Palisade School
Opens With Large
Autumn Attendance

The Palisade public school opened
for the fall term on Monday last with
a full attendance for the first day,
there being eighty pupils present, in
GLIDING seventeen "babies," the latter
first-termers. These totals will be
increased as the term progresses,
there being half a dozen more to come
in on Tuesday. Miss Maud Brady, the
accomplished principal, is delighted
at the prospect, and thinks the pres
ent session will be the largest of
record here.
The other teachers of the Palisade
school are Miss Green, in charge of
the fifth and sixth grades, Miss
Gimbel, who has the third and fourth
grades, and Miss O'Reilly, who man.
ages the first and second grades.
The general condition of the school
itself is A No. l, it being kept clean
and neat as pin at all times. If the
borough ever gets in the mood to add
a fine gymnasium on the west side of
the present building it will be great
addition to Palisade, the present au-
ditorium being too small for any
thing like a gym.

Palisade Church
Greatly Improved
By Interior Fixings

The long deferred improvements in
the Palisade Union Church have been
put in during the past summer, and
now there are so many changes one
would be compelled to note them at
once on entering.
The new electric fixtures have been
put in, and the lighting will now be
as brilliant as day; handsome six
light drop light electroliers are sus-
pended from the rafter beams above,
the effect being very artistic and the
light at night being all that could be
desired
The stairway leading to the base
ment, has been finished. 1t is made of
fine walnut, and is very effective.
Also, the upper stairway to the tower
leading from the main auditorium,
has also been finished, and the entire
interior is now better than ever, the
general scheme being greatly improv-
ed. 1t will be some years, no doubt,
before steps are taken to finish the
main auditorium. The work of i'm
provements was all done under the
auspices of the Woman's Guild, and
the public owes them vote of thanks
for their fine work in raising the
funds for these fine improvements.

And he had such fine dignity, and real
dignity is always accompanied by
gentleness of manner, and he had
both in supereminent degree. He was
a lovely boy, and, while can't give
what the women folk would think and
feel about him, he was certainly a
mans man, and there are not many
full grown men at twenty, some never
attain it. He had reached full growth.
There was Lincolnian self-reliance
about him. And what fine laugh he
had. There was a fine ring to it, for
it had depth. 1t had no semblance to
the conventional smirk. He must have
been man of deep griefs, for where
there are high peaks there are deep
valleys. He had all the elements of a
good fighter, for he was fair player,
and good loser, an all-round sport
and gentleman, in the fine accepta-
ton of the word. l don't pretend to
circumscribe the purposes of an In
finite Power but it certainly seems a
contradiction in terms to make fine
piece of work merely to destroy it
before it could do the work for which
it was made.

.Congregationaists
Meet And Dine

The annual dinner and election of
the Congregational Church, Grant
wood, on Tuesday evening was a
most charming and successful affair.
There was a large attendance pres
ent. The tables were beautifully
decorated with red autumn leaves,
and the dinner greatly enjoyed; it
was prepared by the Ladies Aid with
Mrs. Vaughn as chairman.
AS result of the business session,
j. R. Fridlington and P. w. Schomber
were elected deacons for three years.

were: Superintendent of the Sunday
School, P. w. Schomber; President of
the Christian Endeavor Society,
Arthur w. Bennett; President of the
Ladies Aid, Mrs. Berls.
The budget presented by the Board
of Trustees for 1917-17 amounted to
$500. This included an increase of
5000 in the pastors salary. Inter-
esting reports were made by Pastor
Church and Assistant Pastor Gozzo.
Notice was also given of the publ
cation of an article by the latter on
the Italian work on the Palisades in
the North American Missionary Maya
zine for October. Mrs. George B.
Donaldson reported successful year
in the church's missionary work. A
report was also rendered by w. S.

the effect that the services of William

From Anthony Gross, Author Of
of Harper's Book on Lincoln.

