* ^ ounty Review FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1919 VoL XXH, No. 39 AROUND THE TOWN (B. T. B. C.) bile accident where the car ran up the rfidewalk and knocked the fence down, at the northeast comer of Mer rick Read and Ocean Avenue (instead of the northwest comer as printed). Mrs. B. says that she had previously had a conference with one of our vil- lage police and he agreed that she K E t E B s ' „ with a very nice letter of regret for the annoyance which she considered mighty nice. So do I, and it ie quite possible that if I lived at that corner I might keep the fence up myself, be- beeauae we do not all think alike; but at the same time I personally wish it wae not there and incidentally I think that piece of property would\ look much prettier without the fence, stand- ink off and above the road as it does, but that, too, is another question. I read in the Hempstead Inquirer that the Law Committee of their| Chamber of Commerce, agitating city government m that village, issued a statement, saying that they “feel duty bound to state’’ that they hope to re duce the cost of govei-5— x*- bringing it lower if posi sum now needed by the village o ■ governing the city ssible than the by the v author ities. The calibre of the men who are agitating this movement is too high for anyone to believe that they are trying to deceive anybody, which brings us to the necessary conclusion that they are very much in ignorance , regarding municipal affairs and the ' cost of governing cities, for if Hemp stead is ruled at a less cost under city government than it is as a vil lage, I feel safe in saying that it will have the record of being the first city which has that novel, very novel, ex perience. An item in this column on the 12th inst. dealing with the right of way of automobiles, has caused consider able discussion, owing principally to general lack of, knowledge of the law, notwithstanding the Secretary of State has called attention to it, and cases have been tried under it in the Supreme Court and decisions ren dered accordingly. The law plainly provides that cars on the right always have the right at intersecting corners, excepting where locdl traffic regula tions are provided, with a traffic offi cer on duty to\ regulate the traffic.. The case we cited of Mrs. Von Tileer and Mies Miller, comer Long Beach Avenue and Smith Street, was not to enter into a question of the techni calities of this case, as to who might have reached the comer first, and who was going fast and who was goipg slow, and no reflection upon the driver of either car. Mrs. Von Tilxer took from my writing that I meant she was to blame for the accident That was not the idea, nor was the item writ ten in that way, but merely to em phasise the law. I might say that at thfc same time I had a discussion with one of our local automobile dealers who was willing to bet me that in a case at Court the driver of the Ford car, which struck the National, would have to pay the damages, notwith standing the law. I told him I was not betting on the decision of the Jury at Court, but upon the law itself, and was not well enough acquainted with the actual facte in this case to want to take any chance on them. I have known Mrs. Von Tileer, so far as her driving cars is concerned, for several years, and have never known of her being in an accident, and in no way re flected upon her ability to drive a car, nor did I enter into a discussion of the facts ia this case. My point was to emphasize that she did not have the right of way simply because she was traveling on Long Beach Avenue which was a more frequented street than Smith Street. If Miss Miller was driving her car very fast and did not pay proper attention to the crossing, for instance, this would be a question of law, in which we were not interest ed. The only fact ia that a car on the right has the right of way, and a car om the left must be prepared to atop for it at any crossing. Automobile drivers are 99 per cent, ignorant of this law, as are also mem bers of police forces in various vil lages where ute have asked them re garding it, in most cases never having heard of the law, and wanting' to ar gue that there^ wai no’ such law in several instances. This is the reason I took the law for my “aermon,’’ and not to try to enter into an argument as to who was to blame m that case, or to make any reflection that Mrs. Von Tileer was careless in her driv- ing. .

While the committee would have liked to have invited everybody who ha* had any share in the work, there is no hall large enough for this,1 so it was limited to the active workers on the several committees who had contin ued in the work until it finished, in vitations being sent out by the chair man of the respective committees, namely, the House, Canteen, Enter tainment -and Girls’ Work Commit tees, and lift responded. The dinner was in charge' of the Crystal Lake House and the cost was paid by the diners, with the addition of some ma terial left at the Club House, the menu including sovp, salad, fish, roast turkey and vegetables, ice cream, cake, cofifle, cigars and candy.

LOCAL TOPICS CenMOeiits and expianatleoe oa t eatlrely e l a newB nature, ea rUlage affaire, by the editor. Commuters and Soldiers The following is\ from one of the Rockville Centre papers, which used to brag about its commutation figures: * “The public is asked by the men in charge to assist in getting to gether an authentic list of the men who were in service. Over 200 are known to have served, but the pres ent lists show only about half this number.” This is the first effort we have not iced in any of the Rockville Centre papers to secure, an authentic list of the Service men, or any interest dis played on the part of the newspapers in such a project. Perhaps the news papers are not to blame, as there is not neaP so much money in it as in “playing sucker\ for political bosses. That is not what we started out to say however, but merely to remark upon the claim that over 200 were,, in the list, in a village which t r i ^ to put it self in a class with Freeport where the list of Service men includes nearly 600 names.

Proud of His Home Town The following letter from one of our Freeport men, who served with the 367th Infantry (Buffaloes) is re ceived by the secretary of the Free port Welcome Home Committee, y d passed on to the people of Freeport who made this young lad, with our others, so proud of the home town: Your letter of the 9th was received and also the medal and I am certain ly proud of both. Words cannot express my apprecia tion of the Joy that you have brought to me, and I am sure,' to others. I once thought that I was forgotten since my return, but I see that the good people of Freeport haven’t ov erlooked any of the boys who did their share without grumbling. . So you cun see how proud I am of my medal, for it is more than I expected, and mom also than this big City of I (Mere Freeport Newg ee Page 8) If you cannot your furnace, try coal dust.

Thanking you again for your kind- ness. I Sincerely yours, JOHN H. BUSSELL. 69 Crescent Street, Long Island City. Don’t Know What They Are Asking For We wish our neighbors in Rockville Centre who are fighting so hard for a “subway\ at the depot, would please come over and smell of ours. We have remarked to this effect before, but it seems that the smell “improves\ with age. We cannot think of Anything to compare with it excepting the smell that used to be so natural as old ferry boats running across from Brooklyn and Long Island City to New York—only this one is a lit tle bit worse. It is an interesting proposition to try to hold your breath and run through the subway, but if you fail before you get half way thru you need a gas mask. A Question of Numbers The Hempstead Sentinel says: “ War Veterans organize Ameri can Legion Post. Hempstead Post should be the largest in Nassau County.\ Perhaps it should be the largest in the County, but we beg to advise the Hempstead Sentinel that it was not started that way, with 16 charter members against some 65 or 70 in Freeport, nor d* we expect it to get that way, although we do not antici pate the proportion ip Freeport will be so much larger as it was in the pe titioners. Looking for Addressee of Parents of Freeport Boys Killed in Service The secretary of the Village of Freeport Official Welcome Home Day, Smith F.

A\. Gately had a considerable amount of building material stored in the bam. It is not known how the fire started. The loss estimated at about $3,000. Offer to Assist American Legion * At the gathering of the War Camp.
