THE LACK OF ISSUES

In the coming contest for the office
OF Mayor of Cliffside Park to date
there is a decided lack of issues upon
which those who do not take person
alities into consideration can base
their decision.
There are many who know Kenny,
like him as man, and will vote for
him because of that, and the same is
true of the other candidate, Marini;
but there is a large number of people,
especially newcomers, who are not
personally acquainted with these men,
know little about them as individuals
and are quite Indifferent as far as the
personality of one or the other is con-
cerned, are waiting for something
more, which is, of course, the policies
that they intend to effect if elected.
In truth there is really no big issue
in borough affairs as they stand to-
day, unless one is created, and wheth-
er the candidates will stand for any.
thing specific in the conduct of bor-
ough affairs or simply present them
selves as men relying on their fitness
for the Office based upon their capa-
bilities and past performances re-
mains to be seen.

SEVENTEEN YEARS

The Palisadian this week presents
itself in different mood from it's regu-
lar issues. 1t Is a sort of celebration
of its seventeenth birthday, and the
Young manager has gotten together a
representative list Of expressions that
make it evident that the efforts or the
little newspaper have been appre-
ciated. Seventeen years is a long time
when looked at as road down which
we must travel before something can
be accomplished. Unrecorded time Is
always further away than time which
has passed The man who met anoth-
er after long separation asked, How
long have you been married, old mani"
"Oh, twenty-five years." came the re-
ply. my! but that's a long time"
mo, it only seems long" So, these
seventeen years past have not been
really long period, yet they have been
fraught with many interesting and
sometimes stirring events associated
with our charming village. Palisade
was really not ready for paper when
the Palisadian was born seventeen
years ago, but it's future seemed SO.
promising and so altogether bright
that its founder, young as he was,
foresaw the possibilities of the sec
ton, so he tossed his little bark upon
the waves, and it's having survived
many sieges of various kinds, has
successfully weathered them all, so
that now it might, without any fiatter-
ing JUNCTION, lay claim to form OF
success, at any rate.
Palisade and this whole section is
so altogether different today from
what it was seventeen years ago that
the record is both interesting and
really quite remarkable. Many Of the
people who were pioneers in the ear
lier period of the Hilltop Section are
. still here; others have gone away, or
passed on, while great many thou
sands of others have come in TO join
the old list, till there is now quite a
presentable population worthy of con
sideration and worth while IN a tax
value sense. Values hereabouts have
increased tremendously, and property
interests have now grown to be really
worth looking at.
So far as The Palisadian Is concern
ed 1t promises no more for the future
than 1t has in the past. 1t will con-
tinue to try and improve and it stands
ready to serve public interests with
all of the fidelity within it's power,
holding fast to those higher ideals
expressed and reprinted elsewhere in
this issue in its polite Bow" first
editorial.
Bespeaking for this section an era
of prosperity second to none in the
Metropolitan district, and wishing hap
piness to all, we salute In affection
ate esteem this whole neighborhood.

TRIBUTES TO FOUNDER
Continued from page 1

gan's and a fellow ball player, said
that his best was expressed in the let
ter that was printed in that issue, and
he would say the same thing again
today. The letter follows:
"The passing of Charles T. Logan,
Jr., is the most severe shock inter-
community baseball could have re-
ceived. Much has been said in btse-
ball circles, the games greatest field
ers, the worlds keenest pitchers and
the sports ablest managers, but these
are merely the individuals who are
made great by baseball. Those who
make baseball the national pastime
are the amateurs who play for the
love of the game and not for the love
of the gamest and most sportsman
like playing manager of all Bergen
county amateur teams, Charles T. Lo-
gan, Jr. His ability as a pitcher and
general all-around player has been a
source of much comment among his
host of admirers.
"In view of the fact that his name
will be remembered for many years as
a clean sport, l think am justified in
saying that Charlie Logan has, in
dividually, done more to promote the
national game on the Hilltop section
than the combined efforts of Mathew
son and McGraw have done for the
New York Giants. A comparison of
this order may seem foolish, but it
really is perfectly logical to meas
one who has been in personal contact
with him on the baseball field. He
has not only been one of the star
players, but was the organizer-the
enthusiast who melted the interest
and secured the cooperation of the
other stars. The spectators could not
have realized how difficult it was for
him to keep a team of amateurs in
tact.
"The straightforward manner in
which he conducted his managerial af-
fairs, his winning and welcoming
handshake were predominating traits
of his character. These characteris-
tics, however, are merely a few of his
admirable qualities. In fact, he has
done a number of little things that
have not reached the public ears and
nobody knows and feels more than do
the boys with whom he affiliated him
self that whatever he did was perform
ed for the joy of doing something
worth while and not for notoriety's
reward
"As one who has been intimately
acquainted with him as a ball player
for the past two years it seems to me
that he was bound to his fellow team
mates by rare friendship and was
always happy-making others glad.
Sincerely,
ERWIN GOEMANN."

