Palisades Park.

Palisades Park.
If this peaceful and attractive little
town on the western slope OF the
wonderful Palisades has a past in the
annals of the Dutch settlers, it no less
certainly has a future unless all signs
fail. The past year as one looks
back, has been one of unusual growth
and progress, not SO much in popula-
ton but along social and religious
lines. 1t is just one year since our
deservedly popular pastor, Mr.. Gro
zier, began his ministrations here,
and in that time the town seems to
have walked up in an astonishing
manner. Clubs and societies of all
kinds have certainly put their best
foot forward as if to show the new
conner that we are thoroughly alive
and up to date. The new school
house has been completed and is just
opened for business, while greater
interest in education is manifested by
the fact that there is now choice of
three nearby high schools for the
public school graduates to attend.
Hackensack and Englewood have
long been friendly rivals in this re-
gard and now our neighbor on the
south, Ridgeheld, has inaugurated a
partial High School course, and is
making bid for our patronage. This
competition should prove a healthy
sign of progress, provided the new
school maintains the high standard
set by the two well-established ones.
! 1t places a good deal of responsibility
upon our grammar school principal
! Mr. Armstrong, to advise rightly the
pupils under his charge, but it is al
most certain to stimulate these boys
and girls to a more extended educa-
ton. Strange to say, only small
percentage heretofore have continued
their studies beyond the grammar
school
This community has been deeply
saddened by the death on Friday, Aug.
p, OF Miss Nettie Moore, daughter
OF Mr.. S. H. Y. Moore, of Leonia. A
lingering illness of two years brought
out all the patient sweetness of her
nature, and She has left behind a host
of sorrowing friends Funeral ser
vices were held at the home Monday
evening, conducted by the Rev. Mr..
Tamblyn, OF the Presbyterian Church
in Leonia There was a beautiful
array of floral offerings.
Company L, of the 5th New Jersey
Regiment, attended the recent annual
encampsent at Sea Grit The com
pany was under command of Captain
Gismond, and includes number of
young men from Palisades Park.
They report a pleasant time.
The Whist Club will open its sea-
son October for the ladies, who
play on alternate Wednesday after
moons, and at about the same time the
mixed club of ladies and gentlement
will begin its season of Saturday
evening meetings. Both clubs are in
a highly fourishing condition.

H. Ho to the time of their embark

nouvre proved to be.
In order to attain the objective,
poeton the invading force, otherwise
tnown as the "Red" army, had to van
or;sb or in some manner render IN
socuous the forces of the defenders,
atherwise known as the "Blue" army.
After three days the outposts OF the

though no official report has yet been
made by the umpires, it is quite gen
erally conceded that the Reds main
tained the advantage which they had
gained on Wednesday, and that, theo-
fetcally, they being between the
Blues and Boston, the city was at
their mercy. So much for the chron-
iCle; and now to the criticism.
Imprimis-It was impressed upon
the Reds that the manouvres were
theoretical, that they were, theoreti-
taly, foes of the Blues, that theoreti-
cly they were to pillage, burn, de
stroy and kill with their theoretical
bullets. This, of course, was all very
hne sham battle on a grand scale,
but the "theoretical' idea went so far
that the quarters for the militia be-
came wholly theoretical, and the sup
plies nearly so.
Second-There can be little doubt
That the "Blues" were the goats j;
that they took the field to be defeated,

good argument with which to back up
demand for inland Notifications. In

is that 1t is simply SO old that 1t has

that Arthur NJ. Chuquet prints in

1t relatesto Napoleon and Blucher.
The emperor received the general
at the castle of Finkenstein, while he
was preparing for the siege of Danzig.
He drew him to window In an upper
story and paid him compliments on
his military gifts. and Blucher, going
away delighted. described the inter
view to his aide-de-camp. What a
chance you missed!" exclaimed the
latter.
