A Christmas Memory

On Christmas eve, in days of long ago,
A candle tall my mother used to
light;
She'd cross herself, then on her knees
she'd go,
In silent contemp plation of the night;
The candle bravely burned until the
morn,
And ushered In the glorious day
again,
When the sweet Babe of Bethlehem
was born,
While angels sang of peace, good
will to men.
oh, what a perfect faith my mother
knew!
1t burned just like candle, to the
end,
A beacon light 1T was her whole life
through.
1t was her consolation and her
friend;
It's Christmas Eve once more, and as
! stand,
To light, as oft she did, a candle
bright,
A mystic presence seems to guide my
hand,
And l know that my mothers near
tonight.

Ridgefeld Park, N. j.

THAT CRIME WAVE

DR.. Henry j. Gahagan, director of
the Elgin State Hospital, says that
parents are to blame for the present
crime wave. This is no doubt true;
IL there were no parents there would
be no criminals.
1t seems, according to Dr. Gahagan,
that nowadays children have too
many parents. He advocates fewer
and better fathers and mothers.
Today men and women are so busy
getting married every now and then
that they haven't time to keep a
watchful eye on their offspring. Step
fathers and stepmothers are the order
of the day. And this, it appears, is a
step in the wrong direction as far as
the children are concerned.
The children are brought up with
feeling of uncertainty. They just get
used to one papa when new one
blows in and they have to start all
over again. And it's hard for them to
get used to all the different names.
One little boy has solved the prob
lem by calling all his new fathers
George"
The result of all this chaos is that
the youths turn to crime. No one is
teaching the young idea how to shoot,
and SO he buys gun and tries to
learn by himself.
This is obviously unfair to the regu-
lar crooks. When their boys grow up
and start in business with their
fathers they find all the criminal pro-
fessions cluttered up with these inter-
lopers.

CRYSTAL LAKE IN
FORT LEE TO Be SOLD
TO HIGHEST BIDDER
Borough "White Elephant" Cost
$4,000 Brought Revenue
Into Public Treasury When
Rented as Skating Rink.

Who wants to buy a lake? Fort
Lee has one for sale to the highest
bidder. 1t is situated between Fort
Lee and Leonia, and of no use for
municipal purposes.
The property in question has been
white elephant to the Borough of
Fort Lee since its acquisition some
years ago, a costly liability.
The lake cost the municipality
$4,000 when purchased, and as much
to maintain it since then.
1t was originally used as an ice
plant. When it was found that Fort
Lee sewerage was seeping into the
waters, ice cutting stopped, Leonia
officials learned that the water was
polluted, suit was instigated against
Fort Lee for 100000 and was re-
peated yearly. Finally to settle the
matter, Fort Lee purchased the lake
A few years ago, the lake was leased
as a skating pond during the winter
at rental said to be S35 per month.
A check room and lunch counter were
erected and the tenants made COM
Portable profit during the skating sea-
son. The lease however, runs out
within the next year, and the tenants
are anxious to have it renewed Fort
Lee does not want to renew the lease,
but wants to sell out the property.

THE CHRISTMAS CARD

The Christmas card has come to
stay. Since it's first appearance in it's
present form and numbers it has
grown in popular favor until at pres
ent it has become a great industry II
every part of the world. These silent
messengers of cheer and good will
serve as neighborly and friendly evil
dences from those to whom we need
not offer gifts in return but send an
other card in kind. The Christmas
card lists have grown to such huge
proportions that the postal system is
taxed to the utmost in handling their
huge bulk. Recent years have seen
Christmas cards enlarge upon them
selves with almost maddening num-
bers.
Yet withal the custom is beautiful
one. 1t offers opportunity to send
along good wish to all ones friends
and acquaintances without excessive
cash. The Christmas card brings back
ones recollections of an early Ameri
can writer on sentiment, "Ik Marvel"
who was Donald G. Mitchell of New
England. 1t was he who idealiZed let
ters when he wrote chapter on them
and said: Letters! Blessed be let
tersi They are the only true heart
throbs!" So with the Christmas card.
They symbolic the very best feeling,
the highest thought and the tenderest
emotion A Christmas card speaks

