Board of Trade
The regular morthly meeting of the Freepart Beard of Trade was held in Fraternity Hall Weiinesdav evening, wilh I'resident Hibbard m the chair, and with a fair attendance.
Hev. August C. Karkau, pastor of the I.ulheian Church, was elected an honi rary mcn.ber.
The committee appointed on improv¬ ing the grouiins around the cai non in front of .Smith & Bedells drug store reported that as soon as the ground be¬ came in fit condition, action wiu'd be takeii toward having the place improv¬ ed and I enced in.
I Wm. P. Jones, chairman of the Ex¬ ecutive Coniniit'ee, breught up the subject of a suitable name for "Name- lei-s lioukvard, aa it ai^prnpriately calleil by one of the li.eal papers," and said that he had had sugge-'^ted to him the names of Foster l.ouKvard, Hibbard Avenue, Lawience Line, Jnnes .Alley, Kiefer I'athvv-'y and Wal¬ lace Parkway, but that personally lie would object U, having ar;y stnet in the village of Freepnrt named after him--if it was in Rnusevelt he would be willing.
ll was decided that the name of City Bm.lpvard hu recomnii'iuied as the i!:ii;ie mt:sl appropriate for tho street, il lieing stated that If the village of 1 fi|iiirt would take ollicial action to- w.;id ni.mil p the street (ity lloule- vard, thai the village of Rockville Centre would do likewise.
The movement lo have a boulevard extending along the pipe line from Rosedale to Amityville, connecting with a similar stretch of road to be construct; d in the buiougbi of Brook¬ lvn and C^uec's, was hrouuht up, and the sense of the Board was in favor ef the proposition, but as there are yet no definite plans under way in Nassau County, action waa deferred until a later meeting.
Dr. A. F. Witmer, Meaith Oflicer, waa present, and addressed the Board on the urgent need of a sewerage sys¬ tem in the village at once. Tl.is evoked consideralile discussion, and the question was asked Dr. Witnier whether this woulil be a tax against all the prnperty in the village or only against the property on the streets which received the direct ben>?lit of the sewers. Dr. W itmer replied that this was all accordir.g to the way the proposition vvas submitted and accept¬ ed ty the village. William F. Jonea said Ihat sewerage for Ihe village as a whole was not necessary, that there mighi. be a few places which needed it, but the village as a whole di.^ not. J. D. Kiefer thought that a syitem, onco installed, would prove of incalcu-I lalde benetit lo the village, that it wnuld have to be installed to he fully appreciated, althmigh we might have some idea at the present time of the benefit, (idorge Walla.e was in favnr of the proposition provided that thel property m the streets on which tlie sewer? were laid hnre the cost of the installation and maintenance.
It was dec'ded that a committee of three be appointed to appear before the Village Board of Trustees and urge that the prnpoaiiion of seweiw lie placed before the ta.xpayers for action at the next election, with the provision as i atated above. Dr. Witmer, J. D. ! Kiefer nnd George Wallace were ap¬ pointed the committee.
Frank A. Wood, ("ounty Sealer of Weights and Mea^ urea and a member, of the Rooaevelt Board of Trade, ap-¦ peared and spoke in reference to hit! wiirk, and particularly to a bill now | before the Legislature, and known aa | Assembly Rill No. 188, which provided that all packages or containers used 1 for any kind of canned vegetables,' fruits, cereals -anything which was; put up in a can or package—must state \ on the outside of the container the net I weight ef the article contained. Mr. | Wood thought this measure would tend; to do away with a great deal of thel short weight practiced among some j large manufacturers, and he thought; with the recommendations of the vari-! ous boards of trade and civic bodies, a 1 very useful piece cf legislation would; be enacted. 1
The Board instructed the secretary i to write the Senator and Assemnlyman i of our district giving the endorsement i of the Bourd lo tbe bill as spoken ofj by Mr. Wood. I
Mr. Wood slated that since takingi oflije he had weighed over 400 loada of; coal in Nasaau Cuunty, and had yet to | find one that *as short weight. He invited any one having complaints of this kind to make them to him and he would see that they receiveil immedi¬ ate attention.
