imr review Items for this column may be sent to Mias Elsie Hess. William 8. Christy, jr., reached Fisher's Island last Saturday evening with the 18th Coast Defence, for a two weeks’ camping trip. He is one of the valiant 801 members of the tsmons 13th. It was rather a discouraging begin ning for their summer manoeuvres, for the elements at the time of their landing showed no mercy and many a gunner from Long Island presented a woebegone appearance in hi* wet uni form. As soon as they were on terra flrma, however, they speedily forgot their discomforts and hastened to pitch tents in their excellent camping place. In a very short time “soupy was blown and the “boys\ treated to bread, butter, jam, fruit and coffee. The soldiers left the Armory in Brooklyn at six o’clock last Saturday morning and started - on foot for the N. 2nd street pier, where the trans ports were docked. Col. Grant impressed upon the boys that the two weeks’ trip was not one of mere pleasure, but rather a stren uous fortnight. The schedule includes military drill, target practice, athlet ics, infantry inspection and muster and officer calls. An order was issued that the possession of loaded guns at any time except when in actual prac tice, would result in the most rigid disciplinary action. Mr. Christy is a range finder, that is, he takes the range of ships, their distance, speed and where they should be at a given time in the event they were to be fired on. With the big guns on Fort Wright on Fisher’s Island singing their omin ous songs and winging out their blank shells, Mr. Christy, sr., fears Junior Christy will, on his return to Merrick, be able to converse with his parents and friends only with the aid of an ear trumpet. Miss Tween of Merrick is on a two weeks' vacation and is, with her moth er, certainly making the most of her holiday time. When the weather is too inclement to take trips they make the most of the movies, of which both are very fond. Miss Mamie Tween has a responsible position in a brok er’s office in New York City and her faithful and conscientious work per formed in that capacity has we!! earned for her the necessary respite from her arduous tasks. Miss Mary Bowne, who owns the beautiful home in which she and her mother live In Merrick, has placed the house in the market to be sold. Most of her friends and relatives are in Baltimore and she and her mother in tend locating there also as soon as the Merrick home is disposed of. Rev. William H. Littebrandt gave his Sunday School children a real treat last Thursday in the form of a picnic party “at home.” Seventy-five “kiddies\ were entertained royally and bountifully in the beautiful grounds about the church and Pariah House. They had all kinds of sports—games, races, contests and last, but surely not least, especially in the eyes of lit tle ones, a “Lady Bountiful’’ feast; a feast of substantial food as well as dainties in the form of ice cream, lem onade, cake, etc. The little ones had a jolly good time and returned to their homes at five, a thoroughly happy, tho tired crowd of “kiddie” humanity. The idea of having a picnic “at home” or iginated in the fertile brain of Rev. Littebrandt, who considers the max im, “safety first,” an all important one. The children were not exposed to the drowning danger or other dangers alwaiyi accompanying picnics and ex cursions. A most interesting meeting of Mer rick Hook & Ladder Co. No. 1 took place in the fire hall on Tuesday even ing last presided over by Foreman Hays. Usually during the “dog days” meetings of any kind are slimly at tended, as home comforts are consid ered first. The exception, however, prevailed in this instance, as over 50 per cent, of the members were pres ent, and the meeting was a harmoni ous one. The company has been considering securing additional fire apparatus for some time back and as the motor truck fund, created for this purpose, is now nearing four figures, keen in terest is displayed in what shall be purchased in the best interests of the community. The matter of a new truck was gone over, but it seemed to be the consensus of the meeting that the chemical engine has done, and can still do efficient duty and that what was most needed was a hook and lad der truck suitable for carrying a num ber of the members in response to fire calls.

C. e present and both gave interest ing addresses and information regard ing the product of their company, trith all data regarding their high class ma chine, with prices, etc. After they had withdrawn, a committee consist ing of Messrs. B. W. Miller, C. O. Col vin and Eugene Carpenter, was ap pointed to delve further into the mat ter of the company’s requirements and report results st the next meet ing. The members of the committee are thoroughly well qualified to know just what is what in the way of any motor apparatus, and no doubt their recommendations will be of value to the company. A communication was received from Company No. 2 with reference to the plan of the twq companies Amsolidat- ing, which project, however, has been abandoned for the present at least, although No. 1 is still open to sugges tions in the matter, and feels justi fied in its actions. An interesting communication was received from Miss Elsie Hess, out- thoroughly pleased at the interest shown in the company by Miss Hess, and no doubt her suggestions will bear fruit to the end that sufficient funds can be raised to procure whatever new apparatus is finally decided upon. Louis J. Schneider, who was elect ed to membership s t the last meeting, was present and received a royal wel- The entertainment committee made final reports on the reception and of June 5, the Fourth of dance of June 5, the Fa July celebration and the package party of Jnly 24 and turned a considerable sum of money over to Treasurer Major Christoff el as the happy result. Plans are being matured for the Labor Day event, which will no dpubt be as suc cessful, if not more so, than the 4th of July celebration. The meeting was like an old home week in that members who had not been in attendance for some time were there, and better still, they stated they ■would be regular attendants hereafter. Recording Secretary Kasschau and Financial Secretary Reuter were busy men, but both seemed happy in their work, in view of the good turnout and encouraging prospects for the future. Merrick Social Club Meeting The Merrick Social Club held its monthly meeting in the Parish House on Monday evening with a fairly good attendance. President Kell conducted the pro ceedings of the meeting, and he is cer tainly becoming adept in wielding the gavel. Secretary Otto ably assisted him and Miss Bertha Block, the treas urer, was certainly in evidence in an endeavor to “corral” every possible nickel in the possession of the mem bers. The club is to be congratulat ed in having Miss Block in the im portant office of treasurer, ss she is always on the lookout for the finan cial interests of the club. The entertainment committee report showed a tidy balance realized at the last dance, and plans were outlined for another dance of a novel character, to be held in the early fall.

FAMILIES SUPPLIED Nothing is more terrifying to the mother, nor more distressing to the family, than baby’s sickness.. Fortunately, in most cases, the sickness is of short duration. Baby ailments develop quickly and recover with equal speed Sometimes colic develops and goes in an hour’s time. But if it lasts a day or two days, a chiropractor should be called at once. It is common ex perience among chiropractors to be able to stop colic that has been running for days or weeks, in one adjustment. This is not always true, of course, but it indicates the responsiveness of children. Keeping the spine in order through infancy is laying the foundation of vigor for life. INFANTILE PARALYSIS CORRECTED “My son Paul was stricken with infantile paralysis. In the hos pital for weeks, the case was pronounced hopeless. The hospital treatment was continued several weeks at home without results. “Then I began taking him for three chiropractic adjustments per week. In three weeks he was able to walk again, and today he plays like other children.” Mrs. M. D. Smith. Sworn statement on file THERE IS N 6 CHARGE FOR CONSULTATION CARL P.
