JUNIORS "PASTE" SENIORS.
Last Monday moming, while the Seniors of the High School were calmly aleeping, the Juniors invaded the town wiht their "procs." Armed with the proclamations, paste, brushes and lad ders, they started at 2 a. m. and by 5 had sidewalks and fences everywhere covered with the large sheets, de¬ nouncing and ridiculing the upper classmen. A large number were also placed in the morning papers. At six o'clock the Seniors discovered tha work and undertook to scrape down some of the "procs" on the school. Here a lively scrap took place. When an onlooker aaw the fighting, which seemed to be too real, he telephoned for the police, but the oflicer who was sent soon returned, seeing that it was nothing but good-natured rivalry. As school time approached most of the posters were destroyed, yet from those shown in the school, all the studeirts read their contents. The Seniors are now planning revenge.
Regents examinations will be held in the schools throughout the coming week.
Laat Friday evening the Senior Class gave a very enjoyable Salamagundi party in the High School. Refresh¬ ments were served and dancing in¬ dulged in. There were about thirty- five .present.
Tomorrow evening the annual recep¬ tion to the baseball team will be held in the High School, to which a large number of guests have been invited.     ;

Reading by Mrs. Kerr
A  delighted audience of ladies gath¬ ered at the cottage of  Mrs. F. Marion Davis, Wednesday afternoon,  to listen to a reading given by Mrs.   Kerr,   the wife of Rev. F  M. Kerr, pastor of the Presbyterian Church   at   Hempstead. I Mrs. Kerr took   for   her  reading  the "Tomorrow" of Percy   Mackaye,    "A Story   in Positive   Eugenics."    Being deeply imbued with the significance of this subject, she brought  to  the  con¬ sciousness of her listeners a keen real-' ization of the message—a message re¬ lating  to  one of   the  most  discussed questions of the day.    As this wonder-; ful drama has not yet   been  presented ' in America, it was a great privilege to hear so beautiful an interpretation   as given by Mrs.    Kerr,   whose   graceful ; enunciation and phrasing quite pleased her audience. 1
GETTING NEWS. The following intereating instance of the trouble we have in getting news, even for small itema, came to my at¬ tention last week. I wanted the score of the game between the married men and the single men of the Freeport Club. The first man I asked, who was a member of the Club and attended part of the game, said he thought it was 13 to 9. The second thought it was 20 to 9, and my third informant said it was 21 to 11.    I let it go 21 to
NO SEPARATE HEALTH BOARD. Evidently thinking our Village Trus¬ tees have not enough work to attend to, the present legislature has passed a law, as noted in our last issue, legis¬ lating out of oflice all local Boards of Health, town and village, and provid¬ ing that their work niust be done by Village Boards.
CREDIT WHERE IT BELONGS.
The   following   item   is   from   last week's Observer: Editor Observer:
Will you please publish the follow¬ ing? We think it will interest your readers in Freeport.
"If any of we country editors copy item from a Brooklyn paper, the an Brooklyn paper sets up a howl, claim¬ ing that we have stolen their "brain¬ child." We have no criticism, how-! ever, to make of the fact that both our prominent Brooklyn dailies secured a good item from the Review last^ week regarding the coming wedding of Miss Powers We are all willing to dissem¬ inate news, and when the representa tive of those papers have not time or ; opportunity to get in touch with a par¬ ticular good item like this, we have no objection tp them taking it from the Review."—Nassau County Review.       i
Oh. say not so, Bro.   Pearsall.    The i Brooklyn newspaper men saw the story i in the Observer.    It did, however, ap¬ pear in the Review we note.
(Signed R. W. S. \
J. J. N. ;
From   the   initials   1   presume this item was from brother scribes Suther-1 land   and   Nolan,    reporters   for   the Brooklyn Times and Eagle.    My read- ' ere will note I did   not  mention  them or their papers, but their consciences seemed to have  troubled   them,  and I' am glad they confessed  they  got  the ' item   from a country  weekly,   rather than  first hand.    It  will   relieve  my conscience too the next time I take  an item from their papers without giving them credit.
Freeport Wins
at Patchogne
In the horae hose conteat at the tournament at Patchogue Thoraday, the only conteat in which the Freeport Fire Department waa expected to car* ry off the honora, Hoae 1 came within five seconds of tying the world'a rec¬ ord for thia event. Their time waa 1 minute and six seconds, the record of 1 minute'and 1 second being held by DeRaismes of Woodhaven; the prire was a cup nearly two feet high. Pat¬ riot Hose won second prize, a cup, in 1 min., 20 1-5 sec, and Bayview Hoae was only three-fifths of a second slow¬ er, doing it in 1 min., 20 4-6 sec.
In the Individual Ladder Climbing, Chester Raynor of Hose 1 was tied for third place with Clifford Macevoy of Rockville Centre and George Lewiay of Huntington, and in the run-off Ray¬ nor secured fourth prize, a half-dozen silver oyster forks.
The complete resolts will be pub¬ lished in next week'a paper.

DON'T OWE SO FAR. Village Clerk Shea calls my atten¬ tion to an error in reporting the Vill¬ age Board minutes when I stated some of our users of water had owed ever since the village was incorporated and says the longest outstanding account is six year«. I am sorry I misunderstood this. The reporters table is practical¬ ly in another room from the Board room and when the Trustees talk in low tones with their back to the re¬ porters it is quite possible to misun¬ derstand them and I certainly thoaght I heard the statement as quoted, but it is evident I did not.

At the last regular-^meeting of the Village Board of Trustees, Treasurer S. Dimon Smith submitted his monthly report, showing the following balances in the various funds:

The Rockville Centre Observer re- I lates the following interesting sketch I of the late Charlea L. Wallace: I On Tbarsday, May 24, 1883, at the I formal opening of the Brooklyn Bridge, I the parade across the bridge waa led j by Preaident Chester A. Arthur, es¬ corted by Charles L. Wallace. Charlea waa there to aee and report the event, in which, besides the President, Cab¬ inet officers, Governora of statea and oflicers of many municipalitiea partici¬ pated. Various individual membera of the reception committee had been designated to escort the dignitariea in the formal parade across the bridge, but the police failed to control the crowd at the entrance and some failed to reach their place in line. With true newapaper instinct to "get tbere" ander any circiimatancea. and there aeeming to be hesitation aa to wbo waa to eacort Preaident Arthur, Chwiea roae to the eofergencr, and no one aeemed to realize tttat am was not the deaignated one to eacort the Preaident.
