The meeting of the Agricultural Society of Queens-Nassau Counties was held Saturday afternoon. The re¬ port of this meeting brought out many interesting facts pertaining to the so¬ ciety. The society's indebtedness amounting to $3,000 will be cleared off by June, leaving no debts againsj the concern. Improvements are planned which will beautify the grounds, one of which is the erection of a picket fence to replace the pi-esent one of boards. *
i'l-eaident Willets declined a «ecord nomination and Alanson Abrams was unanimously elected in his place. Lott Van de Water was elected secretary, this being his'' eleventh term. Thos. H. Bacon was elected Treasurer again. He has held this position with the So¬ ciety for twenty-eight years; his e\ed- , tion, too, was unanimous.
One of the real popular men of the southside and elsewhere, too, is the Rev. Thomas braithwaite, pastor of the Memorial Church in Wantagh. He stajids for everything that is manly and honorable and has a personality that wins friends for him wherever he goes. Dr. Braithwaite is a student at all times, with a keen insight into hu¬ man nature and is recoguized as one of the best read men of the county. Not only does he preach a telling sermon, but is a strong speaker on any subject he is called upon to touch. He is iden¬ tified with the fire company-in his home town (Wantagh) and is strictly up to the minute. Wantagh is to be con¬ gratulated on having,for a citizen and pastor of its church such a man as Thomas S. Braithwaite.
