Cifside Park Notes.

Miss M. C. Winterburn gave small
dinner party at her home in Edge
water Heights Monday night last.
She was assisted by her sister Mrs.
C. H. Beers, of Washington connecti-
sides the immediate family, there
were present the Rev. Marshall F.
Montgomery, rector of Trinity Epis-
copal Church and Mrs. Montgomery;
and Rev. Francis Kerwin, rector of
the Church of the Mediator, Edge
water, Mrs. Kerwin and Doris Kerwin.
The joint council meeting, Cliffside
Park and Edgewater, as planned for
last Tuesday night, did not take place,
on account of the desire Of many
members of the formers council to
be present at the school election. The
Edgewater council, however, met.
Among other matters considered was
that of the proposed new fire house.
The Civic Club, of Edgewater are
jubilant over the success of their
ticket at Tuesday nights school
election. They say that it was a vic
tory of the people against the politi-
clans. Those elected are Messrs
Sturtevant, Williams, and Buckley.
The club deserves the greatest credit
for it's unselfsh efforts to bring about
better civic conditions for the entire
community.
Mr.. Sturtevant, of Edgewater, who
has just been elected to the school
board on the Civic Clubs ticket, is
already member of the State School
Board. Mr.. Sturtevant is and edu-
Gator of prominence, being a professor
in the college of the City of New
York.
The recess meeting of the Cliffside
Park council set for Wednesday night
last did not take place. Borough af-
fairs were, however, informally dis
cussed in the council chamber by
Mayor Neumann, Attorney Agnew,
Engineer McClave, and Clerk Brun-
dage.
Mrs. William Hinners, of Edge
water Heights, entertained the men,
bers of the Clover Pinocle Club at her
home on Thursday afternoon last.
The Suffrage Debate, under the au-
spices of the Congregational Church
Mems Club, has been postponed until
next Thursday, out of respect for the
memory of the pastors wife, Mrs.
Alfred C. Church, who died last week
at her home in Michigan.
Madame Charles Chenes, of Lincoln
avenue, has been doing work of love
for the sufferers in Europe since the
war broke out. Although beyond the
allotted three score years and ten, she
has crocheted many dozens of muf-
flers and wash cloths to be sent to the
front.
The annual installation of officers
of the U. G. T., of Grantwood, will
take place this evening at the Fire
Hall. At this time Mrs. Sam Hold

Clifside Park:
A Happy Family.
A Family of Families-An
Organization of Or
qdnizntiOnS.

The borough with it's four thousand
members is much the same as the
family with four. OF the four, there
must always be one who will take
more the burden of the managing and
directing of the whole. In the bor
ough, this one is the Council: "body"
of PERSONS; whereas in the family it
is a single person.
In the family, there will undoubt-
edly me one person who is more re-
ligiously inclined than the others; in
the borough, this "person" becomes a
religious body, or multiplicity of
persons, or a church, or churches. In
Cliffside Park, this body may be COM
pretended in the following: Trinity
Episcopal Church, St. Jorn's Roman
Catholic Church, the Congregational
Church, Trinity Lutheran Church. In
the family there will probably be some
one person more devoted to education
than the others; in the borough family
this person becomes spread out into
a school system, as the Grantwood
and Cliffside schools, and Cliffside
kindergarten.
And so one might go on. The health
of the borough family is taken care
of by it's health board. Its pleasure
and it's sociability by it's church So
cieties and guilds; it's young mems
societies, such as the well-known
Merrymakers and Frolickers; its
young women's societies, as the Camp
Fire Girls. Many other lodges and
societies exist for this and other pur-
poses. But all taken together, they
spell the borough: in this case, the
borough of Cliffside Park.

Jersey Women's Day
At Hotel McALpine.

The meeting at the hotel McAlpine
on Thursday week of the New Jersey
Federation of woman's Clubs was
very largely attended. The various
woman's Clubs from the Palisades
were presented in force.
Mrs. William T. Ropes. president of
the Federation was at the head of the
receiving line. A feature of the re-
ception was the introducing of men,
bers by the hostess of the hotel.
The reception took place on the
twenty fourth floor of the hotel, and
it is understood that permanent head
quarters of the New Jersey Clubs
have been secured on this floor. No
addresses were made at the meeting.
1t was just Jersey Day for the women
of the state.