of transportation from standpoint of
comfort and convenience is too OBJ
viously in favor of the street car to
be worthy of discussion.
1t is from standpoint of service
that the two must be considered.
Many bus lines, those that run be-
tween Edgewater ferry to the Hilltop
villages in particular, operate for their
own gain with no thought of service
to the passengers.
Time and again the busses wait for
two and three boats to land, some
times four, and refuse to move until
the bus is full; and their idea of full
is six people to a row of seats that
will only accommodate five persons.
With all that has been said to dis
parage the street cars, not one can
recall an instance when car failed
to run according to schedule because it
didn't have a load
Many cases are reported where driv-
ers and attendants have been rude,
impudent and absolutely unfeeling in
the handling of passengers, which is
only an occasional occurrence in the
case Of conductors and motormen who
are, for the most part, courteous and
polite.

BELIEVE IN THE "EVIL EYE"
One of the Most Ancient of Superstl
tions-Mentioned by St. Paul,
in Galatians.

The EVIL Eye" is a mysterious
power attributed to certain persons
who are thereby able to injure others,
pr even to cause their death, by simply
looking at them. This ancient and
widespread superstition was at one
time sanctioned by the classical au-
thors, the fathers of the church, and
the physicians of the Middle ages; and
is still believed in by many nations
within the range of Christendom. The
belief is widely spread among the ltal-
ians and Spaniards at the present day,
as well as among the Turks, Chinese
and Japanese. The ancient Greeks
called 1t Baskania, and the Romans,
Fascinum. Virgil, in the Third Eclogue,
speaks Of an "evil eye" that has be-
witched the tender lambs; and st.
Paul, in Galatians 81, makes use OF
the idea metaphorically to denote the
spiritual perversion of the Galatians
as follows:
40 foolish Galatians, who hath be-
witched you, that ye should not obey
the truth, before whose eyes Jesus
Christ hath evidently set forth, cruci-
fed among youT'-Detroit News.
Palisadian., 1923-09-21
MANY KINDS OF BIRDS NESTS
Homes Vary as Greatly as Do the
Feathered Creatures Who Raise
Families Therein.

The average time taken by bird to
build it's nest is about week; but If
the first enc be destroyed a second
home may be built in a day, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. A few birds
afflicted with chronic laziness do no
more than repair an old nest of last
year. Immediately after the nest has
been built egg laying begins, usually
at the rate Of one day laid about the
same time. Eggs laid in dark holes,
like those of the woodpeckers and
kingfishers, are always white, so that
they can be seen by the bird entering
the nest. Eggs, however, are all col
ors. Often, contrary to popular opin-
ion, the coloring is not at all protec-
tive. The number of eggs laid in
creases with the amount of danger to
which they are exposed. Sea birds
nesting on the inaccessible cliffs lay
only one egg waterfowl ten to twenty.
cubation usually begins with the laying
of the first egg. Owls, however, be-
gin when the last egg has been laid.
Robins eggs require fourteen days in
cubation, ducks twenty-seven, geese
thirty-five. In all cases during this
period the eggs have to be constantly
turned and moistened. Usually incu-
baton is the work Of the female alone,
but the male sparrow is peculiar in
that he sinks his dgnity-and does
his share.
Palisadian., 1923-09-21
THE PUBLIC SERVICE RESUMES

