PALISADES JULY FOURTH

With the spirit of the Liberty Day
thought uppermost the good people
of Palisade are again about to make
another July a memorable occasion.
With the view of making the spirit of
the occasion one that the children
will enjoy and appreciate, a somewhat
changed program has been arranged,
and there is no doubt a genuine treat
is in store for the little folks as well
as the grownups. There are several
fine and novel things to be presented,
besides the five or six short talks at
the school, each with different view
point on the meaning of patriotism
which is the keynote at all July 4
celebrations. The parade will be bet
ter and larger, the children will turn
out in greater numbers, and automo-
biles will be more numerous. In the
evening the fireworks will finish out
a day of deep interest.
AT the school there will be songs,
and the raising of Old Glory under
peculiarly fehcitous circumstances.
At the fireworks refreshments, ice
cream and cake will be served to all.

Big "Pep" Meeting
Of Alumni July 7

During the past week all members
of the Cliffside Park High School
Alumni Association have received
cards from the associations secre-
tary asking them to be present at the
monster pep" meeting, which will be
held jim the High School on the eve
ming of July at :15 sharp. officers
for the year of 1925 will be nominated
and elected during the course of the
meeting.
However, the election of officers is
minor part of the plans formed by
the committee. An effort is being
made to revive the "old spirit" of the
association. Spirit In general has
been on the decline in the past year.
The laxity of pep may be seen by the
fact that the traditional baseball
struggle between the teams repre-
senting the Varsity and the Alumni
was not played during the past sea
son.
1t is the wish of the present Off,
GERS to imbue new spirit into the
members, especially the incoming
class of 1925.

Fort Lee A. c. Ball
Team Wins Game 9-3

The Fort Lee Athletic Club termi-
mated its losing streak Sunday after
noon last on the Fort Lee A. G.
grounds when it thoroughly trounced
the Harrington Park-Closter aggrega-
tion by the score of 9 to 3.
Fort Lee tied the score in the
seventh inning when Farrell socked a
Texas Lacquer over second base, scor'
ing A. Breyer and Ike Zabriskie. In
the two succeeding cantcs the local
club tailed six runs to Closters' lone
run
The fielding sensation of the con
test proved to be big" Ed Maron, an
18-year-old Palisade youth, who ca
vorted around the hot corner like a
seasoned veteran. Maron displaced
Brown at third in the seventh inning
and exhibited an excellent brand OF
fielding, making two difficult stops in
one inning alone.
Dummy" Lester, the sturdy A. C.
twirler, had the edge on his pitching
adversary, Short, yielding only five
hits to the latter's fourteen.
Dumos, Closter catcher, played we'll
for the losing team.

DON'T FUSS

George McManus, the gifted artist
who draws Bringing Up Father" is
having a lot of fun telling this story:
Two truckmen were snarled up in
the traffic of a busy street. One OF
them, losing his temper, cried out
"Why don't you look where you're
going, you pie-eyed blankety blank
dumbbell" The other smiled sweetly.
you're nice looking too" he replied.
Silly. But funny. The soft answer
turneth away wrath.
The more you think of this story,
and it Is as inconsequential story as
you ever heard, the more merit you
find in it.
What on earth is the sense of get
ting angry if you can possibly avoid
it? Anger, of any kind, upsets your
equilibrium. 1t disarranges the nor
NAL, even functioning of your whole
system. 1t interferes with your di-
gestion, your clear thinking and the
whole working Of your nervous sys-
tenn 1t is very foolish to get angry.
The more angry you become, the
more you suffer. Why not determine
to put anger entirely out of your life?
What makes you angry? Let's
glance over the general list of causes
The stupidity of other people. Their
dishonesty. Their hypocrisy. Their
smallness. Their treachery.
Well, those are all poor qualities.
And if, in the heat of your rage, you
oh "a fnt
reason, the jury will probably acquit
you. But, in the meantime, the wear
and tear on your nervous system will
lead to a bigger deficit than any sat
isfaction that you will ultimately
obtain, will overcome.
There is nothing in getting square"
with people There is nothing in re-
venge. If you are angry, just forget it.
You may say to yourself, But l am
justified in feeling angry"
That is perfectly all right. If you
tell the circumstances to any fair
minded person, he will probably agree
with you. But what of it? AS long
to feel angry, what satisfaction can
you derive from the fact that you
were justified in feeling angry?
Sometimes, when you suffer from
severe headache, you know what
caused it. But that does not relieve
the headache.
1t really pays to make strong ef-
fort to forget the cause of your anger.
1t is worth while, in every way, to
cultivate smiling outlook upon life.
OF course, you may nurse your anger
and, ultimately, "get square" with the
person who caused it. But if you stop
to figure how much damage the
nursing of your anger has done to
you, you may possibly think of the
remarks of the ancient Roman COM
mander, after the battle:
Another such victory and we are
lost"

