There were a number of neigh

Are you Eighty Years old? Please

And say tits fiction of time.
The gray hair? Yes, l know you

When life was but still in it's prime.
And the wrinkles? They're only a
libel,
When you are your mirror before,
But your youth is as true as the
Bible,
In spite of your fancied four-score
For youths not a thing of mare
faces,
But feeling, and spirit, and heart;
lis the lnnermost beauty that graces
The life, and that will not depart.
we may keep it till shadows are
falling
AT close of life's lingering day.
While the birds of the morn are still
calling
And Age is a thing far away.
You have kept the young heart and
the spirit
VI Youth, well along in the wears
And if Age were to come vou,d M,
fear it,
NOR face it with signing or tears:

the trials
Which came as YOU io,,rnevo,
along,
And in spite of good fortunes
denials
Your way has been frightened with
song.
While of late you have found it b,,,
lonely,
Without your companion Ions

You have held the same patb want

The Preparedness Parade

The great preparedness parade
having been run off as per program,
the time has come when we may
pause to ask what it is all about
Principally the parade was pulled
off to create sentiment for prepared
ness against war. Some think it was
a protest against the government.
We doubt this.
But the mystery is, who is going
to, or who wants to, attack us!
Surely not England. She has her
hands full managing her own affairs.
Trade rivalry will only stimulate
England. It cannot drive her into
another war.
France hasn't the remostest idea
of wanting to fight anybody, least OF
all America. France will mind her
own knitting.
Germany has had enough war for
half a century, and it will take a
full century to get fully over this
war. All Europe has had enough.
It is too poor to wish another war
on itself for any cause.
America is to-day the most I'M
portant country in the world. The
whole world is dependent upon US for
SO much that no country can afford
to stir up war against us.
Granting that England or Ger
many would want to declare war
against US for any reason. The Lord
knows they could not either one
whip us alone, and if they did they
would have to capture half of a con-
tinent to do it.
And they couldn't!
England wasn't prepared for tbs
present war except-alsthe sea- HeE
navy couldn't get very far in the way
of destroying our coast cities, and
then only few of these. She would
never touch New York or Boston or
Philadelphia.
The war theorists have painted the
invasion of America by Japan and
Germany, and shown how they could
land armies without the slightest
trouble
Maybe they could do it. But will
they want to?
Where would Japan find another
market? America is her principle
dependence.
Germany has too many interests
here to ever think of making war
against us.
So the preparedness parade was
species of propaganda. Let it go
at that.
America needs great navy, or
sea coast protection-or both. She
could have both if she were to go
to it.
But there are the politicians!
We have to drift back to politics,
no matter what the demand.
But really, the navy's the thing,
with ample fields of mines ready for
planting when the danger threatens.
America is not like England and
the English channel where great
fleet may be hidden for months and
nobody know of it's location.

To the Editor of the "Palisadian."
Dear Sir:
Palisade is the logical head of all
movements for the betterment of the
community and therefore must lead
all other cities by example as well as
precept.
The overgrown suburb of Palisade
across the Hudson has just had a
Preparedness Parade" which has at
tracted much attention throughout
the country, and of which somewise.
or otherwise, have criticized on the
grounds that we may have been pre-
pairing against an imaginary enemy.
Now Palisade is city noted for
It's commonsense above all other
qualities. Therefore let us now have
a really truly Preparedness Parade"
which no one can question.
Just see what New York City did!
They had parade of citizens asking
for defense against an imaginary
enemy at some future date and the
authorities let them march for twelve
s fr1nke Battery to Central
4uDAl0lc when the Mothers Parade
for better babies took place they only
let them ride up Broadway six blocks
and then shunted them off to side
avenue! The Mothers. Parade was
aimed at real enemy far more cruel
and Unsuitable than foreign soldiers,
bad as they have proved themselves
to be Except, of course the Turks
Now, let Palisade have it's parade

that will strike without mercy and
take no prisoners. The mosquito

the crowd with him and gained high
ly respectful hearing even from
sworn opponents of Mr.. Knott.
1t is the claim of the jackson Coun-
ty Democratic Club that the meeting
was decidedly for the democratic
nominee; if this is true, it being a
fairly representative meeting both as
to classes and localities, it means that
Jackson county is largely for Mr..
Knott.
When the debate was over and adj
journment was had for dinner and if
expressions heard on the streets are
to be taken as guide, there is little
doubt that Mr.. McNamee had some
what the advantage of the senator,
both in points scored and IN the feel
ing of the crowd. Mr.. McNamee left
no lingering doubt Of the fact that
Mr.. Knott is the nominee of the party
and that he will have the support of
all democrats who expect to remain
democrats.
In the afternoon good crowd went
back to the court house to listen to
Judge F. B. Carter, of Pensacola, who
in an able manner, told his friends
that Mr.. Knott is the nominee of the
democratic party for governor, and
appealed to them to rally to the sup
port of the man who has been malign-
ed and misrepresented, but who is
nevertheless, the fully declared choice
of the people in the primary of June
sixth.
His words had weight that moth
ing has had heretofore in this county.
