one an opportunity to look over all
the various properties being exploited
and developed as home sites and CIV

cision and bought Gas most of us who
live in Grantwood have) an opportuni-
ty to ascertain if one would do over
again and buy in Grantwood if one
had chance. In the case of the
writer looked over practically every
exhibition in the hall, considered their
claims, such as streets, roads, sewers,
gas, electric lights, restrictions, rapid
transportation to the city, schools,
churches, ETC., and could not but ask
myself what any of them had to offer
that we did not already have? Very
few had all these things as we have,
and those that had were demanding
very high price for their property.
Then, again, l could not but feel that
we had much to make our homes de-
sirable that they all lacked-the beau
tiful view of the Hudson, splendid air,
which it is absolutely impossible to
get in a great many of the marshy
tracts that are being opened for home
sites, and last (and this seems to me
one of our greatest advantages) to be
within four miles of City Hall, New
York city. 1t was great satisfaction
to feel that if had my money in my
hand and the thing to do over again
would buy right here on top of the

The average business man of Pali-

suburban life on Sundays. There
seems to be a wonderful charm to
this day apart from the beauty of all
others. There is benign restfulness
in the seclusion of ones home out
here that can come from no other
cause than that it is in the country,
where nature has smiled her sweetest,
and the air, balm laden with scent of
oak and fallen leaf, refreshes and in
vigorates To sit here in the quietude
of daylight or eventide, or to walk
forth and see the landscapes, beauti-
full in winter as in summer, are in
themselves privilege vouchsafed to
none who dwell within the brick walls
of a crowded city. A Sunday in Pali-
sade is a tonic that invigorates a
mans ambition for the coming weeks

LARGE GANGS AT WORK

(From The PaIisadian, June, 1919
John H. Hunter had under him here
at one time as many as 500 Italians.
They swarmed along the roadways
like SO many hornets and cut down
great swaths through the woods and
banked up wood in cord piles every
where. There was tree cutting, rock
blasting, cellar digging, rock crushing,
the sound of saw and hammer, the
ring of trowel and the thud of the
pick from morning till night. Super
intendent Hunter charged around on
his big horse giving orders like gen.
eral in the saddle, for he had stu
pendous task in the laying out of the
roadways Of Palisade, the putting in
of gas and water mains and the dig
ging of trenches for the costly sewer
system. The main trunk sewer was a
