TRIBUTE TO AN ARCHITECT.

Palisades local architect, Ernest
Sibley, who has just been honored by
being chosen, without competition, TO
plan a 100000 high school in the
aristoclatic town of Hempstead L. L.,
emphasizes the fact that it pays to be
a specialist. Mr. Sibley has devoted
his entire career to school architec-
ture and has to his credit many nO:a-
bic examples of his fitness in his cho-
sen profession. His success in New
Jersey, of course, has been greater
than in other states, but he has al
ready done considerable work in New
York.
In connection with Mr.. Sibley's
work it is of pleasing consequence to
note that the State Board of Educa-
ton holds him in high esteem and has
gone out of its way several times to
recommend him to various cOmmun>
ties that have appealed to it for de-
pendable talent in school architecture.
1t is, in fact, further to be mentioned
in this connection that while almost
all of Mr.. Sibley's work has been Of
fered him without competition, he has
never lost out once in competition.

AGAIN IN THE TOLLS.

The borough of Fort Lee is playing
in hard luck. Another lawsuit for
damages to GarrsOn's Crystal lake in
Englewood by sewer pollution has
been entered This time it is for only
$4,000, the value of 1000 tons of ice
the owner could not gather because
the Englewood Board of Health coulI
not pass the water of the lake Their
verdict settled Mr. Garrison's profit
Hence the suit
This is hard luck indeed That Le-
onia Heights sewer has been tough
proposition Started as an enterprise
to cost only $4,000, it has now gone
to $21S,000 or more, and the Lord
knows where it is going to stop. AS
usual, nobody is to blame, because it
couldn't be helped" If real bus
ness manager were in charge of the
bOroughs affairs such thing would
have been impossible as piling all
these excessive costs upon the tax
payers. But one of these days

THOSE WHO DO THE TALKING.

Those who do the talking have al
ways ruled the world. That is, their
influence has always been greatest in
the affairs of the human race, and
the human nature has not changed
In the early days the clergy did the
talking-the clergy and the retainers
of the throne which was generally the
same thing. And they ruled. Later
another set of takers came into exist
ence, namely, the lawyers. They were
the best takers, and they had the
main influence in the affairs of gov
eminent. Today we have something
that out-talks the lawyers, namely,
the newspapers-and so we have gov
eminent by the newspapers. 1t may
sound immodest to say so, but it is Il
fact, just the same, and it is natural
and therefore not bad thing.
That is not to say that the news
paper people themselves-not the edi-
tors or publishers or reporters upon
the paper-but the newspapers them
selves, they rule the world today, be-
cause they out-talk everybody else. Or
to put it another way, they are the
medium through which everyone has
to talk if he hopes to reach any con-
siderable number of people. How far
could any of our public men get today
if the newspapers did not carry their
words! What progress would Presi-
dent Wilson have made with the
League of Nations idea if the press
had not mentioned his name or his
ideas?
At most the speaker can be heard by
but few thousand people. The papers
speak to hundreds of thousands or to
millions in the same day. All thai
would be necessary to get rid of any
public manor any great man of the
world-wOuld be for the papers to
refuse to print his name or his re-
marks. The thing is mentioned simply
as a matter of interest and not because
there is any chance of such thing
coming about. The papers, indeed, are
every mans mouthpiece who has any
thing worth while to say, so it re-
solves itself into the fact that every
body with anything worth while to say
is ruling the world, through the press
That is why the world is safe, that is
why civilization is gong forward, that
is why we are not going to be plunged
into savagery because of the imprac-
ticable dreams of few Unbalanced
fanatics.

DRAWING DISTINCTIONS.

There are several points touched
upon in Mr.. Kelly's appeal for six
dollars dues to the Palisade Improve
ment Association that may with
propriety be touched upon with no in
tention of being unduly critical. 1t
is unfortunate that the appeal bears
upon it's face only one side of the
restrictions case. Citations are made
about WHAT the association has done,
but NOTHING is said about WHAT
1T HAS NOT DONE. For instance,
it mentions an action against woman
who has been making dresses in her
home in an unobjectionable way, but
says nothing of certain other viola
lions of restrictions in the commune
ty Does not Mr.. Kelly take note of
these things the while he boasts of
the close watch his association keeps
on the points he names? Because a
man chooses to make a little side of
flee for conducting his real estate
transactions in small garage on a
corner of his lot, his organization must
hold him up to contempt before the
community While swallowing other
things no less damaging to public
morals Mr. Richard, at whom the ar
ticle aims, is really doing something
to build up Palisade, and at this time
is constructing no less than six attrac-
tive homes, costing perhaps $4,000,
for the purpose of inducing other resi-
dents to come and view the attrac-
lions of Palisade and the inducement
it offers the homeseeker. 1t is poor
policy in any public undertaking to
make fish of one and fowl of another.
And while it is all very well to hold
up restrictions, there is such a thing as
going too far. And there is such
thing as being decently liberal. The
cost of a house and what is done in it
are sometimes of less account than
the character of people living in it.
But at that some very cheap skates
have been known to creep in under the
tent and live in restricted territory.
We are for restrictions up to a GER
tain point where they make a town
look foolish, and sometimes make it
ne better.

