the road to recovery when the heart
suddenly weakened and pneumonia de-
veloped, and he passed quickly away,
unconscious for some time before the
final end on Tuesday. He was sur
rounded by several members of his
family, including Mrs. LeCato, BROTH
er and two of his business associates.
Mr.. LeCatO was a man of marked
abilities and was at the head of a
large and prosperous business at Fifty
second street and Twelfth avenue.
New York, the Standard Pneumatic
Action Company, manufacturers of an
automatic piano player He was the
principal owner, and the concern en-
ployed about 1000 hands, one of the
most successful in the country. They
do large business, which will be con-
tinued. Mr.. LeCato was forty-eight
years of age and was born in Virginia,
coming to New York when about seven
years of age with his fathers family.
He had lived in Palisade for the past
four years, his home being the finest
in the village. He came here from
Grantwood, having lived there for
fourteen years. He was president of
the Bluff Road Association, which was
organized for the purpose of fighting
the encroachment of the state highway
that has been surveyed to run through
the heart of Palisade. He was one of
the most earnest workers of the or
ganiZation and said he would spend
fortune to prevent the running of the
town by this thoroughfare. He was a
progressive man in the most modern
sense and gave his business the most
careful attention. He was a man of
fine character and generally liked by
large number of friends and business
associates. His employees were all at
tached to him, and he had always
looked after their interests. Besides
his wife, he leaves four brothers and
three sisters. One of his brothers,
Edwin LeCato, lives in Grantwood ut
present. Funeral services were held
at the residence in Palisade Thursday
night at s O'Clock, and the church
funeral was at the Collegiate Church
of ST. Nicholas, Forty-eighth street
and Fifth avenue, New York, which
was attended by large concourse, in
Guiding the workmen of his factory
and business associates. There was
a wealth of flowers sent by friends
from many sections. Nearly 60 floral
pieces were included.
The beautiful Episcopal service was
conducted at the LeCato home by Rev.
Marshall F. Montgomery of Trinity
parish, Grantwood, who delivered as
eloquent an Grafton as could be put
into tender, feeling thought. A quar-
tet choir sang Lead. Kindly Light"

AS chairman of the Cliffside Park
branch, American Red Cross, may I
ask that you give publicity to the fol-
lowing:
The appeal for old clothing with
which to clothe the destitute people
of Belgium and France met with a
hearty response in the borough of
Cliffside Park, and splendid supply
of clothing was obtained for this pur-
pose. There were over 700 articles
sent, weighing over 600 pounds.
Following this came the ''linen

HANS LOBERT SORRY,
But SAYS GERMANY

The GrantwoOd German-American
in his efforts to prove his loyalty to
the Fatherland by singing the praises
of the Kaiser and calling him "a gen
tleman" and 1.-The finest man in the
world" finds a counterpart in another
expression of similar loyalty here
abOuts. The morning following the
signing of the armistice Palisadian,
meeting well known German-Ameri,
can, asked:
what do you think about it now?"
"Oh, that's nothing. Germany will
soon recover. She'll get over it quick
er than France or England. She'll be
out before the world again greater
than ever"
That's giving comfort to the enemy,

Different VIEWS
ON THE WAR FEELING
BY TWO IN UNIFORM

! II suppose you are glad the war is
over and you won't have to get into
it?' said Palisadian to young fell
low in uniform the other day.
well, yes. I'm glad it's over, but
I'm sorry l didn't get into it," replied
the boy.
do you think there is any fun in
being shot at?"
"Fun, no but glory and satisfaction
a-plenty. That's how I feel about it.
I'm both glad and disappointed That's
what"
"a very manly answer" said the
scribe.
Per contra.
| Another man in uniform.
"Well, young man, l know you are
glad the war is over"
"Bet your life am. l never wanted
to go In"
"But it was your duty"
"Well, had to be drafted If there
was so much anxiety to get into the
war why didn't they all volunteer?"
young men are hesitant about vol
unteering the world over. 1t is human
nature. But when the draft calls, they
obey-they feel their duty"
"Why didn't they volunteer?'
1.-THE draft is a process of pointing
the way. 1t let's man see the neces-
sity of making the sacrifice"
"Why did so many slackers exist?"
There were not many slackers.
They were a mere neutrality-suspicious.
not one man in twenty thousand"
"But many ran out of the country"
"No; only an extremely small num-
Der They were not as many as the
slackers-not a tenth as many. We
made wonderful showing in getting
our armies together without many OBJ
jectors. They were insignificant, real
ly, as factors to contend with. This
fact made them conspicuous"

Thoughts Of Today
we Have Tried This-lt's True.

The pathway from the Amusement
park to the ferry, as every one knows,
is zigzag. Half way down the first
stretch there is break in the hand
rail, and at that point the Goat Lovers
path begins.
1t is jagged way, stepping from
rock to root of tree and perpendicu-
lar climb in most places. 1t is most
enjoyable to Chamber down on fine
morning and equally enjoyable to
scramble up in the glow of the evening.
Any one taking this exercise regularly
will lose all tendency to corpulence and
slOth
Stealing a Bridge Railing.
On Thursday of last week some one
with desire to acquire supply of
wood in the simplest manner proceed
ed to smash and wrench away the hand
rails of the bridge work on the zigzag,
tearing up a plank and leaving a dan
gerous hole not quite foot wide, but
wide enough for foot to go through
The reckless wretch wrecked the side
of the bridge, leaving an unprotected
space with sheer drop of 30 feet at
the edge of the path, and did other
| damage in several places.
This condition was reported to the
policeman at the. ferry below, but the
rails have not yet been made secure.
Kill a Million, Take Taxi.
| Any one who commits crime on a
small scale is criminal indeed. The
only safe way to commit, say murder,
is to cause the death of about ten mil
. lion people and then take taxi to a
castle.
The small fry who carried out their
orders for frightfulness with military
precision are to be tried for crime,
while the big villain of the piece is
treated with awe and reverent consid-
Grafton OF course it may be said for
him that he is German, and as this
is the same as saying he is an imbecile,
that may be sufficient excuse to allow
him to escape all penalties.
The Germans stole hundreds of mil
lions from Belgium and France, Russia
and Rumania, but we are not to make
them give their loot back because there
are so many of them and so much to
restore. AS one of Dickens characters
remarks, "Some vague period of drow-
sy laughter must be given to the con-
sideratiOn of this proposition"
The first aeroplane service from
London to Paris will soon be inaugu-
rated. The cost of the trip will be SIS
one way. Verify case of "riches TAX
ing to themselves wings and flying
away" But remember the cost of a
letter when the post Office was first in
operation. You can easily foresee pas
senger transportation at reasonable
fare in the close future. We must now
learn to fly silently by night, as the
birds. The use of the telephone to the
flying machine recalls the picture of
some years ago wherein the unhappy
passenger on his way to business solilo-
quizes: "Confound that wireless! Ny
wife's been talking to me ever since 1
left the hOuSe!'
