Sheep ON the Farm.

Sheep are good farm help. They will
range farm from early spring until
late fall, feeding Off weeds and
growths that other stock will not
touch. A small flock will NOW the
orchard and keep down the weeds
about windbreaks, fences and build
ings. All Of this is simply incidental
velvet" as the wool clip pays for the
fock's keep. The mutton return is the
main source of profit. Besides, the high
value of farm land. which compe,a
farmers to fence their sacres for hogs
and other stock, lightens the added ex-
pense for keeping sheep.
This year with wool at 10 and 10
cents pound above normal prices aud
mutton higher than 1t has ever lteen,
any farmer is assured handsome, re-
turns If he gives his flock reasonable
care.

Naw Caledonia.

Until 1853 New Caledonia was a sort
of no mans land. Then both England
and France decided to annex 1t, and
orders came to two warships to pro-
coed thither at once. They started the
same day. The English captain had
heard Of the reefs that surround the
island, and he was cautious. The
Frenchman went ahead without regard
for the reefs. When the British cap
tain arrived he saw the tricolor flying
from hill, and he was invited to come
in and lunch on French soil.

Fire Company Will
Hold Important Meet

b =
Cards are being sent out to call a
meeting Of the Hudson heights Fire
Co. on next Tuesday evening, April
10. It is now planned to have the
company taken over by North Ber-
gen and it is understood that this can
be accomplished providing the COM
pany has members who are residents
of Hudson county only. The limit OF
such company would be twenty-five
members and it is needless to say
that this step, to have the town take
over the company, is sadly needed.
The Hudson Heights Fire Com
pany in it's present state is sad ex-
ample of a fire organization and it
is about time that the residents of
the town woke up to the fact that in
the event of a fire neir homes, and
possibly some loved one would be
lost. There is absolutely no equip
ment in the company as it now
stands. To even attempt to fight a
fire with the present apparatus would
be nothing short of joke.
1t is hoped by persons who have
interested themselves in the matter
that few of the towns worthy
citizens will turn out next Tuesday
night and at least have look at the
apparatus that is in the fire house.

Newark, April 5.-Plans and esti-
mates of cost of construction and
operation of. vehicular tunnel to
connect New Jersey and New York
were outlined by President Thomas
N. McCarter, of Public Service Cor
poration of New Jersey, at meet
ing of the Newark Board of Trade
last night. The session was held
in the Hotel Robert Treat, and the
facts laid before some 500 business
men had been gathered at an ex-
pense of approximately $4,000. The
work was financed by Public Service
and was done by committee con-
sisting of Mr.. McCarter, George j.
Roberts, Percy Ingalls,, Martin
Schneider and Walton Clark, all Pub
lie Service officials, assisted by some
OF the most eminent engineers in the
country.
The foundation work of the COM
mittee included researches and in
vestigations which the New York and
New Jersey Interstate Bridge and
Tunnel Commission have keen en-
deavoring for several years to Sc
cure funds to carry out. Public
Service undertook the project as a
private enterprise, but Mr.. McCar-
ter announced the corporations will
ingness to either go on with the
work itself, or to cooperate with the
wo states if it is deemed more ad-
visable to construct such vehicular
tunnel under public ownership.

