I»27 NEWSPAPERS AJL A~ SELLING Newspaper advertising will sell anything that has merit. That is what the Westinghouse Electric Company tells the wide, wide world in its sweep ing policy, recently adopted, of using newspapers for practically all the ad vertising done by the company. In the past the Westinghouse com pany has used newspapers only foi selling household electric equipments; NOW it will use newspapers for mar keting ALL its products, street light ing equipment, industrial motors transportation appartus—E VERY THING. The Westinghouse company is not experimenting, that company has beer .'advertising in newspapers since 1886; it KNOWS what advertising can do. J. C. McQuiston says newspapers can both “nationalize” and “localize’ advertising campaigns, and then scope is without limit.—Hudson Dis patch. Phillips Brooks, the great evangel said this of action: “Newton s grea generalization, which he called thi ^Uiirrl law of motion,’ was that Ac third law 01 mwuw.i, — < tion and reaction are always equal t< each other;” and that law has bee. one of the most pregnant of all truth, about the mystery of force,—one ol the brightest windows through wh.cl modern eyes have looked into th« world of Nature.” A PRAYER FOR FRIENDS Purge out of every heart the lurking grudge. Give us grace and strength to for bear and to persevere. Offenders, give ui the grace to accept and to forgive offenders Forgetful ourselves, help us to bear clieci • fully the ' forgetfulness of others. Give in courage and gaiety and the quiet mind Spare to uo our friends, soften to us oui enemies. Bless us. if it may be. in all oui innocent endeavors. If it may not. give ui strength to encounter that which Is to come that we may be bravo in peril, constant ir tribulation, temperate in wrath, and in al changes of fortune, and down to the gates of death, loyal ami loving one to another _Robert Louis Stevenson. The above beautiful prayer by Ro bert Louis Stevenson is ideal. We find it reproduced in the local church • bulletin quite appropriately quoted, loo. If only we could practice what we preach! Here we finjl a pretty, well-ordered village church rent and ruptured by an unwarranted schism because a group of people led by a youngster of a preacher who is un willing to heal the breech in the con gregation; who has never done any thing to heal it, and who apparently goes out of his way to open the gap ing wound all the wider. It is appropriate here to quote, since quoting is in order, the meaning of a schism, as defined in the Stan dard Dictionary: “A division, or splitting up of a church into factions or other opposing bodies because of differences on ques tions of belief or administration.” There was once a young minister in this town who said the Christian reli gion was a failure. So it is in the fashion of its practice by some people. It never pays to put one’s self in the “holier than thou” class, or to imply that “nobody has any sense but us”— a good title for a song, by the way. America is rising with a giant s strength. Its bones arc yet but cart ilages.—Fisher Ames. INTERROGATION I’OINT HONESTY "Honesty is not only refraining from seis ing things that do not belong to one. but refraining from telling lien. Honesty is integrity end uincerity. It la putting one's nelf wholly into one's woilt. It in the utter ance of the truth not only by one’s lips but also by the honest use of one's hands." —McConnell's “Public Opinion and Theolo gy." Another quotation in the local church bulletin. “Honesty is integ rity and sincerity.” True enough, but it loses its full force where one sets up this definition for others to BILL BOOSTER SAYS: © OSSlP-PEDOLERS g-et wo EIJCOURAGEMEUT FROM ME« \ WJOWT LISTEU TO THEM* WHAT THEX TELL IS USUALLX FALSE, BUT VJERE IT ALL TRUE, STILL I WOULDWT LISTED, BECAUSE THE TROUBLES OF AAVFRIEUDS ARE THEIR OWW AFFAIR AMD [ TAKE WO UWHEALTHV MORBID SATISFACTIOW IW AUX SUfiW REPORTS. G*iRc>E shoot at without practicing it them selves. Evasion is an inexcusable as a “white lie.” Parading mottoes of vir tue is of no value unless one practice virtue. And prating of honesty is of no consequence whatever unless one lives it. Get that. The most repre hensible form of dishonesty is selfish ness. And that is brutal. A dog nev er wants to divide a bone. Why spend $25 a minute trying to telephone to England? You can get all the wrong numbers you want right here at home, and for a very nominal charge. INTELLECTUAL SCHOOL TRAINING INTELLECTUAL SCHOOL TEACH One of the fallacies of the modern processes of education is the idea pre vailing in the minds of many educa tors that schools are for the purpose of increasing intellectual prowess. A case in point is the late statement of Dr. Henry Suzzalo, recently deposed president of the university of Wash ington. He told the school teachers ol Oregon in a public address that the school as an institution is “pre-emin ently devised to deal yvith intellectual things.” True enough as far as it goes, yet the school teacher cannot stop with the merely intellectual and leave the moral side of human nature out of consideration. Just intellectual development with j no consideration for moral training . cannot carry far. The public expects ' to get back from the school other di 1 vidends besides merely intellectual I training. No school teacher can hope ■to attain those heights for which hit training fits him, if he think merely in intellectual terms. Unless he makf himself an example of good morals ht is unfit to teach anything and should not be tolerated. Surely Dr. Suzzak deserved to be dismissed from the Washington University if his ideals did not lead him to higher aims than the merely intellectual. And furthermore, schools cannot throw off the responsibility that the home and church are the moral agents that should train the youth’s moral nature. The teacher should be the one great moral uplift behind every child in school to make him dare to do right and to have hope for a higher moral plane on which to pitch his life. The teacher’s responsibility extends far and