accomplished in the world, and if our
great men quit when they encounter

would not lie along the road of great

honor that will accrue to you for
your accomplishing what many
others will regret not having tried.
Many a candidate will have strong
feeling Of regret at not having tried
for one OF these magnificent automo-

the word and you will never have
cause to berate yourself for having
passed up one of the greatest oppor-

are worthy of their help and that
quitting is not one of your character

the divine spark of love of nature; it
oozes out of him as ink from 1910
model of a Watermans. He speaks as
he feels. Poetical-the sunset awed
and inspired him, as it did any one
who saw it. But Mr., Logan was the
only one who had the courage to write
it up as he felt. 1t takes courage and
nerve to describe a sunset with it's he

any one who reads his articles must

BARN DANCE OF
ST. JOHNS LYCEUM
A BIG SUCCESS

The second annual barn dance held
at st. Johns Hall on Friday evening
under the auspices of the ST. Johns
Lyceum Club of Cliffside was sue
cess far superior to any dance in the
history of the club There were about
500 people attending the affair, each
and every one spending a very enjoy
able evening, the entertaining consist
ing of numerous novel features. With
the hall Splendidly arrayed with corn
stalks, hay, farm implements, old har-
ness, combined with the constant
cackling of chickens, quacking of
ducks and squealing of pigs it had
every appearance of an old time coun-
try barn. Nearly everyone was
dressed in country style, the majority
of the girls wearing the dress of a
dairmaid, consisting of neatly ironed
and attractively colOred aprons and
sun bonnets. while in their hands they
carried milk pals. all the maids being
very becoming and attractive in their
costumes. The men wore the outfit of
a farmer. Eddie Brady and Joe Ro-
wan, both acting as judges for the oc-
casion, were kept busy handling the
cases which were brought before them
by the always active cOnstableS, who
arrested all those stealing the fruit
that was strung on wires from the
ceiling. Those that could not or would
not pay the small fine imposed upon
them We're committed to Jail until some
of their friends came to their rescue
and contributed the necessary amount.
One of the novel and amusing fea-
lures was Il marriage bureau, which
was in great demand the entire eve
ming, the clergyman being Tommy
Thompson, who was constantly en-
gagged marrying the young folks. Some
girls had at least 20 rings in their
possession at the end of the evening,
Miss Sarah McKenna winning the prize
for having the most husbands. Every
one present was kept in good spirits
all through the evening by the strains
of the village band, led by Rube Cru
CHI. An exhibition dance was given
by two of Bergen county's most popu-
lar boys, II. McGOwan and Jimmy Pie
dro, who exhibited the "tiatfOot' waltz
and twO-step with their partners.
A few chickens and ducks, also a
pig, were raflied off during the eve
ming, the pig being won by William
Hovac of Edgewater. The Committee
on Refreshments We're Mrs. Rose
Thompson, Mrs. j. +. Ostermann, Mrs.
Dunn and Miss Anna Bauman of the
Rosary Society, whose hard work
helped to make the affair successful.
The Arrangement Committee were
Messrs. Frank AlvinO, James Rtnan,
Thomas Thompson, William Killlick
and Edward Ostermann. Frank Favre.
president of the club. stated the sue
cess of this dance was due to the hard
work and strenuous efforts of tlfa~SSm-
mittee, along with the assistance of
the Rosary Society and the cO-Opera
tion of the parishiOnerS. The people
came as far as from New York city,
Brooklyn, Fort Lee, Union Hill and
many other outside towns, also many
prominent men of the borough being
present. The ST. Johns Church will
receive half the proceeds while the
other half will be added to the treas

GUM TAKES PLACE OF WATER
Assuages Thirst Of Soldiers Fighting
in Country Where Liquid Was
Practically Unobtainable.

OF all the varied means of masti-
resorted to by man in all climes and
ages the great American gum seems
least harmful and most helpful. That
there is Il physiological demand for
some masticatOry Stimulant, says the
New York Medical journal, is shown
by the universally of the practice of
chewing. Whether it be the tobacco of
the American Indian, the betel nut of
the East, the slippery elm bark. the
tamarack and the spruce gum of the
down-eaSt Yankee, the sweet gum of
the Gulf states. the chicle of the Mexi-
cans, which. in its American adapta-
tlon. becomes the great American
chewing gum. man has always felt the
necessity of chewing something more
than his meals. That there is a prac-
tically useful side for this habit is
evidenced by the orders placed by the
quartermaster of the United States
army for 2,30000O packages of this
; standard American dainty. We learn
from the war department that the
commanding officer of field artillery
regiment, about to embark. stated that
$50 pounds of chewing gum would
take the place of hundreds of gallons
of drinking water when water was
most needed and least readily obtain
able. The American Red Cross re-
Gently cabled an order for chewing
gum for use in the reconquered ter
ritory where the wells had been pois-
oned by the retreating Germans.
