SulTolk is so large m county in area that it Is a hardship for people to drive or send to Riverhead for trie plnles, nnd while County Clerk Fred .S. Pulver has done everything: pos- sible to issue the plates promptly by mail , that is found unsatisfactory by some of the car owners. Some people in the ex t reme western part of tlie county have bought their plates in Nassau , and in tHis wny Suffolk loses a part of the* fees sent back here for highway work. The plan is now to seek legislation thnt will allow town clerks in ull towro IB miles or more from the county clerk' s oflice to issue the plates. It is lipped that the law will bo so drafted that the town clerk -will not have to report to the county clerk at all , so as to save expense on the part of the county and expedite the work of the clerks , but whether this is practical or not remains to be seen. / BOUNTY CLERK PULVER came in ^-' for a verbal drubbing- at the Brookhaven town board meeting ' here Wednesday on this sabject . Supervisor Macintosh informing the members of the bonrd that Pulver simply will not do anything thou gh much pressure has been brought to bear upon him. This came up when Town Clerk Jones offered a resolution through which the board would ask the county clerk to designate the town clerk as a branch license agent. , - \It won 't , do any goo _ and 111 never sign anything like that , \ exclaimed Macintosh. \I wouldn't bflittle my- self asking him any more-after the way he has acted.

No matter where her citizens may be gathering, they iicvar fail to extend an invitation to everyone to visit them.

They are alway?,glad to coine to Patchogue; they receive a -warm and sincere welcome and they leave ber pprtalsfwith a kindly feeling to- ward the community. That is hospi- tality, There are countloss . villag es , even as there are*countless homes,, in which there , is a cold , ungenerous manner Pervading. ' No one feels jUsf wel- come; no one warms to the atmos- phere , becomes imbued with the fexil- ing of hominess ; as they do when they are within the envi rons .of a hospit- able community. - .

AS I SEE IT • , . . . - i Advises No Pay for Bad Water Village Can ' t Take Dr. Over- ton ' s Suggestion It ' . Good Enough for Fire U.e—Diph- theria Innoculatiom Again Dii- cu**ed—No Conclusion IWIATTERS Of public health were • ** given much prominence; on Tuesday , night by the village board und while milk came in for the most discussion the water situation and •hat pertaining to the Immunteati on of children from diphtheria by i-tnocu- Intion with toxin-antitoxin were a _ * -o given much attention. The matter of the purity and qual- ity of the water was bro u ght up by Trustee Joh n Roe Snedecor who com- plained of the color during the past three or four days and the other mem- bers of the board agreed that the val- or had been discolored since last Sat- urday. The gene^ opinion was that something should bo done in. the mat- ter but the board was puzzled as to it? power to improve, the situation. Dr. Prank Overton toul the board in very p lain terms that he was go- ing to deduct five gallons of water a (11$' for three months ' time when he came to pay his water company bill , his contention being that he had to draw that much water off before it became clear , and he strongly advised everj' member of the board to do the sume. Mr. Bellman , said the ' village could not very well refuse to pay its bill as nearly all it used the . water for was for fire ' and (L little rust- in the water at a fire would make the water heavier .and /thus ' put the- fire out in shorter order , .perhaps. T\R. OVERTOM explained that the ^ water company wns getting away with tlie present conditions be- cause the state was only interested in water to the point of whether or not it : would cause illness when drunk. He snid that the Patchogue water would not make anyone* sick but at the same time it was entirely -unfit for house- hold use because of the iron rust in it. He explained various means that could be employed in remedying the situa- tion. 1 In getting state approval re- cently of its sources of supply the water company ' was bound by a con- dition to clarify thewater. Health Officer W. S. Bennett brought the diphtheria immunization to the attention of-the board and said that he had been distributing educa- tional matter to thi * school children and their parents and had talked the matter over with the doctors. He brought ' out the fact that the physi- cians were divided on the matter of fees, three of them feeling that it would be a bad precedent to do this work free but Dr. Bennett said he was willing \to do the whole crowd abso- lutely free if th .o board wanted him to. \ He said that the. school nurse Viid not Seel she could give her time to the project due to the already wide scope of her duties. , Dr. Overton said that'his jden in the matter was th at thc doctors in the vil- lage should be brought together and the matter talked over , for , he said , the doctors must first be lined up art the proposition and then the peop le must be prepared for it. Hc felt* it was useless to go ahead u ntil both the doctors and the- people were en- tirely ready for the carrying out of the immunization plan , and he ,will take steps to further such a stage. It wits admitted that if there was a ' fee , or other than a nominal one , charged for the work , the ' majority cf peopl e would not have the innocu- lntions made on their children , for one member pointed • out that people of moderate means who could afford this work would have it done anyway bUt that It would be difficult to bring the average person around to such a meas- ure. It was suggested that the village engage ' a nurse and pay for. her scr*- vices to , assist the doctors at a pro- posed free clinic. '-The entire matter was tabled until a more definite idea of the situation could be secured. Police Booth Goin g to Stay on Level Truilee* Vote Down Bellman ' * Idcn of I' ultlnit Offlorrr Into Airy Pe.ch DY ii vote of fi . in- lo one the village *-^ board , In executive session , fol- lowing lhe regular mooting Tuesday night , said no to the proposed olnva- tion ' of the police liooth nt the t-oyior of .Main Street nnd Occift Avenue nnd voted tu replace the booth on tho for- mer bust, ns it wns before its removal Inst week. This definitely settled it mattcri that had been in tho alt; since last Saturday when it disagreement wjii; reported among the vnrlou . mem- bers of the board on the project of raising it six feet above {Is present level. When the work of insinuation start- ed on the new trn lllc controls President Bellman felt that, to host promote the vision of the officer on duty and to pre vent the prnt. -li. -e of passersby talking with the man stationed there that the booth should be raised. He said he thought he had assurance of support from the hoard members be- fore- proceeding with the proposition. But after the hole wus drilled for placing the steel column it is said that two of the members balked. Mr. Bell- man , turned back by this , halted oper- ations until the meeting Tuesday night at which his measure was defeated. All four oi ' the -other board members opposed the ideii on the ground that it would be unsafe to have the booth elevated and also on the basis, that it would present a grotesque appearonce. Mr. Bellman pointed out the various means he had taken to obliterate danger , but failed to win support , so the booth lias gone back to its low base, after being out of service for a week. It is expected that stringent means will be taken to prevent peo- ple talking with thc officer in the booth other tha n on important busi- ness* .

