The Fire Council deliberated for some time over the advisability of sending tbe engine to the tournament at Hempstead, but it was finally done on the understanding that the engine was to be kept in constant touch with the power house at Freeport. Acting Chief Loonam immediately upon the arrival of the apparatus in Hempstead gave the Freeport power house the number of the Fire Headquarters at Hempstead, headquarters agreeing to look us up anywhere on tbe line if a call came, when the engine would huve been sent home immediately. Chief Loonam had also arranged for a relay team to be in readiness at Roosevelt, where a change would bave been made in tbe event of the run being neces¬ sary.
The writer heard a lireman say at Hempatead that he had been around steam engines of all descriptions for years and he never saw one handled better nor more carefully than the "fellow who ran the Freeport engine" (which was Assistant Foreman Con¬ nors) and several bystanders immedi¬ ately agreed with him. If Foreman Connor heard the remark it didn't affect his work very much, and he cer¬ tainly gave the Sea Cliff engine, which was run under ilou pounds pressure, while ho was running his at lOO, a run for their money, only being beaten by 23 inches.
A meeting of tbe Firemen's Day Committee was held Tuesday evening, at which it was decided not to issue a souvenir program in connection with the event. A contract will be signed with an amusement company to furnish all amusements on a percentage basis; ice cream and soft drinks not to be in¬ cluded in the privileges of the amuae¬ ment company, the department desir¬ ing not to give this privilege to an out¬ side concern but leaving the business to local merchants. The firemanic events are to be held on Ulive Boule¬ vard west of Ocean Ave. Entry blanks may now be obtained.
Special Election
A special village election has been called by the Village Board of Trustees to be held on Tuesday, July 9, at the truck house of Hook and Ladder Co., No. 1, when three very important propositions will be submitted to the voters of the village for their consider¬ ation.
The first one of these, and for which thf election was primarily called, ia the proposition to expend $20,000, by a bond issue, for necessary repairs and additions to the electric light and water plant belonging to the village.
As announced in our paper last week, at a special meeting of the Board and the citizens held on June 19, it was unanimously agreed by those present that such an election ought to be held and this amount appropriated for the needs of this plant.
It was shown by the report ot Preai¬ dent Hanse that the appropriation of this amount will not mean a tax upon the people, but that the plant was in condition to take care of the bonds aj they should become due from the earn¬ ings of the commercial lighting.
These who attended that special meeting were thoroughly convinced that it was a paying investment to ex¬ tend our water and lighting systems, and the only question raised was as to whether the funds asked for were enough for the extensions that should be made.
The second proposition calls for an appropriation of $15,000 for extending our present system of Peekskill gravel roads in sections of the villago not al¬ ready covered.
There are still a number of import¬ ant streets which should be covered with this gravel, and it is to be hoped that those who already have the gravel in front of their houses will do unto others aa they have been done by, and come out and vote in favor of this ap¬ propriation, which is a valuable asset to the whole village.
The third proposition, and the one which to tlie people interested is considered as important as any, if not more, calls for a decision of the people as to whether the Village Board of Trustees shall bid on the lease for sale by tbe Citv of New York, of what was formerly known as Horsfall's Pond comprising about 16 acres of land, wbich they are willing to let the Vil¬ lage «f Freeport have for $750 a year, wbich they reckon will aboot pay their taxes, etc., on this piece of property. This is a chance which the village may never bave again to get a playground for our young people, and one which should be voted in favor of witboat any oppoiition. Those who are in favor of playground* for our yoong people will certainly make an effort for this proposition, and will have their friends do likewise.
Polls open 4 to 8.

