LOST—“Snappy,” a German police
dog, grayish black fur with white
cross on chest, tip of tail white; re-j
ward; lost one week. S. Sappia, 339 i
Palisade avenue, Cliffside, N. J. I
FOUND—In drug store at Palisade j
Junction last Thursday, a dark
brown, short-haired, bobbed tail male
puppy. A bright, dear little fellow.
Telephone 131 Cliffside.
We want to thank most sincerely
the boys who vyere thoughtful enough
to cover and feed the poor old over
loaded horse that came under our no
tice last week. The kindly interest
in the affair—and the horse—makes
us hope they will be our right-hand
men in the Society we hope soon to
form.
London now boasts of a dogs’ club,
with a membership fee of half a sov
ereign. This does not, however, in
clude meals, baths, tips to the at
tendants. Hulf a crown pays for mut
ton chops and milk; a crown pays for
minced chicken; half a sovereign for
a bath, a brushing and for perfumery.
Rugs cover the floors, sofas are ar
ranged around the walls, soft pillows
are scattered about the floors, and
satin-lined wicker baskets are pro
vided for toy breeds.
Let us hope it is located on the sec
ond floor of a building so the many
stray, starving dogs can’t look in.
Whistles fastened to the bodies of
carrier pigeons used by the U. S.
Army in the Canal 54one frighten
hawks that would otherwise destroy
these messengers.
In a Be Kind to Animals Week Pro
gram prepared by Mrs. II. Clay Pres
ton, a Declamation for a I'upll is
worthy of a thought:
“We we repent the pledge to the
flag we promise justice for all, yet we
seldom stop to think that, 'all' includes
those lesser creatures who look to us
for protection.
“Is it justice to overload and heat
man’s faithful servant, the horse?
“Is it justice to abandon or cruelly
treat man’s loyal friend, the dog?
"Is it justice to leave the animals
of the forest to die a death of torture
in the jaws of a steel trap?
“Is it justice to cause unnecessary
suffering to the domestic animals that
give their lives that we may eat?
“Let us take heed( and wlion we re
peat this pledge, ‘Justice for all’—re
member that it includes even the
least of these.”
She further quotes Humane Sayings
of Great Men:
1— —Late President Warren G. Har
ding—“Whether the Creator planned
it so or environment and human com
panionship have made it so, men may
learn richly through the love and
fidelity of a brave and devoted dog.”
2— John J. Pershing—“If every
American child were brought up with
a love for animals and taught that it
is only by kindness that we can really
get to know and claim animals as
friends, I think that the next genera
tion would be far better citizens than
we can claim to be.”
3— Late Senator George G. Vest—‘A
man's dog stands by him in prosperity
and poverty, in health and in sickness.
He will sleep on the cold ground,
when the wintry winds blow and the
snow drives fiercely, if only he may
be nearer his master's side. He will
kiss the hand that has no food to of
fer, he will lick the wounds and sores
that come in encounter with the
roughness of the world. He guards
the sleep of his pauper master as if
he were a prince.”
4— Ex-Governor of Maine, Pervical
B. Baxter—“A boy or girl who is kind'
to animals and birds, learns alscr to
be kind to boys and girls. Nothing is
so mean as cruelty; nothing so tine
and noble as kindness.”
Epitaph to Lord Byron’s Dog:
Visitors to Lord Byron's estate at
Newstead will find a marked monu
ment with the following tribute to his
dog “Boatswain:”
Near This Spot
Are Depostied the Remains of
One That Possessed Beauty, Without
Vanity,
Strength Without Insolence
Courage, Without Ferocity
And All the Virtues of Man, Without
His Vices.
This Praise, Which Would Be
Unmeaning Flattery
If Inscribed Over Human Ashes,
Is But a Just Tribute
To the Memory of Boatswain, a Dog,
Who Was Born In Newfoundland,
May, 1803,
And Died
At Newstead Abbey, November 18,
1808.

A Small Boy Game
—The small boys of Palisade have
organized two ball teams, the Ath

They played on the old Palisade Play
grounds, now doomed to he cut up in
to lots, last Wednesday afternoon.
There was a fair crowd out, including
some little girl rooters. The game
was full of thrills and much enjoyed.
The final score was 28 to 10—some
score, and some game. The Athletics
were winners. As one of the girls,
Eleanor Ochsner, put it, “the victors
were given a complete rally’’ at the
end of the first inning when the score
was several to 0. After the “rally”
Edward Dyer took Wilbur Gaess’
place in the box. At the end of the
fourth inning the score was 14 to 0,
the Athletics leading.
Arthur Saitta pitched six innings
for the Gaess team, and while he had
a toss up something like an old lady,
he nevertheless did pretty good pitch
ing. He retired in favor of Edward
Ginnett. This was the first game of
the season. The Athletic team was
composed of Walter Chapules, John
and Augustus Fallatico, Sarnie Klein,
John Richard, Lester Muth, Thomas
Benedetti, Robert Boive, Salvatore

Don’t worry about coal strikes!
Burn Oil—in an Electrol
EVERY year the old coal
strike bugbear comes
along and coal prices go sky
high.
Isn’t it about time for you to
quit worrying about coal strikes
and coal prices, and to start
enjoying the pleasures of an
Electrol Automatic Oil Burner
instead?
Isn’t it about time to be rid of
coal troubles altogether? You
know the inconvenience which
you have with a coal furnace—
how you have to run up and
down stairs to stoke it and
how unpleasant getting up in
the morning is with the ther
mometer in your bed-room
registering 50°.
An Electrol Automatic Oil
Burner will end all this. No
coal shortage due to strikes...
no high-priced coal to buy...
no tiresome trips to the base
ment to put on coal.... no
ashes .... no getting up in a
cold house in the morning.
With its automatic electric
ignition and 8-day clock ther
mostat control, the Electrol
Automatic Oil Burner is as
near a perfect heating system
as has yet been devised. It
entirely operates itself, main
taining the even, comfortable
temperature which you want
without a noticeable variation.
Come in and let us demon
