The first dance of the year was not quite as largely attended as the Club's usual dances, only about thirty clcuples being present. The small attendance can very easily be accounted for as this was the first dance of the year and several of the members did not know of it until too' late to attend. The committee promises a much larger attendance at iti next dance.

Aring has taken the agency for the “ Reliance Air Contain er.’’ This is an improvement over the present metnod of making inner tubes, and it is claimed that a nail can be driven directly through these tubes and pulled out again, and no air can escape. Mr. Aring is enthusiastic over this proposition, and will no doubt “ make good.*’ The Review is always willing to publish local items and news of a gen eral character which will be interest to its readers, and will greatly appre ciate it if such items be brought or sent to the Review office.

Miller was in an auto mobile collision Monday when he was driving George T. VanRiper to the tailroad station. The car being partly open, Mr. VanRiper was holding an umbrella to shed the rain. The gust of wind shifted the umbrella in front of Mr. Miller, and he ran against the limousine owned by’Trustee Ernest S. Randall, his nephew. Both automo biles were damaged, but none of the occupants were injured Rowland II.

The Tournament Committee is planning to have some time on Thanks giving Eve. Wednesday, November 24. Do not say “ Ob I can’t bowl,” because you can ; even if you have never bowled a game before in your life, you have the s ime chance as any one else; the best bowlers will be very heavily han dicapped, giving all an even chance. If you don’t want a turkey, the cress committee not being over strong and rather delicate wojld be pleased to re ceive such a gift. We thank you! All joking aside fellows, come out and have the sport of bowling for the ex ercise will do you good and help digest the Thanksgiving dinner much better. The only stipulation attached by the committee is that all special games must not be started before 8 o’clock p. m. and the last game to be started before 11 o’clock p. m. This gives you three whole hours of fun. Since our last issue when we spoke of the gymnasium, four people have spoken to us, saying we could count on them if it ever was built. This makes an actual count of 29 whom we have heard say the same thing. We cannot say how many others have told other members the same, but it is a sure bet we are not the only ones who have heard it. We would like to hear more on this Gym subject from the other members. Its a sure thing it will bring in new members, new games, new dances, and improvement to the Club and more money into the treas ury. In other words it will be the making of the Freenort Club. We have heard that some of the members said it is taking too much of a chance. Would they consider increasing their business as too much of a chance? Isn’t life a chance nowadays? Busi ness itself is a chance; if you do not take a chance now and then you and business are going to fail in the end. | We say build the gymnasium and in crease the Club’s business. “ Too much of a chance,” might have been a good saying about the time when Columbus discovered America, still he took a chance; he was not sure the world was round and he might sail off the edge at any tirnN^, but he took the chance and made good. President Wilson is going to take another chance. .These things mentioned are chances. But the Freeport Club will be taking no chances when it decides to build that gymnasium.

Miss Tittis, principal of the Columbus Avenue School, sent us some eight or nine of the essays written by the pu pils of the 6A Grade, from which to make a selection.

We passed these on to the edi tors of the Nassau Post and South Side Ob server, without telling them what selection ive made, s\ that other ones will probably appeal in those paper*.
