One is the Clara Barton School, built at an early date, and later moved to its present site at Crosswicks and Burlington Streets. It was used by Miss Barton in 1844 for her first public school.

The desk and chair used by Miss Barton are still in the building, which is now owned and maintained by the New Jersey State Board of Education. Miss Barton, who founded the American Society of the Red Cross in 18-73 after a trip to Switzerland, was president of the organization until 1904. She died in 1912. Bordentown, on the Delaware River, may be reached via State Routes Nos. 25 and 37.

Price $2.50 per year plus 15 cents mailing charge; 25 cents per month plus 10 cents These tubes are placed in "repeater stations" every 50 miles or so along telephone circuits to "boost" your voice waves when they tire from travel, so that your words arrive clearly and naturally. When you talk to Europe, South America or Australia, your voice waves are stepped up millions of times and hurled overseas by huge water-cooled amplifier tubes. Today thanks to continuous telephone research and development you can send your voice to almost anyone anywhere quickly, easily, cheaply. After 7 at night and all of Sunday, reduced rates apply on calls of over 50 miles. Then you can TALK 100 miles for 3 5c and 400 miles for 80c (3-minute station-to-station rates within the United States).
