The Brady Farm
A Beauty Spot
At This Time

A visit to the Paul T. Brady farm
will reveal to you one of the busiest
places to be found in this section.
Just at present the special fields of
labor are the strawberry and rasp-
berry patches, the former being ready
to harvest and the army of small
boys are hustling to gather them.
About the time these are harvested
the three or four acre patch of rasp-
berries will be ready for the harvest.
Among the many noticeable i'm
provements is an irrigation plant
which is being installed under the
supervision of Mr.. Spiegel, the water
supply being obtained from the brook
with the aid of gasolene engine and
force pump. Portions of the plant
are completed and it certainly works
to perfection as to irrigation and
also for bringing fresh water to
every part of the place where it is
needed for stock or poultry
The poultry plant is assuming vast
proportions and the thousands of
pure white hens and chickens are Ger
tainly sight worth viewing. This
department is in charge of Mr.. Bran
nlng, an expert poultryman, and is
proving successful venture finan-
cially.
After viewing the acres of garden
truck berries, corn, potatoes, ETC., all
of which show the result of the ex-
pert care given it by Mr.. Spiegel, you
next pay visit to the large dairy
barn where will be found as fine a
herd of thoroughbred Holsteins as can
be seen in New York State. This
herd is headed by King Pontiac Lyons
DeKol, and among the cows is re-
cent addition of AAggie Walker
Pietreje, No. 121385 with milk
record of 568.1 lbs and 29.0O2 lbs of
butter in days and 80 day record
of 2416.3 lbs. of milk and 1925 lbs.
of butter. This COW was born Oct. 8,
1908 and certainly is one of the hand
soonest to look at, and her record as
shown above places her in the front
ranks Of producers. This fine herd
is in charge of Henry E. Lee, who, as
the neat and attractive appearance of
the stables and surroundings show is
painstaking caretaker and nerds
man.
There are many other attractive
features to be found about the model
farm, and when Mr.. Brady completes
the improvements and additions which
he has in mind it will be one of the
show places of the state we'll worth

Sunday Schools
Go A-Picknicking

Last Monday, June %, was joy
Gus occasion for four Sunday schools
of Union Hill and West Hobken,
which joined in one grand excursion
up the Hudson on the steamer Rose
dale to Point Pleasant. Starting from
he wharf alongside the Weehawken
ferry about $40 a. M, the merry
crowd of over 800 landed on the beau
tiful picnic grounds at the Point by
noon, and for five hours or more en-
joyed themselves with ball playing,
racing, swimming, eating lunches and
other innocent pleasures, stimulated
by the presence and hearty co-opera-
ton of Pastors Rollins, of the First
Baptist Church, Union Hill, and
Knox, of West Hoboken, First Baptist
Church. Besides these two churches,
the First Methodist Church, Union
Hill, and the New Durham Church.
the Avestor, of the Union Hill Baptist
Church, had goodly number of rep
resentives present. Among other
well-known gentlemen accompanying.
the jovial countenance of Ex-Mayor
Moon was very observable. The
whole well-behaved crowd reached
home about 7:30 p. M, without mis-
hap except that one lady tainted or
the open deck, this, however, being a
special privilege of the sex.

of the railroad called to the stand.
when reminded by Commissioner
Treacy of the remedy suggested by
Mr.. Venables at previous hearing.
that of issuing transfers to passeng-
ers boarding the cars in Cliffside Dor
ough to Edgewater ferry, admitted
that this was practicable. So did
counsel for the defence. But the
reverse was not practicable. Persons
coming from Edgewater to Cliffside
Park, and receiving transfers there
fore, could not be required to leave
the cars within the limits of the
borough.
In the court room where the hear
ing of Wednesday was held were two
of the magnificent mural paintings
of Colonial scenes by Howard Pyle.
The attendance was not very large,
the only representatives of the Pail
sades present being Messrs. Agnew,
S. Wood McClave, and Dana. Edge
water was not represented.
At the conclusion of the hearing
Commissioner Treacy announced that
he would give counsel until Wednes-
day, July IA, to present briefs of their
case to him.

