VILLAGE GOSSIP

"A certain young lady highly esteemed
by The Palisadian has called our at
tention to the fact that mention was
not made of the splendid game of base
ball played by young Mr. Hollinbeck,
who played as catcher for the married
men July 5. Well, to tell the truth,
Mr.. Hollinbeck's name was omitted be-
cause the score card was lost. Any
how he put up one of the best games
behind the bat ever seen in Palisade,
and he, no doubt, was spurred on by
the very sweet smiles of this young
lady in particular, and she's enough to
make any young man play his head off.
Little Virginia Flack is one of the
sweetest and brightest children of the
village. For one of her age she is
wonderfully alert and really clever.
She loves flowers and every form of
nature. The bugs are her delight, and
the butterfly that lit upon her the other
day made her believe in fairies more
than she ever did. Virginia is very en-
tertaining, and any grown-up hearing
her talk for little while would con-
clude that out of the mouth of babes
cometh wisdom. 1t was Virginia who
cOnvulsed the audience last Christmas
when David Arthur Carson enacted the
part of Santa for the children at the
church festival. Her bright little say
ings aloud while Mr.. Carson was speak
ing caused numerous hearty and con-
tagiOus laughs. Virginia will one day
make great lover of nature, no doubt
of that.
The Palisadian acknowledges a
pretty little announcement of the birth
of Ralph Roger Nation of Brentwood,
July Z, 1920 If Master Ralph is as
pretty as the announcement cards, he
must be beauty. lin the meantime,
congratulations.
The L. G. Andersons last week spent
several days with the William III. Jack
sons in New Haven, where the latter
have been living for several months.
The Jacksons are all well, doing well,
and still look back to Palisade with
pleasant thoughts.
Paul Brady is pitching two games
a week for the Pauling, N. Y, team.
Paul is graduate of Pauling School,
where he is still very popular. He is
still possessed of a great arm in the
box, as was evidenced in Palisade last
Saturday.
Ernest Sibley. Jr, is not at a Con-
nectucut camp for the summer, but is
at Camp Pokomoonshine, n. Y, below
Lake Champlain. Maxine Sibley is at
Arrow Head Camp, on the opposite
side of Lake Champlain, in Vermont
They will be in camp for several
weeks. Mr.. Sibley says Earnest Jr.
writes the most fascinating letters. II
is his first time away from home, and
the experience is both novel and in
spring.
Misses Marie and Helen Anderson
spent several days this week at the
New Jersey beach resort, where the
Harry Flagges are summering, as the
guests of Miss Elizabeth Flagge. They
returned on Thursday, and the Ander'
son family will leave today for Groton
Long Point, Conn.,, where they have
taken a cottage for the summer.
A Pretty Home.
The home of Mr.. Niemann of New
York, now being built at the corner
of Dearborn and Bluff roads, is one
of the handsomest of the smaller
houses of the village. 1t is next to
the handsome home of the w. ID.
Lemons, and was constructed by X.
H. Hotaling & Son, of Englewood
Cliffs. 1t is Queen Anne design and
very attractive indeed, the work being
especially strong and well done. The
house has seven rooms and bath.
The Ernest Sibleys, Mr.. and Mrs.
James Stewart, Glenn and Ralph
Hacker and Harry Elkan, left at two
o'clock this morning for a days out
ing and fishing at ROckland Lake, near
Nyack. They expect to have royal
time.