It is surely wisdom to escape colds if yuu can and Smith & Beiiell say m their ad that you can and they are ready to guarantee it. It
I Local Topics
(By the Editor)
i The Brooklyn Eagle has an interest¬ ing item on Teddy Nnensdnrfer, cross- tcuiiiry runner and champion walker, sonicwhal similar to one published in the lieview in November. The last two paragraphs, however, are new, and read as follows : [ "Nuensdnrfer intends to run weekly cross-country runs and walks threugh F'reeport and adjoining villages if he can win the cor.sent of the v illage trus¬ tees to hold tiem on Sunday. ' The village board is a liberal one, and it 19 likely that the nrivileee nf lull ing weekly runs will I.e granted. It will meet with ri ;,iular a|jproval. it is .-^aid."
For the benefit of the Eagle corre.-- pundent, we hasten to assure him that the present Village Board is not "lib¬ eral minded" enough to alinw tvery- biiLiy to violate the sanctity ot the Sab¬ bath, and if they were, the penal code Seetiuii 214."), relative to public sp^.tts on Sunday, plainly pruvid. .1 thai 'all sho ling, hui t:ng, eic, or olher public .¦^perts, t'xercises, etc , Ufiun the first day <if the week are prnhibiteil."
If it is ni.'rely plained tn hive sev¬ eral men run fer exeic .¦'" lli:' ¦. iil-.i;e authoriiies might have no au'J r; i'v. bul a racing contest on the highways on the Sabbath day is plainly a vin- latien of the law.
While it may seem rather eguti^ticil for me to take a stand against Ihe law con.niittee of the State Volunteer Fire¬ men s Association in their urguiiient, which if true, is equally absurd, that in order to become an exempt fireman and secure a certificate of exemption, a man must resign from his company. I would like very much to have some¬ body intereated explain lo me the meaning of Article 10, Chapter 20, of the Consolidated Laws of 1910, dehn- ing the (jiialilications of an exempt liremen, which very plainly says, and it seems to me in understandable Eng¬ lish,
"An exempt volunteer fireman is ' hereny declared to be a person who as a member of a volunteer fire company duly organized under the lawa of the Slate of New York, shall have at any time after attaining the age of IS years, faithfully and actually ;ier- formed service in the protection of life and property from lire within the ter¬ ritory immediately protected bv the ciiiiipany of which he is a member, nnd while a bona tide resident and, of full age, an elector therein for a period of tive consecutive years."
The Board of Education has filed its reply to the appeal by Prof. Leon Smith lo the Stale Educalion Depart¬ ment at Albany, from the action of the Biiard discharging him as [irincipal of the sctiool.
Our request for a copy of the reply from the Board was not granted. Mr. Smith said that ne did not have a copy to spare, and ne did not think it wnuld require any elabor ilions, as the feel¬ ings and idea of the Board were gei.er- ally known.
It is understood that the reply is merely the statement of the members reasons for dismissing Mr. Smith.
I have had the misfortune to get my name niixl up in the ?cho')l squabble. I'rof. Smith kindly sent me a copy if the letter he sent tu the school hoard when they offered him I'lof. Barneb' poaition, and requested me to publish it, and when President Smith ask me to make an affidavit to that effect I could not find no valid reason for re¬ fusing and accordingly gave him the necessary affiadvit. As I told Prof. Smith, I regretted being obliged to do this as 1 had tried to ke< p clear of the whole discussion, which being a ques¬ tion of opinion rather than of facts in niHiiy casea was beyond my province as your local editor.
After the entertainment at the Opera House Tuesday evening several who attended told me I ought to "roast" the management for such poor service. A "roasting" would have felt good about that time, with almost zero weather and no attempt at even getting the radiator pipes warm. I don't think I will consider it in my line of duty to do thia "roaaling" but frequent occurrences such as thia will not tend to increase the proceeds for renting of the hall during the winter, for if it is allowed lo remain cold people will not come out and if they will not come out the hall will soon be closed.

Answer to
Prof. Smith's Appeal
That the local school beard is still divided over the matters of policy that have arisen in the system during the last year was again deinerstrated Wednesday, when an answer was sent by three uf the tive menhcrs of tbe school board of the appeid for rein¬ statement filed abri;t two weeks ago li> Roy Leon. Smith. State Commis- sa-ner of Educatiiin At drew S. Draper, received the majority re; iy Ihursday. The nam.es of Samuel K. htrilh. Wal¬ ter Cozzens and Willia.Ti H. Sammons are attached to it. Albin N. Jchnson and Henry L. ( ra-dell will submit in¬ dividual statements.
