PALISADES JULY 4 CELEBRATION
ALL READY, WITH fine PROGRAM
and Brill Liant FIREWORKS DISPLAY

another anniversary of the great
day when our colonies declared their
independence is almost here, and this
July 4, 1921, will see the same love
and patriotism which has been handed
down from those earlier days. The
Palisade townspeople and our friends
from nearby communities will congre-
gate at the Fairgrounds to witness
the marvellous display of fireworks
which promises to surpass those of
former years, and share in the sing
ing of we'll known and we'll loved songs
of patriotism and home. The words
OF these songs are to be printed on
programs and given to each person,
and it is suggested that everyone
bring his pocket flashlight to enable
him to follow the words after dark.
We are to sing such songs as Gamer
lca,' Battle Hymn of the Republic"
America, the Beautiful keep the
Home Fires Burning" "Long, Long
Trail" Pack Up Your Troubles in
Your Old Kit Bag" "Tenting Tonight"
"Home Sweet Home" ="Auld Lang
Syne," etc.
In addition, the chorus has prepared
two splendid numbers which are sure
of praise.
There is no better manner of promot-
ing national spirit than the commun-
ion in each small village, and every
large city, of it's residents in open air
gatherings, sharing the joys of get
ting together" and no more fitting
way. of demonstrating our patriotism
than attending Palisades Program"
at the ball field at $3.50 p. M, July 4.

Bergen Women
Want Jury Service

The work of the Jury Commission
enrolling women for jury service pro-
crosses. -Four hundred replies have
been received to date, in response to
the letters sent out by Miss Griggs,
secretary to the Jury Commission.
The proportion is two to one against
jury service.
-Four hundred and four cards re-
ceived to date.
One hundred and twenty-five wo-
men expressed willingness to serve,
as against 279 women objecting to
jury service, for reasons as enumer-
ated: 60 have decided objections to
serving GA object, owing to ill health !;
20 owing to care of children; So
owing to household duties.
This comparison seems to carry
right through and is a fair estimate
of the sentiment and capabilities of
women for jury service
In the case of the men-with a few
legal exemptions-jury service is
mandatory. 1t could also be manda-
tory for women, but the Bergen
County Jury Commission has decided
to allow the women to volunteer for
this service. If such a method had
not been adopted by the commission
279 women would have been drafted
for jury service who would have been
unable to perform.
The Jury Commission is continuing
it's requests for volunteers and is conf
dent it will have liberal sprinkline
of the fair sex in the panels for the
coming September term of court

Gala Day at
Clifside High

The closing day of the local high
school proved a gala one as after the
promotion and report cards had been
distributed, all the students were as.
sembled in the large auditorium,
where there We're many parents,
friends and alumni of the school.
The program was lengthy one as
many rewards for athletic merits
were awarded. This included nu-
merals for the senior girls and the
junior boys the respective winners of
the interclass basketball series and
ribbons to the winners for the events
held during the interclass meet. Let
tiers to members of the championship
team who earned them according to
the ruling of the athletic association
and the presenting of miniature gold
baseballs to all the members of the
baseball squad of 1921.
Mr. Wm Sperling presented the let
tiers to the baseball men, and Mr.
Sears presented the gold baseballs in
behalf of the loyal fans and rooters of
the team.
Speeches were made by Superin-
tendent Hall, Principal Burns, Mr..
Sears, Councilman Marini, Walter
Stein, president of the Alumni, and
Erwin Goemann. Mr.. Whelan, eX-
president of the Board of Education
and Arthur Scullion were also guests
of honor.
Among the days celebrities was the
presentation of a cello and cornet
to the school by Miss Ethel Smith,
president of the Glee Club.
In appreciation of Coach Sperling's
excellent work and his good fellow
ship with the members of the Cham
pionship squad he was presented with
a gold baseball similar to those given
to the players, by Edwin Corriston,
captain, in behalf of the team.
The grandest and most successful
effort of the day was the reproduc-
ton of the eighth and ninth innings
Of the game with Passaic on a playo-
graph. Every minute detail of the
game was given, and it will live for
ever in the minds of Cliffside students.
The game was enacted realistically on
the board made by Joe Whelan.

.Hu111bugging
Bigger Hurnbug

Versatility seems to be gift to
"Hackensack's own," Andrew Jack
son De Voc. The prOgnOsticator does
many more things equally as well as
prOgnosticate.
The latest is that A. J. is some
farmer. This fact was garnered be-
tween sentences pertaining to the
weather, and the tone of voice used
would indicate that the seer of ad-
vance dope ON the sunshine and rain
(and blizzards), is as proud of his
farming ability as he is of his prog
nosticating gift, which is saying some
thing.
And here's a secret If you would
have beetS and peas and bush beans
by the first week of July regardless
of the drought, follow the system of
the gentleman of whom this article is
written. Plant your seeds deep
enough and the lack of rain will not
bother them in the least.
Another secret! The weather-pro-
phet of Paramount and the U. S. A.
claims that this years garden, plant
ed by his hand and cared for between
lectures and so forth is the best he
has owned in fifty years. Now draw
your own conclusion.
To digress for an instant in the
interest of posterity, let the many
activities of the foe of the govern
ment weather bureau be set down.
First of all, he is weather-prophet
extraordinary. He is the only one in
captivity who believes that the moon
has direct influence on the weather
as we receive it. Also, he is emphatic
in his statements that the weather
for 1888 can be made as an open book
for those who read it in 1921.
Then he is a musician, a singer! A
bass one at that.
Lecturer, debater and prize-fght en-
thusiast. The latter is proven by his
recent prediction on the weather for
the Dempsey Carpenter 'go," which
was, melting weather"
The rain of early Sunday morning
must have been hiding behind one of
the bean bushes on the De Voc garden
plot because the professor failed to see
it and did not expect it to arrive until
July 5.
The heat wave is to continue and
the storm of the fifth of next month
will be the first relief to arrive, ac-
cording to the hero of this tale.
So if you are planning on spend
ing the Fourth out of town, twill be
wise to plan getting home before the
fifth, else you will spoil the new
hat.-Hackensack Record

$3.50 Boys Give
Reception

The Fifty-Fifty Club, composed of
held their entertainment in behalf of
the parents and older members of the
church on Tuesday night last in the
main auditorium. The principal per-
Torrance on the program was the
holding of regular meeting on the
stage. The boys sat in a semi-circle,
young Benny Fink presiding, which he
did in a most engaging manner. In
fact, his poise and self possession sur
prised the audience. He conducted
the meeting with fine spirit, his own
address being of remarkable quality
for boy so young. The various chair
men of committees made reports on
the years dOings, their many activities
attracting undivided attention. The
boys have played regular seasons at
basketball and baseball, winning a ma
jority in each branch of the sport, be-
sides taking several hikes The Or
ganization proved it's worth in many
directions, but in none more effectively
than in developing self-reliant spirit
in the members. In response to a re-
quest that he say something to the
boys, Charles T. Logan said he would
like to make a club motto out of the
name-50-50. He said it should mean,
one-half good, the other better.
The boys gave their friends de-
liciOus refreshments after the meeting,
consisting of ice cream, cakes and
other dainties
