cLIFFslDE HIGH
FOOTBALL GAME.


The local high school eleven lost
again on last Saturday, when they
Travelled to Rutherford. The high
school of that town scored 81 points
to Cliffside's 0.
This game was not a case of Cliff
sides team being lighter, but the Ruth
erford boys were there with the speed.
Although beaten, the Cliffside cap
tain, Arthur Scdllion, certainly was
the star of the game. He outclassed
Dixon, the opponents fullback, in ev-
cry way.
Cerneck didn't get away with any
forwards that resulted in goals, al
though SculliOn threw quite few of
them. One that he caught and was
off for a goal when the whistle blew
and it was said Cliffside was off side.
The entire Crimson and Black back
field played gamely. In the last quar-
ter they did good line plunging.
Stein at one stage of the game saved
the local boys from having six more
points made on them when he inter-
cepted Rutherford forward pass and
ran IL yards with it.
Capt. Arthur SculliOn surely should
be able to get the fullbackship of the
northern New Jersey all-star team, if
not the state all-star team. He GER
tainly has outshOne all opponents this
year.

a SILENT NAVAL VICTORY.

The 80 units of the great German
navy feet surrendering to the allies
in British waters on Thursday was
the curtain in the great war tragedy
that has virtually come to an end.
What a magnificent spectacle it must
have been! What great naval pag-
cant that commentaries the deliver
ance of the world from the thraldom
of the Hun! With what renewed evil
dence does this spectacular event en-
phasize the misdirected greatness OF
Germany? Negligible in defeat She
merely misguided her energies and
her talent If she had unselfishly con-
centrated her power in uplifting her
standards of kultur beyond the greed
of possession, what wonders could
she not have performed. The whole
downfall of Germany is the exempli.
fication of the man having knowledge
without understanding. And in this
connection it is well to say here that
the British navy without firing shot
was the power that gripped at the
throat of Germany and finally throt-
tied her-took her very life at the
last, a fate her low moral status de-
served, big as she was.

PRESIDENT AT THEsPEAcE TABLE

The determination of President Will
son to attend the opening of the Yer
sailles peace council has stirred up a
great deal of criticism. Many promi-
nent newspaper editors have openly
opposed the desire of the President
leaving the country at this trying hour
and have not hesitated to say so. They
look upon it as hazardous undertake
ing and one not warranted by the Oc-
casion. They all seem to think that
equal results could be accomplished by
staying at home in Washington. Evil
IDENTIFY the President does not consider
these objections as valid. He thinks,
and no doubt justly, that he can do
more face to face with the members of
the council than through the medium
of the cable. Whatever he thinks, Mr..
Wilson generally does. If he sees a
reason for going out of the country
during his term of Office he must be
reasonably sure that it will result in
direct good or he would not consider
going. He may not be fatalist, but
he is doing in this instance just what
his own impulses direct He will I'M
doubtedly have Europe at his feet
when he lands on English soil, and the
honor the people there will bestOw
upon him will acclaim him throughout
the world. 1t will be great and his
tOrical event when the President of
the United States of America is bold
enough to help promulgate so immor-
tai document as the peace terms of
this unparalleled World War through
the medium of his own personality az
the peace table.

CLIFFSIDE VERSUS
LEoNIA TODAY.

Cliffside plays Leonia today at Leo
mia. All those with any red blood
should see this game as Leonia is one
of Cliffside's most formidable foes, and
since Coach Burns warriors are out
for their letters they will put up a
cOrking game.
In recent interview with Captain
SculliOn of the local high school team
it was stated by the captain that he
would have the strongest aggregation
the Crimson and Black could produce
to bring home the bacon from Leonia.
One of the big assets to the fighting
spirit of Coach Burns Tigers is the
representation of almost every nation
atty on the team.
The line is composed of son from
each of the following countries: Po-
land, England, Germany, Scotland,
Russia, France and Italy. The back
field consists entirely of burly Irish
men. FOOTBALL EDITOR.

AMERICAN GOVERNOR
IN GERMANY.


While it might be superfluOus at this
time to intimate that American Occupa-
ton of German provinces could teach
the people of that land Of kultur any
thing, at the same time, having Ameri-
can governors in charge of and direct
ing public affairs will be novel ex-
perience for Germany. 1t will open
the door of opportunity to the local
authorities, who, while they will no
doubt, resent the intrusion, may pick
up few pointers worth while to
treasure as mementOs of American
occupation. Then, too, the Germans
may teach the Americans a few things
of value The results of the novel ex-
pertinent must be awaited with anx-
ious interest At least one valuable
lesson may be learned by one of the
two sides interested. Germans will
see the true heart of America as evil
denced in our men under arms They
are all examples of the real feeling
they left at home. They may exult,
but they will be- generous and kind.
But Germany will see in our soldiers
that great illumined virtue, humility,
that has led nation into the light OF
achievement and Christian worth, the
essence of which led it into this last
enduring victory for world peace and
an undying democracy.

