President Willcox of the Board of
Education reminded the people of
State η isiand tnat as president of the
Board oi education he couia not urge
the wants of ins own boiougli, but
must consider the needs oi an uie bor
oughs impartially, lie had, therefore,
not urged the completion of Curtis
until wnat seemed to him more press
ing educational needs had been taiten
care of. lie was glad to say, however,
that the turn of Curtis seemed to have
come now and while money was dif
ficult to get- and no money for new
schools could be obtained, he was very
hopeful that money might be provideu
in the 1917 budget for such an addi
tion to Curtis as would supply the
workshops, classrooms, and gymnas
ium needed and an auditorium which
would serve not only the needs of the
school but as a centre for the social
activities of the Island.
Commissioner Martin said that he,
I like other Staten Islanders, had waited,
irritated and exasperated, for the com
pletion of Curtis, but that as a member
of the board he could only co-operate,
with President Willcox in his impartial j
consideration of the needs of the en- j
tire city.

MAYOR HASMARRIED 50
COUPLES; END FREE US!
Mayor Ferd Garretson's free mar
riage list is henceforth suspended. He
has performed his fiftieth marriage
I ceremony since he began offlce as the
I city's chief executive. No doubt there
1 are other future brides and bride
grooms who will seek the services of
; Mayor Garretson as a knot-tier be
! fore he goes out of office December
31. These he will probably refer to
! Mayor-elect John F. Ten Broeck,
ι who takes up the reins of mayor on
January 1, next.
Forty-six couples had been united
in marriage by Mayor Garretson a
month ago. He then announced that
he was anxious to make the number
of unions an even fifty before going
out of offlce and would therefore
marry the next four couples to pre
sent themselves before him free of
charge. He was requested to perform
three ceremonies in less than three
weeks. The fourth of the balance
and fiftieth during his regime came
this week.
The mayor will now rest upon his
laurels as a knot-tier, and it is unlikely
that he will perform any more tieing.
As a joiner In the bonds of matrimony
Mayor Garretson has proven to be- ont
of the best hereabouts. This evidence
by the fact that the smiling counten
ances of whose for whom he has acted
repeatedly appear to greet him. The
fiftieth and last couple came to seek
his services upon recommendation of
two who had been married by him last
August. The August bride and bride
groom seemed to be happy in the
thought of having brought their
friends to the mayor and gave evidence
of their marriage having been a thor
oughyl successful one.

Special to the EVEN1S G NEW8
Trenton, Dec. 14:—Two owners of
