LOST SHEEP
* Lost, strayed or stolen—A large
flock of Union Church of Palisade
sheep. They have been gone for some
time. When last seen they were
browsing along the road of indiffer
ence. Any one finding these sheep
please bring them home if possible
and you will receive ample reward. If
they refuse to come home drive them
into the nearest fold, lock the door
and report to the proper authorities.
Plenty of fodder will be provided
Sundays.
A GRIEVANCE
Here is a real grievance.
Several medical conventions have
held forth recently in various sections
of the country, and thousands of doc
tors have been talking their heads off,
much of it to the advantage and bene
fit of suffering humanity. Reading
the proceedings of these gatherings,
one is naturally in sympathy with the
many, achievements of science. But
in all of the talking lasting as much
as four days in some of the medical
bodies, not a ding-blasted sunuvaguu
of them offered the public a sure cure
for corns or bunions! A doctor who
cannot put over pedestrial extremi
ties in good order cannot be said to be
safe for the tummy.' And that’s that.
PALISADE’S INVENTOR
In Palisade lives one of the most in
teresting inventors of the country in
the person of Jean Nazeley. Else
where in this issue are the printed de
tails of something so unique and orig
inal about Mr. Nazeley’s latest crea
tion that it will repay reading. He
had produced a model of what will in
all likelihood be called an auto-aero
plane, which means that he hopes to
fly along the roadways as an automo
bile, then by the pressure of a lever,
release the airplane wings and im
. mediately “take the air” as an ortho
dox aeroplane. Mr. Nazeley tells an
interesting story of his experience as
a mechanical expert, and the auto
airplane recital will repay any read
er.
MEAT STYLES
Feminine fashion is about to show
an indifference to live stock.
In order to wear modish clothing
women eat for slenderness of line
lean meats, and this means not only
cutting out the starches but eating
much less fat. So, according to the
New York World there is less demand
for fat meats. Of course, this in turn
shows in the type of cattle and hogs
supplied to the packing houses. Cat
tle must be razor-backed or fail to
find a market. Fat steers and piggie
take a back seat. They must be thin
ner and thinner to meet the new re
quirements. This forces the farmer
to modify his feeding requirement
and finds less and less use for corn
This hardly seems fair to the animal
who have a perfectly legitimate right
to be fat if they want to. Hut tin
decrees of fashion are inexorable and
cannot be denied.
TWO FRENCH SOLDIERS
France has been talking of moving
her “Unknown Soldier’’ from his bin
ial place under the great Arc de Tri
ornph. They seem to feel that tin
place is too public, and the fine ideal
represented is being "vulgarized” by
too many perfunctory visits from pub
licit y-st ekers.
The plan that seems to find mo t
favor i: to place the body of the anon
ymous war hero in the lnvalide. ,
where lies the great Napoleon.
This might be thought by some to
be a striking arrangement—France’s
Unknown Soldier resting beside the
best Known Soldier of modern times.
Morally and spirtually, however,
the two hardly belong together. The
Great Unknown represents* utter .self
sacrifice of the individual to his coun
try, a sacrifice so complete that even
the martyr’s identity is lost.
Napoleon represents the pinnacle of
selfish egotism—by a master-mind for
his own arrogant purposes, regardless
of his undaunted bravery and skill as
a general.
PRIZES FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN
How many boys and girls of the
Palisade school have read “Tom
Brown’s School Days?’’
This wonderful book was written by
a famous Englishman, Thomas
Hughes, and published in 18.’>7. The
story of “Tom Brown’s School Days”
is about a boy who went through the
world-known school at 1,’ugby. The
author was himself a graduate of
Rugby, so was able to portray the
true meaning of all that Rugby meant
—a public school, they called it. Tom
Brown was just an every-day boy of
well-to-do parents, who indulged him
m his desire to enter Rugby because
of its fame and high standing. He
became almost immediately a leader
in the school, though unobtrusive,
brave and modest, yet resolute.
( There has never been a book more
inspiring, human and interesting than
“Tom Brown’s School Days.” It is
<iuito as valuable to an adult reader
as to a youth. Perhaps it is the most
valuable book any boy ever read.
The editor of the “Palisadian”
thinks so much of this great book that
lie is going to offer three prizes to the
pupils of the Palisade school for the
best review of it. The prizes, will be
.$2, and $1, for the best, second
best and third best article of not less
than (100 words, and not under 000
words. The reviews must be pledged
as original, with no assistance from
any source in preparing them.
Each review will be published, and
the awards will be made by a local
committee of three, the editor one of
them, merit alone to be the guide.
“Tom Brown’s School Days” may be
found in any library or book store,
and comes in popular edition style,
price as low as 80 cents. It is worth
its weight in gold at any price. The
awards will be made the middle of
January, 1928.
RECALLING GOOD ADVICE
It is now some three weeks since
John A. Matthews, of Newark, a pret
ty good Democratic authority, told the
members of his party in the Cliffside
Park municipal campaign that they
could not afford to drop ,the charges
they were making against the Bor
ough administration ho 'matter what
the, outcome of the election might be.
The situation, he declared, demand1
ed a Supreme Court investigation in
justice to all concerned. More than
two weeks have passed since the elec
tion, but if the Democrats have taken
steps to follow his advice they have
concealed them admirably. Uniter the
circumstances, it is fair to ask what
the significance of the Cliffside Park
campaign on the part of the Demo
crats actually was. Was it merely a
mud-slinging campaign of the outs
against the ins, or was it a bona fide
attempt to improve the administration
and relieve the overburdened taxpay
ers?
The fact that some of the charges
verged upon allegations of criminal
ity and that a member of the County
Prosecutor’s stair was a member of
the Democratic campaign committee
and thus' at least indirectly respon
sible for them, does not serve to give
