RIDGEFIELD MARINE
STILL IN GERMANY.

Among the boys of Ridgefield who
are still in the service cover there" is
John Carmichael, who is lieutenant
of the Seventyfourth Company, Sixth
Regiment, marines, with the A. f. F.
and now in the army of occupation.
When Carmichael enlisted he stated
that he wouldn't stop until he reached
Germany, and he kept his statement
true. He is now at Hogenian, Ger
many, and in the best of health
He also writes that whenever Amer
lean troops enter the German people
become greatly excited and stare with
open mouths at the boys who made
the world a safer place to live in.
There is no doubt that the German
soldiers while retreating told these
peasants of the wonderful fighting abil-
tiles and courage of the doughboys and
devil dogs, to which Carmichael be-
longs.

No "Shinnrnee" Is
Allowed in Dance
Hall at Amt Park

A New York couple who came to the
Palisades Amusement Park one eve
ming last week took it for granted that
because they We're out in the country
and all dolled up they could do as they
pleased. They therefore took advan-
tage of the situation and INDUCED
themselves in very artistic rendering
of the now celebrated ''shimmee''
dance. The superintendent of the
dancing pavilion watched them for
quite little while, then quietly ap-
preached them and whispered that
that dance did not go out here. He
had his thanks for his pains, for after
waiting until the superintendent ap-
peared to be out of sight the handsome
couple begat themselves once more to
Their favOrite paStfme of diSpOrting
themselves in the "Shimmee" and were
the observed of all observers for quite
little spell until the superintendent
caught them. He did not stop to con-
slider their feelings a moment this time,
but, taking the man by the arm, quiet
ly led the couple from the floor and
escorted them to the park exit, telling
them not to again appear there until
they could learn to obey the common
rules of decency, to which sort the
park laid certain claim. Their pro-
tests did not avail them anything.

Two Lane Brothers,
John and Leonard,
Now Diamond D'lr's

Two Palisade boys, John and Leon
ard Lane, of Bluff road, have recently
gone into the business of importing
precious stones at 65 Nassau street.
New York. The Jeweller, a trade
paper, recently contained the follow
ing notice of the purchase of an old
firm by the Lane brothers:
During the past week negotiations
were completed whereby John Lane
and Leonard H. Lane became members
of the old firm of C. Cottier & Son,
importers of precious stones, 65 Mas
sau street. The firm, however, will
still continue to operate under the
same name and at the same address
Under the new management of John
Lane, who has been with the COttier
firm for II years, becomes president
and general manager. His brother
Leonard H. Lane, has been selected
as secretary and treasurer. Jeane
COttier, who has been conducting the
business for many years past, is still
a member of the firm, but in the flu
ture will be less active in it's conduct.
This firm is practically the only pre-
cious stone and lapidary house that has
stood for over half a century. The
business was founded in New York
and is in its Goth year and up to the
time the Lane brothers We're admitted
to the firm has been in the hands of
but two partners, Charles Cottier and
his son, J. G.. c. COttier. The first
quarters occupied by the business
were located on Dey street, from
which place Charles Cottier, the found
er, moved to Cortlandt street. From
1857 until 1898 the business was at
III Broadway, after which it moved
to IA Maiden Lane. Four years later
the concern moved again to 60 Mas
Sau street, where it has since been
located. John Lane, the new preSl-
dent, was only discharged from the
United States Army seven weeks
ago after serving II months over
seas with the Three Hundred and
Eighth Field Artillery. Jeane CottierI
left last week for a few weeks vaca-
ton which he will spend at Milford,
Pa.
The Palisade friends of the Messrs.
Lane, wish them every success i'll
their new venture.