Borough Uni6cation
Again Discussed

"Mr. - tells me that if the bill
for the unifcation of the Palisades
boroughs comes up while he is in of
flee at Trenton, he will surely vote for
it. 1t would be grand thing for the
three boroughs of Edgewater, Cliff
side Park, and Fort Lee to be united
into the tri-borough, of which so much
is being said these days"
The speaker quoted has appeared
before, anonymously, in these col
umns. He is man of great force
of mind, and wholly disinterested in
his statements and views.

Childhood Dance
of The Merrymakers.
A Childhood Dance
By the Merrymakers
Next Friday evening
At Carney Hall.

That about tells the tale.
Those who have attended any of
the affairs of this popular organiza-
ton know what to expect The boys
say that they have some fine surprises
in store for the evening, but refuse to
put even the reporter "wise" to the
big doings now going on in the way
of preparations for the event. 1t has
been ascertained, however, that the
dance will not be costume affair
and that the hall will be converted
into a fairy-like playroom at mid
night. There will be delicious re-
freshments, as usual, and an abund-
ance of lively dance music.

UNITED STATES

There are over $4,000 women chauf-
fers in the United States.
Beggars are no longer permitted in
the streets in Philadelphia.
There are only $3.50 more men than
women in New York State.
The tobacco factories of this coun-
try employ 90,619 women and chill
dren.
New York's Highway Department
has just cut off $4,000 in needless
salaries.
In Philadelphia baby is born on
an average of every twelve minutes
during the day and night.
In the event of war the United
States would have to rely chiefly on
its navy and coast defences to repel
an enemy.

Card of Thanks,

To the friends and neighbors who
were so attentive to daddy during
the eleven weeks of his illness, and
who stood by us thru the last trying
hours, to the faithful doctors, White
and Callicott, to Brother Carney for
the many sweet consoling words, to
those who sang so beautifully, to his
old soldier comrades who bore his
body it's last resting place, and for
the pretty floral offering, especially
the Daughters of Confederacy, we ex-
tend our most grateful thanks and
may the richest of Gods blessings
rest upon each of you.
Mrs. J. S. Bean, children and
grandchildren.

know that darling hopes were hid
beneath that little casket lid; and
know her lips, cheek and brow were
almost as white as her baby's are
now; know some things were laid
away, the crimson frocks and wrap
pings SO gay; the little socks and
half shoes, the cap and it's plumes
and ribbons SO blue; and an empty
little bed, with it's cover all spread,
as white as the face of the sinless
dead, ''Tis a little grave" but, oh

in coming years, may see, like her,

with an only boy.

neighbor and will be greatly missed
by a host of relatives and friends.
He was buried at Minnick on We'd

WHAT'S A BOY SCOUT?
A Glimpse of the Life of Boy Who
Belongs"

A Scout! He enjoys hike thru
the woods more than he does walk
over the city's streets. He can tell
north or south or east or west by the
signs" He can tie a knot that will
hold, he can climb a tree which
seems impossible to Others, he can
swim a river, he can pitch tent, he
can mend a tear in his trousers, he
can tell you which fruits and seeds
are poisonous and which are not, be
can sight nut-bearing trees from a
distance; if living near ocean or lake
he can reef a sail or take his trick
at the wheel, and if near any body
of water at all he can pull an oar
or use paddles and SOULS; in the
woods he knows the names of birds
and animals; in the water he tells
you the different varieties of fish.
A Scout walks thru the woods
with silent tread. No dry twigs snap
under his feet and no loose stones
turn over and throw him off his bal
ance. His eyes are keen and he sees
many things that others do not see.
He sees tracks and signs which re-
veal to him the nature and habits
of the creatures that made them. He
knows how to stalk birds and ami
mails and study them in their natural
haunts. He sees much, but is little
seen.
A Scout, like an old frontiersman,
does not shout his wisdom from the
housetops. He possesses the quiet
power that comes from knowledge.
He. speaks softly and answers ques-
tions modestly. He knows a brag.
CART, but he does not challenge him,
allowing the boaster to expose his
ignorance by his own looseawagging
tongue.
A Scout holds his honor to be his
most precious possession, and he
would die rather than have it stain
ed. He knows what is his duty and
all obligations imposed by duty he
fulfills of his own free will. His
sense of honor is his only taskmaster,
and his honor he guards as jealousy
as did the knights of old. In this
manner Scout wins the confidence
and respect of all people.
A Scout can kindle fire in the
forest the wettest day and he seldom
uses more than one match. When
no matches can be had he can still
have a fire, for he knows the secret
of the rubbing sticks used by the
Indians, and he knows how to start
