 The remarkable thing about the Roamer is the small number of repairs which have been made on it during all this rough usage.

During all these ad-

venturous months. the car has been in two smashups which required two new front springs, and due to the excessive load carried in the rear new springs have been put in there.
 During the life Of the car Lemons has worn out 16 sets of cord tires and is now on his nth set. He gets from 1000 to 5000 miles a set out of his tires all depending <on how bad the roads are.
 Practically all of the travelling Lem ons does is over the worst kind of roads magineable. He seldom sees a paved highway and mostly he is pumping over rocky mountain trails.

Rats Eat Flowers
Of Palisade Church

An odd sort of thing occurred to the
flowers for the Palisade Church last
week. They were brought on Saturday
night to the home of the member who
renders this service each Sunday and
placed in the cellar in a pail of water
as usual. Imagine his chagrin on Sun
day morning to find that the large
majority of the handsome chrysanthe-
NUNS obtained fresh from the hot
houses of Hoebel, the Fort Lee florist,
were missing, the flowers having dis
appeared. The stalk alone was left,
and there was little or nothing visible
of the petals. A little thought over the
matter brought the conclusion that
rats had done the work of demolition
and inquiry developed that this theory
was the correct one. SO far as can be
found OUT rats are not inclined to eat
any other flower except the chrysan
themum, and they do not bother with
this except in storage. So this famous
Japanese product of the floral kingdom
appeals to the rodent family on the
basis of taste to the palate instead Of
taste to the eye.

Although organized but a year ago,
the Multi Secundus Society has been
success from the outset. Its purpose
is to promote friendship among the
young people, and from the enthusiast
tic and well attended meetings of the
society it is evident that its purpose is
being fulfilled.

Big Tax Sale to Be
Held December Ii

Thereiwill be an interesting tax sale
at Schlossers Hall, Fort Lee, December
II at 2 p. m. There are some 113 par
GELS of land in the borough to be sold
subject TO redemption, including some
thing like 73 or more in Palisade, and
dozen or more bearing names that
are linked with Palisade in some way,
such as the Anderson Avenue Realty
Company, of which E. H. Ryan and his
daughter are the main owners. These
parcels have unpaid taxes accumulated
against them of some thing like $4,000,
those in Palisade footing up about $5,-
35S, in round numbers. Most of this
property is desirable and will no doubt
be redeemed in due course. The largest
accumulated tax is against the Hudson
River Realty Company, 9 2-10 acres in
block 81, the tax being $1,15S16. This
is one Of the things that causes the
borough to borrow, the land being good
for the loan, of course. A man buy
ing property of this kind can use it
fer all purposes, except building, but
is allowed to charge no higher than
per cent for the holding of it. AS a
matter of fact, the law makes a man
owning property in New Jersey COM
paratively safe, so far as losing it is
concerned, for unpaid taxes.

Cliffside Five
Defeats Fort Lee

The local High Schools basketball
team met and decisively defeated Fort
Lees five in the Cliffside Gymnasium
last Friday evening by the score of 40
to 5.
All in all the evenings set-to proved
a fine but not strenuous practice for
the Crimson and Black boys. The
Cliffside defense proved superb, and
their offense was in the same class.
Captain McCloskey played his usual
brilliant floor game and contributed
several baskets to the Cliffside score.
Martens, at guard, also accounted for
quite number of field goals, while
Houk, from the fifteen foot mark, shot
fouls in his usual fine form. Berrelli
and Macdonald gave their usual bril-
liant work, and Kirmayer jumped fine
at the pivot.
Fort Lees only basket was made
by Casey, one of their substitutes in
the last few minutes of play. Moske-
vitz made their other three points
from the foul line.

SENDING OFFENDERS TO PRISON

The federal prohibition law assert
ed itself this week in no uncertain
manner Thirteen saloon keepers,
mostly from Newark, three from En-
glewood, were tried for violation of
the prohibition statute, found guilty
and fined the sum of about $1,000, and
a number of them got terms in the
penitentiary of three months and a
fine. This is the first time since pro-
hibition went into effect that any dras-
tic measures have been taken. The
judge who tried these cases an
nounced that the law was to be en-
forced in future to the fullest extent,
and these sentences imposed were
light compared with what second of
Tenders will get. 1t is to be hoped
that some of the guilty ones of this
section will now be induced to shut
up shop and behave themselves, for
they are doomed to similar treatment
If they persist in violating the law.
