from new buildings should be used foryalua- Rion adjustments on some of the older buildings. . '/

-Therefore, if the Township o f Cranford is to maintain approximately $4.00 tax rate it w ill be necessary to temporarily freeze the budgets at

Ihcir 1943 levels until normal building is resumed. / ' ,

, Lightning RadaWhen lightning strikes a lightning

rod there is a noise which ia the sound o f an electrical discharge. The purpose o f a lightning rod. is to offer an easy path for the light­ning to get to the ground, or to dis­charge the cloud which has collect­ed charges o f electricity. Usually a rod has several sharp points, and if there is a concentrated charge in thrferpvefeleetrieityln thsvicinity of the rod these points tend to dis­charge the cloud ' slowly, thereby preventing a violent discharge which We call “ Ughtnihg.”

Great Historical BattleOne o f the’ great battles of history

was fought in Apulia, Italy, in 316 B. C., during the Second Punic war. At Cannae, near the modem seaport o f Barletta,' the Carthaginians de­feated the far-superior forces of Rome fay the cleverness of their lead­er, HannibaL Hannibal’s tactics of outflanking arid encircling the enemy on that occasion have been , called the forerunner of the present-day, large-scale pincer movement.

, - ' Old World ~In many old sections o f Palermo,

between the broad, new boulevards, traditional ways of life endure. Side street imarionette theaters present chivalrie plays with the Crusades as their usual theme. Modern mech­anized transport had not displaced the two-wheeled peasants’ carts, meriiorable for their gaily painted wheels and bodies decorated with scenes from the Bible, legend, or history.

' Gas Accidents; Accidents with guns continue year

after.year to be an important cause o f midden death. Most o f these ac-. cidents could be avoided if people would always assume that the gun Is loaded and act accordingly. This would eliminate at once most “ horse play'’ ..tragedies with . firearms.

Mine FatalitiesLast year 1,480 men were killed

i t the coal mines, and 70,500 were injured.
