Father O’Toole voiced '^he sentiments of Freeport in his thanks to them. To George P. Murphy goes the hon ors for getting together and producing a show, the like of which could never be seen on Broadway under one roof at one time, not excepting Lambs Gambols and Friars Frolics. It was due to his efforts that such a splendid ~ array of acts was.available. To Fred Gray goes the honor for running things “back stage.\ Fred is one of the hardest working vacation ists of the Lights, and is ever ready to do more than his bit. To the actor folk, one and all, go the honors for entertaining with acts that ran many minutes over the al lotted time, when in their regular places on a city bill. . To Sidney Reilly at the jiiano, Wal- • ter Stanley at the violin, and William Speedick at the drum, go the honors for giving their time, and excellent . ^/music. and to Father O’Toole goes the ■ honor of being shepherd of such a «Pbck. Following the words of welcome by Father O’Toole, came the popular star of “Sometime,\ Harold Murray.

The first time that we ever saw Wil liams and Woolfus we laughed until we couldn’t laugh any more, and so it was the second and third, and so on. Tuesday evening the act was just as funny and ought to run many seasons without change. Eddie Carr tried to break in between L each act with some sort of musicaj in strument and had to be forcibly eject ed by Frank Westphal, the official an nouncer. Finally, in desperation, It was decided to allow him to appear, and so Eddie Carr, Frank Westphal and Bert and Frank Leighton, came on as the “Four Lights\ in what prov ed to be a classy little act.

Al though Paul and Clara have grown up and gone their ways, Sam and Kitty have refused to grow old and the Four Mortons were assembled again, with Martha and Joe on the younger end of the quartette. Fickleness is a bad habit, but henceforth, our allegiance must go to lovely Martha. The Four Mortons closed what had been nearly four hours of continuous entertainment and the audience that packed the house went home realiz ing that they had seen the show of the SUMMER CHRISTMAS Wednesday evening the Lights Club had an old-fashioned time, including ducking for apples.

The first Was held on Saturday, at Woodmere. There were a number of very interest ing contests, all in line with Scout work and indicating the degree of ef ficiency attained by the f,everal troops. While it was in the nature of sport for the boys it nevertheless was serious work from their standpoint. Present were five troops: Wood- mere, Nos. 1 and 2; Rockville Centre, 2, Oceanside 1 and Lynbrook 1. County Executive F.

BALDWINWATER in GOOD CONDITION Formal Inspection of Baldwin Plant Results In Favorable Report to Health Department Dr. William Rhame, town health of ficer, filed with the Hempstead town board this week a report by the state health board of the analysis of the water furnished by the Baldwin Water Company in Baldwin. The report showed the water to be in good condi- The formal inspection of the com pany’s plant was made on May 18 last by Alfred Mullikin, an assistant en gineer in the. state department of health, who transmitted the result of his investigations to Chief Engineer Theodore Horton of the same depart ment, the latter filing the inspector’s report and the findings of the depart ment with Town Health Officer, Dr. Rhame. Engineer Horton, in his report said, that the Baldwin authorities had car ried out the recommendations of the health department as made in 1915 and that while it is evident that the public water supply of Baldwin, al though not dangerously polluted at the time of the inspection, is subject to pollution, which while apparently rendered inactive in its passage thru the soil, may at any time become act ive and dangerous. Statistical information submitted in the report gives the population of Baldwin as 4,000, fifty per cent, of which is served by the Baldwin Water Company. The supply is obtained from six driven wells near Millburn creek, a half mile northeast of the village and a quarter of a mile north of one of the Brooklyn water works pump ing stations. Thirty miles of cast iron main are installed, ranging in size from 4 inches to 12 inches in di ameter. There is a tank 30 feet high and 22 feet in diameter, with a capa city of 110,000 gallons. The average daily consumption is 150,000 gallons, or an average of 75 gallons per day per capita. The health department’s engineer recommends that certain changes and corrections be made in the wells, and closes with a recommendation that the village authorities maintain a careful sanitary patrol over the area in the vicinity of the wells at all times. Definite steps have been taken by the Hebrew Congregation of Freeport towards the thirty thousand dollar edifice that they will build at Broad way and Mount avenue, Freeport, in the near future, and which will be known as the B’Nai Temple. Plans are being made for laying the cornerstone about the 15th of August, /when elaborate ceremonies will mark .Tthe occasion. AID FROM ENGLAND Check Sent Acmes the Water for the Freeport Memorial Library Miss Sara Wray, superintendent of the Eighth Avenue Mission of New York City, had a summer home in Freeport, at 268 Smith street, last summer, where she entertained thirty needy little ones from the Chelsea neighborhood in New York, where the tenements are built close together and the warmth of the sun is never felt on green grass and flowering shrubs. A personal friend of Miss Wray’s, Mary A. Hamilton, of 281 Miller ave nue has been corresponding with Miss Wray since she went to England this summer, and she sent her a copy of the Review in which there was news of the drive for the Memorial Library. In reply. Miss Wray sent the following letter, part of which read as follows: “Ashleigh, Yorkshire, England,—1 am so interested in the Memorial Li brary of Freeport and am delighted to send the enclosed check for $26, which you will please see reaches the treas urer.\ The check was brought in by Mies day at Merrick. .