.\ copy of the reply was served on Roy l.eon Smitii ly counsel for the majority, Gillen & Weiler ef Jamaica. The reply contains nine -eparate an¬ swer? to the aVpeal fer reln,^tateln» nt; seven nn re sep irate ai:swers, at! davits liy President Satnuel R. Smith and Smith F. Pearsall, editor of the Nas¬ sau County Review, and a rrpoi I from Mi-sC:.riie .-Atkinson, firmer acting superintendent.
In part the majority stated that Principal Sii.rih was not dismissed alone upon a leltej; written to the board by the aiipeliantj but also be¬ cause of the publicatie.n and notoriety given the said letter by Pre-:tdenl Smith. In answer to the seventh par¬ agraph of the appeal, the maji rity members state they 1 isnustel the ajv pellant, and cancelled his certract, for insLihordinatiun .^in.l wilful attack upon the board, "thereby abusing the trust and confilerce repnseit in him by the said Bean! it' Eucation, intending to raise a spir t of iiisub.>r<lination and tending injuriously to efTect the said school discipline, which was in viola¬ tion uf the appellait's contract with the t>oard."
The three respondents add that Prin¬ cipal Sriiith never denie'.i having writ¬ ten the letter fer which he was dismis¬ sal, never dcnii d llie accuracy uf the same as pulili?hed, but admitted writ¬ ing the same. They declare that "said article was published in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, a piiper having a laige ^ circulation in Schi ol District No. '.', and that the "tfect ef the publication of such letter waa inimical to the in¬ terest and welfare of the schools in the district and waa an act ol insub¬ ordination on the p.irt of the appellant and intended tn held up to ridicule and impair tho usefulness i.f the Roard i.f Education."
The re.-pnndent.j stite that the rea^.in the crntruct existing between the board and Rarnes vvas not termi¬ nated, waa solely because tbe board believed the contract had been terminated hy the finding of Commis¬ sioner Cui.ley, who dismibseri Barnes and revoked his license.
Trustee Albin N. Johneon filed his reply wiih Ci.mn.i»fioner Draper on Thursday. Mr. Johnson takes the stand, in a well worded riply, tbal Mr. Smith's litter had nothing to do with his positon as ptircipal of the aclii Ills; that they had ofTered Mr Smith a pobitii n, which he refused, and gave hi- upiniei s on the mglter at the same tim.e, and having been offer¬ ed the position he had a perfect right to reply as he thought proper, and that his reply was written in urder lo show his position on the Barnes question, so there could be no possible misunder¬ standing.
.Mr. Johnson also argues futher that Mr. Smith showed hie good will by as¬ sisting the acting superintendent in her work, and when the studenta went on the strike did all in his power to get them back to school, and he does not think that .Mr. Smith should have been dismissed without being given a proper hearing of which all the mem¬ bera of the Board had been notified in advance.