Change Made in East Main St. Business Zones Officials Deny Balking West Patchogue Move Oak Street Paving Foi-mally Accepted —Change Made in Sewage Plant P{an TTIE old rule that silence gives con- •* ' sent prevailed to quite an extent at the village board meeting on Tues - day night when the scheduled hearing on the re-zoning of East Main Street from a Business A area to ft Business B district cajne up. At the time it was slated to take place there was no one present but later fn the evening E. J. Woolford appeared in an in- formal manner and said he was in favor of the petition seeking the change and on motion the measure was unanimously passed. - The first petition relative to this change came up last August when the matter wns submitted by John J. Roe. When it came time for final action it was found that there was a technical error in the original request because a plot was loft sequestered in the rear of tho Congregational Church and the village could not properly grant a re- zoning that would leave a certain p ar- cel isolated 1 from tho new change. The change rozones from a Busines s A to a Business B district tho land bounded on tlie north and tho east by the present residential districts , on the south by East Main Street and westerly by the present Business B district which said plots aro inter- sected by Maple Avenue and also tho land bounded on the north by East Main Street , ou the cast by the pres- ent residential district and on the south by a lino 200 feet distant on the south and parallel with the south side of Main Street and on the west by the present Business B district. Some of \ the board members had a merry time* criticising articles pub- lished in Tho Advance on the West Patchogue annexation question. They charged that the Advance has put the board-in a. wrong 1 light and made it appear that it was obstructing the ad- dition of this section. President Bell- man denied being \ non-committal\ on tho matter and Raid he didn 't know whether the Advance or Henry E. Hess , (president of the West Patch- ogue Taxpayers ' Association), was talking about him that way. After a lengthy, discussion of the articles ap- pearing in the Advance n representa- tive of this paper who wus there simply aa a reporter , explained to the board that tho main article on tha subject wns principally nn tnfcowiow given by Mr. Hess , who houds the West Patchoguo group , and was pub- lished as liis side of the question . Various members pointed out that they could iiot be expected to give any answer pro or con as to advantages to be given West' Patchogue since they had never seen the petition, and fur- thermore they said that they could not bo ch arged with obstructing some- thing they know nothing about , except hearsay.

On Wednesday night tho locnl trucking firm received six pieces of electrical apparatus at their city warehouse at 374 Venter Street from the Bell Telephone Company to bo de- livered at Rocky Point. So certain was the Boll Company that tho parts would be delivered at once by Roich Brothftrs thnt no rush orders wero given. That night the . parts were brought to. Patchogue and tho next morning re-consigned to Rocky Point on a truck driven by Leonard Addis. When Addis left Patchogue he lit- tle realized that he was carrying on his truck , the most important parts of the system that would connect New- York and London so that he was con- siderably surprised nt the enthusiastic welcome ho got when he arrived nt Rocky Point. One of the chief engineers dashed out to meet Addis and asked him if ho hud soni c parts for them nnd he replied he did and then tho engineer appraised Addis of the fact that he had the koy units for the trans- Atlantic service and that tho opening of the sorvk-o Friday was dependent on the receipt of those units Thursday. - Tho most prosperous year in it* his- tory, a ftua balance in tho treasury and the payment of all debts wore tho salient features of tho reports mnde at tbe onnual meeting of- the Congre- gational Church held at tho churc h Wednesday evening.
