slopes above timber-line; punches OF

insects less troublesome; calves and
yearlings playing over great snow

and pools Of ice-cold water were

view of the great central valley, bor-
dered with monster mountains, which
leads north into Canada. From the
chalet horse trail now building will

leads from the chalet to the top of the
Garden Wall directly overlooking the
Swiftcurrent and Grinnell glaciers.
Another foot trail, involving an hours
steady climb, leads to the summit Of
Swiftcurrent mountain, from which
one looks upon a complete circle of sl-

of the Canadian mountains on the
north, the great plains on the east.

Brown pass, the trail over which
has been little improved since the old

it, is destined to become one or the
most celebrated passes in America.
From the east side the trail leads from
Waterton lake up Olson valley. amid
scenery as sensational as 1t is unusual,
skirting lakes of individuality and I'M

amazingly wild and beautiful cirques

is disclosed some of the widest seen-
cry in the world. From the top Of the
pass, one trail drops down to Bowman
lake, which it follows to its outlet and
thence to a junction with the Flathead

reaches Lake Mcdonald.

sadian" has been criticised by some of
Mr.. Kenny's friends for the stand it
took in the matter. To these critics
it should be known that the fixed
policy of this newspaper is to be
fearless in all matters pertaining to
public interest. 4
It has since developed that Mr..
Kenny has not been appointed to the
Postmastership of brentwood in the
regular way, but through some in
fiuence was put in charge Of the Office
for the time being while the Depart
ment at Washington was getting
ready in it's own time to make out
the Commission> of Mr.. Matteson who
won the Office in competition under
Civil Service rules.
The element of mystery entering
into Mr.. Kenny's temporary appoint
ment was the cause of much specu--
lation, Mr.. Kenny himself declining
to say how he got the Office, and Mr..
Fox, his predecessor keeping mum.
In presenting these simple facts in
the post Office case the "Palisadian"
feels that it has done no more than
it's duty and absolutely without preju-
dice to any interest.

Il all shows how necessity may be-
come the mother Of invention. On
the other hand, the matter of recip-
rocity is an important one in the
equation of the nations. We must
find outlets for American products,
and Germany has always been a fine
patron of our wares. The German
nation, however, has found a way to
do without American goods, just as
we have been able to take care of
ourselves without Germany. And
while it is yet too early to forecast
results and conditions as they may
be after the war, it is safe to assume
that America will find way to
make ends meet. 1t is equally safe
to say that it is going to take the
world hundred yearsto forget Ger
man atrocities in this war, and she
will suffer accordingly. But were a
famine or plague to overtake Ger
many after the war, the worlds
heart would no doubt warm up to a
form of charity that would meet the
situation. Nevertheless, America
will long contest Germany's conduct
in the present war. A feeling has
taken hold that is deep rooted against
her.

German Goods After Wur

Considerable discussion is going or
in the public press regarding Ameri-
cas- position relative to German
trade after the war. Some news
papers think it would be unethical to
boycott German products, others be-
lieve it is the right thing to do. Per
haps from diplomatic viewpoint the
United States will undertake to main
tain reciprocal relations with Ger
many, but satisfying the sentiment. of
the individual American is another
matter. The pulpit breaches the sin
of hate, referring, of course, to hat
ing people, dispising ones neighbor.
The Bible just as radically pronoun-
ces in favor of hating sin and evil.
1t is on the latter grounds that con-
science will excuse itself in fighting
against giving recognition to German
products.
The war has taught us to do with
out many things that were previous
ly unobtainable anywhere except in
Germany, and necessity has put
American genius to work inventing
our own processes of making these
.hings we got from Germany.

is vunfortunate that these war con-

should do what individuals are doing

If the new school could be built on
some cooperative plan, where every
man (and some women) could go out
and bring in stone, or many of them,
and place them at the site of new
high school building, and then aid in
the labor of laying them with their
Town hands under the direction of a
master mason, it could be constructed
at moderate cost. Physical labor is
honorable, noble even. 1t would not
hurt few hundred men to go out and
perform work of this character.
There are enough weathered rocks in
these Fort Lee woods to build the
outside walls of several schools, and
unquestioned. This is one way to
build high school now. Concerted
action would do it, too. But to go
into the matter of erecting 100000
thigh school now under contract, would
mean $4,000 building in normal
Times. The borough is not able to
make such a sacrifice at this time,
and especially in the face of the as
assessment system of taxation now ex-
listing in the borough where land
holders place most of the burden OF
taxation on home owners, and where
politics and pull have kept the
ubiquitous thing working overtime.

Fort Lee High School

Without in the slightest degree de
string to .antagonize the Fort Lee
Board of. Education in it's efforts to
build two new schools in the borough
the "Palisadian" does not believe it
is just to the taxpayers to do any
building of any kind at this time.
Everybody knows this newspapers
stand on Educational facilities. 1T
wishes there were a school on every
other block; it sincerely wants a high
school building of the finest character
and quality because it will be the
best benefit that could come to the
borough of any kind.

