All friends of the church and Sunday School are invited to join on this outing. The New York &.Long Island Trac tion Cqrnpany has changed the position of its track at the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Bedell Street. Several months ago Cadman Frederick made a complaint that the tracks turned this corner down Bedell Street, into At lantic Avenue, so close to his curb that it would be dangerous for him to put a sidewalk there. The Trolley Company objected to making the change, but has finally'done it, swinging the track further south on the same street. A number of the young friends of Miss Lulu Chapman t-ndered her a lin en shower Friday afternoon, at the home of Miss Marion Dusenbery, West Merrick Road. The party gathered to spend the afternoon sewing, and at the proper time they were all invited to the dining room, when Miss Chapman was requested to “ take down the wash’’ so that refreshments could be served. Such an invitation was en tirely unexpected by Miss Chapman, and it found her unable to respond for a little while, but she did as she was requested, and then was obliged to telephone to her Residence that she had been caught in a heavy shower, and wishe'l to have somebody sent to help her got home. i** ch a rg e d and ’th e nurehaee o f t h e s e ' . <•..= uujr» piay away cnarged, and th e purchase o t th e s e from hom e a t B a y s h o r e b n t wi|1 b cards, while desired, is not compol- home next Come out and see a good game and give the boys lots of encouragement.
