It is too big a sum, and the school | @ystem has too big a plant, to be administered haphazard. School boards elsewhere know the value of a business manager. The plan has worked well in Elizabeth. Richard B. Clement, Super- intendent of Schools in the New Jersey city, says in his annual report: | “Our Board of Education empioys a business manager who devotes siz days each week in the discharge of the duties of his office. He fs capable and conscientious, eminently practical and well informed, | 4s a close student of conditions, and is constantly employed in plan- ning or in supervising repairs or betterment in or about our school- bouses.” There is no adequate business management here, and can be expert with a citizens’ committee.

The Decisive Blow and Victory DESPATCH was handed to England’s Prime Minister, Lord North, one day late in 1781. He glancet at its Antencs, Then, Secording to a court chronicler of the day, “staggered back ward, as though he had received a buliet in the chest, throw. ing up Ais arms and crying ‘Lost! All is Icst A blow had just been struck that wrecked Lord North's career, tore the American colonies from England's grasp and gave our country Liberty. For years the patriots had fought a superior foe. They could not cope Therefore, Washington, whenever he could, had avoided open clash and hed contented bimself with tactics that dragged the war along for years at the greatest possible cost td the enemy and the least possible strain t the colonies. He knew that a nation’s heart is often bound up in ite pocketbook. Also that war is the most expensive of luxuries, and that ft means heavy extra taxes. Thus he believed he could make the English people rebel against such taxation and demand that the war end. He was right in his idea. Little by little, Parliament and the British public w tired of the endless drain on their pu: and at last clamored for Stroyed the last hope of the colonies, He returned to New the task of 4 tating the South.

(One thirteen-year-old boy, beaten and turned out of his cabin home at this time, lived to pay the ith interest. He was Andrew Jackson.) Blundering old Gen. Gates, the ~ hero (7) of Saratoga, was sent against the British, Cornwallis thrashed Gates's army. Butyabler patriot leaders were sent in tis place. The horrors practised by the redcfats upon the Carolinians did not subdue the gallant colonists there, Instead, such treatment aroused them to fresh resistance Soon Cornwailis was riven north {nto Virginia. There he encamped behind strong fortifications at Yorktown, Washington, meantime, had been menacing New York from the north, making Clinton believe he was about to swoop down on that city. Then suddenly he marched at top speed around New York and southward with all his forces and was well on hia way toward Virginia before Clinton guessed his intention, wa This perhaps, the crowning move of Washington's countless brilliant martial .

With forty-five pieces to @raw from, every express station could be equipped with rush hour music, employees’ carrying cornets, trombones, flutes, drums and cym- bale.