Pallsade Man,
w. P. Steel, to Buy
Hydroplane to Use

w. 2. Steel, vice president of the
American Locomotive Works, who
lives in Abbott boulevard, Palisade,
was recently in Atlantic City. While
there he and Mrs Steel took a spin in
a hydroplane, and both he and his
wife at once became hydro-airplane
struck. In speaking of the trip Mr.
Steel said: at is a wonderful expert
ence. Mrs. Steel enjoyed it as much
as 1 did. And, say, just contidentially
we are going to have one of our own.
l have made up my mind I'd like to
try the sport. It's great. l believe
the airplane will come into common
use before a great while. I may be
flying over Palisade before any one
knows it. Maybe one of these days l
can land on the Fairgrounds. More
wonderful things have happened"
Mr.. Steel should be able to steady
any air plane. He stands 6 feet 61@
inches and tips the beam at $50
pounds.

Says King Will Win
By Frank Position
On All N. J. Issues

Z. 5. Atkinson of New Brunswick,
campaign manager for Warren c..
klng, candidate for the Republican
nomination for governor of New Jer-
sey, who, in 1916, was campaign man.
ager for United States Senator Joseph
5. Frelinghuysen in his successful con-
test at the primaries, this week made
the frank declaration that not only
was he convinced, by his canvass of
the entire state, that Mr.. King would
be the nominee of the Republican par
ty at the primary election on Septem-
Der %, but that he felt equally sure
that Mr.. King is the only Republican
candidate who can be successful at
the polls in November
Mr.. AtkinsOn's statement is as fol
lows:
after complete and thorough can
vass of every county in the state of
New Jersey, l have reached the con-
clusion, based on my past political
experience, that Warren G. King will
be the nominee of the Republican par
ty on Primary Day, September %.
''The conditions are not dissimilar to
those of the campaign in 1916, when
Mr.. Frelinghuysen, now United States
senator, gained rapidly the support of
the rank and file of the voters of the
state, by his outSpOken and courage
Gus statements of the issues of the
campaign, and emerged victorious
II am quite sure, in that campaign,
that had Mr.. Frelinghuysen not been
| nominated, the outcome of the general
election would have been different, and
l am equally sure that, in the present
campaign, Mr. King is the only candi-
date who, if nominated, can harmonic
the various elements in the party and
secure their united support.
For these reasons | declare that
Mr.. King is the man who can win for
the Republican party in November.
Il have had the opportunity in the
past several weeks of accompanying
Mr.. King on his campaign tour, that is
| I'd embrace the entire state and is to
continue right UP to Primary Day. Mr..
.i.3.4s, ss34.,.c, 'e"c'ysod into ~ "xtraor-
binary campaigner.
His itinerary frequently calls for
siXteen-hour day, and he has at
times covered from 300 to 400 miles
by automobile insa day.
HE has never shown himself re-
luctant, upon meeting either politi-
clans or voters opposed to his prin-
ciples or his candidacy, to meet the
issue squarely with them, and to tell
them exactly his position.
at is this attitude and the peoples
belief in the honesty and disinterested-
ness of the candidate that invariably
wins votes, and it is this, more than
any other factor that | feel sure will
result in his nomination and i'll his
election"

Car Weighs 1850
Pounds, Goes 1877
Miles Per Gal. Gas

Most people in PaliSade and the vi
entity know w. p. Steel and his great
Crane roadster, said to be one of the
coStlieSt cars ever built in America
1t is a three passenger car, fitted Spe
cially for Mr.. Steels large stature, and
is one of the most attractive designs
ever turned out of factory. 1t was
built with two others of the same pat
tern at the Crane factory in BayOnne
in 1913 for the Alec Company, but the
design was never put on the market,
presumably on account of the excess
Sive cost. Mr.. Steel was enabled as
vice president of the American Loco
motive Works to get one of the cars
that is, the chassis and engine, six
cylinder In its earlier days the car
has been driven by Mr.. Steel up to rs
miles an hour, and some of his all day
runs would put any average machine
up to its limit to equal its work. On
one occasion Mr.. Steel drove to Bur-
lington, VT, 327 miles, between suns
in even II hours, and did not exert
himself any. He has also made Bos-
ton in Il day, and one day last week
went down to Atlantic City and tried
it out on an efficiency test Going
down, he made 1871 miles per gallon
of gasoline, and returning got 1872
miles per gallon.
Mr.. Steel says he does not believe
there is another car in America that
can approach this record, considering
that it weighs ION the hOof'' 1850
pounds. 1T is more efficient today"
said Mr.. Steel, than it has ever been.
| have driven it twice to Chicago and
back. 1t has never failed me, never
gone wrong. never broke down, never
been in an accident and never fails to
attract crowd wherever it stands in
Chicago, New York or elsewhere. 1t
has a wheel base of 100 inches and
rides like an airplane. 1t is only IS
registered horsepower, but has deliv-
cred rs at 1000 revolutions. 1t was
one of the first of the high speed eff
cheney types
Mr.. Steel says he has never used
on the car but water for