CLASS DAY.
The Class Day exercises of tbe Class of 1912 were held in the High School Auditorium on Monday afternoon, A larj^e attendance attended and listened with much interest to tbe clever decla¬ mations of members of the class. The exercises were opened by the Presi- detu'u address by Howard R. Aldridge and then followed th class history by Clifford A. Teeple. i>lr. Teeple did re¬ markably well in setting; forth the many important facts in the history of the clas.s sirce its or^ranization in 19(19. Next Miss Susie Georjie, its class poet¬ ess, rei^dered her masterpiece, "The Cla.ss Poem of l;'12," which was re¬ ceived with roars of merriment. In ; fact it was one of the wittiest selec¬ tions of the afternoon. .-Viid now the ' audience was put in a serious mood by the reading of the last will and testa¬ ment by Harold Humphrey. In this instrument the class willed all its goods and chattels to different members of the schoi;!, inciuJinjr tiie facjlty, who certainly came in fnr tlieir share of "knocks," all of which, however, were taken in good part.
After the audience had subsided from this doleful selection, Leo Schloss the "firator" of the class, gave a stirring address to the Junior Class, in wbich much good advice and sharp criticism was contained. The Juniors say "The Seitiors can't get up a program without us." Accordingly Willard Van Riper, representing the CUsa uf 1913, pre¬ sented each of the Seniors with a little token of regard. Tbese little presents, carefully chosen to meet the needs of the clasa, threw tbe audience and class as well into fits of laughter. Then the Class Prophetess, Emily Werner, ap¬ peared and told of the great and glori¬ ous futures of the different membera of this moat illustrious clasa. Teach- era and lawyers there were, and great men of every kind so that 1912 surely seems to be the great elect. Then Leonora King presented to the Janiors the Lantern of WiaJom, which the Jun¬ iors rather ungracioualy received, seeming to feel contempt for this great gift. In contrast to the bright futures predicted for the Seniors, the unhappy lot of Juniors as revealed by Louise Yeager, seemed dismal indeed. Tho subtle wit of her prophecy, however, enlivened the thoughts and kept sad¬ ness from marring tbe day. Then Beatrice Vail presented each member of the class with a token of regard, many of wbich were most cleverly thought out. The program closed by the singing of the class song, the words of which are by Miss Florence Brown, and the music specially composed by Henry J. Raymore for the class.
Altogether it waa a pleasant day from early morning, when Juniors and Sen¬ iors were capturing each otlier and locking their captives in barns, to the conclusion of the exercises when the whole claaa went to Johnston's drug store and were treated to refreshments by Mr. Werner.
The seniors presented the school with a large tablet of bronze, contain¬ ing twenty standing figures, in relief, of Presidents, statesmen and soldiers of this country.
The speech of presentation was made by Piatt Wiggins and the tablet was accepted by Charles Rubbins, principal of the acboiil.

Freeport never does things by halves. It seemed to me the stores were better decorated for a visit from a fraternal organization than Hempstead for a county firemen's convention.
The Trolley Company is entitled to a word of commendation for the excep¬ tional manner in which they took care of the crowds at the tournament laat ' Wedneaday. My reporter says that- from what he saw it was far better ' than at any previous time. i

Of course, we will now have a new fire alarm ssstem. The Fire Depart- nieiit has been working for this for several years, but with the valued as¬ sistance of our Rockville Centre con¬ temporary, we see no reasi'n why the system should nwt be installed next week. Thank you.
I apologize to my readers on Porter- field Place. The Village authorities assured me three weeks ago that that street would be lixt the next week but nothing has yet been d;ine, altho gravel has since been placed on South Side Avenue, Pernisy Ivania Avenue and Henry St. I pufelislit the item about Porterfield Place because I naturally supposed the Board intended doing as they assured me would be done.
Yes, the trolley company is laying a switch on Main Street, as the Review predicted it would several weeks ago, with the exception that it is doing it in the day time rather than at night, and nobody is making any objections, i";i] the Village Board oflieiaily con¬ sents. As I said before, it is a good thing for me, but I think it is a mis¬ take to allow a switch of this kind right in the heart of the village when there were several ways of getting around such a proposition.