CAUSES OF FAILURE

w. G. Sibley in the Chicago Journal
of Commerce pictures the typical fail
ure as the man of 81 out of work, out
of funds, with white hair and beard,
dark, sunken eyes and bony face, con-
templating suicide. He claims that
while Incidence, drink and disease
have worn out many of them, there
are also respectable failures, men
who are striving in vain to secure
comfort while living decently.
These are of sanguine tempera-
ment, hopeful, confident and optimis-
tic to the last. But with these admir-
able qualities has gone either the in
ability to save, lack of foresight, igno-
rance of the value of time, or, to get
to the fundamental cause of failure,
inability to apply sound business prin-
ciples to their personal affairs.
Such failures, Mr.. Sibley points
out, are reflections on our educational
system for youth, which gives scant
attention to saving, accumulation,
thrift and wise investment, all of
which might be inculcated to the
enormous benefit of each rising gem

Miss Ethel Smith, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Smith, of Day ave-
nue., West Grantwood, became the

on Tuesday evening at pretty we'd
ding solemnized at the Trinity Episco-
pal Church, Rev. Floyd S. Leach

The bride entered the church on the

Mo-, formerly of Woodcliff, an inti-
mate friend of the bride, acted as

Amateur Movie Show

A group of young boys and girls of
Grantwood gave a motion picture
show in the garage of one of its men,
bers, Arthur Reichel, Knox avenue.
The garage was decorated with crepe
paper.
The managers were Master Arthur
and Walter Reichel. Collector of
tickets was Frank Alexander.
After the show the young folks en-
joyed refreshments, which were
served on the lawn. The next show
will be held at the home of Selma

cents a bushel, and cattle ranged
from III to Az cents pound.
The best grade of homemade apple
brandy sold for 65 cents, the CORE
spondent declares.
Then the letter leaves statistics and
becomes general. "The young men
and young ladies rode horseback" the
old Virginian writes. "The ladies rode
sidewise and had long black riding
skirts that came to the horses knees
instead of up to the girls knees. One
of my first sweethearts was a gay
young girl from New York, and she
shocked the modesty of the entire
county with her blue riding shirt with
pants to match. But it was modest
and decent outfit, and she rode side
saddle. And another city girl of mine
said she rode otherwise across the
Big Walkers Creek for fear she'd fall
off otherwise meant astride, but
she was too modest to use the word"
1t is possible to prove anything to
an agreeable audience, and it is i'm
possible to prove anything to hos
tile one.
1t may be the merest coincidence,
for instance, that when brandy sold
for SIS cents gallon the girls were
too modest to mention a table leg.
A person Of violent prejudices and
no logic could reason it out as fol-
lows: When brandy sold at 65 cents
gallon the women were modest and
decent. With moonshine selling at
$15 gallon our women are neither.
Therefore cheap brandy means high
order of womanhood and high brandy
means cheap women.
We don't advance any such argu-
ment and yet it is not wholly inde-
fensible, if we follow the fallacious
reasoning of this Virginia gentleman.
No one will argue that a reputable
sheik would bring the fiapper of his
heart a pint of liquid which cost
about cents. And no one will deny
that before bad corn liquor became SO
costly the sporty young man bought
his sweetheart a banana split or some
other concoction which cost 20 or rs
cents.
Perhaps, after all, a readjustment
of values is what we most need.

THRoTTLING BUSINESS

Proposing that Congress be asked
government commission to take over
the various department stores of the
country and revise downward the
prices for shoes, clothes, house fur
nishings, drugs and notions and put
ting up the prices on lip-sticks, tai
cum and perfumery, the New York
Commercial remarks that everybody
buys the things mentioned and that
almost everybody would be pleased to
see prices ON staple goods lowered.
1t also says that the department store
proprietors would make an awful fuss
about such a proceeding, but adds
"such results are supposed to be
wholesome and good for business and
the public in general" The newspa-
per goes on to say:
"Why do we make the foregoing,
apparently silly proposal, and why do
we believe that the outcome of such
a procedure would be beneficial?
.Well, there is before Congress the
so-called Hoch-Smith railroad rate re-
railroad business what we have pro-
posed for the department stores.
Those who champion 1t say that 1t
will bless the public and not hurt the
railroads in the least. 1t would sim
ply lower the transportation rates
and cut down the revenues of the
railroads. of course, but the carriers
would not mind in the least, because
they have had that sort of thing done
to them so often that they have be-
come used to it--or at least that is
the theory.
"When will the people of this coun-
try awake to the plans that are con-
stantly being made to upset business?
To monkey with railroad freight rates
will merely serve to cripple the buy
ing and borrowing power of the rail-
roads, which are spending billion
dollars a year for materials that they
must have. Stop that buying and
hard times will descend upon every
body. Hurt the railroads and every
body is injured"
There can be no denying the truth
of the statements made by the COM
mercial The Hoch-Smith resolution,
which is expected to come up before
Congress early in the next session, Is
a proposition to upset the railroad
rate structure. There is certainty
that no reductions can be made With
out adding to other rates, for the rail-
roads are not yet making even falr
margin in earnings over expenses.
The records show wonderful ad'
vance along the line of efficiency and
economy in operation-but the thou
sands of stockholders who make the
roads possible get less than is earn
ed in almost any other industry.
Incidentally, the railroads provide
work for hundreds of thousands OF
American citizens, pay more in taxes
to the various states through which
their lines pass than is paid to stock
holders and steadily endeavor to Inn
prove service and assist in building
up industry and commerce through
out the United States.