School Board Fight
Ends In Deadlock;
Lawyers On Both Sides

| That there is a wide breach be-
tween the two factions of the Fair
view Board of Education came to
light at meeting of the Trustees
last Monday night when that body
of men met for the purpose of re-
organizing. But their purpose" met
with complete failure and the meet
ing turned out to be one of the most
sensational affairs quaint old Fair
view has witnessed In many a moon.
The meeting was fight from
start to finish and it lasted two solid
hours. And both factions were rep
resented by attorneys which gave
evidence that the trouble was antici-
pated.
Trustee Bolz, who was elected
temporary chairman, opened the
meeting by asking for nominations
for the office of president of the
board. Two names were mentioned,
Robert Hopkins for reelection and
Trustee George Ebel.
On roll call Mr.. Hopkins received
four votes, the ayes being TrustAeI
LipA|sAg fl1snhs gplz ar1 & opkinss !.
Those to oppose MI. Hopkins we're
Trustees Ebel, Cavanaugh, Stein
boch and Schinkel. This made the
vote tie. The clerks attention was
then called to the fact that he had
had past Trustee Gerlach on the roll
call.
81 know j." he answered, Mr.. Ger
ZACH signified his intentions of vot-
ing in favor of Mr.. Ebel which would
mean Ebel's election by Sd vote.
The clerk, however, refused to en-
terrain Gerlach's vote. He explained
by saying that he had charges to
prefer against his colleague in that
he (Gerlach) had presented bills for
payment by the board which, accord
ing to the district clerk, is in strice
violation he law governing legis
laive bodies.
1t was alleged by Clerk Linskey,
that Mr.. Gerlach is the owner of the
Fairview Express, which company it
was said at the meeting has been
doing whatever hauling the schools
have needed. Mr.. Linskey's stand
brought on heated discussion
which consumed the resteof the meet
ing.
Attorney A. C. Hart, who was on
hand to look after Mr.. Gerlach's af-
fairs, stated that the clerk had no
RICH to act as jury and judge in he
case and added that "any court in
the land will tell you the same
thing. You can prefer charges
against your colleague" continued
Mr.. Hart, 'but you have no right or
authority to pass on his guilt"
Attorney Mccarthy, of the firm of
Eagan and Mccarthy, who are coun-
sellers for the board, differed with
Mr.. Harris opinion, however, and adj
vised the clerk not to record Ger
lacks vote. The clerk took Attorney
McCarthy's advise in the matter,
however, and refused to record the
vote He announced that as far as
he was concerned the vote was tie

Birds Are Champion
Bug-Eaters, Helping
To Save The Crops
Birds as Crop Protectors

The New Jersey Audubon Society
from it's headquarters at 164 Market
street, Newark, N. j., in the present
crisis when preparations are being
made to conserve in every way the
food supply of the country, and to
increase the acreage and production
of all vegetable food, is calling at
tention to the increased Importance
of protecting and multiplying the
bird life that serves as most i'm
portant vegetation guard.
The increase of bird tenants on
every farm, garden and lawn of our
New Jersey homes is urged as a
practical and utilitarian need.
Attention is directed to the known
instances of pair of rose-breasted
grossbeaks with their young, keep
ing an entire potato patch free from
the destructive beetles; one half
grown bobwhite devouring 1,186
rose slugs in single day; meadow
lark averaging over thirty grass
hoppers to a meal, while grass
hoppers are known to consume sew
eral times their own weight in hay
or grain in q day; a hooded warbler
observed catching insects at the rate
of tow minute or one hundred and
sixty day, and Throughout the sum-
mer the birds have no union labor
hours. These are a few citations
from thousands of concrete examples
of the direct and practical economic
value of birds in saving our vegetable
food through destruction of injurious
insect pests.
Not only is it urged that through
the attracting of birds about houses,
by putting up of bird houses, estab-
fishing of bird baths, and winter
feeding of wild birds, that their
numbers be increased where their
presence will bring the most direct
benefits to man, but the Society en-
tiers an urgent plea to the public to
support its work in making known
to the people the practical value of
birds as well as the aesthetic import
ance of their presence, and the es-
tablishing of the right sort of rela-
tionship between man and his
feathered benefactors.
The Society calls attention to the
fact that is present funds are furn-
ished by less than two thousand
adult members scattered through one
hundred and eighty-fve towns in the
State, and providing a yearly income
far below the requirements of such
an important work, and it urges that
in no other way can greater benefits
result to the people of the State
than through a greatly increased
membership, with its moral and
financial support.

Police Improvements
Planned By Board,
10 Order Motorcycle

T At meeting of the Police Com.
mittee of the Board of Council OF
Clifside, held Tuesday night, many
radical plans were put through for
the improvement of the Police De-
partment, and at the completion OF
the work now in progress this Dor
ough will surely have the finest
equipped and most efficient police
system in all eastern Bergen county.
Work is now being rushed on the
signal boxes, and when they are
finally turned over to the Police De-
partment it will be possible to get a
policeman at any hour of the day or
night.
Bells on Boxes
Large, loud bells will be attached
to every box and the man at head
quarters can get the patrolman On
any post in Cliffside by merely push
ing button. The patrolmen will
also have to report regularly from
the boxes on their posts and head
quarters will know where every man
is at all times.
Man on all Night
A policeman will be stationed at
the Borough Hall every minute of
the day and night. Coupled with
this the possibility of always being
able to get the policeman out on duty
will bring the department up to 100
per cent efficiency.
Siren Emergency Call
A siren alarm will be in working
order soon, and special signal will
be used Tor getting all the policemen
in the borough and citizens prepared
for emergency duty. Should an