The trolley company promises, after its new switch is installed on Main Street, to give us a fifteen minute schedule. Most of us are not so much worried about the "headway" as we are about the "leeway" of thirty min¬ utes required, when we want to catch a car, because no time-tables are furn¬ ished and the cars do not run on sched¬ uled time.
The Village Board of Trustees held a special meeting Tuesday morning, at v.hich permission was given the trolley company to lay a switch on Main Street in accordaHce with the per¬ mission previously granted by the Board of Supervisors. It has been the custom of the Village Board to send us notice of special meetings, but excep¬ tion was made in this instance, ao we can only report the meetiug from the minute book of the Board.

That Village Tax Sale
The proposition to have a village t^x aale for all unpaid taxes was discussed by the Board at the last regular meet¬ ing. Particular empbaaia waa laid upon an argument that it would cost the village all that would be derived from auch a aale for expenses.
Aa I have no idea that the Village Board has any more intention of hav¬ ing a tax jale than the previous Board, I did not take the time to explain to them, which facts they seem to bave overlooked, that, ao far as I can figure, the only expense to the village would be probably for engaging an attornev to see that the sale was in proper shape. All the other expenses, such as advertising, notifying the owners, etc., are charged up to and are an ex¬ pense on the property, and not tbe vil¬ lage.
There is over S5,000 outstanding which the village could collect by a tax sale, but if they do not so wish, the Board cf Trusteea ia not obliged to hold this sale.

It The Fire Council deliberated for some time over the advisability of sending tbe engine to the tournament at Hempstead, but it was finally done on the understanding that the engine was to be kept in constant touch with the power house at Freeport. Acting Chief Loonam immediately upon the arrival of the apparatus in Hempstead gave the Freeport power house the number of the Fire Headquarters at Hempstead, headquarters agreeing to look us up anywhere on tbe line if a call came, when the engine would huve been sent home immediately. Chief Loonam had also arranged for a relay team to be in readiness at Roosevelt, where a change would bave been made in tbe event of the run being neces¬ sary. The writer heard a lireman say at Hempatead that he had been around steam engines of all descriptions for years and he never saw one handled better nor more carefully than the "fellow who ran the Freeport engine" (which was Assistant Foreman Con¬ nors) and several bystanders immedi¬ ately agreed with him. If Foreman Connor heard the remark it didn't affect his work very much, and he cer¬ tainly gave the Sea Cliff engine, which was run under ilou pounds pressure, while ho was running his at lOO, a run for their money, only being beaten by 23 inches. A meeting of tbe Firemen's Day Committee was held Tuesday evening, at which it was decided not to issue a souvenir program in connection with the event. A contract will be signed with an amusement company to furnish all amusements on a percentage basis; ice cream and soft drinks not to be in¬ cluded in the privileges of the amuae¬ ment company, the department desir¬ ing not to give this privilege to an out¬ side concern but leaving the business to local merchants. The firemanic events are to be held on Ulive Boule¬ vard west of Ocean Ave. Entry blanks may now be obtained. Special Election A special village election has been called by the Village Board of Trustees to be held on Tuesday, July 9, at the truck house of Hook and Ladder Co., No. 1, when three very important propositions will be submitted to the voters of the village for their consider¬ ation. The first one of these, and for which thf election was primarily called, ia the proposition to expend $20,000, by a bond issue, for necessary repairs and additions to the electric light and water plant belonging to the village. As announced in our paper last week, at a special meeting of the Board and the citizens held on June 19, it was unanimously agreed by those present that such an election ought to be held and this amount appropriated for the needs of this plant. It was shown by the report ot Preai¬ dent Hanse that the appropriation of this amount will not mean a tax upon the people, but that the plant was in condition to take care of the bonds aj they should become due from the earn¬ ings of the commercial lighting. These who attended that special meeting were thoroughly convinced that it was a paying investment to ex¬ tend our water and lighting systems, and the only question raised was as to whether the funds asked for were enough for the extensions that should be made. The second proposition calls for an appropriation of $15,000 for extending our present system of Peekskill gravel roads in sections of the villago not al¬ ready covered. There are still a number of import¬ ant streets which should be covered with this gravel, and it is to be hoped that those who already have the gravel in front of their houses will do unto others aa they have been done by, and come out and vote in favor of this ap¬ propriation, which is a valuable asset to the whole village. The third proposition, and the one which to tlie people interested is considered as important as any, if not more, calls for a decision of the people as to whether the Village Board of Trustees shall bid on the lease for sale by tbe Citv of New York, of what was formerly known as Horsfall's Pond comprising about 16 acres of land, wbich they are willing to let the Vil¬ lage «f Freeport have for $750 a year, wbich they reckon will aboot pay their taxes, etc., on this piece of property. This is a chance which the village may never bave again to get a playground for our young people, and one which should be voted in favor of witboat any oppoiition. Those who are in favor of playground* for our yoong people will certainly make an effort for this proposition, and will have their friends do likewise. Polls open 4 to 8. On Tuesday afternoon the pupils if .Miss Eunice Fitcb gathered at Mrs. W. H. Cotter's where they presented Miss Fitch witb a pearl pendant in ap¬ preciation of ber faithfulness to them. GRADUATES.