The announcement that the Public
Service, after the long and costly
strike, will resume operations on it's
trolley lines throughout New Jersey,
is, of course, source Of much salts
faction to the general public. 1t is
not necessary to say that the Public
Service has delivered dependability
of service which is not fully appre-
ciated. When the strike took place
the company, in fighting it, merely un-
dertook to establish certain principles
in law regarding it's rights, and it had
no other thought in extending the
fight through so long a period. When
it is remembered that there are over
10000 stockholders, principally New
Jersey people, owning the Public Serv-
ice, it will be more clearly seen that
any fight the company puts up for its
rights is in behalf of it's owners, who
are, in the final count, the people
themselves. The fact that the COM
pany is abused roundly for inferior
service and other things does not
make the accusation true. 1t is a
question If any trolley system in the
United States is as good as the Pub
lie Service of New Jersey in a general
way. The severe winters of this Sec
tion are the truest expression of what
the company has done in the way of
trolley service. With limited num-
ber of exceptions, the bitterest weather
has found Public Service trolleys in
working order and generally on sched-
ule. What would the public do in our
savage winters without the trolley
service?
The Public Service Railway is not
run for the benefit of it's board of di.
rectors or officeholders. They are
merely the representatives of the
stockholders. The fact that they may
get good salaries is no more than
other corporation heads receive from
large manufacturers or national
banks. These remarks are made, not
in special defense of the Public Serv-
ice, but merely because the justice OF
the situation demands that something
be said to its credit. No form of local
transportation service is adequate or to
be compared with the trolley systems
generally, and the recent strike has
proven that buses, while they help
some, are a joke compared with the
trolley. Give the devil his due.
Palisadian., 1923-09-21
LEGAL ADVERTISING

Legal advertising is the political
plum which every newspaper seeks.
With some papers it falls into their
hands and others have to climb for it..
Legal advertising consists of all no.
tees, ordinances, calls for bids, etc,
that governing body is required by
law to publish. Some legal advertising
conveys very important and necessary
information to the taxpayers while
much of it is simply matter of form.
Papers seek it for two reasons
First, because it provides revenue
far in excess of that obtained from
display advertising of the merchants
12c. per line for the first insertion and
10c. per line for each subsequent in
sertion. A papers rate for display ad-
vertising may be 40c. an inch yet with
about IL lines to an inch of legal ad-
vertising the rate per inch that a
publisher receives is increased to
around $1.20 and is less expense to
him because it is set on the linotype
machine and not by hand.
Second, there is a certain amount
Of prestige that results from being
called the official paper of the borough.
The general rule is to name an Off
cial paper, publish what is required
in the paper so chosen and let it go
at that. But the general rule is not
always a good rule and those who
place advertising for any public body
should exercise as much care in seeing
that it is so advertised that it accom-
plishes the initial purpose of informing
all the taxpayers and not simply to
satisfy the requirements of the law.

Notable Men

NEW YORK. May a1.-Hundreds of
thousands of Americans who have
returned from European tours to
the port of New York remember
Judge" Smith, elderly. heayyset
ship news reporter, who climbed the
monkey ladder of their vessels sides
at quarantine to gather the news Of
their adventures abroad.
They will remember his. courtly,
almost an1bassad manner, the
dignity of this dean of the ship

carried for the tourists, news-hup-
cry after days at sea.
Judge Smith has covered his last
ship. News was received here
Wednesday that the Judge" died
suddenly in Paris hotel while max
ing his first trip abroad.
For 20 years Smith had covered
ship news. For 20 years he had sped
departing travellers on their way,
watching the smoke trails fade on
the eastward horizon, outward
bound to the lands of romance he
had never seen. For 20, years he had
welcomed them on their return.

A few weeks ago word spread
along the waterfront that 1.-The
Judge" was going to Europe. 1t was
shrieked bon voyage" when, with
his white haired wife, he started the
voyage on which ne had wished SO
many others farewell. Thursday the
harbor boatmen mourned: The
Judge" is dead.

all knew him as 1.-The Judge" The
title came from some obscure post
as a New Jersey magistrate. held in
his youth. Thus j. p. Morgan and

known to Sir Thomas Upton, Judge
Gary, Enrico Caruso. the Astors, and
the Vanderbilts, who recognized his
welcome as the first sign of home.
One ambition marked his life-the
dream of the time when he might
visit Europe, and then retire to the
farm he had bought at Bethel, Conn.,,
