The half dozen yacht clubs on Hempstead Bay, and within the boun daries of this beautiful development, opened the season with aquatic sports, motorboat races, and elaborate enter tainments for residents and visitors. Visitors at the ideal country and seaside colony were astonished today to note the heavy increase in building operations within the development dur ing the last year.

Woodcleft is a short distance from the Long Island Railroad station, and is penetrated by two lines of trolley cars. One of these connects with Brooklyn and the county seat at Min- eola, while the other has its term inal at the railroad. The train service at Freeport, which is twenty-two miles from M anhattan, is the best on the Montauk Division. Forty trains stop at the station daily throughout the nothing but the English language in all its services. This step became ne- cessay on account of the different na tionalities which the Lutheran Church seeks to m inister to in this country. English is the language common to all of them. During the present pastorate an ex tension was built to the chapel (1911), to take care of the growing Sunday School. A hot w ater heating system was installed in the parsonage and church in 1912, and during 1913 the chapel was carpeted throughout. In the five years of its existence about $7500 has been raised for the local and benevolent work of the church. There are four societies in the church: The Ladies Aid Society, with year, and in the summer the number is gg members, the Senior Luther League, with 32 members, the Junior Luther Leegue, with 18 members, and the increased.

Loses Wife in April, Gets Another in May The announcement of the m arriage of Dr. Thomas Mills, of Leonard Ave nue, Freeport, to Miss Elizabeth De Vine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed ward De Vine, of Long Island City, confirms the culmination of a brief romance born of a family friendship of long standing and a common sympathy developing at the death of Mra. Alma Mills, the doctor’s former wife, during the month of April. Dr. Mills re turned from the West Indies upon re ceipt of the news of his w ife’s illness, racing with death on his voyage up the coast. He was not aware of the gravity of Mrs. Mills’ condition and did not know of her demise until he reached Freeport. Mias De Vine and her parents have long been close friends of Dr. Mills. Mr. De Vine and the doctor were once in the theatrical business together. Their acquaintance dates back almost to childhood. Dr. Mills has known Miss De Vine since she was a girl in her teens. A fter the funeral of his first wife, they were together often. He visited frequently at her home in Long Island City. The bonds of sym pathy which bound them in the first instance expanded into love in the sec ond. The courtship of the doctor ex tended over a period of but a few weeks. , According to the announcement the m a rriage took place on May 2. The couple returned to “ Alma V illa,’’ the home of Dr. Mills on Leonard Aveune, after a abort wedding trip. The bride of Dr. Mills is a charming and attractive blonde of about tw enty- eight. He is nearly fifty. —Post.

Karkau, the present pas tor, was born Septem ber 13, 1879, in Germany. He came to the United States April 13, 1883, and settled with his parents in Lansing, Mich., where he was educated in public and private schools. He entered Muhlenberg Col lege, Allentown, Pa., in 1902 and g rad uated in 1906, when he entered Mount Airy Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, from which he was grad uated in 1909.

One of the latest is from a young lady of 18, who feels that Shannon would make her an ideal husband. She addresses it to “ anny newspaper Co. in N.

Well I think that I am handsome and I sureljl could appreciate a good hus band. tell me if you think I will do.