YORK PLANS TO UPLIFT TEN.
NESSEE MOUNTAINEERS.

Sergeant Alvin C. York-by the way,
he is now a colonel on the staff of
the governor of Tennessee-seems to
have a gift for doing the right thing
1t is announced that he will spend the
rest of his life working for the edu-
cation of the young men and women in
the mountain districts of Tennessee.
What more fitting and proper ambi-
ton for this modest hero, 1.-THE great
est hero of the world war;" who might
have spent the remainder of his days
in ease unknown to the rough noun
taineerS, his friends, relatives and
companions? He might have capital
lied his fame in vaudeville, in motion
pictures, on the lecture platform and
in other ways open to the self-seeker
in America, who turns popularity, no.
toriety or fame into dollars.
In way, Sergeant York will capt.
talize his war record, but it will be in
worthy cause. He proposes to es-
tablish a university and support it by
lecturing. Surely even the most cap
tious critic will find no fault with
this laudable desire.

TOWN STRIKERS.

A recent discussion in newspaper
editorial dealt with a familiar type
of man in every community. The
editor said: "Then there is the great
mass of honest, well-meaning, fairly
intelligent people who in public af-
fairs are simply shirks; who in lazy
fashion delegate responsibility to per-
sons whom they may not know, or
simply by reputation, and then do
nothing more except criticise in help
less indecisiOn." How all-embracing
this statement of the case is we all
know. 1t takes care of a larger ele-
ment than we suppose.
Anyone who has taken part in pub
lie affairs will easily recognize the
class. Any man who has, for instance.
served upon public committee, need
not be told further that there are a
great many shirkers in the commu-
nity-fOr upon a cOmmitte of dozen
men there are usually only two or
three who take care of the real work
of the committee. The people of this
village would be dumbfounded if they
knew how few men in the community
can be counted on further than max
ing a contribution or allowing the use
of their names when important civic
work is to be looked after.
This statement is no reflection upon
any one. The average man in every
community is a well-meaning fellow
and is in sympathy with public prog
ress But he likes his ease he wants
someone else to stand up in the front
ranks or carry the banners He is q
willing AYE" when proposition OF
merit is put before the assemblage OF
which he is a part. But according tC
the standard fixed by the editor-ant
it is sensible standard-your average
man is a Shirker

PALISADES RESTRICTIONS.

The appeal made by the Pai:sade
Improvement Association for member
ship fees CSC a Year, is in keeping
with that organizations aggressive
policies. Its latest effort is repro
duced in another column. 1t has.
adopted the easiest route to win over
a large membership by using stock
letter to each property owner, and
there is little doubt but that the very
eloquent appeal will win over large
and substantial membership. The let
ter cites concrete examples of what
the Improvement Association has
done in upholding restrictions, all OF
which proves conclusively that enter
prise of this sort is appreciated. One
wonders, however, why the community
house was not mentioned as one Of
the things the association ''shOoed
Off" This was perhaps the greatest
thing ever done for Palisade, and at
tention is drawn to this particular
piece of forgetfulness in order to let
it go in the record of useful things
done.

THE SOFTIES.

The navy cOurt-martial is doing its
duty in running down and Furnishing
the officers-happily, very few-who
disgraced their uniform by taking
brides. But what about the scoun-
drels who gave the bribes2 The court
martial cannot deal with them. Civil
prosecutors must take up their cases,
if they are to be taken up at all. The
names of many of the offenders are
perfectly well known. Some of them
belong, as it was stated before the
court-martial, to 1.-The moneyed class
es'' They must have had plenty of
money to pay anywhere from 500 to
$1,000 in order to get a soft" assign
ment for their precious sons. Their
action was, morally, even more con-
temptible than that of the bribe-taker.
Legally, there is no doubt that it is
punishable by fine or Imprisonment.
With the evidence ready to hand, it
ought to be easy for the public prose-
cutorS to move at once against these
despicable bribers. The publication of
their names has held them up to con-
tumely and, we hope, social ostracism
but that is not enough. They should,
in addition, feel the heavy hand of the
law.-New York Evening Post.

OSCAR THE INiMITABLE.

