George Auison Tells
Of The Joys Of Life
At Camp Wadsworth

George Avison, grandson of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Shelley, of Fifth and
Walker streets has written en- enthu-
siastic letter to his grandparents tell
ing of his life with the boys in khaki
at Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg, S.
C.
George, who was one of the most
popular boys at the Clffside Park
High School, enlisted in the service
of Uncle Sam the day following the
declaration of war. He together with
his chum Tobias Ghetto enlisted in
what was once the famous Seventh
Regiment of the New York National
Guard, but which has now lost its
identity by becoming unit of the
10th Regiment.
Camp life is agreeing with all the
boys, and especially with George, who
writes that he has gained eighteen
pounds since he has taken up the rug
ged outdoor life of camp. He tells
of incessant activity of the drilling
grounds, the trench life, the artillery
instruction, the mass maneouvers and
the other phases of regimental rou-
tine.
He has cultivated many friend
ships among his mates in company B,
and though he expresses sorrow over
his separation from the folks at home,
he is cheerful in the knowledge that
he IS doing his bit and doing it we'll.
He asks to be remembered to his
friends in Cliffside and dwells in the
hope of Christmas furlough.

American Red Cross,
To All Chapters
In Atlantic Division

For the supervisor of Surgical
Dressings.
The following cable has been re-
ceived at National Headquarters from
Major Grayson P. Murphy, head of
the Re dCross commission in France:
"The Red Clo IS has direct respon-
sibility for supplying US with surgical
dressings, and nothing in the whole
situation FER, equally important.
Dressings, and no OF, LdoLfofien w,
ESd Cross standard dressings in mil
lions must be sent over with all pos
sible speed. If this is not done, and
done Immediately, serious calamity
and national disgrace is inevitable.
The American women who compose
the Red Cross Chapters shrould pre-
pare with all the enthusiasm and
speed possible the dressings which are
going to mean life and death to our
own men. This whole question deals
with the most vital thing that the
women of America can do for the
soldiers in this war"
Will you, therefore, notify all work
ers under your jurisdiction to prepare
as rapidly as possible large quantities
of standard dressings realizing the
supply can never equal the demand,
and that supplies should be made and
shipped in such enormous quantities
that the loss Of one shipment, by sub
marine or other unavoidable causes,
may not react upon the men who are
so sorely in need of our assistance.

FINE PROGRAM PRESENTED.

As fine an act in behalf of the SOL
diers ready to go "over there as has
been done by any one in this section
OF New Jersey, was the entertaining
of one hundred of the khaki boys at
Trinity Episcopal Church Guild Hall
last night. They came from Camp
Merritt about seven o'clock in special
trolley cars, and were marched up
Columbia avenue to Palisade avenue
from Palisade Junction to the church.
They made a fine appearance and
presented an unusual spectacle step
ping in fine fettle through the road
ways of Palisade and Grantwood.
The affair was the happy thought
Of Mrs. Fannie Lucas, and was run
under her direct management, with
the assistance of many ladies Of her
church, Palisade, Grantwood and
Cliffside.
The supper was set in attractive
form on long tables, and when the
moment was announced to go to it,
the boys did so with will and hefty
appetites. They were served by pref
ty young ladies, who saw to it that
all the beloved patriots had all that
was coming and then some.
Following the supper there was an
entertainment that lasted several
hours, and which the visitors enjoyed
immensely.

Young Women To
Organize Girls
Epiphany Club

A young ladies' society has been
formed in Grantwood to be called the
Girls Epiphany Club. The club is
composed of young women between
the ages of II and %, and the club
does not confine its membership to
Catholics alone, although started by
a group of Catholic girls.
The election and installation Of Of
ficers took place last Tuesday even
ing in which the following officers
elected: Miss Margaret Mahoney,
president; Miss Esther Derfus, vice.
president; Miss Mary Carroll, treas
urer; Miss Helen Conroy, secretary.
The members have selected bas-
ketball team from their ranks, and
it is said that the five girls selected
are stars, having gained experience
on various prominent basketball teams
of the hilltop. Miss Ellen Conroy
has been chosen captain and has al
ready booked number OF games for
the coming season.
The object of the association is to
organize the girls on the Palisades
into strong body and make it an
organization that will be know from
one end of the county to the other.
The club has already enlisted about
forty to their membership roll and are
anxious to secure the cooperation of
young women of all creeds to join them
in the pursuit of an ideal society that
will be in all respects little Y. w.
C. A.
Athletics Of all kinds will be en-
Outraged. The splendid hall of the
Epiphany Church on Knox avenue will
open it's spacious area to the young
people who would like to engage in
these healthful pastimes.
The club meets every Tuesday eve
ming at 500 o'clock and cordially in
vites young women who would wish
to join their organization to be on
hand.
The girls are now raising a fund in
conjunction with the Young Mems
Catholic Club to equip the hall with
up-to-date gym apparatus.
Socials are being planned to be held
once a month in the hall and the
members are anxiously waiting the
announcement of the first social.

New Light on Loyalty Case-Mr.
Bradshaw Was a Strong Pro-
Germ n-YOung New York
Guardsman Tells of His Former
Attitude.

Much new light has been thrown
on the question of the loyalty of
the Palisade minister by former
acquaintance Of his, who has re-
Gently been interviewed by several
residents of Palisade. This gentle
man, whose name and address are
quite accessible to any who may
inquire at the office of this news
paper, is young New Yorker, who
was recently discharged from the
army for physical disabilities. He
also attended Sunday School class
conducted by Mr.. Bradshaw prior
to the latter's removal to Palisade.
When questioned concerning Mr..
Bradshaw's attitude on the war at
that time, the young man said:
"Mr. Bradshaw was pro-German
to the core. l had frequent argu-
ments with him on the question"
He describes Mr.. Bradshaw as
having greatly irritated his class
by his persistent evasion of the
great issues then under discussion,
such as the causes of the war,
and the inhuman methods employed
by the Germans in conducting it..
Posing as an idealist, Mr.. Brad
shaw continually sugarcoated the
German crimes with silence or eva
sions of the issue.
This evidence will be Of consid-
cradle interest to Palisadians, in
view of the fact that some of those
who have hitherto defended ~
Bradshaw, have tho G
mai 81 .Jurps "a. l!l y (.Il go ~, 6,
that, while he has been at all times
thoroughly out Of sympathy with
the German cause, he could not
bring himself to the point of fight
ing it, or urging others to do so. As a
matter of fact, his real sympathy
was all along with the Germans.
This will perhaps serve to aid in
clearing up the mystery of Mr..
Bradshaw's refusal to sign the 10y
atty pledge at the time of Ameri-
cas- entry into the war, as well as
the cautious half-statements and
evasions in his so-called "loyalty
sermon" of recent date.
