A survey of the downstairs showed
Jack Spratt distinctly lacking. He

Usually he begins to make bread
pushing his claws in and out into
the blankets in the peculiar fashion
of the house cat. The look upon {
cats face when performing isis sIHiea

Jacks favorite place is at the foot

"Kempy" to Be Presented
By Community Players

Friday evening, November 6, prom
ises to be a most enjoyable one, full
of fun for the patrons of the Commu-
nifty Players of this vicinity, for the
play, "Kempy," which is to be pre-
sented in Carney Hall, Grantwood, on
that evening is full of humorous come
dy, revolving around the purchase and
sale of home in New Jersey.
The fact that the scene is laid in
our own state and that the young
couple involve themselves in various
laugh provoking situations, including
the dog of the home, should make the
audience large and interested one.
Tickets were placed on sale on Mon
day of this week, allowing, as usual,
the subscribing members first choice
and are now open to the public at 81
each, reserved seats. Mrs. w. E.
Sammis, phone "a ], has charge of the
tickets.
The cast is a fine one, and the fact
that Miss Marjorie Sammis is coach.
ing it is sufficient guarantee that the
performance will show good training.

New Funeral Home
Opened by O'Hara

For the past 4S years, John F.
O'Hara & Son, Funeral Directors,
has been established in Hudson
County, with offices in Hoboken,
West Hoboken and Union Hill. John
F. O'Hara, senior member of the firm,
has the distinction of conducting
more funerals than any other under
taker in this particular line of en-
deavor, whose record show the enor-
nous figures of over 10000 funerals
conducted by him in the vicinity of
Hudson County.
The O'Hara Funeral Home
John F. O'Hara had established the
business in 1878, and is now 72 years
of age and had been in business in
Hoboken, and lived there all his life.
John ]. O'Hara, who is now in part
nership with Mr.. John F., introduced
the automobile funeral in New Jer-
sey which to-day is almost used ex-
c1usively. For years he had operated
motor livery enterprise in New
York and New Jersey, supplying the
requirements Of the funeral trade
with motor hearse and limousines be-
fore they became popular to the ex-
tent they are to-day.
The firms latest addition along the
lines of progress was the institution
of the Funeral Home" at Broadway
and Fourth ST., Union City, N. j., op-
posite the new building of the First
National Bank of Union City. A fu-
neral home of this character is COM
plete in every detail to take care of
the requirements at the time of need,
which is quite essential in these
times when the housing situation is
limited to very small apartments,
and especially when the facilities can
be had without an extra cost with the
additional features, Including an or
gan which has been installed and
adds greatly to the solemnity of the
funeral service.

toward clearing up the West Grant

Herbert &. Olsen
Although a new man in the po-
litical field, Mr.. Olsen is not unknown
to the community. His activity con-
nected with numerous borough pro-
jects, gives him an insight on bor-
ough needs and problems. He helped
to organize the Taxpayers Associ-
alton and has served as it's vice presi-
dent and now it's secretary. He was
one of the organizers of the Parent
Teachers Association. Being en-
gagged in his own lithographing bust
ness gives him the necessary requis-
ties for a business-like councilman.
Mr. Olsen is heartily in favor of the
record of the present administration
and believes in Progress consistent
with economy"
Herbert L. Post
Mr.. Post exemplifies the best in
public officials. He has built a truly
efficient, well organized department
as tax collector. Prior to being tax
collector he was one of Cliffside
Parks most efficient councilmen and
as such he headed the finance com
mittee in a most efficient manner
He has modernized his department
He has opened an Office in the Bor.
ough Hall with regular hours and
evenings. His records are a model
for a collectors office. Through his
efficiency he has saved thousands
upon thousands of dollars for the
borough and our borough is one OF
the first in financial standing in the
county. He has been a resident
taxpayer for II years and he has
rendered service to the public
which is deserving of compensation
by means of the vote of the people

In seeking reelection to the Office

the best administration during the
past two years that it has enjoyed
in the history of the borough. He
was elected two years ago by the
largest majority ever accorded a
local candidate and under his leader
ship, Cliffside Park has progressed
more than during any period in its
existence. He has reduced the tax
rate by 81 points in one year and
will continue to give you good, clean
government.
Mayor Marini is local product,
being educated in the Cliffside Park
High School of which he is gradu-
ate. Besides being a graduate of
Fordham University School of Law,
he is counsel and director of the