It Board of Trade The regular morthly meeting of the Freepart Beard of Trade was held in Fraternity Hall Weiinesdav evening, wilh I'resident Hibbard m the chair, and with a fair attendance. Hev. August C. Karkau, pastor of the I.ulheian Church, was elected an honi rary mcn.ber. The committee appointed on improv¬ ing the grouiins around the cai non in front of .Smith & Bedells drug store reported that as soon as the ground be¬ came in fit condition, action wiu'd be takeii toward having the place improv¬ ed and I enced in. I Wm. P. Jones, chairman of the Ex¬ ecutive Coniniit'ee, breught up the subject of a suitable name for "Name- lei-s lioukvard, aa it ai^prnpriately calleil by one of the li.eal papers" and said that he had had sugge-'^ted to him the names of Foster l.ouKvard, Hibbard Avenue, Lawience Line, Jnnes .Alley, Kiefer I'athvv-'y and Wal¬ lace Parkway, but that personally lie would object U, having ar;y stnet in the village of Freepnrt named after him--if it was in Rnusevelt he would be willing. ll was decided that the name of City Bm.lpvard hu recomnii'iuied as the i!:ii;ie mt:sl appropriate for tho street, il lieing stated that If the village of 1 fi iiirt would take ollicial action to- w.;id ni.mil p the street (ity lloule- vard, thai the village of Rockville Centre would do likewise. The movement lo have a boulevard extending along the pipe line from Rosedale to Amityville, connecting with a similar stretch of road to be construct; d in the buiougbi of Brook¬ lvn and C^uec's, was hrouuht up, and the sense of the Board was in favor ef the proposition, but as there are yet no definite plans under way in Nassau County, action waa deferred until a later meeting. Dr. A. F. Witmer, Meaith Oflicer, waa present, and addressed the Board on the urgent need of a sewerage sys¬ tem in the village at once. Tl.is evoked consideralile discussion, and the question was asked Dr. Witnier whether this woulil be a tax against all the prnperty in the village or only against the property on the streets which received the direct ben>?lit of the sewers. Dr. W itmer replied that this was all accordir.g to the way the proposition vvas submitted and accept¬ ed ty the village. William F. Jonea said Ihat sewerage for Ihe village as a whole was not necessary, that there mighi. be a few places which needed it, but the village as a whole di.^ not. J. D. Kiefer thought that a syitem, onco installed, would prove of incalcu-I lalde benetit lo the village, that it wnuld have to be installed to he fully appreciated, althmigh we might have some idea at the present time of the benefit, (idorge Walla.e was in favnr of the proposition provided that thel property m the streets on which tlie sewer? were laid hnre the cost of the installation and maintenance. It was dec'ded that a committee of three be appointed to appear before the Village Board of Trustees and urge that the prnpoaiiion of seweiw lie placed before the ta.xpayers for action at the next election, with the provision as i atated above. Dr. Witmer, J. D. ! Kiefer nnd George Wallace were ap¬ pointed the committee. Frank A. Wood, ("ounty Sealer of Weights and Mea^ urea and a member, of the Rooaevelt Board of Trade, ap-¦ peared and spoke in reference to hit! wiirk, and particularly to a bill now before the Legislature, and known aa Assembly Rill No. 188, which provided that all packages or containers used 1 for any kind of canned vegetables,' fruits, cereals -anything which was; put up in a can or package—must state \ on the outside of the container the net I weight ef the article contained. Mr. Wood thought this measure would tend; to do away with a great deal of thel short weight practiced among some j large manufacturers, and he thought; with the recommendations of the vari-! ous boards of trade and civic bodies, a 1 very useful piece cf legislation would; be enacted. 1 The Board instructed the secretary i to write the Senator and Assemnlyman i of our district giving the endorsement i of the Bourd lo tbe bill as spoken ofj by Mr. Wood. I Mr. Wood slated that since takingi oflije he had weighed over 400 loada of; coal in Nasaau Cuunty, and had yet to find one that *as short weight. He invited any one having complaints of this kind to make them to him and he would see that they receiveil immedi¬ ate attention. It is surely wisdom to escape colds if yuu can and Smith & Beiiell say m their ad that you can and they are ready to guarantee it. It I Local Topics (By the Editor) i The Brooklyn Eagle has an interest¬ ing item on Teddy Nnensdnrfer, cross- tcuiiiry runner and champion walker, sonicwhal similar to one published in the lieview in November. The last two paragraphs, however, are new, and read as follows : [ "Nuensdnrfer intends to run weekly cross-country runs and walks threugh F'reeport and adjoining villages if he can win the cor.sent of the v illage trus¬ tees to hold tiem on Sunday. ' The village board is a liberal one, and it 19 likely that the nrivileee nf lull ing weekly runs will I.e granted. It will meet with ri ;,iular a jproval. it is .-^aid." For the benefit of the Eagle corre.-- pundent, we hasten to assure him that the present Village Board is not "lib¬ eral minded" enough to alinw tvery- biiLiy to violate the sanctity ot the Sab¬ bath, and if they were, the penal code Seetiuii 214."), relative to public sp^.tts on Sunday, plainly pruvid. .1 thai 'all sho ling, hui t:ng, eic, or olher public .¦^perts, t'xercises, etc , Ufiun the first day |