A Question And An AnsUer

Many of us in the great army of
stay-at- themes chafe over our inaction
during this war time and ask, "How
can l help?" The editor of the Brook
Ign Eagle gives this answer:
"Those who regard the sale of War
Savings Stamps as a side enterprise
or as something that appeals mainly
to children totally miss the purpose
behind plan which is one Of the
best thus far evolved for war pur-
poses. In the last analysis the sell
ling of these Stamps is the fitting
of the whole nation to sustain the
burden of the war. 1t is the applica-
ton to war finance of the principle Oh
universal service. 1t aims to enlist
all Sof the American people in direct
support of that gallant minority
among them who have answered the
call to arms and prepared themselves
for the firing line.
The War Savings Stamps supply
the final and conclusive answer to the
question: "How can | help?"

and as legislative agents" continued
the opinion. "Thd Legislature may
entrust to municipal corporations
certain powers and may even au-
thorize them to make irrepealable
contracts, but the court ought to be,
as they have been astute to see
that such powers are not unneees-
sarily extended by implications"
The decision thdn recites that the
powers given to municipalities un-
der the Traction Acts of 1893 and
1896 were limited to consent to con-
struct, operate and maintain lines,
location of tracks, and the imposing
Of lawful restrictions, but nowhere
was there express authority to con-
tract, although consent might have
the "force and effect" of a contract.
"When, as in this case" says the
opinion, "the state, through it's
Board Of Public Utility Commission
ers, exercises it's sovereign power
over rates, the contract rights of the
parties must yield. This gives the
municipal action the force and effect
of an irrepealable contract"
1t would not be reasonable for a
municipality without express power

holds the Errors Court. In his dis
senting opinion, Judge White holds
that municipality is a State agency
just as we'll as the Pubic Utility
Commission, and that one is as much
bound by contract as the other. He
also says that an agreement which
has the "force and effort" of a con-
tract, must be regarded as con-
| tract,

Anita Stewart's DUN
Story OF Why She

fever" confided Anita Stewart to
Gladys Hall in the August Motion

was over, my doctor told me that l
must positively take a six-months
rest-at the very least. l had been
working lat the time for six years
without single vacation, and then
the fever and all-and I certainly
needed one. Well, Vitagraph insisted
upon my returning in two weeks

The Girl Phillipa' had to be finished

I returned but it nearly finished me.
l went down to simply nothing, and
to make matters worse, they had abb
'solutely no consideration for me

BILE. We worked day and night, some
times anywhere, and when we were
finally done, had a complete ner-
vous breakdown. Why / used to
have to sit between scenes wrapped
up in three and four coats to keep
from having chills. So, contrary to
report, / left the company because l
felt that had been very unkindly
treated, to state' the case mildly, and
because of the treatment I was to-
tally unfit for any further work. Peo-
pie say that because Vitagraph won
their case against me, that will not

But perhaps the only logical an

But perhaps the only logical an
swer is in the German war machine.
Every touch of efficiency that could
be thought of, every leak that could
be stopped anywhere, every ounce of
strength that could be conserved, has
been put into the German war engine.
In saving waste alone Germany has
added tremendously to her strength.
Every man, every woman, every child,
has been taught that it is a crime to
pare a potato Or peel an apple. Every
bone is saved, every scrap of every
thing preserved. There are no vast
ed nails, pins, bread, cloth, rags,
wood, or any 1eavings" of any kind
anywhere-not even sewer water.
Everything that can be by any pro-
cess saved and turned into some
other agent of aid to the country has
been scrupulously cared for. This
one thing of conservation alone has
made Germany remarkable.
Yet with all of this care taking, it
has been done not for mankind but
for supporting autocracy. No King
is better than his subjects, yet the
Kaiser is god! All of Germany's
usurpation Of strength; all of her
adaptation of the worlds ideas are
for holding in power the arrogance
of autocracy and the sel6shness Of
military insolence. Surely it will all
and sometime, somewhere. If not on
the fields of France, under the linden
trees of Berlin. Those of us who be-
ieve in the justice of God cannot
reconcile the continued dominance Of
this monster Of greed with the mean
ing and feeling of truth. The un--
righteous war will end when German
iniquity has been crushed, but the
task of doing it has already made
the contest appalling in its severity.
America has not lived boasting ma
ton. But it is natural that with her
ideals always trained to higher things
and unselfish ends she has gone into
the business of ending the war with
purpose to crush for all time the
the petty ASPIRATIONS of the villianous
autocrats and insulting military rats
that have overloaded their own people
and are now striking at the rights
of all humanity, and saying that
