Tt Is with unusual pleasure that
"The Palisadian" chronicles this week
the possession of the finest collection
of Chinese art in the world the pos
session of a Palisade resident, Gustav
Feuerbach. Mr.. Feuerbach being in
the importing business of Oriental
products, after spending twenty years
in China, has naturally become pos
sessed of first hand knowledge OF the
meaning of Oriental art, and part1cu-
Iarly those works of the Chinese race
that have made the country famous.
Mr.. Feuerbach has in his several col
lections some rare pieces, including
ceramic art of wonderful design, and
of an execution that almost literally
staggers belief. Tiny perfume bottles,
not over two inches high, an inch
wide and a quarter of an inch thick,
contain miniature pictures of land
scapes, figures, mountains, trees, rlv-
ers, roadways, faces, etc.-these mar
vels of art puzzle the beholder beyond
measure. But they are scarcely more
wonderful than the picturesque wood
carvings, the imperial vases, the
dragon bronzes and other things, in
cluding exquisite paintings on silk, IN
this bewildering collection-bewilder-
ing because the world does not know
it's counterpart, and because its beau
ty is so enhancing.

Communicated ;

To the Editor of the Palisadian:
Apropos of your article entitled
"Back to Nature"-I wish to correct
few seeming misstatements.
In the first place it is not exactly
new. Rousseau decried the evils of
over-refinements and 1uxuries and
hypocricies of the then civilized
France which helped to bring on the
French Revolution. In Germany this
movement (now several years old) is
revolt-against the bureaucratic sys
tenn of Junkers, defense against a
possible return of the Hohenzollern
type of stratified civilization. Is that
to be sneered at?
Does the editor pretend to contest
the findings of medical science in re-
gard to the value of the suns direct
rays on the human body. 1t has been
proved to cure ricketts, and other bone
and blood diseases. It does not neces-
state for us to adopt the methods of
the gorilla if we initiate his walk
which is far more springy and grace
full than that of numbers of people.
The murders of the jungle? Is the
Bowery much safer? In the same
edition you state 1--WE are the most
lawless nation in the world" l
should say then that we fall slightly
short of the much desired sentiment
crystallized in the injunction to do
unto others" etc.
And although none of us would
want to live in the jungle-in an un-
civilized world-at the same time let
US not be too proud of our produce
tions-let us not shut our eyes to the
deficiencies thereof. Nature has
much to teach us-far, far more than
our pedagogues. Shakespeare is to
our credit-but l wonder whether his
possible descendants whose loved
ones were scattered by bombs thrown
from aeroplanes would agree that
these manifestations of civilization
are among the blessings! Why scorn
the few simplicities that make for
healthier lives. Without them the
growth of mind and spirit are help
less. 1t is a revolt against the over
paddings of the hypocricies and bes-
tialites of civilized lives.

FINE BERGEN BOYS

Always it is pleasing to hear of the
accomplishments of Bergen County
boy or girl students in the various
colleges, either in athletics or in the
class rooms.
Bollerman and O'Shea, two of the
best all-around athlets ever produced
in the Hackensack High School,
members of the basketball team that
broke the winning streak of the world
famous Passaic Five, are already do.
ing well in the colleges to which they
recently went.
Nick Borelli, the former Cliffside
Park idol, is starring as halfback
on the Muhlenberg eleven, and from
Brown University comes word that
Charles E. Dixon of Rutherford has
been elected president of the senior
class and is rated as one of the stars
on the football team.-Hackensack
Record.
And there's Alfred Pennell, of Pali-
sade, at Yale. If he doesn't make the
baseball team he will disappoint his
many friends. He will, no doubt, take
high rank in his studies.