Present Gold Medal
To Sheriff Nimmo

near future.
At the Elks' home, Ridgewood, last
Thursday evening Sheriff George P.
Nimmo was rendered a plimentary
dinner, at which he was presented
with a handsome solid gold, diamond
studded, badge of Office by number
of his friends, who predicted a sue
cessful official career.
Nearly 400 friends of both political
parties were assembled, which was
one of the finest testimonials ever ten
dered county official.
The badge was presented by Toast
master Kinzley with appropriate re-
marks. Sheriff Nimmo responded,
and during his remarks he pointed to
his father and said, This is the man
who, by living the life he did, made it
possible for me to be honored here to-
night"
During the festivities the toastmas-
ter read kilograms of congratulations
from Senator William B. Mackay,
Congressman Randolph Perkins, for
mer Sheriff George Brewster, former
Judge Cornelius Doremus, George
Tillotson. Assemblyman Orison M
Hurd and James H. White.
Under Sheriff John A. w. Donaldson
was also the recipient of a gold badge
of office from Sheriff Nimmo as a per.
sonal gift.

BREAKING WITH THE PAST

A prominent periodical advertises
widely that it I'has broken with the
past" One wonders if its manager,
in sanctioning that advertisement,
really meant what the words say.
And if he did really mean it. one won
ders if he correctly understands the
situation. We may see many great
institutions, of many kinds, which
seem on the surface to be radically
different from what they were in the
days of their humber beginning. And
still, if they are sound and firmly
established in their later greatness,
an examination will ordinarily show
that they have not broken off from
their past. but have developed out of
ii. A human institution is not
strengthened, any more than a tree
would be strengthened, by breaking
off the tap root that has been supply
ing it with vitality ever since its be-
ginning, Where human institutions
seem to have been treated in that
way, the truth more often is that one
institution has died and another has
crept into its dress and assumed its
name A man. amagazine or news
paper, or a human institution of al
most any kind may break entirely
away from some incidental feature of
its past; but TO break from the past
in the complete and unqualified mean
ing of the expression is little less
than a human impossibility.

Jersey Communities
Combine to Observe
Wilson's Birthday

Three New Jersey communities
Trenton, Princeton and Camden-will
combine to celebrate Woodrow Will
sons birthday on December % at a
mass meeting in Trenton, as part of
the nationwide chain of 800 celebra-
tions which will be held that day. The
Trenton ceremonies will be in the
Assembly Hall of the State House.
Preparation for the nationwide chain
of dinners has been under way for
months, in response to requests from
many states for an adequate and fit
ting celebration of Mr.. Wilson's 69th
anniversary. A few communities will
hold meetings in lieu of dinner, as
in the case of New Jersey, but at all of
them the speakers will pay tribute to
the Wilsonian ideals and achieve
ments in the establishment of a
groundwork for world peace.
A dinner in New York will be held
at the Hotel Astor, at which the
speakers will be DR.. Harry A. Gar
field, president of Williams College;
the Rev. Robert Norwood, rector of
st. Bartholomew Church, New York;
and Ignace Jan Paderewski. Mr..
Paderewskis appearance will be the
first occasion on which he has paid
formal tribute to the man with whom
he workedsso closely in Paris in the
days when he had renounced the
piano for craftsmanship. He will de-
liver a eulogy on Mr. Wilson.

