VThe regular meeting of the Neigh-1 borhood Workers waa held February , 19 at the home of Mrs. Fred E. Story. !
The monthly report being read by j the social worker showed the active work of the past few weeks as fol- i lows: The organization supplied 22 j families with coal, gave to 6 families j good warm bed comfortables, and supplied many hungry households with groceries, and are having milk sent daily to a number of sick fami¬ lies.
Mrs. Scholey visited many sick people, sent them Jellies and dainties, had doctor seryices rendered to flve families, and had all prescriptions filled, gave eye glasses, had a child examined at Cornell Medical College, sent two beds and bedding to families who needed them. One case of which shewed two half grown-ups sleeping in a little childs crib.
Mrs. Scholey had conference with an insifance agent and kept policy ot two worthy persons from lapsing, al¬ so held conference with landlords, and saved many from being put out on the cold street. The Association found a good home for a homeless child, discovered children living in places where their morals were in danger, and reported these cases to the Society for the Protection of

INFORMATION
The Exhibit and Information Car is now in Freeport for the purpose of giving full information how to secure a tract of this land, and you are invited to visit the car. The car is beautifully equipped, light¬ ed throughout by electricity, and contains large display of products of the soil, and photographs of the land, showing productive farms, timber tracts and the great oil wells of Oklahoma, together with folios, maps, charts, etc., also showing the location and enormous possibilities of these lands from a min¬ eral timber and agricultural standpoint.
The car is not sent out for the purpose of selling land, but more to advertise and give you the opportunity of making arrangements for its purchase, and to explain to you thoroughly how you select the land you wish to buy without going to Oklahoma. - - -

CONDITIONS
YOI) DO NOT HAVE TO IIVE ON TBE lAlVD OR IMPROVE IT. Land lies close to progressive market towns and railroads. Ample rainfall—no irrig^ation, no fertilizing. Virgin soil. The land is yours to do as you please with. You may buy a tract for an investment or to farm-that is entirely up to you. Similar lands sold from $3 to $7 per acre. Easy terms-yearly payment.
The lands contain fine timber, farming and grazing conditions. No taxes until paid for The lands to be sold are located in Oklahoma's w^onderful Oil and Gas area and are practically bounded on all sides by the producing Oil Fields of Arkansas. Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. Last year Oklahoma produced ten times as much OIL'as Pennsylvania and equalled 25 per cent, of the entire world's production.
AS AN INVESTMENT

The leasing of your land to the oil companies for the privilege of drilling for oil is another means of in¬ come, and from all oil produced out of your land the law gives you one-eighth of the production as royalty.
There are other ways of obtaining a revenue from the land, which we will be pleased to tell you about. The Uaited States Government is giving you this opportunity for a good, safe, profitable investment.

SEW NERVE INTO MAN'S ARM
Remarkable Surgical Operation on Wounded Officer Is Successfully
«»..., »,.,^ Performed.
London.—Sufflcient time has now elapsed to assure the complete succeas of one of the most striking surgical ex¬ periments resulting from the war, says the Mall.
The patient, a young offlcer at the Queen Alexandra Hospital for Offlcers at Hlghgate, had been severely wound¬ ed In the forearm, four loches of the ulnar nerve, one of the Important nerves supplying the hand, being total¬ ly destroyt^d, thus rendering the hand practically useless.
"About one ca.se In ten of ortli nary nerve grafting with laboratory treated nerves succeeds," the surgeon who per¬ formed the operation told me, "so I de¬ cided to replace the destroyed nerve with another similar nerve as nearly alive as possible."
Search was therefore made at a num¬ ber of London hospitals until the sur¬ geon found what he wanted—a case of a limb amputation, from which was obtained the required length of a prac¬ tically living, healthy nerve of the same quality and size as the destroyed ulnar. This was sent to the officers' hospital by taxlcab. On Its arrival the offlcer was at once anesthetized, the wound In the forearm was opened, and the sec¬ tion of nerve was sewn to the two ends of the injured ulnar, thus bridging tba gap. Tbe wonnd was then ciosed.
After some weelcs faint sensation, and, later, power to move the tauscles of the band governed by the ulnar nerve, gradually returned, until a few weeks ago the offlcer was able to leave the hospital and take up light dutlea at a home station.
; On Friday of last week Mr. Chas. j H. Lush of this village received the I consent of the Secretary of S^ate by telegram to incorporate a new adver¬ tising venture under the name of the : Long Islaud Bulletin Corporation. Un j the same day he and George L. Mill¬ er of Lynbrook and George Daren- : berg of Freeport met and si.a:ned cer- ! tificate of incorporation and it was ' forwarded that night to Albany with ' the usual fees and on Monday moin- in.i; followiuK a certified copy came back to him from the Secretary of State and was flled iu .\a.ssaii t'ounty Clerks office. While this is unusual¬ ly rapid work it is not unusual with - the i>artios mentioned as they are well known hustlers.
The corporation in (juestion Is etu- powcred to coiuhui both as principal and agent, a general bulletin and ad- v(itising business and it has evolved a v«ry attr.active advertisin:; buUelin proixjsition which i.s to be extindcii extensively throughout the Island. Since its incorpoi ation and tip to the tii-.if of going to press this corjwira- . Iion has already received orders for the erection of twenty-six bulletins along the leading autoniohilr thoro- fare.-i of Na.ssau County. The amount of tbe capital stock of tht corpora¬ tion is $10.0110. Chas. H. Lush is the president and general manager. CicoiKC L. Miller is the vice presi¬ dent and treasurer and George N\' Darenberg is the secrelary.
The C. H. Lush Sign Works which was established and has its works and studio at East Merrick road at Freeport is a well known and long established institution and its estab¬ lishment and operation by Charles H. Lush has made Freeport well known in the advertising line not only on Long Island but in New York and the establishment of this new enter¬ prise will increase its prestige in the fleld which he fills so well. i

Preparations are under way for the Every Member Canvass to be made Sunday afternoon, March 25.
