Big bankers, thousands of them,
gathered in Chicago recently, quite
happy. They sang songs waiting for
the speaking to start, and told each
other, Business is fine" But one lit
tie crumpled rose leaf is in the soft
financial mattress. "There is among
the bankers uncertainty over social un
rest"
Sorry to disturb bankers, but that
uncertainty is a good thing. 1t makes
bankers and other important men
think, and it's about the only thing
that DOES make them think-about
the little people. Who notices mule
that doesn't kick?

ask that question. Clergymen, secure
in their pulpits, like the distinguished
Dean Inge, of st. PauPs, in London,
calmly tell you that one of the great

had epileptic fits. All this isn't new.

Ernest Harder Does
AGood Job on Two
Drunken Fool Men

Five local men, Carl Muller, Ernest
Harder, Albert Troutman, John Kru-
ger and Joseph Bruno, were riding in
Harder's auto on Teaneck road last
Sunday night when they passed two
men who were in the act of placing
planks across the road and putting
stones on top of them.
Harder, thinking some one might
be injured as result of the mems
misbehavior, turned his car back at
the junction of Teaneck road and the
Fort Lee road to investigate. Upon
arriving at the spot the men were
still in the act of rolling the large
stones onto the planks, and when
asked what they were doing they said
that the road was closed Having
just come over the road Harder knew
this was lie, so he forced one of the
men into his car and drove him to the
Teaneck police station and then re-
turned for the other man, whom he
found hiding in the bushes, and took
him to the police station also. Both
seemed to be under the influence of
liquor and were held for trial as sus-
piciouS persons.

MAYOR MARINI URGES ECONOMY
ON The PART OF ALL OFFICIALS TO
AVOID DEFICIT AT END OF THE YEAR
Mayor Also Suggests Having Definite Plan for Storm
Sewers; Dewey and Greenmount Ave- Improvement
Ordinances Pass and Contracts are Awarded-Dr.
Hellstern Says All Dogs Should Be Vaccinated With
Anti-Rabies Serum.

At the meeting of the Mayor and
Council of Cliffside Park, held on last
Monday night, Mayor Marini COM
mented on the Collectors report for
the first half of this year, saying that
most of the appropriations were hold
ing out well, but some were running
very close, and he urged all commit
tee and department heads to be most
economical in order to avoid a deficit
at the end of the year. He explained
that, despite the fact that the Council
Board was spending less money than
last year, the big jump in the School
Board budget had made the tax rate
higher than the previous year.
The Mayor also emphasized the ne
cessity of having a definite plan of
storm sewerage for the borough, so
when the various street improvements
were made it would be known what
was. necessary in the way of storm
sewers to properly care for the drain
age. Councilman Meyer said that
this was most important matter, and
introduced resolution, which was
passed, authorizing the engineers to
prepare such plan.
The Dewey and the Greenmount
avenue improvement ordinances were
passed. The lowest bidder on the
Dewey avenue job was the Bergen
Contracting Company, and they were
awarded the BID for $7,9675O. The
lowest bidder on the Greenmount ave-
nue. job was Frank Battaglia and Sons
of Fairview, and the contract went to
them at $4563.
Two ordinances in connection with
the Lawton avenue Improvement were
introduced. The ordinance for the
road itself is in the alternative, and
when bids are advertised for in the
event OF its passage the contractors
will submit figures on two types of
roads, one a nine-inch REINFORCED
concrete road and the other a road
with six-inch concrete base and
three inches of asphalt over that. In
all probability the most reasonable
construction would be the one chosen.
The ordinances will be given their
first reading at the next regular meet
ing on August II.
A request from the Grantwood- Pali-
sade Real Estate Board, asking that
the Zoning Ordinance be redrafted to
comply with the recent decisions of
the Supreme Court, was referred to
the Building and Grounds Committee,
and they will report at the next meet
ing.
Toward the end of the meeting Dr.
Hellstern suggested that all dogs in
the borough be vaccinated with an
anti-rabbies serum, and the Mayor first