On the 3rd of August the Ladies’ Auxiliary will stage a benefit at the American Theatre when the ever ready members of the Lights Club have again donated their valuable services in order to make the affair a success. The temple when completed will be equipped with every modem conven ience, and it is hoped to have it ready for the fall holidays. MERRICK ClVlC LEAGUE Monthly Meeting Takes Up Question Of Street Signs for the Village The monthly meeting of the Mer rick Civic League, Inc., was held on Friday evening, July 16, in the Par ish House of the Church of the Re deemer, President John H. Snodgrass officiating. Rudolph Koeppel served as secretary pro tern. Inasmuch as no permanent secre tary had been elected at the previous meeting to replace Harry Leich, who was obliged t<f resign on account of removal, the name of William Sr Christy was presented, and there be ing no opposition he was unanimously elected and assumed the office. Christian Bahnsen, for the auditing committee, reported the affairs of the treasurer in good shape, and furnished the League with a list of delinquent members. The committee was thank ed for its work. It was decided that the by-laws should be printed and furnished to the members of the League at the next meeting. A full discussion about lighting mat ters took place and many import ant facts brought out, the talk being indulged in by Messrs. Bahnsen, Cam- mann, Littebrandt, Doane, Clarkson and others. Mr. Bahnsen was added to the committee having that matter in charge. Rudolph Koeppel was appointed a committe to see about changing the location of the bulletin board, now standing on the north side of the rail road track; also to have same repaint- Harry Leich was reimbursed for ex penses incurred by him in connection with the Liberty Loan drives and war work, on behalf of the League and thanked for the able manner in which he carried out the wishes of the or ganization. A discussion regarding rural free delivery was also an important feat ure of the meeting, and the matter was carried over until next meeting. New stationery was passed upon and will be ordered by the secretary on instructions of the League. President Snodgrass appointed as membership committee, Messrs. W. H. Littebrandt, Francis Savona and R. Koeppel. Mr. Savona brought up the matter of placing signs on the thoroughfares, bearing street names. His suggestion was well received, fringing forth a prolonged discussion on tlie subject, and the members will investigate the matter in the interim of the meeting and report more fully in August. Altogether the meeting was a very helpful and dignified one, and is a good indication of much good work be ing done by the Civic League, all look ing to the interest of Merrick and its vicinity. — ------------------------ INCREASE IN SALARY The Rockville Centre Board of Trus tees at their meeting Monday grant ed the members of the local police force an increase In salary.

RECOVERS LOST BAG Sent from N. »Y.

