A New Era Dawns.

There was a rOusing chorus OF
"Aye! !" In which Mr.. Carmichael. fol
lowed closely by Mr.. Bonner, made his
exit. b. B. Hamm went forward and
shook Jim's hand slowly and con-
templatively, as If trying to remember

Jim had, after what seemed to
Jennie an interminable while, seen the
county superintendent and her dis

gagged in welcoming them and endeav-
oring to find them seats-quite an i'm
possible thing at that particular mo-
ment, by the way.

Doctor ~Brathwayt. This is the best

answer to some question in his mind.

A Local Wizard
At Doing Things

Frank Maribella, who runs a fine
little hardware store in Anderson ave-
nue., Grantwood, north of the Cliff
side Garage, is also a locksmith and
a wizard. He had a career in the navy,
and ranked high as a machinist. In
fact, he can do about anything in the
world that requires tools and metal.
If you have lost your door key, Frank
will open it for you, make new key
on the spot and go his way rejoicing.
He found Palisade family all fused
up the other evening with the back
door key lost, and not only opened the
door and made a new key in jigtime,
but repaired two other locks in the
house that were on the blink in no
time at all. Frank is just as obliging
as he is talented, makes his charges
more than reasonable and no job
stalls him-he simply can do anything
and do it right. Next week he will
have a telephone, and all you have
to do is to "get his number" His
amiability is one of his chief traits.

CarlStadt Bus In
Bluff Road Sunday

Terrible outrage! Last Sunday
morning there went through Bluff
road, Palisade, a Something
or Other bus loaded to the guards
with passengers presumably for the
park. Although they were ogled by
everybody, who wondered what it
could all mean, the driver went on
into Palisade avenue just as though
nothing at all had happened. OF
course he did not know that there is
q law against buses not only in this
but in adjoining boroughs or he would
have hesitated at so bold an act as
riding roughshod over the law. Some
one ran after the bus in order to no.
tify the driver of the big chance he
was taking, but he got away and pre-
sumably landed his charges at their
destination. OF course it was quite
early in the morning, and the official
guardians of the peace were not
around in the usual Sunday numbers,
else the audacious chap would have
got his. If the citizens will only keep
an eye open for such wanton viola
tions of the law as this it will be an
easy matter to put a stop to 1t. But
at that this latest outrage will not
soon be forgotten.

Architect Selected
For New Hospital

The building committee of the hos
pital, which consists of Mayor Ward
of Demarest, Mayor Pollock of Leonia,
ex-Mayor White of Fort Lee, Malcolm
Mackay and Charles Frazer of Tena-
fly R. C. Post, James w. Escher, II.
M. Brinckerhoff, Douglas G. Thomson,
]. R. Simpson and Mayor c. d. Kerr Of
Englewood and Mrs. S. B. Colt as sec
retary, has been extremely busy since
the hospital drive.
One of it's first tasks was the selec-
tion of a firm of architects. After a
very thorough investigation of the
qualifications of architects specialize
ing in the design and construction Of
hospitals the committee has retained
the firm of Crow, Lewis & Wick of
New York city, which the committee
found were particularly well equipped
for the work Messrs. Crow, Lewis
and Wick were the architects of the
modern wing of the present hospital.
That firm is now undertaking the
preparation of the necessary prelim-
mary plans. In advance of the prep
aration and approval of these plans
the general arrangement of the new
buildings cannot be predicted, but the
building committee feels that one of
their most important obligations is to
make provision for hospital facilities
upon the scale upon which the appeal
for funds was made.

A. O. EIdridge Appointed Com
missioner for Police
Pension Fund.

1t is possible that the roadway in
front of the Palisade Theatre Corpo-
property will be IiIed in and graded
in the near future making the street
on a level with the car tracks. A Pc
tition was presented by the corpora
ton to the mayor and council of Fort
Lee at the regular meeting on
Wednesday night asking that this work
be done and stating that the expense
would be met by the owners of the
property and the share that would
ordinarily be assessed against the bor-
ough at large would be met by the
Palisade Theatre Corporation. An
ordinance accompanied the petition
and was referred to the attorney and
financial adviser to check over. 1t
will be brought up at the next meet
ing.
J. Fletcher Creamer, the garbage
contractor, reported through letter
that the dump was at present in a
very bad condition due to the failure
of the neighboring boroughs to take
heed of the signs and cease dumping
refuse and also because no leveling
has been done. He offered to do the
leyeling for $40 per week and upon
the passage of motion was given the
work at the price set by him. Some
precaution will be taken in regard to
the dumping by people from other
boroughs.
John E. Quinn of Palisade, through
letter asked that light be installed
at Bluff road and Arcadian way. This
was left in the hands of the light COM
mittee with power.
A resolution introduced by Mr..
Schaal and seconded by Mr.. Corker re-
scinded the resolution making the Ber-
gen Citizen the legal paper of the Dor
ough and designated the Sentinel as
the same.
AS result of an investigation made
by Mr.. Corker, the engineer, and Mr..
j. Sharp of Palisade, Mr.. Corker rec
commended that the clerk write the
Board of Freeholders asking them to
install dish basin ON Anderson ave
nue. to expedite the drainage of
Edgewood lane in the Palisade Sec
ton. Same was ordered done.
The Inspiration Motion Picture
Company was given permission to
erect platform at Crystal Lake to
be used in connection with a motion
picture.
Amendments to the Lemoine avenue
ordinances for curbs and cutters rails
ing the total appropriation to 100000
were given their first reading. The
original appropriation was S30,000>and
it was later raised to $4,000 and now
this new ordinance passes to 100000.
The mayor appointed three men to
serve as commissioners for the police
pension fund and the appointments
were confirmed by the council. The
men appointed are August Becker for
one year, A. o. Eldridge of Palisade
for two years and Patrolman Philip
Heft for three years.