JOHN A. LIE CATO.

In the death of John A. LIE Cato the
community of Palisade loses citizen
of the highest type of representative
manhood. He had climbed up the
highway of life with fixed purpose and
high standards. Not yet even at it's
meridian, he had yet advanced to a
measure of achievement far beyond
the average. Measured by his per-
formances in the business world, he
had gradually enlarged his scope until
he had attained an eminence in his
particular line of endeavOr beyond the
everyday success. He was at the top.
His particularly strong executive abil-
tiles marked him as shining light
among his associates He had builded
vnon broad lines and by clean methods
and living left greater legacy than
mere wealth-a good name. Peace to
his soul,

bears out the statement that the peo-
pie are done with Kaiserism and all
forms of autocracy. They worshipped
at the shrine of kings too long and
now must repay the world all the in
calculable damage they have done in

HOW DEATH WAS CAUSED.

We were beginning to believe that
the 'fiuey" was the only cause of
death in our fair land, but the editor
of a monthly bulletin of vital statistics
finds the following in reports of causes
of death sent to him:
"Died suddenly, nothing serious"
went to bed feeling well, but woke
up dead"
Patient should not have died as he
fully recovered from his sickness"
1.-THE cause of death was his mother
died in infancy"
"Don't know cause of death. He
died without the aid of physician"
kicked by horse shod on left kid
ney."
"Died from blow on the head with
ak. Contributory cause was another
mans wife"
Deceased died from blood poison
ing caused by broken ankle when an
automobile struck him between the
lamp and the radiator. Cincinnati

EHHHHH
AT THE PEACE TABLE.

The solution of the peace problems
at the end of the war that has over
turned the world is a gigantic task.
In a general way the direction of the
peace council has already been stated.
Germany kept prodding her opponents
during the last year and a half OF the
great struggle for an expression OF
their war aims. First England essay
ed to answer the demand through
speeches by Lloyd George. But Lloyd
George was indefinite and general
rather than specific. France had little
to say, except that she was out to win
the war on just policies. Then last
January President Wilson in behalf or
America presented his Fourteen Points
of Peace deliverance. These were &C
cepted in the main as just terms Of
peace by all the other allies. There
was no objection to any of the fourteen
points covered by Mr.. Wilson at that
time.
But latterly the question has been
raised that Mr.. Wilson was more or
less vague in some directions, at least
on the Freedom of the Seas clause.
Then the charge was made just before
the recent election that it meant free
trade. which Mr. Wilson explained
away.
Now the thing uppermOst in the
world-mind is the practical application
of President Wilson's peace terms. At
the council table 1t will require very
level-headed men to place a proper
construction upon the final draft that
will put the completed treaty of peace
before the world in perfect, just shape.
Fortunately these difficulties are tech
meal more or less, but the greatest
care is to be maintained so that the
wonderful document may shine along
the pathway of civilization as an illu-
minating sun for pOsterity and not
merely as q Won Bethmann-HOllweg
scrap of paper.
That President Wilson will give a
proper and an acceptable intrepreta-
tion OF the peace terms is now to be
anticipated as fact, whether he goes
to the conference or not Whatever is
to come of the great gathering of the
worlds largest minds in statecraft, the
final document is to be the most mem
Orable ever recorded in the annals Of
time, not excepting our own Declara-
ton of Independence, which has re-
manned to enlighten and guide the
world for full century and a half and
which will be world guiding force
two thousand years hence.

VILLAGE GOSSIP

Paul Brady has determined to stay
out his course in aviation at Princeton
and get his commission instead of leav-
ing, as he has a chance to do.
We'll, was there ever buster place
than the Palisade Supply Market?
William Beckmann is certainly q
wheel horse in maintaining such a
business.
The whole hilltop section is pouring
out heartfelt sympathy over the heroic
and tragic death of Lieut.. Alan Mutt
of GrantwOod. The story of how he
met his death is told on the front page
of the Palisadian today. His sacrifice
was supreme.
Marie and Helen Anderson will be
home for Thanksgiving.
Mrs. William HI. Jackson and her
son Junior have come on East from San
Francisco, where they have been living
since leaving Palisade, over a year
ago. Junior has grown about five
inches taller and is much heavier, and
now wears long trousers. Junior was
visiting friends in Palisade last Sun
day. He is much improved and Is
looking fine. But for the fact that
they have rented their home the Jack
sons would move again to Palisade.
Lets get a bell and ring it every
night, and pray that Bluff road will
not be ruined by the state by being
turned into a public highway.
First Lieut.. George H. Frew, now in
France, has been advanced in his army

had not been declared.
Randolph Brown came up from his
camp training school to attend the

mother of lovely girl baby that ar
rived last week. Her husband, who is
in the railway service in France, ca
bled his congratulations with flowers.
Mrs. Peters is a double niece of Mr.

Everybody is speaking of the great
! feeling in the meeting last Sunday at
the Palisade Church. 1t was great Oc-