Club Officers
Enjoy Outing

Some of the officers of the Woman's S
Club of Palisade enjoyed days out
ing at the summer bungalow of Mr.
and Mrs. H. Jeltrup at Stony Brook
this week. Those attending were
Mrs. George Clark, Mrs. Hal T. Beans,
Mrs. F. G. Schaefer, Mrs. Mary Tor
rey, Mrs. Charles Bennett and Mrs.
Lester Mapes. Some officers, being
out of town, could not take advantage
of Mrs. Jeltrup's invitation.
The party motored over from Pail
sade in Mrs. Clark's sedan, and each
took some part of the delightful
luncheon that was enjoyed after arriv-
ing at the destination. Mrs. Clark u
expert driving and Mrs. Schaefer' S
clever stories were features of the
trip.
The ladies discussed ways and
means of raising money for the Music
Studio at New Brunswick during the
coming season, and some unique
plans were decided upon. 1t is hoped
that all will cooperate to make the
effort a success.
During the afternoon the group mo-
tored to boys camp about five miles
from Stony Brook, where several Pali'
sade boys are spending the summer
and reaping the benefits that outdoor
life affords. Among the Palisade
boys at the camp are Bobby and Eric
Jeltrup and Dunbar and Allan SPOTS.
The ladies report a most delightful
trip and have much to say in praise
of Stony Point.

CHILDREN MADE HAPPY
BY VACATION SCHOOL
Local Institution a Great Success
and Does Much for Young
SterS Who Attend.

The Daily Vacation Bible School in
the Community Church, connected
with the Italian Mission of the Con
gregational Church, has been doing
splendid work since it's opening, i'm
mediately after the closing of the
borough public schools
That the school meets need is
demonstrated by the average attend
ance of forty-five and the large en-
rollment; in fact these schools are
rapidly increasing in number all over
the coutry each season.
The hours are from until half past
IL o'clock. The opening exercises
consist of Bible reading, verse memo
rizing, and then singing by the chill
dren; and how these children do love
to sing! After a number of hymns
the pastor, Mr.. Gozzo, gives them a
habit talk" and Miss Donaldson tells
them Bible story.
The classes then gather, the boys
in charge of Mr.. Gozzo, the small girls
taught by Mrs. Congiano, the others
by Miss Donaldson, who also super
vises the whole work.
The boys do scroll work, making
wonderful animals and birds and
painting them. They also make horse
reins.
The girls make dolls, cats, rabbits,
paper roses, fancy handkerchiefs,
jumping ropes, and the kindergarten
children make lots OF cute things
clothespin dolls, frames, kites, pin
wheels, etc.
One day in the week is devoted to
an outdoor treat, such as hikes to
nearby woods or day in Woodcliff
Park, but this year, alas! the Inter
state Park was closed to them and
they have not had their usual ride
there which Mr.. Leeger has given
them for the two seasons heretofore.
On Wednesday an exhibit of the
work was held in the church, attend
ed by parents and friends as well as
by those interested from Grantwood.
After the exhibit the children were
allowed to choose the things they
wished to keep, up to a certain num-
ber, and the rest are to be given by
them to still needier children. The
school is closed now for this season.

questioned the wisdom of an ordi-

to have this done because of the ex-
pense. The doctor explained that it
only cost So per dog, and that So was
nothing compared with the life of a

that letter had been received from
the S. P. G. A. advising municipalities
against the use of this serum saying
it had not proven entirely reliable.
The doctor attempted to refute some
of these arguments, and it was finally
decided that the entire matter was

Mr.. Chandless had the following to
say in reference to his candidacy:
81 have decided to seek reelection
to the Assembly again this year be-
cause l believe that the experience
which obtained at Trenton places me
in a position to render greatly in
creased services to the people of our
comfy.
ut goes without saying that the
term of one year allowed member of
the Assembly is entirely too short a
period of time to permit him to give
the best that is in him to the office,
but since this is our Legislative system
il. therefore, becomes necessary for a
first year assemblyman to seek re-elec-
tion if he desires to do his full duty
toward his constituents.
81 think that l can truthfully say
that in the. ten weeks which l spent at
Trenton this year l was at all times a
loyal and consistent supporter of the
principles of our party and faithful to
the trust and confidence reposed in me
by the people of Bergen county. l feel
that l need not be ashamed to run on
my record.
81, therefore, propose to again seek
the support of the Republican voters
of our county, and intend to announce
my candidacy at the next meeting of
