FEED THE BIRDS.
NeW jersey Audubon Society
Makes Appeal For Winter
HeLp To Birds.

The New Jersey Audubon Society
is again calling the attention of the
public to the fact that winter feeding
of wild birds about the homes saves
many that would otherwise die from
hunger and exposure, and also in
creases their abundance about such
homes, to the great advantage OF
property owners.
During the severe weather of the
latter part of last winter, many birds
were saved as a result of the public
ity given to the subject by the Audu-
bon Society and the pamphlets which
were sent free to all applicants, Civ
ing directions for winter feeding of
the birds. The society is now renew
ing the offer to send such a pamph-
let to every applicant without any
charge whatsoever.
Already there has been severe,
freezing weather, when suet fastened
on the trees furnishes a heat and
vitality food, enabling the birds to bet
ter withstand the winter. Bread
crumbs, mixed bird seed, meat scrap
and grain should also be provided in
sheltered places, where the feeding

She Went to Sleep.

A little girl travelling in a sleeping
car with her parents greatly objected
to being put in an upper berth. She
was assured that papa, mamma, and
God would watch over her. She was
settled in the berth at last and the
passengers were quiet for the night,
when small voice piped:
mammal
Eyes, dear"
"You there?"
Eyes, Pm here. Now go to sleep"
Papa, you there?"
Eyes, Pm here. Go to sleep, like
a good girl"
This continued at intervals for some
lime, until fellow passenger lost
patience and called:
Were all here! Your father and
mother, and brothers and sisters, and
uncles and aunts, and first cousins !
All here. Now go to sleep!"
There was a brief pause after this
explosion. Then the tiny voice piped
up again, but very softly.

SILVER LAKE.
Winter Sports on the BOrOugh's
Greatest Pleasure Ground.


Greatest Pleasure Ground.
Silver Lake is the watch-word these
days of all those who delight in being
in the open, and taking advantage Of
the tonic effect to be had from exer-
else and sports on the ice.
This comfortably sized pond is pic
turesquely situated in the upper part
of Cliffside Park, on the western
slope of Anderson avenue where it is
intersected by Lafayette avenue, and
it is rapidly becoming the pleasure
spot of the community. On Sunday
afternoon there was steady stream
of pleasure seekers going and COM
ing, and on and about the ice "pack
a gay and animated scene presented
itself. In the swaying belt of skaters,
the well-known figures of the Dor.
ough's boys and girls, it's children and
adults, clothed in bright costumes ap-
propriate to the occasion, were to be
seen, as were also those from neigh
boring boroughs, all joined together in
the bond of harmless and healthy
sport. 1t is understood that the pond
is part of the property of the William
Peters Brewing Company. 1t is GER
tainly performing very great SER
vice to the public, and it is to be
hoped will become borough "public
utility" part of its infant park ard
playground system.

CHRISTIAN GIVING.
w. r. Goodman Talks on This Inter

CAo;nty


Society.
The Young Peoples Society of the
Palisade Union Church had Mr.. w. r.
Goodman as leader last Sunday night.
He chose "Christian Giving" as a
subject, and brought out many inter-
esting points, viewing the matter
from many and varying angles. He
had various members read appropri-
ate quotations from the Bible on the
subject of giving, and there were
little talks on the subject by Mr..
McCord, Mrs. Sibley, George H. Frew,
jr., and Mr. Logan. Mr.. Goodman is
at the present time engaged on an
important work for the Palisade
church, that of getting the basement
work finished that will lead finally to
the main auditorium. 1t is hoped to
have the basement ready by next win
ter when it will be used as sort of
social center for the village. 1t will
be large enough for all kinds of gym
nasium work, with ceiling probably
sixteen or seventeen feet high. This
will give us the largest auditorium in
town, and the completion of this i'm
portant addition is being looked for
ward to with the greatest interest by
young and old alike.

THREE NEEDY FAMILIES.
Fort Lee Poor That Must Have Assist

Attend School,

From L. C. Anderson, Palisade

that there are three families in Fort

ance. There are twelve children in all
without shoes. One of the families
is named Warren. They live in South
street, and have four children in need
of shoes. An Italian family named
Talifaro, Central road, have four
children without shoes. The Engles
live in Jane street, near John, and
have two children without shoes or
proper clothing to appear in. They
have been helped before. Mr.. Ander-
son says that anything that may be
sent to these poor families may be
sent to him, and he will see that it is
promptly delivered.

The George F. Stable store at the

it is with everything useful from a

wearing apparel, besides almost every
conceivable article of use around the

600, or about $175 per pull. The
authority quoted in the article has
drawn the attention of the Palisadian
to the fact that the total sum should
have been dated at $4,000, which
would bring the cost per pupil down
to about $40.
