Some Real Thinking
Over Clifside Park
"Citizen' Urges Caution
In Dealing With EUery
Financial Problem
Editor of "The Palisadian,"

Editor of "The Palisadian,"
Dear Sir:
One hundred thousand dollars!
and something under 1000 persons
to pay it! that, in a nutshell, is the
tax story of Cliffside Park for the
coming year. Many of US are getting
ready for it now; but, we hope, not
complainingly.
One hundred thousand dollars!
What do we pay it for? what SPECIFIC
objects and work is it applied to!
Is it applied to the most helpful and
necessary ends? Could it be applied
to a better and greater advantage to
the greatest number among our popu-
lation?
One hundred thousand dollars!
Might not this great, common pool
ing of our earnings and savings, and
even self-denyings, be made means
to a finer and richer community life?
Might not this joint fund be made to
serve as the handspring of an
awakened civic consciousness: the
lode-stone for the calling together Of
it's separate contributors once or twice
a month in common counsel for its
wisest distribution?
hn &c
tributors of this large family fund.-
should they be chosen with a single
eye to their inherent fitness and
ability among the hundreds of our
citizenry eligible for the trust, and
in accordance with the best tradi-
lions of our American suffrage? Or
should they be chosen for a less
worthy motive: with an eye to po-
litical or commercial advantage?
And along with the allotting of
our borough dues, or taxes, for the
best maintenance and development of
our borough plant, should go the di-
recting of what is of greater and
transcending Importance, the civic
life and efficiency of our borough.
This latter expresses itself at pres
ent principally at occasional elections,
school and otherwise; voting for men
and money, and expensive improve
ments. But what it does not seem
to express itself in is sense of civic
devotion and enthusiasm; in an inter-
est in it's officials and their official
life: common enjoyment of, and
enlightened concern in, the very i'm
provements for which it has pledged
the support of the present and the
next generation.
AS examples of this last statement,
there may be submitted, by way of
illustration, the slight attendance of
the public at the meetings of their
council, and boards of education and
health; the lack of general interest in
the newspaper account of these pro-
ceedings; and the practical disappear
ance of visiting" at the schools and
classes of the borough's children, and
their teachers.
On November 2, and preceding that
at the primaries, will be chosen the
men from our midst, who will be, Sc
to speak, the standard bearers of our
civic life the custodians of our COM
mon fund, and the managers of our
joint properties. The opportunity will
then be in our hands of putting into
the positions of the very greatest
honor in our community the men most
nearly fitted by character and ex-
perience to occupy them.
Let us begin now to ask ourselves,
"Who shall our leaders be-"
Respectfully,
Citizen.

Progress Made On
High School Site

On Tuesday last practically the
whole of the front section of the
high school excavation had been
completed. The huge boulders of
rock had been blasted and broken up,
with the exception of large chunk
at the extreme northwest corner. The
pile of broken rocks resulting were
heaped in the center of the opening
waiting to be put back again in place
in the stone foundation. The extension
at the rear had been sunk to depth
of five feet.

HIGH SCHOOL
CONCERT

The combined Boys and Girls
Glee Clubs of the High School gave
their annual concert at the Method
ist church last Friday evening be-
fore large audience, and 1T was a
success from every standpoint The
program. occupied about an hour
and a quarter for it's rendft'cn, and
consisted of the usual high standard
classical music which Mr.. Nelson
has always taught in the school.
Miss Bertrace Tinpe, Miss Har-
lene Satoris, and Miss Naomi Par
sons rendered solos very delightful
ly and In manner that showed
careful preparation. The Misses
Timpe and Parsons also sang duet.
The boys were ably represented by
Mr. Earl Keller, in his solo THE
Gypsy King, and by the mae
quartet in a humorous selection
which received hearty encore.
In addition to the singing numbers,
there was an unusually fine plano
solo by Miss Mile Lattig. She
played difficult number brilliantly,
and was forced to repeat before the
audience was satisfied
The other numbers were either
by the separate Glee Clubs or en-
semble, and were given in the usual
effective manner of the high school
concerts. The Payette boys and girls
put up music of very high class
order, and credit is due for this
not only to good material. but to
the untiring and efficient work of
Mr.. Nelson in directing and bring
ing IT out. When local talent can
render such concert as was done
last Friday evening, the community
has right to be proud.

THE BEST WAY
TO ADVERTISE
chautauqua System Finds Nothing to
Compare With Newspapers In Sc
curing Efficiency in Publicity.

Few people realize what proper
tSons the chautauqua, as an institu'
ton, has attained. Although the idea
has reached its largest development
In the east, because such gatherings
have been running there for long
time, the west is fast catching up.
The Ellison White System reports a
more rapid development Of the chau-
tauqua spirit through the northwest
and on the Pacific coast then they
believed could be possible
This bureau supplies practically all
the attractions for this whole terri
tory and has 110 chautauquas on
their list this season whore last
year they handled but sixty-nine On
the coast including the independents.
This shows great gain in the num-
Der of communities taking Up this
welfare movement.
To inform, interest and attract the
largest number of people to these
Eeek-long gatherings in 110 different
means a startling out
put for advertising In one way and
another. The advertising expense is
ar ahead Of any other source Of
outlay except the talent. The money
his bureau will spend for talent will
almost reach the 100000 mark the
present season.
