Palisade First Of
Infant Paralysis
Takes Walter Sharp

Walter Henry Sharp, aged five
years and seven months, died at the
home of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
John A. Sharp, IA Edgewood lane,
Palisade, on Friday, August 10, of in
fantile paralysis.
About this tragic piece of informa-
ton is woven story of strong local
interest that reaches back through
nearly decade when Martha Meyer
and John Sharp, then betrothed, came
to Palisade and chose the sight for
the home which they built and moved
into as bride and groom; real asset
to the community.
To this house of happiness came
little Walter on the last day of the
year, 1910, very welcome visitor
whose stay has just elapsed. He was
a little citizen of Palisade; he be-
longed to our community, was a real
part of it, and his friends were its en-
tire population-young and old.
When Walter was four years old
another boy, Stanley, now year and
4 half old, was born to these pa=4sssstss
and he, sturdy and well, is their
greatest comfort in their sorrow.
On last week Wednesday afternoon
Walter complained of headache, and
his mother took the usual precautions
against an attack of stomach disturb
ance. He got up out of his bed to
see the glow from the bon fire used
in the fire drill Wednesday night.
Thursday Mrs. Sharp called DIR.
Brewster, who was out of town, SO
DR.. L. Updyke came and found no
symptoms other than those that &C
company a stomach disorder.
On Friday morning, the tempera-
ture being obstinate, the doctor was
called again and it was soon after
she had left that walter took turn
for the worse and Mrs. Sharp who
had remained home from business,
called DR.. Schmidt and DR.. Bell, the
specialist in childrens' diseases at
Englewood Hospital.
They found that paralysis had at
tackled the diaphram and other vital
muscles of the chest and pronounced
the case hopeless.
So quickly had the disease advanced
that they had no time to try any of
the treatments now being experiment
ted with and he passed away at 230
Friday afternoon.
The funeral was of course private.
DR.. Beattie, former pastor of the
Union Church, where Walter went to
Sunday School, came over from New
York to officiate and the little body
was inferred at Rosedale Cemetery,
in Orange, on Saturday last. Stanley
and the Lynch boys, who live in the
upper apartment, are in the best of
health, and although no official quarn-
tine covers children in adjoining
apartments the Lynch boys are being
held in voluntary quarantine by their
parents.

Epidemic Causes
Postponement of
The Hohokus Fair

Owing to the prevalent epidemic of
infantile paralysis, the Executive
Committee of the Bergen County
Fair Association has postponed the
date of the annual fair which was
to have been opened at the Hohokus
race track on August 20, to Tuesday,
October 10. This action was found
necessary due to the fact that the
Hohokus Board of Health issued an
order forbidding the opening of the
fair grounds.
The postponement of the fair will
involve loss of some fifteen hun
dred or two thousand dollars to the
association, but this, it is anticipated,
will be made up by much larger at
tendance on the.new date. The post
ponement will likewise give the as
ISOLATION little longer time to ar
range the details of the fair which
promises to be bigger and better
one than anything of the kind ever
undertaken in this country.
The most serious feature of the
postponement is that of the Metro
politan Circuit trotting and pacing
races, which will necessitate change

Major Frey, Famous
Palisade Dog Dead

"Major" Frey, the well-known st.
Bernard dog of the S. S. Freys, of
Cumbermede road, Palisade, wander
ed away from home last Tuesday
morning, and the family could get no
news from him until about eleven
o'clock, when the maid at the Frews
came running over to Mrs. Logan and
told her there was a big dog on their
front porch acting queerly. The
Frews were away in the White noun
tains, and the girl did not know what
to do, being strange in Palisade. In
quiry developed the fact that the dog
was Major" and he had dropped
over dead on the front porch after
wandering around town all morning.
No doubt his instinct induced the poor
old fellow to go into some shelter as
the fatal sickness overcame him.
"Major" was highly esteemed by his
owners, and Mrs. Frey was greatly
affected by her old canine friend and
family companion going off in the
way he did. AS Mrs. Frey said,
"There is no doubt but that dogs have
feeling that we know little of. l
have seen Major show some very
human traits, and especially when he
was ailing. We treated him we'll all
the time, and shall miss his friendly
companionship more than l can tell
YOU" The old dog was given a de-
cent burial.