away beyond the text book. It must do even more than parental in fluence to develop character, the very essence of proper form of education, and without which learning falls to the ground as unworthy. And further more, moral teaching in schools should not be merely a formal part of the curriculum. The teacher who does not make character and personality above everything else is not reaching out to life’s essence. ' What is resignation? It is putting God between oneself and one’s grief. —Madame Swetchine. NO NON DE PLUMES The uses to which people attempt to put unsigned opinions in the press is sometimes remarkable. liut the methods of conducting newspapers has undergone a marked change in this respect. The Palisadian has been forced to cast aside some really mer itorious articles that have been sub mitted for publication without names attached. For the information of these writ ers it is well to announce that this newspaper will not print any unsigned communication from any one, no mat ter what the subject. This is done in all good faith, but the responsibility of the author must be assumed—this is not merely done in fairness hut simple justice as well. If you have something interesting to say, the Pal isadian will be glad to publish your communication if it is within the bounds of decorum and reasonable in .pace limits. , But if it is worth saying it must (be said over your own name. The non jde plume, the pseudonym, the ficti tious name, are no longer accepted in newspaper ofliccs. I DOUGHERTY’S "GUILTLESS” VERDICT Harry M. Dougherty is a free man today through no evidence that he was not guilty as charged in his recent trial in New York. The jury that; tried him stood ten for guilty, two for acquittal, and these two turned him loose because a verdict to con demn must be unanimous. This is one of the inequalities of the law, un happily for justice. Rut the Ex-Unit ed States Attorney General is as guil ty as sin of ftie crimes for which he was twice tried, a mistrial resulting each time. There is no doubt, either, but that Dougherty was one of the political hell-hounds of the Republican candi date because his sponsors believed he. would be putty in their hands. It was one of tho-most ill-timed incidents in the entire political history of this country that a lovable man like War ren G. Harding should have been as sociated with a lot of political thugs who made him their tool. His final end following his visit to Alasta was the saddest chapter in the country entire history, and it did much to am eliorate the bitterness felt everywhere that he should have fallen afoul of the track of his party’s worst associ ates—the gang, in fact. Harry M. Dougherty may be free, but he wears the heaviest of chains, the pressure which makes him the bondsman to his own conscience. The Lord Rave and the Lord hath takcv away; blessed be the name of the Lord.—Job i:21. OUR REMARKABLE AGE We are constantly hearing that we live- in a remarkable age. Well, why isn’t it remarkable? , Listen to this; We are living in the most remark able age of the world’s history for reasons of this sort; The other day an iron splinter lodg ed in the eye of a seaman on a freight steamer in mid-Atlantic. There was no doctor aboard. A wireless message was sent to a ship several miles away, and the surgeon of the latter vessel suggested that an electro-magnet be used to draw out the splinter, and described the method of making and using one. An hour later a wireless message.was sent out saying-that the splinter had been removed, and the salor’s eye was better. And no one happening of the year beats this. A little one shall become a thou sand, and a small one a great nation. —Isaiah lx:22. WHO HOLDS THE KEY? A bill in the New Jersey Senate, sponsored by Senator William B. Mac kay, provides for the annual registra tion of Pharmacies. The statement in the Bill reads as follows; “The pur pose of this supplement to the Phar macy Act is to facilitate proper sup ervision of the practice b'f pharmacy in the State of New Jersey, by mak ing the annual registration of drug stores compulsory, thus assuring to the public that prescriptions will be compounded, and drugs, medicines and poisons dispensed in drug stores by properly qualified persons.” That is a pure statement of facts and shows clearly that this Bill is simply a PUBLIC HEALTH' BILL. But for some reason the legislators cannot see why the people of the state arc entitled to protection against store keepers who sell poisons, dan gerous chemicals without knowledge of what they are selling, and no re gard as to whom they are sold, or to whether they will be put to the prop er use. There is too much “bootleg ging” of all kinds. Why should, the State allow illicit traffic in the drug business? Wliy should not the law be so con structed so as to permit only quali fied persons to engage in the prac tice of Pharmacy? There are only four actual and recognized profes sions, and Pharmacy is one of them. But anybody, can run a drug store, and sell all kinds of drugs and medi cines. BUT . HOW ABOUT THE PUBLIC? * This dangerous situation is not known to the general public and every fair thinking person owes it to him self to see that the proper laws arc passed preventing such lax methods. Such a, law as is defined by Senate Bill No. 108 gives the general public the assurance that when they deal in a drug store they are dealing with a man who is qualified to practice Phar macy. But for some reason sinister power in the Senate is holding up this all important legislation. Who IS the POWER? Does it come within the province of the CHAIR to move Bills that are good Bills and which are framed so as to’give direct protection to the public, to which these legislators are responsible? Eveveybody who knows Senator W. Mackay, knows that he has not been guilty of ever introducing a BAD BILL. Over (50,000 signatures from the public have been affixed to pet itions requesting the Senate to pass this Bill, but still through the influ ence of ONE man and his LITTLE GROUP, the Bill is being held up.