CLASS DAY. The Class Day exercises of tbe Class of 1912 were held in the High School Auditorium on Monday afternoon, A larj^e attendance attended and listened with much interest to tbe clever decla¬ mations of members of the class. The exercises were opened by the Presi- detu'u address by Howard R. Aldridge and then followed th class history by Clifford A. Teeple. i>lr. Teeple did re¬ markably well in setting; forth the many important facts in the history of the clas.s sirce its or^ranization in 19(19. Next Miss Susie Georjie, its class poet¬ ess, rei^dered her masterpiece, "The Cla.ss Poem of l;'12" which was re¬ ceived with roars of merriment. In ; fact it was one of the wittiest selec¬ tions of the afternoon. .-Viid now the ' audience was put in a serious mood by the reading of the last will and testa¬ ment by Harold Humphrey. In this instrument the class willed all its goods and chattels to different members of the schoi;!, inciuJinjr tiie facjlty, who certainly came in fnr tlieir share of "knocks" all of which, however, were taken in good part. After the audience had subsided from this doleful selection, Leo Schloss the "firator" of the class, gave a stirring address to the Junior Class, in wbich much good advice and sharp criticism was contained. The Juniors say "The Seitiors can't get up a program without us." Accordingly Willard Van Riper, representing the CUsa uf 1913, pre¬ sented each of the Seniors with a little token of regard. Tbese little presents, carefully chosen to meet the needs of the clasa, threw tbe audience and class as well into fits of laughter. Then the Class Prophetess, Emily Werner, ap¬ peared and told of the great and glori¬ ous futures of the different membera of this moat illustrious clasa. Teach- era and lawyers there were, and great men of every kind so that 1912 surely seems to be the great elect. Then Leonora King presented to the Janiors the Lantern of WiaJom, which the Jun¬ iors rather ungracioualy received, seeming to feel contempt for this great gift. In contrast to the bright futures predicted for the Seniors, the unhappy lot of Juniors as revealed by Louise Yeager, seemed dismal indeed. Tho subtle wit of her prophecy, however, enlivened the thoughts and kept sad¬ ness from marring tbe day. Then Beatrice Vail presented each member of the class with a token of regard, many of wbich were most cleverly thought out. The program closed by the singing of the class song, the words of which are by Miss Florence Brown, and the music specially composed by Henry J. Raymore for the class. Altogether it waa a pleasant day from early morning, when Juniors and Sen¬ iors were capturing each otlier and locking their captives in barns, to the conclusion of the exercises when the whole claaa went to Johnston's drug store and were treated to refreshments by Mr. Werner. The seniors presented the school with a large tablet of bronze, contain¬ ing twenty standing figures, in relief, of Presidents, statesmen and soldiers of this country. The speech of presentation was made by Piatt Wiggins and the tablet was accepted by Charles Rubbins, principal of the acboiil. Commanta and azplanations not antiraly of a naw* natura, on rillafa affair* by tha aditor. Freeport never does things by halves. It seemed to me the stores were better decorated for a visit from a fraternal organization than Hempstead for a county firemen's convention. The Trolley Company is entitled to a word of commendation for the excep¬ tional manner in which they took care of the crowds at the tournament laat ' Wedneaday. My reporter says that- from what he saw it was far better ' than at any previous time. i In the issue of .May 4, "the Owl sug¬ gested e better tire alarm system fer P'rfcpport. .Are Freeporters recept¬ ive."—The Owl. Of course, we will now have a new fire alarm ssstem. The Fire Depart- nieiit has been working for this for several years, but with the valued as¬ sistance of our Rockville Centre con¬ temporary, we see no reasi'n why the system should nwt be installed next week. Thank you. I apologize to my readers on Porter- field Place. The Village authorities assured me three weeks ago that that street would be lixt the next week but nothing has yet been d;ine, altho gravel has since been placed on South Side Avenue, Pernisy Ivania Avenue and Henry St. I pufelislit the item about Porterfield Place because I naturally supposed the Board intended doing as they assured me would be done. Yes, the trolley company is laying a switch on Main Street, as the Review predicted it would several weeks ago, with the exception that it is doing it in the day time rather than at night, and nobody is making any objections, i";i] the Village Board oflieiaily con¬ sents. As I said before, it is a good thing for me, but I think it is a mis¬ take to allow a switch of this kind right in the heart of the village when there were several ways of getting around such a proposition. Subjact of Sarmona, Sarricaa of tha 'waak and othar doinga in tha churchaa and church aociatiaa The trolley company promises, after its new switch is installed on Main Street, to give us a fifteen minute schedule. Most of us are not so much worried about the "headway" as we are about the "leeway" of thirty min¬ utes required, when we want to catch a car, because no time-tables are furn¬ ished and the cars do not run on sched¬ uled time. The Village Board of Trustees held a special meeting Tuesday morning, at v.hich permission was given the trolley company to lay a switch on Main Street in accordaHce with the per¬ mission previously granted by the Board of Supervisors. It has been the custom of the Village Board to send us notice of special meetings, but excep¬ tion was made in this instance, ao we can only report the meetiug from the minute book of the Board.

