Walter Goemann
Wants Kelly And
Conroy Continued

On March 81 the voters of Cliff
side Park will elect three members OF
the Board of Education. The men
selected will be entrusted with the
important work of running our school
system. It's Importance is shown by
the fact that the budget for 1915
amounted to $47, $4,000. 1t is essen
tial that the men you put into office
on March Fl shall be the most cap
able Of those who are offering their
services to the borough.
After careful survey of all the
candidates the Citizens Club gave
their endorsement to Messrs. Kelly,
Conroy and Fox. Messrs. Kelly and
Conroy stand on their record; Mr..
Kelly having served on the board for
fifteen years, all these fifteen years
he has been clerk; Mr.. Conroy has
been member of the board for the
past three years. Mr.. Fox is well
known as progressive thinker, q
capable business man, citizen with
q keen interest in good government.
and worker for higher educational
standards. The clerk is the most i'm
portant member of the Board Of
Education. Through his hands must
pass all of the important legal docu-
ments. He must be thoroughly ac-
quainted with the financial procedure
he must have complete knowledge
Of the rulings Of State Board and Of
the courts. A mistake on his part
means q loss of your money. Mr.
Kelly has been an ideal clerk. He il
thoroughly familiar with all Of the
legal requirements. His displacement
by an inexperienced man at this time
would be q tragedy.
A careful examination of Messrs
Kelly's and Conroy's record has
shown it to be flawless. They are
experienced public officials who have
given good service and who are will
ing to devote still more Of their time
thought and energies to the running
Of our school system.
The theory of our government il
perfect. It is only up to par wher
it is in the hands of disinterested anG
intelligent men. You know how hare
it is to secure this kind Of public
official. Public interest demands thai
unselfish work for the public gooC
shall be recognized. Every worker
for the common good shall get hi;
reward Of public approval.
Accept no mans word. The facts
are there for you to pass judgment
upon. Do so. Do not vote for OF
against these men for personal rea-

Card OF Thanks


To the Editor of the "Palisadian"
Permit me to avail myself of the
space Of few lines in your very in
teresting paper to say that words
fail me to properly express my graft
tude for the general demonstration
of coincidence and little, touching,
genteel acts Of sympathy that have
been showered upon me in the loss
of my beloved wife. My only return
is prayer that the blessings of the
Almighty may fall upon them and
when trouble similar to mine comes
knocking at their door that they, too,
shall meet with equally as touching
q sympathy as they have extended to
their bereaved neighbor

Praises Clifside
Police Service
Editor Of the "Palisadian"

Editor of the "Palisadian"
Dear Sr:
read an article in the local papers
in which the police department of
this town had been criticized. | as a
resident have lived in this town for
two and one-half years and have
always found the police to be up to
the standard, for town the size of
ours.
To prove my statements / will cite
two incidents in which the police
have proven that they were on the
job.
First: One night about three
months ago my little girl was play
ing with small pocket flashlight,
after all the lights had been turned
out and everybody had retired for
the evening. This was about ten
p. m. | did not think anything of it
at the time, but fifteen minutes or
so later / heard someone walking
around my house, and then the door
bell rang. /, of course, answered the
summons and a patrolman asked me
if / had a., fashlight. / told him yes,
and he said he had been watching my
House for some tine, as he thought
burglar was in there. He also stated
that he had walked around the house
to see if anyone had tried to break in,
and he rang the bell for the purpose
of finding out who was in the house.
Second: One night ! accidentally
left the porch light burning and re-
tired for the evening. At about one
a. m. my door bell rang and another
patrolman asked me if anything was
wrong, and if I knew that the porch
light was burning. told him no, and
after thanking him turned the light
off.
This goes to prove that the police
force of this town is wideawake, and
the criticism to which they have been
subjected, in my estimation, is un-
called for.

Ernest Sibley Gets
New Spring Valley
Public School Plans

Another fine compliment has been
paid to Ernest Sibley, the well-known
Palisade architect. The new Public
School plans at Spring Valley, N X,
about. twenty niles from PaiiSade,
have been awarded him, and the work
came unsolicited. It seems that Mr..
Sibley's fame had travelled ahead Of
him, and when the Spring Valley
Board of Education heard Of him and
wanted to know, they consulted the
State Educational Department at
Trenton. The answer they got de-
cided the issue and an immediate in
vitation was sent Mr.. Sibley to come
to Spring Valley and learn the boards
desires. There was nothing else to
be desired. The school will be fin
shed this summer.