LAW BROKEN BY PARK
BUSES, CLAIMS WRITER
SAYS Police Officials Have Been
Negligent in Their
Duty.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
When a law is violated the offender
should be punished according to the
provisions of that law. The Palisade
Amusement Park is violating an ordi-
nance of the Borough of Chffside
Park. The ordinance referred to is
entitled: An ordinance providing for
the regulation of the operation of au-
tobuses commonly called jitneys in
the Borough of .Cliffside Park.
Buses running from Newark are
permitted to park in the amusement
park. They are violating a borough
ordinance. Section three of that ordi-
nance states that 'The word street as
used herein shall mean and include
any street, avenue, parkway, highway
or other public place" Furthermore,
as far as the citizens of this borough
know, the bus line that uses the
amusement park as public parking
station does not pay the license fee
of $3.50 a bus, as required by said
OIuluduCe. lu6 llCcuSo Lee Is SIdltu
in section IA of the ordinance.
This is a very obvious violation of
the law, and it is the duty of local
police officials to prohibit the parking
and operating said buses in the
amusement park, unless said fee is
paid. This violation of the law has
been continuing for the past six
weeks, and none of the public officials
have paid the slightest attention to
the ordinance that has been violated.
The citizens of this borough are en-
titled to know why the police officials
of this borough have been negligent
in their duties.
On the other hand a group of men
recently offered to pay a nominal IL
cense fee. They promised to render
the public year around service,
charging a 5 cent fare. These men
do not want to violate any ordinance
or law. But the license fee as stated
hibitive, and has prevented these men
from operating their buses on streets
to be designated by borough officials.
Should the Newark-P -Palisade Amuse-
ment Park bus line be permitted to
operate without payment of said fee,
while this group of men who are will
ing to pay fair fee are restricted
through the prohibitory fee from oper-
ating? Are the people entitled to a
5 cent fare? Should the borough ordi-
nances be enforced? Fair minded peo-
pie think that they should.
The bus line that seeks to operate
under a nominal fee would run from
| the Palisade Amusement Park to
Charles street, West Hoboken, charg-
ing fare of cents for that distance
For 10 cent fare they would carry
their passengers to 18th street, Ho
boken.
The five cent fare is very popular
These buses, furthermore, could oper-
ate at a fair profit on this cent fare
under a nominal license fee. What
are the profits of the Newark -Palisade
Amusement Park bus line, operating
without the payment of any kind of a
| fee? At any rate borough ordinances
should be enforced, and the police and
borough council should see to it that
they are enforced.

Palisade to Have
School Exercises
at Home-Fire Fear

The Fort Lee Board of Education
at a meeting held this week took
occasion to accept the statements
recently published in "The Pail
sadian" about the danger from fire
n the Whitman Street School as
cause for granting the Palisade
school the privilege of holding its
graduating exercises in the Pali-
sade auditorium. The article had
called attention to the great fire
hazard in having large audiences
in the auditorium of the Whitman
street school, there being only one
stairway and no fire escapes. Ac
cepting the facts as presented, a
petition from thirty Palisadians
was sent to the Board of Educa-
ton, asking for the right to hold
the annual exercises in Palisade,
and the Board at once granted the
request.
This is a virtual acceptance of
the statement of facts in connec-
tion with the unsafe conditions
that prevail at the Fort Lee school,
and while many large audiences
might gather there in future with
out accident, at the same time, pre-
cautionary measures are the safest
plan. The Board did not agree to
put in fire escapes, but public senti-
ment is all in favor Of the work
being done at once. and doubtless
the Board will find ways and
means to correct the difficulties
that now face them because of the
unsafe conditions at the Whitman
Street school.

the way back for refreshments and
arrived in Grantwood at 10: Is p. m.

Black AlkaIi.
4. O. b. Flint, Mich

Investigations have been made of the
almost complete loss of fertility Of
from 10000 to $4,000 acres in the San
Luis valley of Colorado, and this con-
dition is attributed to the so-called
'black alkali," composed largely of
sodium carbonate. This carbonate is
carried in the waters of the valley, in
Guiding the rivers and the artesian
wells, and the practice of subirrigation
has brought it to the surface by
capillarity and evaporation. 1t is sug-
gested that the remedy lies in a con-
version of the carbonates into sui
pilates by the use of a liberal amount
of gypsum-about nine pounds of gyp-
sum to one pound of black alkali-
and downward washing by means Of
surface irrigation with burrows or by
flooding.
