Mayor Todd, of Pal.
Park, for Assembly

Robert Todd, mayor of Palisade
Park, N. j., close student of munich
pal affairs, will seek the Republican
nomination for the assembly at the
fall primaries. Mayor Todd is a prom
1nent business man and has a strong
Insight into the needs of municipali-
ties.
He said this week 81 believe that it
is high time for a well defined pro-
gram to remedy some glaring munich
pal evils. The Martin act must and
should undergo vigorous revision and
that without an embarrassing position.
For instance, the cost to close out a
lot is at least $40, and then the title is
questionable under that act.
Another conspicuous error is the
method or rather the lack of proper
regulation of tax collectors. Too many
face prosecution because of the system
improperly constructed and defined.
Business men would not tolerate
such lax methods in their own bust
ness, and still in the governing of mu-
nicipal affairs involving millions of
dollars these things are permitted to
go on
Mr.. Todd has been active in the east
'ern section of Bergen county for TWEEN
ty years. He is product of the New
York city schools and graduate of
the Harlem High School. He served
his borough as councilman six years
and is now serving his third term as
mayor. In private life he is a contract
ing plumber and real estate broker
His knowledge also covers that of
finance, being director of the Pail
SADIE Park National Bank as well as in
the Ridgefield Building and Loan AssO

Up the FIowery Mountain.

Every year thousands Of Chinese
pilgrims risk their lives in climbing
up the side Of Hwa-Shan, the Flow
cry mountain, which is sacred to the
Taoist religion. Any one reaching the
temple far above is supposed to have
any request granted as reward for
valor and endurance. The Hwa-Shan
mountain is over 5000 feet high, and
the ascent In many places must be
made along narrow ledge Of branches
laid on posts driven horizontally into
the face of the precipice. There are
no handrails, but chain held on a
rock face offers some security to the
ascending or descending pilgrim.

CRANTWOOD CONCRECA'L CHURCH
SUED FOR $4,000 BY AN ITALIAN
CAUSE CL0THESPOLE FELL ON HIM

An Italian, Mario Garofalo, of RapeI-
yea street, Brooklyn, has entered suit
for $4,000 damages in strange case
against the Congregational Church of
Grantwood. Garofalo claims that he
was injured while living with his wife
and children at the mission house,
owned by the Congregational Church.
The mission is located at 312 Second
street, Cliffside Park. He alleges that
on July 10, 1919, he was injured by a
clothes pole falling on him, owing
to negligence of the church manage
ment. He was confined for several
weeks at hospital, and after other
treatment it is now decided that he
will be prevented from working all his
life
From accounts published there APP
pears to be no dispute over the fact
that Garofalo was injured by the
clothes pole falling on him, or that
he was severely injured. But Attorney
Arthur NJ Agnew, for the church, has
prepared an answer to the charge
which claims that on the Sunday after
noon in question Garofalo and two
friends were cutting down some large
limbs from a tree on the mission prop
erty and that while one of the men was
cutting very large limb the plaintiff
was holding it up with pitchfork.
The limb fell without warning and
struck the clothes pole, knocking down
the latter, which in turn fell on top of
GarofalO. The pole landed in such
position that it took at least fifteen
minutes to extricate Garofalo from I'M
derneath.
! The answer further states that Caro-
! fa1o did not have the right to cut the
| limb from the tree, and that in doing
so he was a transgressor and brought
about his own injury by damaging
property he did not own. There is not
much chance of the plaintiff getting
damages for any sum in the circum-
stances.

Dollar Day Sale
Whopping Success

The great Dollar Day at Union Hill
this week was great success. About
everybody from this section of the
county excurted to Union Hill, and
there is no doubt but that the scheme
was a brilliant success. Palisade
about emptied itself into the lap of
Union Hill, the advertising of the
event in The Palisadian, of course, be-
ing the direct cause Grantwood and
Clitfside, also, sent large delegations.
The little city below was jammed with
thousands of people from about every
where on the map and automobiles
were so many they could not be count
ed. 1t all shows what a wideawake
town Union Hill is when it tries itself

Clifside Board
Of Education

Inv SiISluc DodIu VI EDUCATION
had quite a spirited meeting at the
high school on last Thursday evening,
at which a number of townspeople
were present. Mr.. Bohm was the only
member of the board absent when
President GOlmann called the meeting
to order.
The minutes of the last meeting of
the board were read.
Richard Fox then made report for
the building and grounds committee
with reference to the painting to be
done on schools Nos. /, and 3. The
board then authorized the building
| committee TO assign the contract "a
whom they thought would do the best
work at the most reasonable price.
Mr.. Fox gave report that the loss
! of the tools stolen and the glass bro
ken recently amounted to $40.
1t was reported that the supplies
for next year had been ordered.
Then the board subscribed $40 to an
organization of Bergen county which
was a great help to the kindergarten
tea cheers.
The governing committee was then
authorized to give permission to the
borough health officials to use the old
Board of Education room of the Cliff
side school as clinic until the clinic
room which is to be in the new addi-
ton to the Borough Hall is ready.
Superintendent of Schools Hall then
gave a report. He recommended that
the teachers report on Tuesday, Sep
TENDER and the students on We'd
nesday, September s.
A report of DR.. Fersler, the school
medical inspector, was read. This
was very well constructed report
and was of the work done from March
10 to May H.
Next, letters from concerns to whom
the board was liable were read. All
of these were kind and showed SYM
pathy to the board for the difficulties
they were in.
Next, designations of several of the
teachers were read
Mr.. Hall then stated that all of the
high school vacancies were filled but
the one of mathematics, and he had
received several applications for that
as well as for the other vacancies.
A motion was then carried that an
apology be sent to the police depart
ment, as they had not been requested
to parade at the annual school picnic.
A motion was then made that Dr..
Fersler be reappointed as medical in
spector. Mr.. FRANKIE made motion
that this matter be set over to the
next meeting. Both motions were
voted on, but without result, as there
was tie vote each time. This started
quite a heated discussion by several
accusations made by Mr.. Velsey, which
were retaliated by the Messrs FRANKIE,
Fox and KorSineck.
The board then took a recess, to
meet as a committee of the whole.

CAREERS FOR YOUNG BRIT0Ns
Compared With Opportunities in Amer.
lea They May Be Said to Be
Decidedly Limited.

Here in America we are quite like
ly to take for granted that if man
has good education, then his finding
of an opportunity to apply it profit
ably Is comparatively simple matter.
Certainly our whole educational pro-
gram, and especially our whole line
of educational appeal and propaganda,
will have to be changed the moment
that assumption is no longer to be
made, Whiting Williams writes in
Scribner's. Equip yourself, Young
America, and the country's yours p we
say in effect to our youth whether in
school or at work.
In Britain there is much testimony
to the effect that that assumption is
not thus to be made
Unless they spend additional years
training for medicine, the law, or 9th
er of the professions, graduates of the
universities must pretty much expect
to find berths in the civil service. The
exams for that are extremely difficult.
Those who come out of them with
ihai MS at IHe Top OI the lSC get the
best of the positions in the most i'm
portant departments at home. They
next go out to India or other provinces,
while those below them take the Sec
ond grade of the places here-and
so on.
The pay starts at about 1900 (nomi-
nally $1,000, and considerably more in
buying power), with gradual yearly in
creases up to certain maximum and
pension.

senza, Italy.