Warren G. King Hits
At Assernbly1nan for
Criticising Speech

Warren c. King, candidate for the
Republican nomination for governor,
who addressed the Bergen County Re-
publican Committee on July g. today
answered the address of Assemblyman
w. Irving Glover, who spoke in de-
Tense of the Board of Public Utility
commissioners after Mr.. King had left
the meeting. Mr.. King said:
"My attention has been called to the
fact that the statement has been made
that had | known that Andrew J. Gaul,
Jr., Bergen cOunty's representative on
the Board of Public Utility Commits
sioners, was present during my address
before the county committee l proba-
bly, would not have criticised the
board. | am very glad indeed to know
that Mr.. Gaul was present, although
did not know at the time 1 only wish
that all of the members of the board
might have been present. 1 stand alb
solutely on what 1 said, and l should
very much like to know Just at this
time why the hearing into the increas.
ed rate schedule demanded by the Pub
lie Service Gas Company has been adj
journed until September II, date toe
late to render a decision before the
coming primaries. / am curious to
know when the board expects to rem.
der decision in the matter of the sur
charge granted promptly by it to the
Public Service Corporation for a wal
emergency for the supplying of cleo.
trio power and now clearly unneces.
sary.
II am perfectly content to leave it to
the public as to the political signifi.
canoe of this adjournment, Can 1T be
possible that the Board of Public Utili.
ty Commissioners is waiting to see
who the nominee will be at the Repub.
lican primaries? Mr.. Glover's address
before the county committee is inter.
esting for the ignorance it displayed
of state affairs. He spoke of my de.
mand that the state highways be prop.
is already in hand by the State High
way Commission. This is the whole
trouble. There are too many plans in
hand and too little being dGne. Tie
highways of the state should be pa.
trolled now both in the interests OF
maintenance and in the interests of
protection for the rural districts.
81 have no quarrel with Mr.. Glover
because, for political reasons, he is
supporting another candidate That is
his privilege. I believe the members
of the Bergen County Republican Com
mittee are open minded and that they
are not ready to commit themselves to
defense of the Public Service CorpO-
ration and of the interests which pro.
tect it and which action and the failure
to meet the situation on the part of the
nominee for the governorship will lead
to disaster for the party"

resolutions? therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the Mayor and
Council of the Borough of Cliffside
Park, respectfully say:
81. That Mr. O'Toole and the
Public Service Corporation know, or
ought to know, that the only way in
which the governing body of a mu-
nicipality can express its sentiments
properly is by resolution.
SO AS to why not prudence in
stead of politics?' that Mr. O'Toole
and the Public Service Corporation
know or ought to know that politics
in its highest and noblest sense
means the science of government and
that in the adoption of our resolution
above referred to, we were perform
ing our political duties with prudence.
- That as to the increase in our
tax rate, Mr.. O'Toole and the Public
Service Corporation know or ought
to know, that a very large percentage
of the amount to be raised by taxa
ton in our borough is arbitrarily fixed
by county and state authority over
which this Board has absolutely no
control: and that also a large amount
to be raised by taxation each year for
school purposes is regulated through
the Board of Education by submitting
it to direct vote of the people"
One of the concluding questions
intimates that the increase in the
trolley fare is due to the large salaries
paid to officials of the Public Service
Corporation.