ond and fourth Wednesday of the

brary. Winifred Lenihan, director

NEW LIFE FOR HlLLT p
BOROUGHS

Now that the election is no more
than a passing memory, the electorate
has settled down to await the passing
months until the next time when the
same thing will come around again.
AS a matter of record it is no more
than just to say that no election in
recent years locally has been the
cause of fewer recriminations and bit
terness than the one of this year.
There was certain lack of mud
singing in most of the contests ex-
cept in Fairview where a useless
waste of words and abuse reacted Just
about as was expected. These politi-
cal spasms are generally their own
undoing, and happily in Fairview the
result most desired was attained.
Taking it all in all, Fort Lee, Cliff
side, Edgewater, Fairview and Engle-
wood Cliffs can now move along to-
ward the consummation Of many de-
sired goals. The coming few years
should be pregnant with activities
and fine public undertakings. The
coming Mackay bridge over the Hud-
son is the greatest incentive to high
ideal government for this whole sec
tion that has ever existed. Improve
ments by the bushel will be required
to meet the increased population, in
creased homes, and better roadways
everywhere. 1t would be a godsend
to the taxpayer if he could be assured
of righteous handling of public funds
always, with an endeavor to get re-
suits that could never be questioned
The "Closed Specifications" system
that has prevailed in some sections
should never come into the Hilltop
section. The opportunity for better
government is up to the present group
of administrations as never before.

TRUTH
Is Also Found in the
Frank Confession of Error.

Through a printers mistake in last
weeks Palisadian, the review of the
Community Players play, "Kempy,"
reported the curtain rising promptly
at $40 p. m, instead of at 40 p. M.
which has always been the time since
it's beginning, also Mrs. Vosburgh was
named as director of the play, line
being omitted which gave Miss Mar
jorie Sammis credit as the coach and
to her direction all the credit of the
excellent performance should be given,
credit especially merited because of
her serious illness the whole week be-
fore the performance, during which,
in spite of a physicians warning she
came out to attend to her duties.

sENTlM EMIT

It was Lamartine who said that
Sentiment Is the poetry of the imag-
nation" II 1t were not for sentiment
this would be a poor sort of world
Every people, every race of mankind
is possessed of it's own form of senti-
ment. All of the worlds great wars
have been based more on sentiment
than upon actual cause for grievance.
Sentiment is the fountain source of
patriotism. A minister once stood in
the Palisade pulpit and vouchsafed
to express his Americanism in these
words: 81 hate German and all
forms of autocracy. But it is no more
than just in passing to say, All honor
to Germany if she surpass her op-
ponents in patriotism That was
a strange speech and in poor taste at
the time as an expression of Ameri-
canism, but it was a fine tribute to
the patriotism of Germany. Yet it Is
a question If German patriotism ex-
celled in its intensity that of France,
or England or America. America
went into the war actually without
grievance, save that most precious
thing called a nations sentiment. Sen
timent has led men to lay down their
lives in defense of that intangible
something we call sentiment. And
yet is not sentiment the fulfilment of
mans loftiest ideals? Does it not inn
pei more men to noble achievement
than any other force of the imagina-
tion? For this reason "all of mans
felicity is lodged in the soul and not
in the flesh," as Seneca said. No gov.
ernment is safe that is not based on
the good will of the people who thrive
on sentiment unconsciously. The very
keystone of our national faith is seuti-
ment. AS beautiful tribute as was
ever penned to the sentiment of pa
triotism comes from Bulwer-Lytton,
who said: Patriotism is a safer prin-
ciple, both for state and the human
race, than philanthropy. Sancho Pan
"a, administering his island, is bet
ter model than Don Quixote sallying
forth to fight the wrongs of the uni
verse" You who love, who admire,
who strive, who aspire, know that the
guiding power behind achievement is
sentiment, the basis Of our cares, our
joys, our feeling-all that we are or
hope to be-thats sentiment. And,
after all, what prouder boast was ever
put into language than Pope's thrill
"Who dare to love their country and

John A. Dix, "If anyone attempts to
haul down the American flag shoot
him on the spot?" Sentiment is the
impulse that has led all warriors, all
lovers, all statesmen. 1t makes truer
men and better women, and there is
no affinity dearer than human hope
built on a foundation of sentiment
that is pure, mans loftiest attribute
beyond question.

Science Is Never Idle

Science has done great things for
humanity because science is never
idle. Almost every day we learn of
something that will revolutionize
methods in the field of activity to
which it is applied Scientific re-
search is never marking time.

some day through broadcasting Of
