Why PriHtW ia Higher Last week we hlbke a piece on our typesetting machine and had to have a machinist from the factory in Brooklyn, where the fdachine was made, come out and fix it. He had a form for us to fill out acknowledging the work he had done, and stipulat¬ ing the price, which was $12J)0 per day, 8 hours. This was a blaiik they had been using for some time, and where the printed price was $5.00 per day, now raised to $12.00 per day by increased demand of the unions and the desire oh the part of the manu¬ facturer for increased profits.

Here are some more extracts from the register at the Soldiers Club from boys who have been with us during the past few weeks:
Here is one from Bartlett, Texas, from a corporal in the M. T. C: ''Three big cheers for the W. C. C. S."
Right next to him on cither side are DoVs from Pittsburgh, Pa., and Ionia, Michigan. I he first one says: "Spent an evening that will never be forgotten" and the other say?: "The W. C Cv S. can certainly make a fel¬ low feel at home."
A lad from the 101st Infantry, whose home is at Boston, Mass., Lays: 'VHome is far away, but things are line l.<»re with the pip and cake.'
One of the lads from the M. T. C, from the neighboring village of Lyn¬ brook, a lonesome young fellow who does not dance much, says: "Beat girls I ever knew."
One of the refculars in the M. T. C. writes: "Just like home. I do not know what I would do if there was no place like this."
A lad from Burlington, Vermoi»t, says: "The b^st time had in many months.
That reminds us, last Saturday ev¬ ening one of our registrants was Ho Charles of the M. T. C. No. 482, whose home address is 1336 King Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, The girls said he was a good dbncer.
And this reminds us again of the variety in our work. The same night that we entertained this Hawaiian, a full fledg^ Japanese soldier, alsoH with the H. T. C., was among our vis¬ itors.
Mentioning names, on Wednesday Private Ralph H. Bates, of the Medi¬ cal Corps, from Toledo, Ohio, writes: "Boys always remember this Club." The workers remembered Bates, too, because he was the best soldier work er we had when we built the addition to our club house on Brooklyn Ave¬ nue, giving the entire afternoon in the big nuh we had to get the building flmshed. ^ Bates has since been over- aaaa, but made two trips from Camp Merritt to visit us on his way home. .Showing the variety, a lad from Ta coma, Waahington, in the 13th In fantry, writes: "Time af my life."
A lad from California paid us the onussal e«niplim«nt of saying: "Home WU never lite this."

Entertainment
Last Thursday evening a Japanese I party and dance was held at the Com- ' munity House. The rooms were deco¬ rated with Japanese lanterns, signs, parasols and fans. The members of the Girls' Club were dressed to rep¬ resent Japanese girls and the favors were Japanese fans for the girls and Japanese   hats   for   the   bma.     Misi

My husband hieing one of the en¬ listed men who didn't get a chance to go overseas, brought me this upon his return to private life. I thought you might wish to print it in your "newsy'   paper.
A Reader. Darling, here's your soldier bold.
Silver stripes instead of gold Shine upon his sleeve today,
'Cause he did not sail away.
But, my darling, do not bleat; For he didn't have cold feet; Simply did as he was told— Silver stripes instead of gold.

Sunday School 9:15 a. m. A talk by the Pastor
The passageway from the eastbound to the westbound tracks of the L. I. R. R. at our local station has been closed by fencing. A great inconvenience is caused the traveling public by this ac¬ tion. Why it was necessary surpass¬ es understanding. There is no appar¬ ent compensating safety for the in¬ convenience caused. As we see it, there was a situation somewhere on the road where something was gained by just such an act as we are describ¬ ing and the official had "a single track mind" which could not distinguish dif¬ ferences. One road; one rule—and a wooden official. If there is any infiu- ence in the village which can have the opening restored, it should exer¬ cise itself at once.

He says: "I finally got home and am sure glad to be here, although I miss the good times we had at the Club, and it is a place I never will forget. I have of¬ ten wished I could be there to spend some of the lonesome evenings."
It is letters like this from the men whom we entertained that help to make the jvork worth while, knowing that it is appreciated by our guests.

Kiddy Nearly Electrocuted
Early Wednesday evening C. E. Swatling was driving his auto along Broadway when at Columbus Avenue a woman signalled for him to stop. He jumped from his car; and found a lad fast to a live electric wire which had been hanging down and which he had grabbed. Mr. Swatling took ji blanket from his car and knocked the wire from the little fellow's hand, and he fell unconscious on the ground. Mr. Swatling sent for a physician and ad¬ ministered first aid so that the boy was soon breathing normally, when he took him to Dr. Runcie for treatment. The boy was Jerome, the four year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Bus- cemi of 63 North Columbus Avenue. The timely arrival of Mr. Swatling saved his life, as the wire was a pri¬ mary alternating current wire, for supplying village lighting, of about 1,100 volts and the child would have soon been beyond help. The thumb on his left hand was burned down into the bone and the tips of his index and little finger burned off, and there were also some .auperficial bums on hia lega.
The wire evidently had been weak¬ ened from the severe storm of Satur¬ day night and dropped to the ground juat before little Jerome happened to just before little Jeropie happened to

HempsteiS  Guarantors  Pay   for Chautauqua
The Chautauqua closed its engage¬ ment in Hempstead on Sunday after a five days run. The attendance due to the bad weather and other causes was very poor. The 40 men of Hemp¬ stead who underwrote the Chautaqua must now pay ten dollars each! a to¬ tal of $400, which was the guarantee made unless 600 tickets were disposed of at $2 each.—Sentinel.
This is a grand scheme by the Chau¬ tauqua people, and the interesting fea¬ ture of it is that they can get "suck¬ ers" to" bite on it right along. In no case does the concern running these shows lose, but the men who put up the guarantee have to make good, in case of bad \^ather or poor attend¬ ance or for any other reason. That is the reason why after one experience no more Chautauquas are "pulled off" in Freeport.
