Raeder Leaves,
Gives Appealing Word
To Endeauor Society

Miss Agnes Raeder, who has been
conducting the Sunday evening Chris
tian Endeavor Society meetings at
the Palisade Union Church since
January, has terminated her work for
the season and left for her home in
Pennsylvania. She graduated this
week from the Bible Training School
in New York, where she took the
highest honors.
During her work in Palisade Miss
Raeder has undertaken to teach the
young people of Palisade the life of
Christ as portrayed in the Book Of
Matthew. She has painstakingly
gone into an analysis of the life and
character of the Gentle Nazarine, and
used so much force and explanatory
detail, and expounded so faithfully
and eloquently the meaning of the
sacrifices of Jesus, and what it all
means to the spiritual welfare of the
world, that one has wondered how
she ever mastered her subject SO per-
fectly and well. There have been
times when Miss Raeder seemed al
most inspired in her simple eloquence,
and there is no doubt but that she
is young woman of tremendous
power in her chosen field of endeavor.
She is especially forceful in her
prayer deliveries. Her supplications
to the Throne of grace and her petit
tions for peace, always couched in
the simple language of the genuine
heart-appeal, have many times moved
her hearers to the tenderest emotion.
1t is Miss Raeder's natural gifts. her
ability to tell her meaning in SIM
plicity OF utterance that make her a
most remarkable expounder of the
gospel. She is as admirable
preacher of the gospel as could be
desired or imagined Sometimes she
rises to such heights of feeling that
one imagines she is truly inspired.
On Sunday evening when she spoke
her little farewell to the boys and
girls there was the deepest tender
ness in her expression. She hoped,
she prayed, she said, that she had
left thought, word, message, a
token of appreciation for Jesus in the
lives of at least some of the boys and
girls of Palisade that they would
long remember.

School Boards Must
Make Own Decisions
On Military Training

Trenton, May 28.-That the State
Federation of District Boards of
Education is in favor of letting each
individual board decide for itself the
question of military training in the
high schools was apparent at it's
meeting here on Saturday when the
organization refused to adopt a
resolution urging the different
boards to adopt the training in the
event of the State Board of Educa-
tion failing to approve it. The State
Board meets next Saturday and un-
der the Pierson physical training
law, enacted at the last session, any
local board may submit the propo-
sition of military instruction for high
school boys to vote Of its constitu-
ents in case the State Board fails to
approve. It is doubtful if the lat
ter will approve the proposition.
Singularly enougbk the resolution
of a militant nature was offered by
the Rev. George M. Harper, an Epis-
copal Clergyman, pastor of the st.
Luke's Episcopal church, of Glad
stone, Somerset county.
II believe military training is the
best thing boy can have, both for
its effect on discipline and as a mat
ter of physical training" declared
Rev. Mr.. Harper.
The spectacle of two former Ma
tional Guardsmen getting into an
argument as to the peace advantages
of the State Militia was witnessed in
the discussion which followed the Of
fering of the resolution.
President Frank McGilliard, of
the Bridgeton Board of Education,
who holds an honorable discharge
from the Third New Jersey Infantry,
declared emphatically that the train
ing given the Guardsmen in time of
peace is negligible" and he added
that the state was wasting money in
imparting it.
E. H. Fox, of the Cliffside Board
OF Educatlon, bergen county, a for
mer member of the Seventy-frst,
New York, and also the Connecticut
militia, took decided objection to the
remarks of Mr.. McGilliard. The lat
ter was opposed to the Harper reso-
luton and Mr.. Fox strongly for it.
1t was inferred during the discus
sion that the measure might be re-
garding as an effort to coerce the
State Board into a favorable decision
on the proposition. This was denied
by Mr.. Harper.
The delegates passed another reso-
luton urging all schools to hold spe-
cial exercises on June5, the day for
military registration. This is holi-
day, but it was suggested that the
schools might be open for this pur-
pose.

Cliffside Cubs Defeat
Fultons OF Grantwood

One dxAcSe best games of this sea-
son w& pAsgIad, last Sunday on fha
Grantwood Fairgrounds. The score
was to 2, but it took the winners
twelve innings to come out on top.
In the twelfth inning with two men
on base, McGrath, who was playing
center field, misjudged a fly and two
men went over the plate.
In the last half of the ninth Nc
Goldisk hit the ball for what looked
good for a couple of bases when
Nozer, who was playing left field for
the victors, made a lucky stab. The
next two men up were put out on
the bases.
Frank O'Leary who pitched for the
losers deserved to win the game but
the Grantwood boys did not hit be-
hind him. All their clouts were in
the air, and the Cliffside boys got
under them. We struck sixteen men
out. While Varley, the Cliffside
twirler made nine strike outs.
There were many fans present, the
grandstand being full.
Shelton, Davis, Danmann and Nc.
Farland also starred for the losers,
while Winters and Smith starred
for the victors.
Mr.. Grath, who made two errors
for the Grantwooders, is excused be-
cause he was recently bitten by a
dog.
The score by innings:
Cliffside Cubs O010100 O0O2-4
Fultons 100000 01OOOO-2
Batteries, Cliffside: Varley and
Munley; Fultons: O'Leary and Nc

Observe June S Solemnly

June should be observed with
great solemnity. It is the day that
America offers the finest and best of
her substance for the benefit of hu-
manity. eff / am bereft Of my chill
dren, | am bereaved," sighed Jacob,
and everyone who has read that tale
has sympathized with him. Don't
think that the jovial swaggerer
makes the only soldier. It is the sad
faced, determined man of principle,
like the Puritan, that puts up the
winning fight. The Kaiser's knees
will knock together when Americas
army lands it's full force on his badly
shaken boundary line.

Proper Taxes on Land

The Russian Revolution was really
aimed at the private ownership of
land All the accounts that have
come to us show that the peasants
can hardly wait for a fair division
of the land which has been literally
"stolen" from the great landed pro-
prietors. Now, if these people could
be brought to see that every indi-
vidual Russian, whether farmer, or
mechanic had an equal right to the
land of Russia, then there would be
no injustice in allowing the land to
be occupied by anyone, provided he
paid every other Russian to keep off
his property by means of an annual
rent charge paid to the government,
which money should be used for the
public benefit in lieu of taxes"
Conceive of this system in Palisade!

.Conscenicious Obiectorso

Poof! ''They ought to have kept out

of new abbatoir in Chicago, but go
on fattening themselves just as usual.
It is a pity these inanities cannot
meet the fate of the poor animals.
