When yon have twanty of these stemps yoa will receive • War Sav¬ inga Certificate. In 1922 Uncle Sam ^11 refund the money spent on W. S. SL with interest, thna Tetundhg instead of $4.13 (or whatever the ease may be) $5.00.
By buying Thrift Stampa yoa will gain in three distinct ways. The ftrst is, that you will help the eountr}'. This, of courae, is the most important one, for the United States cannot help you unless you assist it Second, you will be curing the Amer¬ ican weakness for wasting. Other nations have blamed us for years for being too egtravagant with our food and other necessary materials. Third, you will make a good investment. It ts seldom that such a high per cent, of interest is given but it is safe. There is even less danger of the U. 8. A. being vanquishsd than there is of making it« people submit to ty¬ ranny and slavery. Hence, you ben¬ efit not only your couatry but your¬ self, in buying W. S. S.
Of late there has been an enthusi¬ astic movement in our class to pro¬ cure Thrift Stampa. To encourage the buying of the same, an Honor Roll which stataa the namea of those of ua who hava these stamps, has iMen made. Of courae, the honor of having one'a name on this liat haa perauaded many papila to be owners of stamps; so there are quite a num¬ ber of namea en the Honor Roll now.
Be a patriot, not a alackerl He'p the United States, your United States that protecta yoa. Wa maat— we can—we will win thia wari Look out yoa pesabniatsi Uncle Sam will get you if yoa're not careful. What's the oae of being a alackar, handicap¬ ping the Govemment? Brace up! Do your bit by buying Thrift and War Savinga Stampa. Try and pay keek all the advantagea and oppor- tonitiea it haa so generously ahow- ered upon yoo. Show it yoa ean be depended oa—that yoa are a loyal and patriotie dtittn. Go aroand to the Poatoflee and atart a W. S. S. book—thia week—^today—now. Do yoar bit aad Uaele Sam will do the reat

We need helmeta! Naaaan Connty it 1,200 short on its quota of knitted garmenta. You most know oar avia¬ tion forces uro rapidly growing anJ the boys wear helmets even in Sum¬ mer. Helmets are not so hard to make and one can be taught at the R«^ Cross robms. Why be afraid of a little army of new counta in atitch- ing. Call your needles into aervice again. Fill the trenches of yom idle knitting bfag with wool again and get on the front line of the knitting army. One or two more alliea of needles need not frighten an Ameri¬ can knitting soldier. Start in tomor¬ row to Conquer the new stitch count nnd win the battle of the helmet. The boys need helmets. Mrs. August Bel¬ mont, who waa formerly the mud admired Eleanor Robson, will speak in Hempste&d on Friday, April 16, at 8 pt m.

Court of Appeala  Affirma S. Dimon Smith'a Judgment for $8,000
known in our history of great men; no greater diplomat has ever sat in any council and no man ever poss¬ essed higher ideals than John Bay. When, in November, 1860, John Nic- ilay, secretary to Abraham Lincoln, found his work beyond his physical :apacity he suggested that Hay be imployed as assistant secretary.
"We can't take all Illinois, with us iown to Washington," the President- alect said good humoredly; and then Lf ter s pnnse as if relentiuKi be add- :d: "Well, let Hay come." At this ':ime Hay was twenty-two years of ige. Later when Nicolay was obliged :o retire on account of broken health, lohn Hay became secretary to Presi- lent Lincoln.
In addition to the interesting ac¬ count of American politics and di- I'omacy contained in this book there 3 ono chapter which at this time possesses for us material for very ¦erious reflection. If you do not find time to read both volumes, be ^sure 0 read in Volume-H, Chapter XXVIIl The German Menace looms up. Here on page 279 can be found the now vall-known , statement which the 'Caiser made to an Englishman who reported it to Mr. Chamberlain: "If [ had had a larger fleet I would have ;aken Uncle Sam by the scruff of the neck." And on page 283, we find a very interesting paragraph which be¬ gins as follows:
"The next year, in his labor to save China, Hay had a still closer view of German methods. What he thought }f them may be summed up in his sentence already quoted: "I had al¬ most rather be the dupe of China than tbe chum of the Kaiaer."

After five years' litigation, final judgment for $8,000 was entered in the County Clerk's office on Friday Inst by Counsellor Elvin N. Edwards, on behalf of the plaintiff in the case .->f S. Dimon Smith vs. Dayton Hedges ;f Patchogue.
This aetion grew out of an assigned claim to S. ]3imon Smith, in which the Pioneer Iron Works of Brooklyn sued to recover the sum of |S,000 on two notes aggregating that sum.
The action started early in 1913, aad on tbe first trial before the late Justice Samuel T. MaddoX, & verdict was rendered for the defendant and an appeal was taken by Elvin N. Ed- wards.as attomey for the plaintiff, to the .¦Vppcllate" Division, .\nd there th° same was reversed and sent back for a new trial.
Upon thc new trial before Justice Crane, .the jury rendered a verdict for $8,000. The defendant appealed to the Appellate Division, affirmed the lower Court, and npon appeal to the Court of Appeals, the defendant was again defeated.
The litigation grew out of the build¬ ing of a large asphalt plant of the Pioneer Iron Worlis of Brooklyn for Dayton Hedges in New York City, the claim being made by Hedges that the work was not done properly and that there was no consideration for th's notes given.