Hole Found In Palisade Avenue August Fcrrera of Leonia came bowling up Palisade avenue last Fri day night in a nearly new Ford. He was swinging down into Dead Man’s Dip near Tom Hunter road, going at a neat 15 mile clip and all was well. Spring was in the air and August was feeling just right. Seeing Fort Lee ahead August fell to musing—“These bally Elizabeths can jolly well be relied upon to deliver one to one’s blighted destination and return one in due course to ones’ blooming habitation.” But alas, he was a trifle premature. While he is quite intimate with his onions he doesn’t know Fort Lee like we know her, or he would have slowed down to a safe, five miles an hour as soon as he struck Dead Man’s MP- 4 • ‘ Yes, August did a very foolish thing in that he struck the dip at his regu lar speed and the next thing he struck was a big hole in the road and one second later he struck the back of his neck against the roof of the car and then he struck old Mother Earth along the wayside with friend Lizzie drap ped about his form. “Oh, fish!” said August, “Now isn’t that aggravating?” August was still sulking when F. Troy drove up. “What in the world are you doing?” asked Francis, “sitting there in that damp gutter, d6 you want to get pneu monia or something?” “Big hole in the road threw me bo.w legged,” snapped August. “No impudence, now” said Francis sternly. “Evidently you don’t know how to dirve on Fort Lee streets. I’ll go right up and report you to the police,” and so he did, forthwith. Next came Councilman Grieb. “Hey you,” yelled the Councilman, “You can’t park your car upside down that way: I think there is an ordi nance or something against it.” “Ah, go slap a toad,” said August without looking around. This so angered the Councilman that he slammed the door of his car and carefully dodging the holes drove as quickly as the bumps would permit, straight to the police station. When the Councilman arrived, Mr. Troy was doing his reporting and they made a joint affair of it. “I guess I’ll have to give him a ticket for reckless driving or he’ll sue the Borough,” said the Sergeant, with true patriotic spirit. “It’s simply disgusting” said the Councilman “the way some folks drive. There is plenty of room be tween those holes, why can’t they duck them? I drove through there yester day and I didn’t take a high dive, did I?” The Councilman was very em phatic. Mr. Troy and the Sergeant held a consultation and unanimously agreed that the Councilman had done nothing of the sort. The Sergeant dispatched an officer to take care of poor August'. As the officer was leaving a thought seemed to come to the Sergeant, “Watch out for the holes” he shouted after him.

Please Give Name Of Author And Source. Lady Twilight Beautiful Lady Twilight comes, Soft as a breath, and still; Veiled is she in the falling rain, Warm from a distant hill. I Lovingly Lady Twilight looks, Out of her clear, gray eyes; Kind is she as the spring is kind, Wise as the years are wise. Gently over the land she steals, Weaving dream-tapestry; I hope she weaves, with her silver hanils, A beautful dream for me. —Mary S. Hawling, Ridgefield Park, N. J. Men (From Poetry) I like men. They stride about, They reach in their pockets And pull things out; i They look important, . They rock on their toes, They lose all the buttons Off of their clothes; > They throw away pipes, They find them again, Men are queer creatures; I like men.—Dorothy E. Reid. I cannot see what flowers are at my feet, Nor what soft incense hangs upon the boughs, But, in embalmed -darkness, guess each sweet. Wherewith the seasonable month endows, The grass, the thicket and the fruit tree wild; White hawthorne, and the pastoral eglantine; Fast-fading violets covered up in leaves; And mid-May’s eldest child, The coming musk-rose, Tull of dcwey wine, .The mqrmurous haunt of flies on summer eves. I Darkling I listen; and, for many a time I have been half in love with ease ful Death, Called him soft names in many a mused rhyme, To take into the air my quiet breath Now more than ever seems it rich to die, To cease upon the midnight with no pain, While thou art pouring forth thy soul abroad, In such an ecstasy! Still wouldst thou sing, and I have ears in vain— To thy high requiem become a sod. —John Keats: from “Ode to a Night ingale.” Poems I Love By Charles Hanson Towne “THE STIRRUP CUP,” By John Hay The late John Hay, Secretary of State under McKinley, and once our Ambassador to Great Britain, is said to have been not a little ashamed of some of his earlier poems, after he became identified with the Cabinet. His Pike County Ballads, in which were included the famous “Jim Blud so, and ‘ Little Breeches, he almost disowned; yet there was no need to deny the paternity of these genre pic tures, extremely good in