Another contribution from a friend
who knew my son was received last
week-Anthony Gross the widely
known author of the Lincoln book
published by Harper & Brothers about
four years ago. Mr.. Gross is a man
of letters who has very high stand
ing, and his ideals of intellectual
standards are very high. He has told
me many times of his great admira-
ton for the boy now gone from US,
and his tribute represents only small
idea of what he really felt.
l never knew the young man init
mately nor did ever have very
many opportunities for close analysis,
So my estimates of him are super
fetal. But when l say superficial l
don't mean it in the ordinary accepta-
ton of the term. / mean never had
any intimate soul-expressions from
him. l remember well the first time
met him. / had heard his dear old
dad talk about Charles Junior many
many times, and always in the most
affectionate way. 1t was to me who
was the colleague of the Senior Logan
in the same Office most delightful
expression of the paternal, delight
full. His hopes, his aspirations for the
boy, his anxiety and eagerness to pro-
vide him with all the ammunition to
fight the battle of life have never
seen exceeded. The Senior Logan was
the best dad l had ever met and per-
haps as good dad as ever lived. But
l am wandering. One day big, tall
handsome, well-made fellow came to
the Office rail and asked me for Mr..
Logan, Mr.. Logan was out, but
would soon return. Would the young
man come in and sit down. 1t was in
this informal way got to know him.
He unfolded and we talked and talked.
We both did our share. And what a
rare character he displayed. Big,
broad shouldered husky fellow he
was, as gentle as he was big. Lovely
boy, full of fine animal instincts and
yet strong, very strong personality,
and so magnetic. He just oozed
magnetism; l felt it all over, it was
so pervasive. met him at his
fathers home later and there the first
impressions were accentuated and
strengthened. The poise of the young
fellow astounded me, for many men
much older than he and with broader
opportunities for the cultivation of
the mental muscles didn't have it.

Borough Work Being
Stopped On Sundays

Considerable talk is going around
about Sunday work at present being
done for the borough on the street
improvements. OF course, every one
knows that it is all done to hurry the
great undertaking along before the
cold weather gets here when it will
not be possible to proceed again till
spring.
The matter came up in the council
last Monday night, and communica-
ton was read from citizen relating
to the violation of the Sunday law.
However, the work went on in GER
tain places, and now an open protest
is in order. Mayor Cadien at the Mon
day night meeting of the council said
he knew it was breaking the law and
it was ordered that Sunday work be
discontinued. 1t is said that work
was done in the face Of the mayors
order. There is much feeling in GER
tan quarters over the matter.

Charles T. Logan, Jr.
And His Short Career
By His Father

come now to a phase of my sons
character developed as he went out
into the world for the first time;
when he changed the steering of his
lifeboat on the sea of human en-
deavor so that it was more out in the
open. The day he entered Columbia
University he began to go right
There he was among $4,000 of his fell
low students, modest to timidity, yet
aggressive to the last degree in his
studies and sports. l have already
alluded to the complete change of his
life from the moment he began his
college career. To us it seemed a
man was in the mould for the re-
making. Whatever he was was cast
at Columbia. There he became him
self-his highest, best self. There is
no time in boys life when he is
beset with so many temptations as
at college. From the beginning this
boy was out to be himself, to live as
he was intended to live. He had his
own view of things, and at this point
l want to add chapter by one of his
college mates, who knew him and his
purposes better, perhaps, than any
other man at Columbia:

From a Columbia University Class
mate and Fraternity Brother, Lester
C. DanielsOn (Beta Theta PIP.
Charlie Logan-A Big Man

Big is the word that best fits him
big in statute, yes, to be sure-but
more significant, big in spirit. He
was way above that class of men we
call "snide," the men who do petty
things, whose noses are on the ground
and who never look up to catch q
vision of greater, higher things. The
writer, who is proud to have been
one of his closest college friends,
never knew him to do anything
"smalP' or mean.
And what more of good can be
said of man than this-that he held
no room in his heart for the mean,
the untrue, the selfish?
Collect, if you will, all the adjectives
that you would wish applied to your
self and place them after his name.
Honest, generous, true, sincere, kind
these and lots more. He merits
them all.
He was a leader because of his ma
tural ability to lead-becausc he was
born leader and not because it was
thrust upon him. In our first two
years at college when class fights
took more of our time and interest
than our classroom sessions1 he was
the strong oak to which we dependent
ivy chaps chung and not particularly
because he was tall, but because his
spirit was never daunted.
To the men who knew him mere
wo51s in praise Of him mean little OF
nothing. The real Charlie Logan
that they knew and loved has per
manent place in their hearts. Moth
ing said now can add much Certainly
nothing will detract) to the part he
has played and the part his memory
will play in the lives of those whose
friend he was. His friends consti-
tute for him monument more en-
during than BRASS" In time it will be-
come tradition, his name spoken
reverently, mentioned when good fell
lows get together to talk over those
halycon days at college. And his
name will always be associated with
what stands for the best in men, the
noblest, the truest.

