Nassau Assemblyman, Great Son of Great American, to Speak in Freeport
seemed sensible ideas to those who heard and answered with hearty ap¬ plause.
It was very interesting to get the reaction from the minds of those who listened to Mr. Baker's proposition. Nd Open ^ificussion was attempted be¬ cause the hour was late, but during thq social boux that followed, the writer spoke to Jere ilrown, who thought it an ideal thing that a pro¬ gram of comt; jnity service could be under the educational system, which !s outaide of politics and organized to carry «ach wdrk On effectively. El- viii EtlWards was sure that the p«o- Iflt tti Freeport will get solidly behind 'a program of buildivig and operation that looks like business. What we did durfng the war shows what wfe can do when a big thing appeals to the im¬ agination of the people. There were some who thought that the movement should be put into full swing at once Without waiting to talk any further. These parties did not, however, sug¬ gest how to get the money to build or get the property holders to see the de- •air$bility of voting the bonds. The aaner minds of the community have the vision and also the faith that the long headed Freeporter when he sees the immense advantage such a pro¬ gram will give the village, and the ad¬ ditional desirability as a residence place for home seekers, he will not be¬ grudge the cost. No people are more public-spirited. They see that we muat, as a community, talk the propo¬ sition through and get together on it and then pull hard.
"The speakers from outside the vil¬ lage were very fine and were listened to with close attention. Dr. Stimson was technical in his presentation of the work of community service. His vocabulary in that line was very fine, His ideas came so thick and fast that when he reached his conclusion and summed up and made his appeal for the big thing in Freeport it was tre¬ mendous. It carried conviction.

He said: "We do not cvalve educa¬ tional dogma back of the desk at Al¬ bany, we get it from the front Hie where teachera are doing the big apU .i- did things aad our part is merely to pass it un."
At another place he said: "In educii¬ tion we move conservatively. As :^ result, therefore, we are behind otht ¦ thinga, we do not keep up." One of the best thhigs he said was: "Wecan¬ not afford to sacrifice the boys and girls who are jjrowiny; up, nothing is tro srood for them. We do not appre¬ ciate our educational responsibilities except by providing an adequate pro¬ gram, "To erect a school plant is a much bigger thing than to provide mere.y a place for a child to sit dur¬ ing five hours of the day and teachers to hear him recite."

Raising Funds Fr-
Hebrew Temple
At the recent "get-togethpr" meet¬ ing of the Congregation B'Nai Israel in which the Daughters of Israel and the Y. M. H. A, of Nassau County participated, ways and means of rais¬ ing funds for the erection of the tem¬ ple in Freeport were generally dis¬ cussed. Such enthusiasm - was matii- feated that it was decided to immedi¬ ately open a subscription list; a sum larger than anticipated was contribu¬ ted by those present with asaurances of more to come.
A nnmber of prominent Jews of Freeport who were present promised aid iM raising the necesshry funds. It is estimated that between $20,000 and $25,000 will be required to build the temple planned.
At the conclusion of the meeting refreshments, music and dancing were enjoyed.
Regiater Tour Income Tax Mail Much advice on paying income tax^ and making reports, is hieing pubHsht, and should be, but here is one very ini- D'^rtnnt point not emphasized suffi¬ ciently.
Be sure you regbter all the letters you send In regard to this matter and Veep your registry receipts. When the offlce of the Income Tax Collector c'aim? you did not send the report, or offers to let yon off for a small fine, because they are willing to admit you forgot it, you muat be in a position to prove the carelessness ia not youra snd thst thay received H.

Ho i, so spoke of the famous school house f.re, some 28 years ago, on a cold, win¬ ter's night when the nearest building was afire numeroua times, but a -iun- dred or more people in the streets Btoo<^ ready and every time a ,'ire broke out on the roof an avalanche of snowballs was thrown at it, and ev¬ ery blaze put out before it did .iny damage.
Other members of the company re¬ viewed the history of the company up to the time when horses were used, when Henry C Schluter took a spe cial pride in always having a team of horses available for the purpose, all business stopping, in order to get them there; then oti through up to the time when the proposition of securing mot¬ or apparatus was first discussed, the tractor now in use for the truck be¬ ing the first piece of motor apparatus in the village.
Other speakers were: Charles P. Seaman, John J. Dunbar, old members of the company; Clarence A. Williama and S. Dimon Smith, chief engineer and flrst assistant engineer of tne de¬ partment; chaplain, Carl H. Miller; Rev. R. H. Scott and Howard E. Peax- sall, ex-chief of the department.
Following the dSnner a card and domino party was arranged, and the members spent the balance of the ev¬ ening in this kind of sociability, priz¬ es being awarded to the winners in "pedee," pinochle and dominoes.