their way. As for the strong poem below, surely Hay must have known how fine it was. Had the cares of statesmanship not claimed Hay, he might have become a literary figure of tremendous im port. It is remarkable that, in his crowded life, he found time for any verse-writing at all. He was forced to abandon it altogether in later years. But “The Stirrup Cup,” as well as a few of his dialect poems, will surely be remembered and cher ished. My short and happy day is done,. The long and dreary night comes on, And at my door the pale horse stands To carry me to unknown lands. His whinny shrill, his pawing hoof, Sound dreadful as a gathering storm; And I must leave this sheltering roof, And joys of life so goft and warm. i Tender and warm the joys of life,— Good friends, the faithful and the true My rosy children and my wife, So sweet to kiss, so fair to view— ) So sweet to kiss, so fair to view; The night comes down, the lights burn blue; And at my door the pale horse stands To bear me forth to unkonwn lands. Ravelings By "RAGGLES" SPUKS! Our friend Daniel cer tainly had considerable to write about when he tackled “spurs.” Most spurs arc used to promote ac tion: a metal point worn on a riding boot to urge a horse on; the gaff of a game cock; a climbing iron; a wing dam to deflect a river current; a half beam to support the deck of a ship; the ram of a war vessel; a brace strengthening a post. While all these help to make things go there is lark spur which keeps little insects found in the locks of school children from going. As for “spurs in the head!” well of course we do not HAVE such things any more for they arc found in a glass of liquor. Is the clanging of your spur a wel come sound? Is your heart spurred on to right a deadly wrong? Are you • brave while searching ’round For the truth that may be found, In the lives that arc brim full of love and song? True heaven lies within our beating hearts, ’Tis something hard to heal the open wounds g But the only thing we know Is “we reap whate’er we sow” And the cui'c for broken hearts in God abounds. Watching Cliff side High With “JUD” On Friday, March 4, the boys team defeated Dumont 23—14. Good team-work was shown on the part of both teams but Cliffside excelled. The gym was crowded with people chuck full of enthusiasm. Those who played are, Finucane, Cologreeo, Drappa, Borrelli, Anderson, La Pietra, Clahan and Stewart. The girls game was more exciting than the boys game, the final score being 20 to 20. Dumont held the lead a good part of the time but it was a very hard fight to the end. The way the girls played was certainly a cre dit to Cliffside. Park.

'1 HOWE ABOUT— By ED HOWE *53 lt*A**4*»A**fl*<iH#4 (Copyright by The Bell Syndicate, me.) What a great amount of disorderly living goes on In every neighborhood— In almost every household 1 It Is the great crime of humanity. Mothers spoiling children which might become a valuable asset to the community. Husbands and wives wrangling to their own hurt f i Lack of thrift. Lack of efficiency. Lnck of ordinary politeness. Waste, waste, waste. If a man steals a thousand dollars the loss is not great compared with every one In the community being somewhat disorderly. If a man shoots another only two are harmed directly and a few others indirectly, and this happens only at rare Intervals. But disorderly living goes on In a community every day and night and every one engages in and suffers from It. It Is one thing that should cause us all to blush. Why Is a man respected? Isn’t It always because he Is polite, modest, honest, industrious, and contributes his fair share toward the general wel fare? . . . And If you have the re spect of those with whom you come In contact, the going Is much easier. I do not greatly care for the one man strutting at the top, but sincere ly admire the millions doing very well a little lower down. The number of men who get along well enough, In spite of bow legs, falling hair, and other human Ills, is enormous. Madam, does your husband bora you? Certainly. . . . But you probably bore him as much as he bores you. Often what a woman re gards as her loveliest _ trait annoys her husband most. You may say the brute shouldn’t be that way. . . . i But he Is, so let us reason together; more reasonably. I am one of the old-fashioned who believe a preacher should dignify his doctrine by living it. It Is such preach-! ers who lipally preach the world's, useful sermons. . ' I often think peoplei should ,BQ*! derstnnd each other better, God knows there is no great mystery about Men and women everywhere ta££ mean about their neighbors, but never mean half of It; they know most Ql U Is untrue. Sometimes a foolish theory SriS cause quite a ripple on the ocean Oft fact. Tr KITCHEN CABINET ((c). 1926, Western Newspaper Union.)
