Of this number 608 are in the public .schools; 675 .in . private schools. - There are 252 children that attend no school, most of these. being too_young.

Not officially, but from other sources it is learned that some business men and institutions in the borough have taken action to prevent the establish- ment of the service on the ground that postage expense will be increas- ed by reason of the fact that they will be required to place a two cent stamp on all :sealed letters for local de- livery, whereas this class of mail now requires only a cent stamp.