Nassau Assemblyman, Great Son of Great American, to Speak in Freeport seemed sensible ideas to those who heard and answered with hearty ap¬ plause. It was very interesting to get the reaction from the minds of those who listened to Mr. Baker's proposition. Nd Open ^ificussion was attempted be¬ cause the hour was late, but during thq social boux that followed, the writer spoke to Jere ilrown, who thought it an ideal thing that a pro¬ gram of comt; jnity service could be under the educational system, which !s outaide of politics and organized to carry «ach wdrk On effectively. El- viii EtlWards was sure that the p«o- Iflt tti Freeport will get solidly behind 'a program of buildivig and operation that looks like business. What we did durfng the war shows what wfe can do when a big thing appeals to the im¬ agination of the people. There were some who thought that the movement should be put into full swing at once Without waiting to talk any further. These parties did not, however, sug¬ gest how to get the money to build or get the property holders to see the de- •air$bility of voting the bonds. The aaner minds of the community have the vision and also the faith that the long headed Freeporter when he sees the immense advantage such a pro¬ gram will give the village, and the ad¬ ditional desirability as a residence place for home seekers, he will not be¬ grudge the cost. No people are more public-spirited. They see that we muat, as a community, talk the propo¬ sition through and get together on it and then pull hard. "The speakers from outside the vil¬ lage were very fine and were listened to with close attention. Dr. Stimson was technical in his presentation of the work of community service. His vocabulary in that line was very fine, His ideas came so thick and fast that when he reached his conclusion and summed up and made his appeal for the big thing in Freeport it was tre¬ mendous. It carried conviction. Dr. Wilej was witty and wise. He Aileemblyman Theodore Roosevelt will make his first visit to Freeport as a public speaker, next Thursday ev¬ ening, February 5, when he wiil be-the guest of hon^r at the i,.; oi the Freeport Club.

At another place he said: "In educii¬ tion we move conservatively. As :^ result, therefore, we are behind otht ¦ thinga, we do not keep up."

M. H. A, of Nassau County participated, ways and means of rais¬ ing funds for the erection of the tem¬ ple in Freeport were generally dis¬ cussed. Such enthusiasm - was matii- feated that it was decided to immedi¬ ately open a subscription list; a sum larger than anticipated was contribu¬ ted by those present with asaurances of more to come. A nnmber of prominent Jews of Freeport who were present promised aid iM raising the necesshry funds. It is estimated that between $20,000 and $25,000 will be required to build the temple planned. At the conclusion of the meeting refreshments, music and dancing were enjoyed. Regiater Tour Income Tax Mail Much advice on paying income tax^ and making reports, is hieing pubHsht, and should be, but here is one very ini- D'^rtnnt point not emphasized suffi¬ ciently. Be sure you regbter all the letters you send In regard to this matter and Veep your registry receipts. When the offlce of the Income Tax Collector c'aim? you did not send the report, or offers to let yon off for a small fine, because they are willing to admit you forgot it, you muat be in a position to prove the carelessness ia not youra snd thst thay received H. vere conditions, as for instance when thCihouse of Alanson EllUon was afire on Atlantic Avenue, before Bedell St. was cut through, when they ii \ t to pull the truck across com lot.s, but saved the adjoining building, separat¬ ed only by the driveway. Ho i, so spoke of the famous school house f.re, some 28 years ago, on a cold, win¬ ter's night when the nearest building was afire numeroua times, but a -iun- dred or more people in the streets Btoo<^ ready and every time a ,'ire broke out on the roof an avalanche of snowballs was thrown at it, and ev¬ ery blaze put out before it did .iny damage. Other members of the company re¬ viewed the history of the company up to the time when horses were used, when Henry C Schluter took a spe cial pride in always having a team of horses available for the purpose, all business stopping, in order to get them there; then oti through up to the time when the proposition of securing mot¬ or apparatus was first discussed, the tractor now in use for the truck be¬ ing the first piece of motor apparatus in the village. Other speakers were: Charles P. Seaman, John J. Dunbar, old members of the company; Clarence A. Williama and S. Dimon Smith, chief engineer and flrst assistant engineer of tne de¬ partment; chaplain, Carl H. Miller; Rev. R. H. Scott and Howard E. Peax- sall, ex-chief of the department. Following the dSnner a card and domino party was arranged, and the members spent the balance of the ev¬ ening in this kind of sociability, priz¬ es being awarded to the winners in "pedee" pinochle and dominoes.

The ankle was badly swol¬ len and at first a break was feared but it is now slowly improving. Miss Annie Eldridge had a bad fall last Thursday morning at the M.