It COMMENCEMENT The largest class tbat has ever grad¬ uated from Freeport Higb School re¬ ceived diplomas at the commencement in the Colonial Theatre Tuesday. Tbe exerciaea were impressive from the opening s«'lection of the orcheatra to the closing benediction of Rev. August C. Karkau. Rev. W. A. Richard opened the entertainment with prayer, and H. Bond Raymore deliver¬ ed tbe salutatory address. Hq was followed by Miss Martha Gebbardt, in a vocal selection. Charles ?. Cbapin, Ph. D., principal : of the State Normal School at Upper Montclair, N. J., spoke of school and ; business training, and compared the: two. I Peter S. Beck, valedictorian of the j claas, gave bis address of farewell, and Samoel R. Smith, for many years Preaident of tbe Board of Edacatioo, preaented the diplomaa.

That Village Tax Sale The proposition to have a village t^x aale for all unpaid taxes was discussed by the Board at the last regular meet¬ ing. Particular empbaaia waa laid upon an argument that it would cost the village all that would be derived from auch a aale for expenses. Aa I have no idea that the Village Board has any more intention of hav¬ ing a tax jale than the previous Board, I did not take the time to explain to them, which facts they seem to bave overlooked, that, ao far as I can figure, the only expense to the village would be probably for engaging an attornev to see that the sale was in proper shape. All the other expenses, such as advertising, notifying the owners, etc., are charged up to and are an ex¬ pense on the property, and not tbe vil¬ lage. There is over S5,000 outstanding which the village could collect by a tax sale, but if they do not so wish, the Board cf Trusteea ia not obliged to hold this sale.