L, N. Y.\ Tuesday Mre. Johnson received her bag by mail from a station in New York, but the money and valuables had been removed. There were no marks on the package whereby the sender might be identified. Mrs. Johnson believes that who ever found the bag had some honesty in them at any rate, and she is grate ful for the return of it, but she asks through the columns of the Review, that toe good work continue as she is anxious to recover the locket and the chain that were in there. They were heirlooms belonging to one now dead. The money she had, represented sav ings that were for a much needed sum mer vacation and Mrs. Johnson would appreciate the return of more of her property. _________ . SURROGATE’S COURT Henry L. Maxon, counsel to the Hempstead Town Board in the pro test by the Board against the increase last spring in the rates of the Nas sau & Suffolk Lighting Company and the Public Service Corporation, sug gested to the Board at its meeting on Tuesday that the only way to stop the gas companies from continually rais ing its rate is to establish a munici pal gas plant, or allow an outside corporation to come into the town and operate a competing plant. Clerk Gilbert reported to the Board that the Public Service Commission, through its secretary, Francis X. Dis ney, had filed with him the new tariff of the two big corporations, to be ef fective August 9, 1920, under which the two companies raised their rate to $2.25 per thousand feet of gas con sumed, and in addition thereto an ex tra $1 per month for the installation of a meter. The gas companies’ schedule calls for $2.25 per thousand for the first 10,000 feet of gas con sumed, for the next 10,000 feet $2.15 per thousand, for the next 10,000, $2.05 and for all in excess of 30,000 feet, $2 per thousand. The new schedule also gives no minimum rate and covers all fuel, heating and lighting purposes, available to all consumers, gives no maintenance discounts, no prompt payment discounts and allows for no special rules and regulations. The tariff schedule is signed by Joseph Kennedy, vice president of the Nas sau & Suffolk Lighting Company, and Henry MacDonald, president of the Public Service Corporation. The Board discussed the matter informally and after Counselor Max- son’s letter instructed him to make a vigorous protest against both the old and the new rate increase^ In his communication to the BoartL in ans wer to Clerk Gilbert's letter, Lawyer Maxson said: “It seems to me that the town should file a complaint as in the raise to $1.75. The first raise of 25 cents has not as yet been determined, owing to the ill- -otess of Public Service Commissioner .JinTjr* Barhite. I have been informed by the Public Service Commission that the hearings will be taken up in a „ short time. I think a complaint which ought to be filed on this second raise could be joined with the first com plaint. It is up to the Public Service Commission to determine the rate. “It is about time some legislation was enacted whereby on a vote of the people the town could manufacture and sell at cost gas for its inhabitants. Villages can maintain th^ir own wat er and light plants. Gas for heating and lighting purposes is fast becom ing a household necessity. Until the town can manufacture its own gas the public are at the mercy of private cor porations making gas for a profit and can only resort to a long drawn out expensive proceeding before the Pub lic Service Commission, the result of which is not at all certain and may not be satisfactory. “A town having a contract with a water works company for water may acquire the works, franchise and prop erty of the company upon a petition of .certain taxpayers and the vote at a special election. “Failing to procure legislation to authorize the town to make and sup ply gas to its inhabitants, we should have in this town competition, if pos sible. Gas is being supplied, 1 un derstand, at Oceanside by the Queens Borough Gas Company at $1.26. If it can be done, the Queens Borough Com pany should have an opportunity to supply gas throughout the town of Hempst -iad. “There is nothing to prevent the gas company in a few months from again seeking to make effective a $5 BUILDS NEW GARAGE LIGHTS PARADE Xrcher B.

ODD COINCIDENCE Marriage Licenses Given to Divorced Couple, a Day Apart An odd coincidence in the office of the Hempstead Town Clerk laat week was the issuing of a marriage license to Archer Bergen Wallace of Freeport, and his former wife, Mrs. Jeanette Bergen Wallace, also of Freeport, on ly twenty-four hours separating the filing of the applications under which each was privileged to take a new life partner. On Tuesday, July 13, the former Mrs. Wallace and Charles Christopher Storck, of 168 Church street, Free port called on Clerk Gilbert for their marriage certificate.

Baldwin Business Man Will Have a $24,000 Building The new building that is being erect ed on Merrick road, Baldwin, will be the garage of Thomas Flaherty, who is in that business at the present time. When finished, the garage will pre sent one of the most modern buildings in that line, that there is on Long Isl and. With ninety feet of brick and stucco facing on Merrick road, and all the modem improvements known to the automobile business. It will be absolutely fireproof and will have facilities for storage and re pairs, two wash stands a show window and offices, and day and night service. There will be apartments upstairs for Mr. Flaherty and family, who now live on Thomas avenue. He expects to move in about the middle of Aug ust. The success of a well run garage business has been well demonstrated by Mr. Flaherty who started in not many years ago on borrowed capital. He soon paid up all that was due and is now about to open his new building where he expects to enlarge upon the trade that has outgrown the old ga- mge. 4 -------------- WIN SIX STRAIGHT Freeport A.

The game was tied up until the seventh inning when Free port started a batting rally that brought in three runs. Rollo struck out nine men while the opposing pitcher only struck out four. Several double plays were features of the game. The management has se cured a clash with the Waterman B. B.