No Infection in ViUage Water
Health Officer Runcie appeared at the Village Bo.ird meeting Monday evening, regarding the runlor around the village that the municipal water supply was infected, and said thore, was no truth in the report He was positive the water waa in excellent condition, as it was when the last an¬ alysis was made last December, but because of the question having been raised, he had ordered the necessary supplies for taking another sample.
There had been several cases of sickness in one of the classes at school, none of them aerious, but it waa thought possible the trouble was caused by impure or infected wator. He was, however, of the opinion, after a consultation with the school physi¬ cian, that the trouble was rather some sort of a "catching" grip. The health of the village is excellent. Dr. Run¬ cie said, and there is abaolutely no epidemic of any kind.
Speaking of the rusty color of the water, he believed this was caused from the unusual frosta this winter and especially from the use of elec¬ tricity in thawing out the pipes. This was not harmful in any way,bat when the water wss used for tea, and milk put in it by forming an iron tannate the color was changed from the usu¬ al tea and milk color, but this waa not of any importonee either, excepting so far as the looks went The iron in the water had no bad effect upon persons using it

Successful Dinner of
Father and Sons
Some with their own sons, most with others' sons, about 50 men and their young guests enjoyed the fath¬ er-son get-together dinner in the ban¬ quet room of the M. E. Sunday School Friday evening. The following pro¬ gram was thoroughly enjoyed, the only change being that Mr. Boggs did not appear, and Edmund T. Cheshire gave a talk on the thrift stamps.
Following is the program:
Grace—Rev. S. O. Curtice, Metho¬ dist Episcopal Church
Menu—Prepared by the Ladies' Aid Society and of State-wide reputation
Toastmaster—Henry Leray Max¬ son, "A City Father"
Address—"Boy's Welcome to Fath¬ er," C. Laurence Smith, "A Village Son"
Response—Hon. Sidney H. Swezey, "A Past Village and Real Father"
Four-minnte comedy by all our pastors—"A general round robin of fun and experiences which must be left untold on the Sabbath.
Necessary and appreciated "Fath¬ er's Education of the Boy," F. G. WadKworth of Riverhead
Greetings from a Sister Village, R. H. Boggs of Rockville Centre
Serious but affectionate "Father in the Home," P. R. Moore of Patchogue
Benediction—Rev. R. H. Scott, "Charch of the Transfiguration"
The committee of arrangemente for this affair were: Robert W. Nutt chairman; Thomas Cleverley, Smith F. Pearsall, Rev. R. H. Scott, John H. Mahnken, E. R. Walton, Sidney V. Gibson, Charles J. Martin, Sidney U. Swezey, Laurence Smith, G. W. West- fott, Samvel B. Smith.    '^ "'- •
Ceorge Mulcahy left on Monday tc onter the service as helper in mak ing airplanes and is stetioned at Fori Slocam.
Beatrice Jane, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. WM. B. Wolff, was baptized a, the Church of the Redeemer on Sun day aftemoon by the Rector, Rev Wm. H. Littebrandt. Miss Mildrec Hill and J. A. Scully were the God parente.
Final arrangemente have been made for a monster enterteinment ane dance to be given by the Merricl Hook, Ladder and Engine Co., No. 2 on Saturday evening, April 6, at thv Firemen's Hall, Camp GroQn«l8.
The most alluring attraction in tht enterteinment will, in all probability prove to be the comedy in one act, en titled "Not On the Program," pro duced in one of tb9 previoos enter tolnniente given a few years ago. I is being reproduced An compllanci with a nnmber of requeste receivec from residente and non-residents oi this village who were unable, unfort unately, to witness its presentetioi when first produced. Its reprodnc tion has also received the approve of a great number who have already witiiesed its presentetion the firs time. Another of the acts that wil surely be enjoyed by the audience i; entitled "One Hundred Miles or t Hundred Dollars."
Messrs. Thomas McCaffrey and William Pearsall, who are very popu lar and prominent as local comedians will undoubtedly fascinate the audi ence when they appear in their owr surcessful and entertaining acts.
Theie brief statements only cover r skeleton review of what will appeal on the program. Thc tickete, includ ing dancing, arc 25 cents; children It c3nts, payable at the Joor. Ice crean and .cake will be on sale on the stegt after the performance. The enter teinment will stert promptly at 7:30 p. m.
You cannot but surrender to that pinching desire to be present to par¬ take of an evening assured enjoy¬ ment. The gigantic array of loca telent and a sensational and colossa' program is an absolute guarantee fc your presence this evening at thie enterteinment and dance. Eventually then why not be prepared by purchas¬ ing your ticketsi immediately?

Last Friday evening there gsih- 2red at the Bellmore Pire Hall as arge an audience as was ever held -hnre, it bcinp; the occasion of x con¬ cert for the benefit of the Wantegh ftad Cross Auxiliary, and was given by New York professional telent through the efforte of Walter Booth and Mrs. Anna Blackman, assinted by Mr. and Mrs, Charles Schafer. The concert was unusually fine and was most heartily enjoyed by every¬ one. The directress. Miss Msdelhie Deite, was splendid and tbe singers were great All we can say is that those who did not attend missed a great big treat. The singing of the duet, "Hope Beyond," by Mr. Lontia And Mr. Zcllman, was wonderful, in fact every selection waa so well ren> dered we were sorry wben it was fln¬ ished. We wish to extend oor sin¬ cere thanks to all those who assisted in any way to make this saeh a sne- cer.7, especially the firemen of Bell¬ more, who so generously donated br.th their hall and their se vices; to Mr. Ryder for his beautiful flowera for the singers and to little Master Reginald Eiliott, who delighted tbe audience with hia sweet singiag ef four selections. One was "Tbe Girl Who Wears the Red Cross oa Her Si««ve" and was very appropriato. This little fellow is certoinly doia^ his bit Other songs he sang were also very heartily encored. He was assisted by his motber at tbe plana. The concert will net aboat $100 fer iie good work.
