SAD CASE OF HACKENSACK PASTOR
Who DISAPPEARED LAST WEEK UNDER
ACL0UD, HAVING MADE CONFESSION

The Hackensack newspapers for sew.
eral days early this week and one day
of last week have mentioned the
strange case of Rev. Charles A. Bar.
wise, for the past four years pastor
of Cavalry Baptist Church, and who
suddenly disappeared from his home
and church work
While the church officials do not
care to discuss the unfortunate affair,
it is stated that complaints of three
or four boys led to the pastors deci-
sion to resign and leave. 1t was said
that the Prosecutors office had been
notified of the case.
His resignation had been read and
accepted by the church trustees One
statement was to the effect that a mes
sage had been received from him in
which he said he was wandering
around aimlessly and greatly de-
pressed.
The Palisadian undertook to find out
the facts connected with the case but
the inquiries proceeded with much diff
ficulty. About a year ago another
in plight with certain members of a
boys club he was fostering in the
church, and the testimony was so
straight as presented by the boys that
he was forced to quit his charge. 1t
is said that the present case is exact
ly similar in many respects. Rev.
Barwise had many friends and was I'M
usually popular and successful in his
administration of the church's af-
fairs. He has most estimable wife
and children and they have gone with
some of her people, brothers, on Long
! Island
1t was said that Mrs. Barwise had
received two or three letters from her
husband since he left town hurriedly,
4 and that he had confessed everything
Ito her before leaying, but II was safd
that Mrs Barwise first learned from
the Evening Record the real cause of
the pastors trouble.
Mr.. Barwise was reported to be
somewhere near Buffalo.
OF course, the case created mild
sensation in Hackensack, but the ac-
ton of the church officials in with
drawing the case from the courts is
considered the best thing for all con-
cerned The pastor will not be per-
mitted to continue in the ministry.

Strange Fate of Two
Brothers Killed Sat.

Two brothers, John and Henry w.
Switar, of Pine Grove, N j., aged

z0NINC SYSTEM IN CL|FFS|DE PARK
WILL NOT bar APARTMENT B'LDCS;
MAKES REAL ESTATE COMMODITY

Monday evenings meeting of the
Cliffside Citizens Club in Masonic
Temple, Grantwood, was well at
tended. Interest was centered in the
report of the joint Citizens Club
Womans Club Committee on it's in
vestigation of the schools of the Dor
ough and their administration. The
report was read by George N. N.
Venables. The women members, Mrs.
George J. Dickinson and Mrs. Gerald
Thayer were present.
The report was in effect an answer
to the doubters of the community as
to the efficiency and economical man.
agement of the bOrough's school sys-
tenn, and the verdict was in favor of
the fact that the people, on the in
vitation of the School Board, vote in
March on the appropriation sub
united to them, and afterwards raise
an objection to the expenditures, was
great joke. The report recon-
mended that to obviate this a mass
meeting of citizens be held each spring
before the ScnOOl election, anu TIE
question of the appropriation dis
cussed beforehand. The general at
titude of the teaching force was that
the system was fortunate in having
such an able man as Superintendent
Drum at it's head.
The report, a lengthy one, re-
ceived unstinted praise from many
persons present, summed up in few
words by President G. B. Hearn in his
usual lucid style: "The report throws
a clear light on the entire situation
and is filled with information for the
benefit of the taxpayers. 1t shows the
school administration to be quite de-
serving of our support
On motion of Wallace Mcdonald it
was voted that the Executive Com
sfll4slI be authorized to have the re
port on the schools published in PAM
phlet form for distribution to all those
interested.

DR.. Hemphill was on his way to the
meeting of the session when he was
overtaken by Mr.. Jordan, both rid