the resolution voted on by the people
on April 30, 1924. The vote of the
board was as follows: Yea-Deitrich,
Everett, Mileham, Nagel, Velsey, DR.,
Schmidt and Akin. Nay-Goemann.
mo further action in regard to
school facilities was taken until Feb
ruary 26, 1925, eleven months later.
At this time l again asked the same
questions about the price and the
owners of the land and again received
no satisfactory answer.
"The board voted this time unani-
mously and accepted the resolution to
buy this land. The date for vote
by the people was set for April 13,
1925.
"On April 8, 1925, then being
member of the board, the resolution
to be voted on April 13, 1925, was re-
scinded. The reason: One of the poll
ing places was illegal, as every poll
ing place must be in school of this
borough.
cat this same meeting resolution
in place of the one rescinded was
passed which differed only in that it
did not include the fourth polling
place and also stipulated that the
price of the land, including the ex-
pense, should not exceed $4,000.
81 called the attention of the board
that it would be advisable to have the
three newly appointed members pres
ent to decide ON such an important
question. l was overruled.
at was not until the building and
grounds committee was instructed to
make satisfactory arrangements and
report at the next meeting, on June
18, 1925, that I investigated.
knowing that it is illegal for a
member of the board who should be
directly or indirectly benefited to vote
on a resolution of this kind, I chal-
lenged the legality of the same. .
upon investigation / found some
of the property in question belonged
to Francis A. Banville and Kathryn,
his wife, since August l, 1928. This
information was obtained on June 16,
1925, two days before the meeting of
June IS, 1925. In order to verify this
information the clerk at the office of
the county clerk recommended that ]
obtain a certified copy of the deed.
with this information at the meet
ing of June 18, 1925, made motion
to instruct the district clerk to obtain
certified copy of the deed. This
motion was not seconded. In place
of my motion the attorney was in
structed to investigate this matter
and report at the special meeting OF
June 80, 1925.
"This action is taken only to avoid
any possibility of future trouble in the
way of legality of the resolution.
Another point l wish to call to
your attention is the fact that when
the wind is coming from the east
there is a prevailing odor in the at
which, 1 believe, is injur'
ious to the health of any children
who would be housed in school on
this site. l recommend that this mat
ter be turned over to the Board OF
Health and that the Board of Educa-
tion be guided by their findings be-
fore they accept this plot of ground
for school purposes.
'I also recommend that the build
ings and grounds committee be in
to get information regarding
the ground adjoining School No. in

ROAD MEETING TO BE
CALLED AT KINGMAN

AS announced in last weeks issue
of the Miner a meeting Of the busl-
ness men of Kingman was held in the
directors room of the Arizona Cen
trail bank last Tuesday evening to con-
slider the advisability of calling a
meeting of representatives of other
towns along the Old Trails road be-
tween Albuquerque and San Bernar-
dino to consider an association for the
increasing travel over this road.
AS an outgrowth of the meeting a
committee consisting of Judge L. V.
Root, Willis Black and Tom Devine
was appointed to send out call to
these towns and to arrange for a
meeting here October 6.
Towns along this portion of the
National Old Trails road have mutual
problems concerning traffic, and by
organization better results can be
gotten without doubt. This portion
of the route is replete with scenic
wonders that should be a magnet to
attract all tourists coming west. The
road is better than in many portions
of the country and without doubt the
National Old Trails road is the best
all year-around transcontinental route.
The Mohave desert, which in reality IS
not a desert in the sense of the ter
rible deserts written of in song and
prose, is instead dotted with garages
and service stations to care for the
wants Of the tourist and water is
available at short intervals, contrary
to the belief of many To properly
put the true status of this portion of
the route especially before the travel
ing public as well as to boost the en-
tire National Old Trails route will be
the object of the proposed organiza-
ton. This will be done to offset rank
mis-statements that are being made
by others.-Kingman Miner.
