HOUSES OF PoMPEIl INTACT
Remarkable Display Of Advertisements
Found on Walls Of Buildings in
the Euried City.

! have inst examined, with the aid
Of Professor Spinazzola, the distin-
guished archeologist, who superin-
tends the excavations, the latest dis
coveries made in the little Roman
city Of Pompeii, says a writer Ia the
London Daily Mail. The most in
teresting are in the Street Of Alum
dance, where the interiors Of the
houses have recently been cleared,
and where, as | described some time
ago, a complete tavern was discoy-
cred.
Most important finds have been
made at the house of a rich person
age named Trebius Valens. i
long front, protected by broad roof
Of tiles, is painted in red letters IN
extraordinary display of advertise
ments Of all kinds. One announces
that a gentleman and patron q
Pompeii, Lucretius Status, will give
feast in the amphitheater, provid-
ing thirty pairs Of gladiators, while
his son will add ten more pairs. This
seems to have been the usual num-
Der, as similar announcements have
been found BY other advertisers on
other walls
Trebius' entrance hall, dining hall
and garden are now intact as they
were on that day of fire and terror
1900 years ago.

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?


Did you ever stop to think that our
town is town that enjoys many nat
ural and acquired resources; a town
that needs but the skillful manipula-
ton of man to make them yield boun-
fully of their rich treasure; sub
stantial town whose foundations are
laid upon soil that cannot be sur
passed for productiveness; town sup
piled with the very best and purest of
water; town whose educational adj
vantags have rachel a standard thru
the skillful direction of competent
officials, second to that of no other
place; town where harmony among
the commandments of the different
churches is in perfect accord with the
object sought by our forefathers of
the "Mayfiower" and all doctrines are
ably expound with untrammeled free
dom from the pulpits of our differ
ent churches; town whose social adj
vantages ar equal to those afforded
by places many times it's size and age;
town where the rich enjoy every
luxury desired and the poor are not
allowed to suffer; town where peace
and good will toward all men is ex-
emplified?

THESE MORNINGS.

Under the above heading an ex--
change gives the following good adj
vice:
Get up early in the morning, 2
wrote Thackery, cor you will be late
all day
And Scott is credited with this sem
timent, "He who misses the early
hours of the day cannot gain them
bacls-no matter how hard he tries"
October mornings are crisp. The
cool air is invigorating The trees
are seldom more beautiful There is
health in every breath of air. And he
who lets October mornings is missing
something big.
Sleep till eight or nine O'Clock these
mornings? President Wilson can't af-
ford to do it.
Lie in bed until the morning begins
to push aginst noon? The soldiers
can't afford to do it.
Allow half-slumber to use up the
big hours of the early day? No
real man can afford to do it.
Let the clock strike eight or nine
as a signal to rise? Well, just recall
the sentence in the papers recently:
Field Marshal Haig's forces began
their great new offensive against the
Germans at six a. m.

The real estate business in probably
more active in our town just now than
1T has been in years, and there's a
reason. The town has been well ad-
vertised and people who know, are
coming to realize it is logic and good
sense to buy land here now when there
is almost certainly that within five
or six years it will be twice the pres
ent value. Advertising attracts peo-
pie to a place and then good values
In lands make purchasers.

KINGS WERE GENEROUS.

In bestowing war honors in Hyde
park, London, as he did recently
the king did not follow the example
Of some of his royal predecessors and
give away portions of the park itself
George II recognizing a man who
begged Of him one day as an old sol
der who had fought under him at
Dettingen, promptly gave the man
a strip of land in Hyde park to erect
stall, and the mans descendants
sold it for a small fortune to Lord
Bathurst as part of the site of APPS
ley house. George III, too, reward
ed Mrs. Sims, who had lost six
sons in the wars, by building her a
little cottage in Hyde park.

THE BEGINNING OF A MAN

That was good answer which was
given at Band of Hope meeting,
when visitor asked the question,
What is boy?"
A little fellow started from his seat,
and replied, 'boy, sir, is the beginn-
ing of man."
That was true answer, for every
man was once boy. Let us remem-
Der that what boy is usually de-
cides what kind of man he will be-
come.
So, boys, be true, be honest, kind,
brave, and Industrious now, and then
when you have grown to be men, you
will be the kind of men that our
country Selected.

Palisade Barber

Philip Basile, the Palisade barbe,

Gently responded to the call of coun-
try, and met the draft with prompt
ness. He duly went down to Camp
Dix with John Lane, Bobbie Craymer
and others. Phil was put into har-
ness right away, and among other
things was asked to clean up around
his corner of the camp. When a
guard came along after Phil had fin
ished his work he saw some cigarette
stumps laying around.
"Here," said the guard, "there are
some cigarette stumps over there. !"
ooh, ! don't SMOKE" replied the
barber, in the most innocent way in
the world.
you don't, Ell? Well, yours for
the kitchen police job" and Phil was
put at peeling potatoes.

Warning to America.

The Providence Journal daily
prints the following warning to
America:
Every German or Austrian in
the United States, unless known
by years of association to be alb
sOlutely loyal, should be treated
as potential spy. Keep your eyes
and ears open. Whenever any sus-
picious act or disloyal word comes
to your notice communicate at once
with the Bureau of Investigation
of the Department of Justice,
Washington, d. c.
We are at war with the most
merciless and inhuman nation in
the world. Hundreds of thousands
OF its people in this country want
to see America Inundated and
beaten to her knees, and they are
doing everything in their power to
bring this about.
Take nothing for granted. En-
ergy and alertness in this direction
may save the life of your son, or
husband, or your brother.

SPLIT IN CHURCH GROWING.

The Bradshaw incident was again
the center of public gossip this week
on account of the great amount of
publicity it attained through the COM
ments of the various New York news
papers last Monday. A reporter OF
a news bureau had come to Palisade
on Sunday and attended the morning
services at the Union Church, and hav-
ing copies of "The Palisadian" with
him, he proceeded to write an inter-
esting story which weft to all the
New York papers that were patrons
of his bureau. The result was SER
les of articles commenting on Rev:
Bradshaw's attitude on the war. and
quoting many things from the local
newspaper. The sytems in vogue
with all the New York papers is to
verify important news stories that
are sent in from adjacent territory,
so several reporters came to Palisade
and interviewed various parties re-
garding the Bradshaw incident, in
Guiding the minister himself.
The Times had the longest and most
elaborate story, not quite as long or

New Jersey should be afame for
the Red Cross from now until Christ
mas, according to the elaborate pro-
gram mapped out by Forrest F. Dry
den of Newark, State Chairman in
charge of the Christmas Drive of the
American Red Cross for 100000
members.
Mass meetings will be held every
where in the state and New Jersey
will begin to realize the glorious work
that the Red Cross is doing.
There will be parades in every
county, plenty of music, singing and
speeches by heroes who have been in
the trenches and gone over the top.
Moving pictures of actual battle
scenes will be flashed across the screen
and the work of mercy of the Red
Cross for the wounded soldiers will be
wildly displayed to the audiences.
The largest churches, halls and thea
tres in every county will be packed
at the ass-meetings. Admission
will be free. The only thing to be
asked for is a pledge from everyone
present to help secure new members
