■'*- ' ‘it GARBAGE AND ASH MATTERJMSCUSSED To be Included in Next Budget, Unless Special Election Is Held Several important items were be fore the Village Board in session on Wednesday afternoon, but none of them could be acted on decisively with out further deliberation. The village president was empow ered to confer with the village coun sel as to the best course to pursue in the interest of the gas consumers of Freeport. The solution of the prob lem will hinge on the question of who is the most powerful, the Supreme Court or the Public Service Commis sion. The court handed down an in junction restraining the company from collecting more than' $1.40 and the Public Service Commission has grant ed them authority to collect $1.75 pending final decision in the matter. The various taxi companies in the village filed reports ,of rates charged and tiie question of a uniform rate for all will be .taken up. The very important question of gar bage and ash disposal was brought before the Board by Dr. Runcie, Health Officer, and will probably be included in the next town budget. The Freeport Railroad was served with a notice that the tracks on Front street must be fixed within five days, according to the terms of the fran chise, or else the village would fix them at the company’s expense. ------------- ♦ ------------- NASSAU COUNTY REVIEW ________ t RAIN THINS CROWD Vavdevihe At Elks Club Best Of the The heavy rain of Saturday even ing prevented many from seeing the best vaudeville that has been given at the Elks Club this season. Preparations Had been made for large attendance and a particularly strong bill had been enga'ged for the evening by the A1 entertainment com mittee under Archer B. Wallace, but Pluvious intervened, preventing a good many from getting out of their homes. The bill was arranged in accordance with big time vaudeville programs and contained acts ranging from magic to singing and dancing. Many of the best known theatrical stars that twin kle on the Great Dry Way are begin ning to come to Freeport for the sum mer and the shows that the Elks stage from now on, will probably be ablaze tvith the brilliance of New York satel lites. Saturday evening’s performance was as good as can be seen at the Palace, or elsewhere in the realm of the “two a day,” and the weathetimade it par ticularly unfortunate, for those who could not be there.

General Washington ar rived with six thousand soldiers in time to turn about what is called Lee’s Retreat. We then visited the famous Old Tennent Church which was riddled with shot and bullets.

He said that it was as good as any in the city and that he was going to look in to the matter of some sort of compen sation for firemen who are injured, or who lose their lives in the performance of their duty. He also spoke of the fact that the electric lighting plant is in need of repairs and that between fifty and seventy-five thousand dol lars will be needed for the purpose. Raymond J.
