Many con- structive, ideas are advanced dur- ing these discussions. Yet when the Freoport.Plan- Whg Com mi ssion^J) road cast an in- vitation to service and civic cluhs, other organizations and individ- uala'ihat it was going to hold fm' open meeting for the precise pur- pose of listening to such sugges- tions less than twenty pnrsons at- tended the meeting. And moat of them were there out of curiosity or because they happened to he in tht building to attend other events of which there wece Ove last Thursday night.*. Others sent letters containing suggestions, but thp response which the members of the com- mission had a right to anticipate -whs disappointing. Some of the ideas presented were helpful. Oth- ers advanced would.be of benefit to proposers if adopted. And some did not come within the province uf the Planning Com- mission. Consequently we fed thatTlhc meeting was not of great advan- tage to the group.

That's the way It Is in Mar- garet Leech's \Reveille In Wash- ington\ (Harper, $3.50), the Book- of-the-Month Club's choice for September. It. comes alive probably as It never has before In this sprawling fact-nilecT, ,Tintimate period piece The author, who 4s also known as Mrs. Ralph Pulitzezr, the publish- er's ;wjj&;:&nd-who worked on this narrAb?e?v\f6?:^ve years, has In- .dccd. carved a picture that Is downright exact and enormously A long dimmed point: .that the naMpn's capl^ol was very nearly invaded upon countless- occasions and ready to capitulate . . . that- secessionists even drilled in the streets of Washington. And, while Miss Leech tells of sandbags and hotel lobbies and markets and mud and hospitals and blood and banter, she Infer- en-tlally .reveals how a democracy can muddle and yet win* With the unfinished dome of the Capitol overlooking the bed- lam and reinforcements arriving from the North, to hasten to the Maryland frontier to prevent the, Confederates from piling Into Pennsylvania, there was even n time in April, 1861, when Wash- ington was separated from all railroad and telegraph communi- cation with everything north of the Potomac- River.

McOloskey, chairman of the honor roll committee of Will- iam -OUnton Story .Post,. A. L.,_an- nounced at the semi-monthly meet- ing last Friday night in the Dug;- out, that the Village Board had granted the application of the post for permission to erect an honor roll for the men called Into service from Freeport. This is to be In- stalled on the mall north of the Long Island Railroad tracks at the station. The post voted $300 with which to provide the honor roir which la to be made of bronze as a perma- nent tribute to the men in the army,, navy and Marines. It will contain space for 300 names, to which more can be added if nec- essary. The names _of all men who have volunteered and those called Into service through the -local Se? lectlve' \Service Board, as well as others who enter any branch dur- ing the present emergency, will be inscribed on the roll. A temporary honor roll will be erected Immediately, but the per- manent plaque will be completed within three months, Mr. McCloskey announced. Also serving on the committee are past Commanders Robert D. Campbell and Frank Curley. The speaker of the evening was Major Ivan Firth, a British army officer who served, in Palestine with AUeniby and who nov—ls\ inutile United States on a special mission. His topic was \Aliens in Arcadia.\ Former United States laxness in Immigration regulations amazed the Major, he said, as he urged a still greater tightening of restric- tions. \Americans should be careful to guard against the admission of all Insidious groups such as Fascists and Nazis,\ he asserted.- H6 cau- tioned that thought should be given immediately to the rehabilitation and quick adjustment to post-war civil life, as he referred to the de- velopments in the building, up of national defense. Major Firth defined the United States \as the only country in the world where a_ man is nonetheless human because he does: go to church and nonetheless divine be- cause he does not.\ George Khocke Introduced the speaker, and Past .Commander Robert D, C&mpbell presided In the absence of7 Commander Richard P.

Yep, this paper does have a boss, two of 'em if you count living expenses.. I don't crave to be a reporter but—neither do I crave .to continue Jo._sweep qut the off? ice \ and dust the bosses' heel prints off tlie desk. Let's collect myself now. What's the first thing a reporter does when he looks for news? Darned if I know but I think Til ask some- body over on Main street, you can get anything under the sun over there. Why not advice? That's It, why nob? It's a thought and It won't cost anything, the boss will like that part of ..it. Wonder if that display of Jewels by Trifari over in. Moser's Jewelry store window Is news? Bet It would be. Nothing just like the shape and color of them pretties ever hit this town before. Least- wise I never saw anything like it. One of them is a costume piece (that?s what the sigh\\ days5. It's\ an almost round Ash bowl of aquamarine, with a lot of silver and stun* looking like Bowers on the outside. And Inside darned if there isn't a couple of nsh, or Is It fishes? swimming around. Sounds funny, doesn't It, but it's pretty^ Gee, can you Imagine my gal Susie dressed in one of those swell fall outfits with that nsh bowl pinned on her shoulder? While I was standing there gap- ing a tall man came out of the atpre and, ^ .pays '|prjE^ty,_^lnIt they - y^ey are*M&ir^handr-made and distinctive. Look at that Swoosel\ And there was me not knowing what is a Swoose. Then kinder nice like he says to me, \You know a Swoose is part swan and part goose.\ Well, I look again and sure enough I see a long black, shiny neck, with green eyes on one end and lots of rliine- stone making a wing and back on the other end. Says I to me, so that's a'Swoose. And If you don't believe all this junf; pick out one of these sunny days and go look for yourself. I'm taking Susie down tomorrow night for a look. It's a free show and worth every cent it costs. Oee the boss said not to stay out long. See you later if I ain't need,..