The black cigar and tilted hat of OS-
car HammerStein, both set at impoSSi-
BILE and defiant angles, were typical of
much within. No one could be a
parallel to those unquenchable and eX-
traordinary adventures in the world
of music. He was more than half
myth, let us agree. But it is of myths
and by myths that art and cities arise
and disappear.
No wonder the people took to Oscar
and performed wonders to make his
shot at the moon a financial success !!
1t is the way of institutions always to
run into fixed channels and become
stale and conservative and intleXible.
Perhaps Oscar Hammerstein with full
success might have become similarly
ossified But always failure-financial
failure, that is-dogged him like a
fate, tripping him into calamities fit
to sour and destroy score of inn
presariOS-but for Oscar merely the
needed flip to his glass of life, the
precise slap on the back calculated to
stir him to higher endeavors and
grander, newer experiments with the
public, with the muses. and with those
strange creatures of another world,
operate stars
A queer combination of tawdriness
and the highest art was the result.
The setting, the public forthputtings,
might be the cheapest. The music was
often, more often than not, at rare
ly high level The audiences helped
for one thing There was Jingle in
the air at the Manhattan that the So
Der, dignified Metropolitan seldom
achieved. Above all, there was sense
of experiment and adventure and new
ness and Zest. For better, for worse,
the show was Oscars own personality.
A pity that he was so soon choked
off by fate and wiser rivals. A pity
that the city knows no other adven-
turer in art his equal in courage and
will to shoot at the sky. We have
missed him and shall miss him. An
other such figure in opera and another
on the stage could do more for music
and the play than score of leagues
and all the armies of eXcellently in
tentioned critics.-New York Tribune

royal highness visit the far west. His
grandfather, Albert Edward, Prince of
Wales, afterwards King Edward VII,
visited the United States just before
the Civil War, and was a guest of
President Buchanan at the White
House. But he did not stay great
while, and hurried home on account of
the interest then centering in the
approaching war between the states.
That is, the excitement at that time
was so great it forecast the Civil War.
He spent several days in Richmond,
some time in the middle west, includ-
ing Cincinnati. The present prince
does not come incognitO as did his
grandfather The former chose one
of his lower titles in order to do away
with the necessity of parade and
official reception. OF course the PREF
ent prince will come with an introduce
ton to President Wilson, whom he
doubtless has already met, and this
will mean the usual formal ceremony
in receiving representatives of foreign
nations.
The young English prince is good
mixer, it is said. He is just twenty
five years old, said to be very tactful,
and is very popular all over the Brit
ish Isles. There can be little question
of his making "a favorable impression

SOLDIERS AND COLLEGE BOYS

gentleman who does a good deal
greatly impressed these past few
years by the orderliness of the soldiers
he has encountered on the trains and
in the cities about the camps and can
tonments of this country. He has seen
thousands of them, he says, in large
and small groups, and has witnessed
no rOwdyism, no disorder. He has
not been disturbed upon the trains by
them, no matter how jammed the
trains were with them. And he wants
to know why college boys cannot be
as well behaved as the soldiers.
LET bunch of college boys get
on a train," he says, ito go to another
town or city and they are noisy and
prankish and disturbing. They are
loud and boisterous and inconsiderate
of everybody on the train. But with
the soldiers it is different; they are
orderly and gentlemanly at all times,
and cOnsiderate of other travellers"
1t is little sermon that the col
lege boys ought to consider. Likewise
it is something for the college people
generally to think about. The gentle
man is not a common scold or
''grOuch" He has nothing against col
lege training generally. But he has
been impressed with the conduct of
the soldiers as contrasted with the
conduct of college boys, and perhaps
he is not alone in his observations.

ing such authors as Mary n. Murfree,
who wrote much and well of the very
stock from which York sprang; John
Fox, Jr., James Lane Allen and others,
cannot but admire their many quail
ties, while deploring the ignorance and
poverty in which they live.
York went abroad and caught a
vision on the battlefields. Before the
call to duty came, he had lived in the
mountains, shut off from the world,
knowing and caring little about its
affairs. He has contrasted the lot of
his people with the more favored
jewellers in cities and towns. He
wants to lift them up; to let them
share in his vision of greater things,

GLORY OF WORK.

No glory is so wonderful as that of
work. 1t is the greatest blessing God
ever gave to man. Until you have
learned to look upon your work not as
a curse, not as drudgery, not as d
treadmill which you are compelled to
turn every day, you cannot be really
happy. You are losing the best that
is in life. No honest work need be
drudgery, even if it be sweeping the
streets, making collars or painting IA
nous pictures. All art is nothing but
the doing of things in the best way
they can be done.
Each one of us can be an artist at
his or her work. All we need is to put
our whole heart, our whole souls, our
whole talent into doing it with our
greatest enthusiasm and care, the
greatest skill and the greatest efficien-
cy that we can command.
Until we can do this we can neither
be successful nor cOntented. Provi-
dence has ordained that in order to be
happy we must do the best and the
most that we are capable of.
Loafers, whether rich or poor, do
not know true happiness do not know
the sense of satisfaction which comes
to them from work we'll done and done
with a will.
Whether we find pleasure in our
work or whether we find it a bore, de-
ponds entirely upon our mental atti.
tude towards it, not upon the task it,
