'STRAUbEP|ANOC0,
PLANS TO0bSERVE
. ITS ANNIVERSARY

In what is described as an endeav-
or to show home appreciation to the
people Of Hammond and Lake coun-
ty for their eighteen years of pat
ronage. the Management of the Strau-
.5e Piano and Music Store. cal Hob
man street, announced today that
the firm will hold an anniversary
celebration. Beginning October 9Th.
and continuing throughout the re-
inainder of the month. The feature
Of the celebration will be an unus-
ual reduction in the prices of a
large group Of pianos, according TO
c. W. Smith. manager OF the store
In outlining the motives actuating
the celebration. Mr.. Smith pointed
out that the management has Lad
rnder consideration number OF
plans for celebrating the anniver-
cary and that the Offering OF a
large group of pianos at greatly re-
duced prices had been decided upon
as the best method of giving the
community some material manifes-
tation of the firms gratitude. The
store has been in business eighteen
years and this is the first time that
an anniversary celebration has been
undertaken.
1t has been our purpose to put
the prices on this group of instru-
ments down to point where the
average family OF the community
can buy without assuming any no
ticeable burden: by doing this we
hope to place pianos in homes
where otherwise they might not be
available Mr.. Smith said.
In making this announcement,
however. 1 would point out that we
are not planning a sale, in the gem
eral sense OF the term. Our bust
ness is good and there Is no reason
why we should offer any of our
stock at reduced prices. other than
that we want to show the people of
this community that we appreciate
their patronage,

Donaldson Home
Has Small Fire

The Cliffside siren sounded an
alarm last Sunday morning about 5
o'clock, which proved to be a blaze
in the cellar of the Prof. George
Donaldson home in Edgewater
Heights. 1t started near the furnace
and worked it's way into the wall,
where it was difficult to get at. How
ever, Professor Donaldson and his
son finally put it out with a chemical
extinguisher, and while the firemen
responded with fine promptness they
were saved the trouble of turning on
water through the fortunate work of
the Donaldsd 5. A report spread
Palisade that the Donaldson
home had been destroyed, and many
telephone messages of inquiry were
sent in. The home is filled with
many rare relics from all over the
world gathered by Professor and Mrs.
Donaldson in their world tour some
years ago, one of the most valuable
collections in the country.

War Resident
Passes Away

Captain James J.. Madison, who re-
Gently moved to Palisade and resided
on Anderson avenue, passed away
this week as the result of an attack
of pneumonia.
Captain Madison was but thirty
three years of age and beloved by all
who knew him. He served in the
u. S. Navy during the war and was
injured by a piece of shrapnel during
an engagement in the mid-Atlantic
while on the Ticonderoga, which was
sunk the same day, September 80,
1918. After spending four days and
nights ia >small lifebnat adrift at
sea, he was rescued and taken to the
Naval Hospital in Brooklyn, where
he was confined seven months. Naval
doctors did all in their power to save
the injured limb, but finally it had to
be amputated. Since this war expert
ence he had enjoyed good health up
to the recent i'll spell, which lasted
but two weeks. He was a member Of
the Dorie Lodge of Masons, also the
Neptune Association of New York
City,
Captain Madison is survived by his
mother, wife, two sisters and five
year-old son. The funeral services
were held in the home yesterday and
the deceased was buried in the Fair
view Cemetery.

Three Accidents
On Anderson Ave.

The police records in Cliffside Park
contain accounts of several motor ac-
,cidents this past week, none of which
were very serious.
At noon December % Ford touring
car driven by Herbert Owens of Glen
Ridge, n. j., was proceeding north in
Anderson avenue, and the driver
swerved slightly to the left, intending
to enter the grounds of the Grantwood
Lumber Company, but on the spur OF
the moment changed his mind max
ing turn to the right, which resulted
in collision with Moon car driven
by Philip Smith of Warren avenue,
Palisade, who was driving south on
Anderson avenue. The latter's car
was demolished, but the Ford was not
damaged to any great extent. Mr..
Owens admits the accident was due to
his speedy decision in making turn.
The defendant was paroled and the
case will be heard before Mayor
'Cadien shortly.
Xmas Smash
A second collision occurred on An
derson avenue near Gorge road
Christmas afternoon when a car driv-
en- by Fred R. Swan of Springfield,
Mass, crashed into a bort, driven by
Oscar Olsen of Hoboken, N. j., who
was turning off Anderson avenue to
go south on Gorge road. Mr.. Olsen
holds Mr. Swan responsible for the ac-
cident, and the case will be heard be-
fore Judge Kenny. A. Frederick Kill
niger was a witness. No one was in
jured.
Bike and Dodge
At 4 p. m. ON December 26 Thomas
Smith of Ridgefield while riding BIZ
cycle on Anderson avenue near Law
ton was struck by Dodge touring
car driven by Claribee Felser of Jasa-
mine Way, Grantwood. The young
ster, who is thirteen years old, receiv-
ed few bruises and minor cuts,
which were treated by Dr. Hellstern
of Hudson Heights, after which he
was taken home by Captain Borrell.

Telephone Rates
Not to Be Raised

1t has been brought to our attention
by Mr. c. A. MCGOWAN, the telephone
company's local commercial man.
ager, that telephone rates in Palisade
have not been raised, as stated in
last weeks issue The statement
that an increase in rates had been
put into effect was made through a
misunderstanding, as we confused the
rates for residential individual line
service, which is $36 per year, with
those of business individual line serv-
ice, which is S4S per year.
AS to the quality of service, we have
been assured by Mr. MCGOWAN that,
although the service is generally
good, the Telephone Company is con-
stantly striving to improve it.
The cause of the mistake in the
Palisadians article was that the new
manager of the Palisadian had ap-
piled for new telephone for the
office, and not informing the editor of
it, the contract came to the latter, ad-
dressed to him personally, with the
S4S per year business" rate named
in it. The editor, presupposing that,
as about everything else in the world
was going up, telephones were also,
since the home rate had for years
been S36 per year. 1t is to be regret
ted, of course, that the mistake was
made, and this correction is gladly
published, with the greatest regret
for the occurrence and all apologies
to the telephone company.

10000 Pieces of
Mail at Palisade
P. 0. Xmas Week

The Palisade post Office during the
week before Christmas and on Christ
mas day was more nearly swamped
than bateau in gale. Miss Ber-
tha Grabosky, the energetic postmas-
ter, and her loyal assistant, Miss
Saitta, had their hands full and run
ming over. Just how many carloads of
Christmas gifts went out from and
came into Palisade in the week is not
known, but Bertha thinks it was more
than anyone could count, using both
hands. Asked if 10000 pieces of mail
were handled, she said: 81 don't know
but | imagine it could easily have
been that many. We were busy night
and day and worked overtime. We