Is Is rs n
At Last we Are At War

The fOrmality of America
entering war against Ger
many has at last arrived.
The nation had no other
choice if it remained among
the brave peoples of the
world.
From last Monday when
the President delivered his
message to a joint session
of congress the issue was
clear and decisive.
No man in all history ever
fought with such strategy
or used the weapons of d.
plOmacy with such cOnsum-
mate art as Woodrow Will
son did for over two years
to convince the German gov
eminent that its methods
were contrary to the law of
nations and against the
rights of humanity. History
affords no parallel case to his
untiring patience. He has
long known the impossible
ity of Germany yielding to
his demands, but in the face
of this knowledge he taxed
his own and the cOuntry's
patience in still trying to
solve the problem of maxi
ing Germany see.
And now that the veil of
doubt has been lifted, the
country breathes easier in
the feeling of certainty that
the cause for which we are
to fight is righteous and
true.
There will be no more
wavering, no more hesita-
ton. But as the needle is
to the pole SO Americas
course will be shaped with
direction and purpose.
Hail to every sentiment ,
expressed by Woodrow Will
sons message to the nation ,
and humanity!
Hail to the fixedness of
purpose that gives us I'M |
fiinching courage to-dayA }
Hail n every tIs, !, i;,:lE S. J.
.iustice 4n5 I0Ya
mist actual ever! snC M,
SON, father and daughter ct
our land at this m0menti.
Hail to she -uziforms, and
the men in them and their
leaders, that must soon
march through our streets
in responce to their coun-
try's call!
There is no thought Of
hatred to the German peO-
pie in our preparations. We !
are not against them, but
solidly against their coun-
try's attack upon humanity's
cause.
In this solemn moment we
are not launching our re-
sources against an enemy
for conquest, but in behalf
of truth and justice and the /,
rights of all nations and all
peoples.
Whatever comes of our de-
termination to strip for the
conflict, no criticism will
ever come against our mo-
tives. They are as full of
conscience and right as the
cause of heaven.

MAYOR CADIEN MAKES DECIDED HIT.

The Home Defence meeting at the
high school auditorium last Satur-
day night was great success, there
being good-sized audience pres
ent, numbering nearly six-hundred in
all. A huge American flag was
festooned across the rear wall of the
stage, and made a beautiful decora-
ton for the occasion. The flag was
loaned by Major S. Wood McClave,
and is one of the largest in this
section, being about twenty-five feet
long.
The long wait for the opening of
the speeches was enlivened by Nj.
Shorey's Grantwood orchestra, and
the young boys under the leadership
of Mr.. Shorey made most acceptable
music. They played patriotic airs
and classical selections.
1t was almost nine O'Clock before
the speaking began, dut to the fact
that there had been a dinner at the
University Club, of the Palisades,
which delayed those on the program.
Assistant Prosecutor Agnew acted as
master of ceremonies, and introduced
the speakers with a pleasant allusion
in each case.

Eat LessJ Do More.

A fat nation Is no good. Lean ma.
lions accomplish things We should
eat less and think more, have smaller
girth and larger chests. less on the hip
and more on the thorax. have fewer
potatoes at dinner and more books
after dinner, more exercise and less
chewing. A strong person can subsist
on little oatmeal and philosophy and
outwalk, outtalk, outthink, and in ev-
cry way Guido the person who travels
the long route from soup to nuts and
goes to sleep afterward as an anaconda
full of sheep or monkeys might. Life
is lean affair Of hungry appetites and
ambitions. Then they stimulate to
earnest performance. The regeneration
Of the American nation begins at the
dinner table. We need stOutness in
soul not soutness in fat Eat less and
do more. Grow more above the neck
and less below the stomach.-Chicago
