WALTER E. GILLIAN.

i Captain Walter e. Gillian of Flush
est, September f. He was long time
| personal friend of the editor Of this
newspaper and was one of the most
perfect types of physical and mora
manhood ever known anywhere. A
marvel of muscular strength, he was
an Apollo in stature, yet as gentle as
child and as lovable. He entered
| the Plattsburg camp early after the
declaration of war, where his pro-
| ficiency and natural tendency for sol
dierly adaptability soon won him the
highest ecomiums. He was every inch
a man and every inch soldier. He
won much admiration at Plattsburg
and was honored Immediately with a
captains commission of cavalry This
was subsequently changed to a ma
chine gun commission as captain, and
he went over after course in camp
training, with every man loving and
hOnOring him.
When he first arrived in France
General Haig watched him handle his
company in drill one day by chance
and paid him a distinguished compli-
ment on his ability and bearing as a
soldier. Getting finally into action,
his fortunes led him at last into the
thick of the fighting at the front,
where his unit was conspicuous in
many furious charges and quick ac-
ton engagements. On the night of
September 4, his company, in connec-
ton with two other company units of a
battalion, was ordered to charge a
German stronghold at 10 o'clock. The
judgment of the other company cap
tains was against the expediency of
the order and appealed to Captain Gill
lam. With characteristic valor, he re-
piled, Gentlemen, it is ORDERS
AS the Company took the command
to go over the top, the Germans no
doubt having the range let loose a
cannonading, and Captain Gillams
company had scarcely started forward
before huge shell dropped right at
their side. "Drop!" shouted the lieu
tenant. All hands fell flat just as the
shell exploded, and no one was in
jured. Almost at once another shell
fell in the same spot, proving the Ger
mans had their range. The shell ex-
ploded as it struck, and seventeen
men were killed Captain Gillian hav-
ing his right leg almost torn off at the
thigh, besides being nearly disembow-
eled and joint shot off of the two
smaller fingers of his left hand. When
his comrades picked him up, he was
on his face, conscious. They went to
examine his leg. "Never mind that"
he said, "look at my stomach" They
placed him in an ambulance as soon as
possible, but he died on the way to
the base hospital, conscious eveFy min
ute of the half hour he lived following
his injuries. Just before he passed
away, he whispered to his companion,
'Boys, am going. Things are grow
ing black. Tell my mother / was
thinking of her." Then in an instant
he was dead, as true a hero as God
ever let live or allowed to die.

HELP THE LIBRARY.

The effort of the women of Cliffside
Park Borough to secure a municipal
library is commendable. They have
gotten the movement in such shape
as to get the issue on the ballot at the
election next Tuesday. This work is
renewed indication that Cliffside is
one of the most progressive boroughs
in Bergen Whatever she undertakes
is generally carried through, as wit
ness the excellent school system and
the beautiful highways throughout the
borough. Nothing would top off the
long list of public enterprises started
within recent years like handsome

FACTS FOR cLIFFsIDE VOTERS

Consider first the character of the
work and duties the candidates must
undertake when elected to office.
Then their fitness, willingness, and
their available time to fulfill the du-
ties required of them.
You are asked to consider five men
in the coming election. In the order
of their service let us review them.
Mr.. ]. ]. COIN has served you three
years, the majority of which time he
was chairman of the Finance Com
mittee. Seventy-six thousand dollars
debt is part of his record An en-
ployee that had handled your private
affairs in this wise you would not re-
appoint AS you would conduct your
private affairs SO you should wish your
public ones handled. Therefore Mr..
Cohn does not seem to be the logical
man.
Second in order is Mr.. ]. d. Ma
guire, now Democratic committeeman
and school trustee. Why, If you are
satisfied with his record, pile any
more burdens on one mans shoulders?
Let well enough alone and allow him
to devote his time to the duties he is
now engaged in. He can't do three
mems work as well as one or two I;
therefore he must neglect some of
them. Why should you force him to
be poorer public servant by electing
him to an additional Office with a
greater demand on his time and eff
fort? He must need earn his living
and that of those who are Immediately
dependent upon him. This he can't
neglect--if any, it must be his public
duties. BY not selecting Mr.. Mcguire
you confer lasting benefit on him
and the community.
Third on the list is Mr.. Joseph
Ammon. In the language of the poet
we suggest, mark, read and inwardly
digest" Then decide.
Fourth and last we have as indie
pendent candidates two business men
of long residence in the borough-Mr.
H. l.. Post and Mr.. j. A. Mileham.
Both of these men are at the heads OF
their own concerns, are experienced
in the requirements for public officials.
They should appeal to you because
they fulfill all of your three require
ments-ftness, willingness and time
for public service. Their fitness is
emphasized by the fact of their being
taxpayers and successful business
men, citizens Of long residence in the
community, and hold no other offices
or positions of trust in the borough.
They come before the people of their
own volition as independent candi-
dates, responsible only to the public
at large Their time for public service
is guaranteed because of their both
conducting their own business ven
lures and, therefore, have at their re-
spective commands the privilege of
arranging their time to enable them to
serve the public interest.
Then why not vote for Post and
Mlleham as your choice for council
men?

When the President

addressed his three famous questions
to Germany, our ears were assailed by
the protests of Senator Lodge and 9th
err Republican leaders. They were not
content to support the President" by
keeping still until he had Unanswered
Germany into position for the knock
out that followed. They scented par
ty advantage-the opportunity to ''put

Lots of excitement in GrantwOod

think they have fine chance to win.

Randolph Brown has filed out Won
derfully in training and is now a very
husky chap indeed, and the girls, they
think him awfully nice, especially in
that sailor uniform with the bright red
bars on the sleeve.
No very recent word from Lieut..
Paul Berkey, but he is there some
where in the thick of things, being a
loyal American soldier.
Last Friday and Saturday nights in
this section were wonderful nights as
nights go. The moon, almost full the
first@night, shone with marvellous bril-
liancy all the night through and was
just sinking to rest after making a
night of it, around six or little after,
when people were just getting out for
the early morning boats. AS one man
put it, when l walked up, there was
the moon looking in on me through my
west window as much as to say, Get
right out of this, old man, if you want
to catch that boat" Saturday night
was even more wonderful, the moon
being brilliant to the last degree. Not
a cloud was visible either night. John
Boroughs, the naturalist, always says
that such nights always presage a
storm in the near future.
The young fellow we quoted in this
column last week as saying the war
would not end now because the Ger
mans would not accept Wilson's terms,
now says he did not say that He
claims to have said Cor meant) that
Germany would have to be whipped
and forced to take Wilson's terms. He
was told that if he insisted that that
was what he said, an explanation and
an apology would be made. Both are
hereby given-that is, if he meant
what he said, either time.
Margaret Binner has been brought

is sky high. Fourteen he counts now.