the whole affair any better odor.—
Jersey Observer.
The utter freedom with which the
leading Democratic candidate in the
Cliffside campaign slandered people
and the Palisadian was the most open,
the most brazen and most impudent
audacity and effrontary any man ever
undertook. Men have had their faces
slapped for less and some have been
punished for criminal libel.
CULTURE AND THE WORKING
MAN
Thc> workingman of today is a very
different fellow being from the old
school. His earning capacity is over,
double what if was a dozen years ago.
The war saw labor go up by leaps and
bounds. That great Jabor leader
Samuel (lumpers, once he saw wages
go up prophesied that they would
never go down, llis vision was true
enough, and developed the power of
organization with proper motive be
hind it. Labor was the greatest coad
jutor of capital and Counters foresaw
its possibilities in his strenuous de
mands for adequate compensation.
Since his determined drives, labor has
come into its own as the great ally of
capital, and progress in manufacture
and building has demonstrated that
the country can thrive and still pay
high wages.
lint what of the advance in cul
ture'.’ Labor has not shown what it
should in this direction, though mak
ing some advances. The workingman
of today in the ordinary pursuits of
building and manufacture is still far
behind in education, though its ad
vantages are at every hand. Evidence
of this can he seen all about us.
Men who never before had much have
ample now, yet they do not show a
great deal of pride in bettering them
selves intellectually. This is unfort*
unately true. If the rank and file
lack refinement it is because they do
not seek it—that is, the masses do
not. They live better, the scale of liv
ing is higher, but culture appears to
lag. In point of fact, culture will not
deny itself to the blacksmith, the
gardner, the bootblack, even, if only
the hand is held out to beckon it on.
It would be fine for society if the
standards of culture could bo raised.
Emerson said that “culture creates
a personal independence which the
monarch cannot look down, and to
which he must often succumb.”
REMARKABLE PEN PORTRAITS
Ilerndon It. Davis is a member of
the United States Army located at
Governor’s Island, New York harbor.
At the present time he is contributing
a series of really wonderful pen por
traits of prominent men in the army
through the columns of U. S. Army
Recruiting' News, a weekly publica
tion in magazine form published at
Governor's Island.
That Mr. Davis is possessed of re
markable talent .is easily seen in any
of his many portrait studies in the
Recruiting News. He had a style of
execution all his own and unique in
the fine quality of its exquisite, live
work. Drawn' ' on a coarser scale,
these portraits reduce to a texture
that has never_ been even approached
by any other American. Every fea
ture of the Davis portraiture is per
fectly rendered, though the live work
appears as so many hair lines criss
crossing each other, yet possessed in
the massing of the most bewildering
and life-like effects both in high
lighting and shadow effects. Indeed,
it is difficult to describe this new art
of pen drawing by artist Davis, whjch
will bear any form of critical examin
at ion, the wonder being always, how
docs he do it? The Palisadian hopes
to have the pleasure of printing some
of these pen portraits if they can be
obtained. As examples of a different
and better art in pen portraiture they
are almost bewildering in interest.
They must require marvellous pat
ience as well as execution.
MR. FORD’S TRIUMPH
The amazing triumph of Henry
Ford and his new automobile models
stamp him as one of the most remark
able men the world has ever knoy/n.
Of this there can be no possible doubt.
He proves that an intellectual special
ist may rise to even greater heights
than statesmen or kings in contribut
ing benefits to humanity.
The new Ford has been a ■World
wide triumph. Not only has America
paid it tribute by leaving $25,000,000
in orders for it the first day it was
seen, for 50,000 of the new cars, but
all countries in Europe paid it the
same obeisance by similar action.
Mr. Ford made one interesting
statement in connection with the new
models. He said that he felt that the
advances he had contributed to the
automobile world were as much aes
thetic as mechanical. This means that
the advancing dominance of the auto
mobile throughout the world was as
much concerned in the beauty side
of the case as the useful side. Hence,
in introducing his new car, Mr. Ford
had laid special emphasis on the
beautiful with the useful.
So far as beauty of lines, color and
grace arc concerned, Mr. Ford has
distinguished himself, for nothing
more appealing has ever been present
ed than his new car. Thus the aim
of everybody to possess a machine
that will travel with the best up to
<>5 miles an hour in speed, is aug
mented by the good taste it shows out
side. Beauty is a natural, yet with
al, a strange influence. It is some
thing that God has put into all of His
creations. The world of natifre is
beauty in the abstract, hence we live
in appreciation of the color of flow
ers, the wonderment of trees, the
charm of children, and the marvels
of the skies. Therefore if Mr. Ford
had done no more than adorn his new
creation with fine feathers, he would
have made a great contribution. But
with all of this distinctive beauty he
has added the glory of mechanical
perfection that amazes, and therefore
he has 'made history and placed him
self upon a pedestal.
Mr. Ford’s achievement is more
than a success, it is triumphant, and
places him rightfully among the im
mortals.
Hod hath not promised
Skies always blur,
Flower-strewn path wans
All our life through
Hod hath not promised
Sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Fence without pain;
Hut Hod hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor,
Sight for the way,
timer for the trials,
Help from above,
11ufailing sympathy,
Undying lore.

Now we ask you, is it fair? Is it
justice to accuse a “tiyrgu .group”, of
having intestinal imligrtSftioh to the

Is it not safe to assume''that there
may have been other depressing dis

paundice or a temporary attack of

And what of Mencken? lias he in

Expression is one of the things that
you need the most of in cases like

One wants to explain how it hurts.
Words to express just what intestinal

It taxes the vocabulary and tin? weak