Napoleon's Custodian at St. Helena.

Sir Hudson Lowe, the man appointed
by England to be the custodian of the
emperor, arrived at ST. Helena on
April IA, 1916. His appearance was
not prepossessing. He was extraordi
narily thin, with stiff carriage. He
had long, bony face, blotched with
red and scanty hair of dirty yellow
color. His hollow eyes cleaned IN
der thick, reddish eyebrows, but were
furtive and restless, never looking
straight at any one save by stealth.
THAT is bad man." declared Ma.
poleon when he had seen him. His
eye as he examined me was like a
hyena's caught in a trap"
He really resembled this horrid, sly
animal In its walk as well as in hair
and eyes. He never sat down when he
was talking, but swung about hesitat
ingly and with abrupt jerks.-"Witt

CATCH THEM AND KILL THEM.
Don't Keep Fish Alive After You Get
Them Out of the Water.

Probably nine-tenths of the fisher.
men hereabouts make the mistake Of
trying to keep their fish alive after they
are caught on the theory that the flesh
will taste better after they get home
and prepare them for the pan for cook.
Ing. They string them and keep them
In the water or let them die in the
creel
The custom is a mistake, according
to the experts. They declare the best
way is to kill the fish the moment it is
landed by pushing its head back and
thus breaking the neck or giving it a
hard blow on the head. Then take a
knife and "bleed" them by running the
knife blade around the bottom Of the
gills. ae

Of white cEetscloth, and as soon as the
fish is caught kill it and bleed 1t. Then
dampen the cloth and wrap up each
fish separately. taking care that no two
fish touch each other.
''By doing this you will find that the
fish will retain all the color marking
just as clear and bright as when 1t was
first taken from the water and the fish
will be sweet and palatable. "-Phila'

BOOTH AS HAMLET.
His Stage Business Was Used by Both
Fechter and Mounet- Sully.

His Stage Business Was Used by Both
Feehter and Mounet Sully.
Like all men before the public. Ed.
win Booth was frequently the victim
of malicious detraction. He was nc
cused of initiating other actors. at first
his father. then the tragedian Fechter
and others.
Fechter was at that time very popu-
lar in England and in this country. He
once called on the younger actor and
said with brutal frankness. II hear
them say you initiate my business. and
l am going to watch you like hawk"
1t must have been rather trying to
play to this rival glaring conspicuously
from a stage box, but at the conclu.
sion of the performance Fechter came
back to say that the charge was quite
unfounded
Shortly after this experience Booth
took a night off and went to see Fech
ter, and he was astonished to see the
German actor following the ghost In
Hamlet" with the handle of his sword
uplifted as cross. Booth remarked
dryly that Fechter had evidently ap
proved that part OF his business and
had adopted it, Shortly after this the
critic of a New York paper made the
| interesting discovery that Booth had
puroined this bit of business from the
foreign actor
Booth smiled at the extravagant
praise bestowed upon Mounet- Sully for
his wonderful business in Hamlet" In
swearing by the shadow of the cross
made on the stage by his sword
Booths comment was that he had done
that years before Mounet-Suliy ever
played the part of Hamlet. Both pieces
of business were the results of acct
] dents. On one occasion his sword stuck
into the stage so that he could not pull
1t out, and he noticed the shadow cast
by it and realized its significance as he
pointed to it. On another night, as hi
was struggling with Marcellus and Ho
ratio-"Unhand me, gentlemen. or, by
heaven, IN make a ghost of him thai
let's me'-he lost his hold ON the sword
it few up into the air, and as he caught
1t he noticed that the hilt made the
sign of the cross; he caught the elo
quence of its meaning, and 1t became 1