New Policy. At Carney
Hall Grantwood

Patrick j. Carney has induced
Sidney r. Ellis, well known as a sue
cessful theatrical manager, to inter
est himself in the production Of first
class entertainments in Grantwood,
and in consequence contract has
been entered into with the Paramount
Picture Company, of New York, to
present at Carney Hall, commencing
matinee and night, April l, and con-
tinue every Wednesday and Satur-
day thereafter, selections from their
star feature films after they have
been released at the Strand Theater,
New York. AS Paramount pictures
are only presented in restricted ter
ritory this will mean that the resi-
dents of Grantwood and surrounding
communities will have the pleasur-
able opportunity of witnessing the
very same attractions without the ex-
pense and discomforts of visiting the
metropolis.
In combination with the Para.
mount Picture Films it is proposed
to include in the program a series Of
Burton Homles Traveloques of South
America, which should have great
educational appeal-in fact, they will
no doubt prove a star feature in
themselves, for that portion of the
globe is of particular interest at
present to the American public in
general and the vogue they have at
tanned at the Gambler Theater, New
York, warrants the belief that their
exhibition in our midst will be duly
appreciated.
There will also be presented at
each performance an illustrated news
weekly entitled Paramount Picto-
graphs" which have lately appeared
on the market for public showing
and which promises step forward
in perfecting this style of visualiz-
ing important events in our modern
life.
The expense of these performances
will naturally be in excess of the
shows that have been presented at
Carney Hall, but the promoters feel
certain that the merit Of the program
offered will command the support Of
amusement lovers to enable them to
continue the service permanently.
The first Paramount Feature Pic
ture to be shown, April l, will be
Marguerite Clarke in "The Goose
Girl" in five parts, to be followed by
such famous film stars as Mary Pick
ford, in "Mistriss Nell," Gaby Deslys,
in "Her Triumph" Blanch Sweet, ira
"Warrens of Virginia" VIM. H.
Crane, in "David Harum," Elsie
Janis, in "Caprices Of Kitty" Fritzie
Scheff, Geraldine Farrar and others.

The sslMikodo" Chorus,
An Effective As Well
As Brilliant Work

In the "Palisadian's" report Of the
recent "Mikado" performance by the
Palisade Choral Society all direct
mention of the chorus work was un-
Willingly left out. The amount Of
ground covered in the general critic
ism was responsible, no doubt, for
this obtrusive error, which is sincere
ly regretted.
The chorus was an excellent one,
and the redeeming feature of any
opera when well rendered. In the
'Mikado" the chorus had been per-
fectly drilled and could scarcely have
been better. In the stage tableaux
the picture presented by the chorus,
grouped as it was with the leading
role performers, made an ensemble
that gripped all interest and atten-
tion Immediately. That the chorus
was large part Of the shows sue
cess was evident, as it should have
been. By careful work some very
wonderful effects were obtained by
the director who trained it, and in
the delicate shadings, as we'll as in
the parts requiring louder tone, the
volume was ample, and Of exquisite
quality. Nothing, Of course, could
have added tenth Of the charm to
the opera as good chorus, and in
the Choral Society's work there was
little more to be desired. The ladies
and the young men composing the
chorus deserve every praise for their
long and arduous labors in producing
such a harmonious, pleasing and eff
fective rendering of the part as
signed to them. Their fidelity alone
was responsible for the great success
they scored.

Little Children's 5
Lenten Services

The first of the series of Lenten
services for children, under the direc-
tion of Mrs. VIM. H. Lynch, was held
at Trinity Episcopal Church on Fri

A large number of children were
present and derived great benefit
from Mrs. Lynch's instruction and
leadership. The children marched in
regular professional and recessional
into and out of the church.
These services will be held every
Friday in Lent at four o'clock. All
are cordially invited to these services,
children as well as adults.

THE PUBLIC FORUM
BILLY'S GOAT-Once upon


time there was goat. 1t was very
big Billy goat, and was called Big Bill
for short. 1t belonged to the city OF
Chicago, and was permitted to roam
freely in the City Hall In fact, it
had a notion that the City Hall was
to be its permanent headquarters.
One day an enterprising individual,
by the name of Freddie, decided that
he could make use of this goat. So
he appointed himself its keeper and
exercised the rights of ownership
over it. 1t wasn't long before the
city of Chicago woke up to the fact
that Freddie had its goat"
Now, visitors to the City Hall soon
after Freddie became the goats keep
er were conscious of peculiar odor
within the City Hall, an odor charac-
teristic of goats. So an investigation
was ordered, and quite stencil was
raised when the habitat of the goat
was discovered. The floor was lit
tered with patronage requests, cam
paign contributions and charity"
checks. The City Hall was cleaned
up from top to bottom. With the air
cleared, the city of Chicago learned
that Freddie's guardianship had
created a Big Bill for Chicago to pay.
Freddie and Big Bill were separated
and the city said Never Again. -

ANARCHY.-For the past weeks
we have been reading on the front
pages of nothing but anarchists de-
stroying churches, poisoning soup,
numbering and throwing bombs.
Everything that was before laid at
the door of German spies is now put
upon the anarchists. Police detec-
tives, who say they represent law
and order broke in like thieves at
night and stole or destroyed.
1t is about time the people stopped
destroying their minds by reading the
corrupt and prostituted yellow press
whose only aim is to keep the truth
away from the people and whose
only existence depends upon the mis-
cry of the poor and disinherited.
Let us read the definition of anar-
chy given in the Century Encyclo-
pedia: "Anarchy-A social theory
which regards the union of order
with the absence of all direct gov
eminent Of man by man as the po-
litical ideal"
In other words, anarchism stands
for the right of every man to be the,
master of his own destiny, neither
ruling or ruled-for a world without
masters and slaves, where each will
enjoy the fruit Of his labor, In order
