NASSAU , LOCAL MAN IN PL A N E FA L L S IN B A Y | AEROPLANE CRASH ’d e b Decking at. Opening of Police Air Station— Plane Falls Into Sea, Weltin'; the Crew , The opening of the Shore Road Air Stetiori of the police department of New York on October 23 , was marred by on# accident when T. Jerome Pen ny of Freeport was in a seaplane that crashed into the ocean. ’ The plane was of the tri-plane de sign and while attempting to land, it Went into a “side slip” when only a few feet above the water. It is some thing that is impossible to get out of unless the machine is at a sufficient altitude. It was just such an acci- xlent that killed ex-Mayor Mitchell of New York. The plane landed on the crest of a Swell caused by a passing steamer and was overturned, throwing-1 the crew into the water. Major J. J. Cans, owner of the plane, was the pilot. He is command er of the Staten Island Division at ithe New Dorp Air Station from which .the start was made. With him at the time were A. Sim mon# and Sergeant Major T. Jerome Penqy, who lives in Freeport. 1 \ V ijfUk-T— * T? ii< Ro/»ve'*TervivY.

Rowe III—Track Barely Escapes Crash With Traiq One of the greatest events that \Merrick has ever witnessed in the way of amusement will be a monster minstrel show soon after the holidays. Merrick is rife with talent and a rare treat is looked for. There’ll be no •disappointment, for the whole affair is piloted by versatile, wonderfully active W. S. Christy, aided by his tal ented son, W. S. Christy, jr., and a re markably gifted corps of aids. The minstrels are under the super vision of an entertainment commit tee, but the bulk of the work falls upon good-natured Mr. Christy. Eu gene Carpenter, though capable, has been unable to give the work the at tention it needs, on account of press ing business and Robert Kell is phy sically unahk to do so at present. There are* about twenty men drill ing in the singing and they are re ported as doing remarkably well. Among them are: Arthur Hewlett, Rudolph Koeppel, Antonio Canini, Charles Faust, Frank Colvin, Charles Rowe, Arthur Otto, Louis W. Schnei der, W. B. Lawson, George Mulcahy, M. E. Powell, Charles J. King, Philip Gunzenhauser, Joseph Sarro, Wallace Fritz, Samuel Scirica, Gus Muller, William Seaman, William Reiter, Syl vester Franklin. Feeling that it would be more interesting to have a number of ladies also take part, the Misses Maud and Ruth Gunzenhauser, Kath ryn Reich and Bertha Block have join- and will take the parts of “Dinahs” and see that their “Rastvses” conduct themselves in becoming negro fashion during the evening. W. S. Christy, jr., a successful song writer, has a song coming out entit led, “You Are the Girl Of My Dreams,” which it is probable he will sing for the first time at the minstrel show. The end men are\ Arthur H. Otto, Anthony Canini, Philip Gunzenhauser and Wallace Fritz. George Mott, the turtle expert, is acting as prompter. Rinaldo R. Phillips of this village, who is a special correspondent for the Republican National Committee in New York, attended a dinner in station on Staten Island, was recovered, but was I outside of the motor. The plane total loss honor of Senator Wadsworth at the Republican Club, New York, last Wednesday evening, October 20. New Newsie While Mrs. Rogers was visiting in the city last week, Philip Gunzenhau ser acted as a capable substitute in the capacity of news vender. His ser vices and beneficient act were greatly appreciated in town and a vote, of thanks is rendered him. Miss Edith Hewlett, who has been confined in the-Hospital for three weeks, is at her home in Merrick again and doing nicely. Miss Louise Christoffel, daughter of Major Christoffel, and a great community workqr, is confined to bed with a bad attack of rheumatism and neuritis. Miss Christoffel should not become ill; she is needed too much in her manifold duties as a leader among the young ladies. Accident Averted The large Roulston truck, delivering to the local branch here, had a hair breadth escape from being caught in the dea3ly grip of the fated Speonk express last Thursday evening. Peo ple who witnessed the narrow escape and heard the wild shrill whistle of the express, say they really cannot perceive how the truck managed to escape.

A part of this amount will go toward the furnishing of the new ladies’ room in the Parish House. Rev.

Fire at Colonial Avenue About 9:00 P. M. last Saturday an alarm of fire W&s sounded from Colonial Avenue. Through an error the Free port Fire Department was called. In all 10 companies an- I swered the alarm- and when they arrived they were not need ed. The fire was what is known as “Chemical Size.” The ordinary soda and acid chemical on fife apparatuses, although , it extinguishes the fire, does its damage later to everything it’tenches. FOAMITE FIREFbAM Fire’s Worst Enebiy would have put oflt this fire in less than <U) seconds, with no further damage, as it contains no injurious dtemicaIs. It will pay, you to write NOW for a eopy of “This Must Stop,” which illustrates some interesting demonstrations of Foamite Fire- foam and we can also give you\ a demonstration to convince you.