Old Home Week
Postponed For Year
Because OF Times

The Fort Lee "Old Home Week"
that was to have taken place the last
week in August, has been postponed
by the Executive Committee until
1916. The committee took this action
because it was believed that the time
was too short to make the affair the
success its Importance really deserved.
The Executive Committee still re-
mainsin active organization, and will
give picnic the last week in August
for the benefit of "Old Home Week, "
Messrs. Haferman, Logan, Tout, and
John Whitaker have been appointed
an entertainment committee to make
the picnic success. 1t is desired
to run it off during the Fireman's
festival.
The Executive Committee hopes to
have fund of at least $1,000 by next
year, with which to start the "Old
Home Week" fund. Then if there is
a chance to increase the receipts by
entertainments of any kind, and there
is balance left over, it will be APP.

poets of the case touche upon at the
hearing.
1t was developed that the distance
from Palisade junction to West Shore
ferry was 5.07S miles; that the run
ming time from the junction to Edge
water ferry was six minutes; that the
number of north bound passengers
from Hudson Heights to Palisade
Junction, that is passengers board
ing the cars within the borough
limits, was 2SS on March 20 last, be-
tween the hours of six a. m. and mid
night. From points in the borough
to other points in the borough, south
bound, the number passengers was
1927. The road was steam road
until 1895 when it was changed to
electricity.
The first beginnings of the road
was in 1866, when charter was
granted to the Englewood Horse Rail
way Company for line down the
Palisades. In 1872 the name was
changed to the Palisade Railway Com
pany.
Attorney ASneW loT CHe Meii .
Club, of Trinity Church, and the Dor
rough brought out in cross-eXamina
lions the fact that cars could be run
from Palisade Junction to Edge
water ferry in the same time that it
took to switch cars at the junction.
Mr.. Agnew also established the
fact that the railroad company was
in the habit of running excursion cars
from the Palisade line over the
switch to the Hudson River line and
to Edgewater ferry and back.
Attorney Gilmore for the railway
Company attempted to show the COM
parative rates of travel, walking and
riding from points in the borough to
Edgewater ferry, but this was object
ed to by Mr.. Agnew, and his objec-
ton was sustained The time made
going by trolley, however, was es-

Among the programs many good
numbers may be mentioned more
particularly George Drew's recitation
which created much merriment;
Theresa Disciascio's essay on the
Star Spangled Banner, ending with a
rousing singing of the song itself by
the class, assisted by Vera Kruger
at the piano, and Barbara Damis'
class prophecy. Helen Haage delight
ed the large audience by her ex-
ceptionally brilliant playing of
Leschetisky's 1.-TWO Larks." James
McGrath's "In the Pantry" gave the
crowd great fun. Helen Moody's
valedictory was a model of young
womanly graciousness and admoni-
ton to her parting school mates, and
of gratefulness to her teachers and
the school board.
Mr.. Herschler, vice president of the
board, made an impressive address
to the class. He seemed to strike
a strong responsive chord in his hear
ers. President Whelan, in present
ing the graduates with their diplomas,
extended his hearty congratulations
and those of the board to them all.
He hoped that they would follow their
motto of "Rowing not Drifting" and
row back all of them to the high
school in the fall.
Supervisor Bray, in short and
pithy address, said that he looked for
ward for the time to come when GER
tain teachers would be chosen for
particular subjects; that one teacher
would have one subject, and no other.
He thought every opportunity should
be given, too, in individual pupils to
advance by studies, rather than by
grades, and with as much speed as
possible, without being held back by
the slower ones in the class.
The closing song "Hail and Fare
WE'LL" was sung with much spirit by
the class with Vera Kruger at the
piano.
A lovely feature of Monday even
ing's happy event was the showering
of beautiful bouquets on the members
of the class.

Orchard
School Exhibit
Held At Leonia

The Old Orchard School, in Leonia,
held its annual exhibit of children's
work last week Friday.
To the usual display in school ex-
hibits of good handwriting, compo-
sitions. arithmetic books and nature
study notes, there were added many
pieces of the children's handwork and
their gardens.
Every child had at least one boat.
There were sail boats with sails that
lowered and raised, and rudders that
steere, as we'll a srow boats, racing
SOULS, house boat, tug boat and
a working boat equipped with
derrick
Having made their own boats, the
children used them as units in
landscape composition. Many of
these were remarkably we'll spaced
and strong in color. A visiting artist
said they compared favorably with
the torn paper pictures exhibited by
Mr.. Cornwell in New York last winter.
The boats were used still further in
applied designs on linen crash and
wood. Of these David Dana's desk
book rack, with the ends picturing his
carved boat in brilliant impression
istic coloring attracted much atten-
ton.
Aynard Williams, of Leonia, age
six, displayed rustic seat that will
hold three children, also an arm chair
appropriately painted and upholstered
to adorn his play room at home.
Richard Hasbrock's music box and
all his drawings and art craft show a
feeling for beauty and pictorial COM
position remarkable in a young boy.
Baskets, boxes, cars for toy electric
railway, sets of colored blocks and
many toys that parents often buy for
children were shown as the work of
these young craftsmen.
David Dana's composition on the
Hudson River showed how we'll this
lad from Cliffside had observed his
daily environment.
The exhibit is still open, and Mrs.
Moves will be pleased to show it to
any who are interested in seeing what
little children love to do and can do
when given a chance.