No "Speak Easies'
In Fairuiew

A statement in last weeks issue of
this paper, regarding the twenty
three "speak-easies" which are sup
posed to exist in Fairview, is being
questioned by the officials of the
town and no little indignation is felt
by the police authorities who have
been Kidding the borough of these
dives for the past couple of years.
Every time one of the places bobs up
the police nab it.
ats a pity that some of these peo-
pie who are running around with wild
statements would not look into the
affairs little more thoroughly be-
fore running with their little story
to the printer" said one of the police
officials after reading the article.
"If the person who is responsible for
that statement will come down here
to police headquarters we will show
him where he is wrong, by opening
the police blotter and letting him see
Just what has been going on. Then
he will see if he is as quick to
acknowledge his mistake through the
press as he was to rush into print
with this statement"
The article which aroused the ire of
the officials, had evidently come the
Taxpayers' Association or some MEM
Der, who is 1eaping without looking"
so to speak.
Another unfair statement in the
article was that Mayor Lyons could
not tell one of the councilman just
why the work on the disposal plant
was being held up. Such statements
are silly in view of the fact that
every member on the council board
should know as well as Mayor Lyons
why certain jobs are being held up.
But in this particular instance the
work was not being, held up, and the
engineer said the plant would prob
ably be finished in about three weeks.
'dThere are rumors afioat," said
high official Of the town, chat the
member of the Taxpayers Associa--
ton defeated the Bullsferry road
proposition. 'Defeated' mind you!
And they are yelling this after the
council was asked to go ahead with
the Improvement which it did. The
proposition was carried along until
the taxpayers in general asked that
the work be stopped and we stopped.
Perhaps if some of those who are
irving to stick feather in their hats
over this affair would read the letter
from Colonel Stevens, in which he
said he considered the move OF the
taxpayers an unwise one, they would
be little more careful about falling
in such holes"
And as for an airing of the Dor.
oug's affairs the officials say they
would welcome this.

Man In Woods Annoys
Women And Girls

Along the border line of West
Grantwood and Ridgefield, especially
on paths through the thick woods,
numerous instances of indecent ex-
posture have been reported during the
last weeks. Complaints have been
made to the authorities by women
and girls, and, judging from their
descriptions, the offenses are due to
one and the same man. His identity
is pretty well established and John
Doe warrants for his arrest are in
the hands of the police. 1t is safe to
say that the most severe punishment
awaits the culprit the moment the
reprehensible practices are unmis-
takably proved on him. Either the
lewd acts mentioned will be at once
discontinued, or the practicer con-

Charles J. Leeger
On Local Option

"Local option, or the right of the
residents of any community to have
or to refuse to have saloons within
it's boundaries, will be one of the
leading issues of the political cam
paign," said Charlie Leeger this
week, who has been consistent
worker in Cliffside Park for the
proper regulation of the borough's
thriving liquor traffic, especially in
regard to Sunday closing. "Why
should we have to be told by someone
outside of the town whether or not
we shall put up with the evil effects
of the liquor habit which is so notice
able on some of our once respectable
and respected citizens? The servers
of intoxicants cannot be expected to
hurt their business by refusing to
sell to heavy drinkers. Under the
Local Option plan the majority vote
in communities will decide on the
question of liquor traffic. In other
lines of business, the law is observed,
why should the saloon be excepted 2"
Mr.. Leeger reported that only last
Sunday the mayor of Carlstadt or
dered every saloon in the town
closed. why should go TO jail Tor
not enforcing the law" said the
Mayor" that is what l could expect
from the prosecutor if / didn't do it. :"
Mr.. Leeger didn't know but what the
same might be said of certain bor-
ough nearer home.
Mr.. Leeger spoke strongly for the
elimination of all acts and utterances
at meetings in the council chamber
which could suggest the influence of
liquor" I have seen acts in our own
council room which if were the pre-
siding officer l would not tolerate.
Other governing bodies have SER
geant at arms and only orderly and
dignified proceedings are allowed.
The better element among us should
insist on the elimination of this ele-
ment from our public meetings." con-
cluded the speaker.