THE HOLIDAYS SEASON

No season in the American routine
is as much filed with speculation,
resolution and preparation as the
Christmas holidays which embrace the
last week of the year. 1t is time for
speculation because people think of
what the next year may bring. 1t is a
period of resolution, because every
body takes stock of their condition and
resolves to better it. if possible And
it is a moment of preparation, because
earnest people such as we have in
America, take enough thought for the
coming year, for looking at realities
and forming plans for continuation
of old ideals and forming new ones.
Taken as a whole, the American holi-
day season is noble institution, since
II Is time for good will, for gifts and
for peaceful relations with humanity.
OF course, Christmas comes every
where but in no land is so much made
of it as here. 1t increases our self
respect, encourages our self-control
and adds to our self-consciousness
America is proud though not vain
nation These holiday seasons are
balancing in their general touch, for
they even up many trial and level off
many a score. They wipe away tears
and scars, too; make us love more and
hate less, and cast halo upon our
lives like benediction. All hail the
holiday season!

S. P. C. A. to Get
State Aid Through
Sen. w. B. Mackay

Senator William B. Mackay. presi-
dent of the Bergen County S. P. c. A.,
stated that the society had decided to
seek financial support through the
Legislature.
A bill will be introduced at the COM
ing session which will seek division
of the fees taken in by communities
for dog licenses.
A percentage, not yet decided upon,
will be asked of each municipality.
"In the past" said the senator, the
work of the society has been carried
on with funds obtained from member
ships. The amount obtained yearly
has not been sufficient.
every week the society receives
calls from various municipalities to in
vestigate cruelty cases and to care
for animals and while every effort
has been made to care for these cases
it has been impossible to do so with
any system as the funds at hand did
not allow of it.
"The society needs an animal shell
ter and someone to care for it.
"If we could obtain part of the
money taken in by the communities
in the county from the sale of licenses
it would make it possible for the so,
ciety to accomplish good results.
Hackensack Record.
Henrietta D. Reynolds of Palisade,
who has been an active member OF
the S. P. C. A. for years, said this
week:
"The S. P. c. A. in Bergen county
is to be congratulated upon having at
it's head so valuable man as Senator
William B. Mackay. He is the right
man in the right place and his man
agement of our meetings has been
ideal. The subject OF securing state
aid was discussed al Hur last meeting
and his statement this week OF put
ting through bill a the next session
of the Legislature to that effect places
the Bergen County S. P. c. A. on a
workable and sane footing. There is
no more humane work that l know
than helping in the care of dumb ami
mails, a contribution to mankind for
his protection as well as pleasure
from the Maker"

FRANCE

How many people of this frustrated
world of ours are tolerant OF opinion,
of view and feeling? Tolerance knows
no higher virtue, yet how few know
enough of it's full meaning to stop and
think when they hear or see some
thing they do not like? Tolerance is
easy enough to hear about and, some
thing we sometimes persuade our
selves that we practice. But how few
of us do The most completely lacking
in any of our viewpoints is tolerance
on religious opinions. The Protestants
have no excuse for Catholics, the
Methodists, the Baptist, all are alike
in complete Indifference to other re-
ligions. AS matter of fact intoler-
ance among the religious bodies of
the world-that is, the Protestants
and Catholics. have practically the
same faith, but different creeds So
why should there be intolerance? Yet
there have been more religious wars
than any other type. Why? Intoler-
ance!
And this is one of the strangest
facts in all human relationship. Why
should one religion hate another?
The Mohammedans do not tolerate
Buddha. and ignore Conficius After
all, we have to recognize the fact that
the human complex is as queer as it
is exasperating. Just how to equalize
consideration TO an equitable balance
is mystery. Perhaps Adam was the
direct cause of the whole living mess.
He tempted Eve with the apple, and
she fell for it. From then to now
humanity has been in a stew. Re-
ljgion is akin to politics in its enmi-
ties and its unforgiving attitude to-
wards all opposing theory, dogma or
practice. Men are intolerant OF their
neighbors because they have children
and dogs. A politician hates an op-
ponent like he does the innermost
depths of Hades. And so the world
wags-it goes ahead crucifying itself
upon crown Of thorns, and makes
