DANIELS' LABORATORT IDEA.
Secretary Daniels' civilian advisory committee, to be composed of the leading inventors and engineers in the country, will give an opportunity, hitherto unknown, for the presenta¬ tion' by the common people, of ideas, some of which may be of value. Many a poor man has hit upon some device which he believed would be of benefit to the fighting forces of the United States, but as he was with¬ out funds and had no "pull' with ofllcials at Washington his Invention has been permitted to die a natural death. Secretary Daniels wants to correct this. At least, so far as the Navy Department is concerned. So does Thomas A. Edison, i When the advisory committee is fully organized any person, no mat ter what his position In life may be will be free to submit any device or Idea to the board. It will then be studied by the navy's civilian board. If the Idea or device Is at all consid¬ ered feasible, one of the expert of^cers o' the navy will take It and put it to a practical test. If It proves a suc¬ cess the government will enter Into negotiations to purchaso It. If it does not, it will be tossed aside.
Mrs. Theo. Vaught will entertain Mrs. A. Brown of Brooklyn over this coming week-end.

Our God of love and power and mercy,
for our President we pray; Give him wisdom, patience, courage
for each passing trying day. Whilst the helm of state he's holding,
O, wilt Thou direct his hand. Quiet those who seek to thwart him;
Keep in peace our own dear land.
May no thoughts of self or honou
come between him and Thy will; As he has been acting wisely, may
he go no wisely still. Difncultles, trying moments come,
and wisdom's needed then. May wise counsellors surround him,
in the hearts of solid men.
Much indeed Thy hand has given for
our blessing o'er and o'er. And as Thou dost give so freely we
would^ask Thee, "Give us more." i Oh! toayjlhls great nation know Thee
to whom all powers belong. Bless our President and Country;
give us a thanksgiving song. THOMAS H. GILMORE. Freeport, L. I,
Last Saturday the Freeport A. A. made it seven straight by defeating the Bellewood Athletics In a listless game by the score of 8 to 2.
The visitors played a poor game both at bat and in the field.
Bedell fanned 12 men but gave seven bases on balls. In rhe seventh he filled the bases and then fanhed the next tbree men.
Raynor started the scoring In the first, when with Fettit on second, Billy doubled. After that the game was never in doubt.
-Next Saturday, July 31, the Kirk¬ man A. A. will be the attraction at Freeport and the local boys are out for revenge for the two trimmings the Kirkman's gave our boys last sea¬ son.
The Kirkmans have defeated such teams as Forest Hils, Texaco, Al- toonas of Hempstead, Huntington and Richmond Hill thi.s season, and look for a victory this Saturday.

SPEND THE DAT AT
HIGH HILL BEACH
There is nothing quite so enjoyable this hot summer weather as a cool sail to High Hill Beach and dinner at the High Hill Beach Hotel and Cas¬ ino. It certainly is an ideal spot; plenty of broad sandy beach with am- .ple bathlhg facilities, and a hotel and casino where you can dine on a cool veranda, enjoy an hour's dancing or just sit in the cc^l of the spacious verandas and look on.
Everything at High Hill Beach makes for comfort and happiness. There is no starchy boardwalk style, but just real genuine home life. "The beach Is accessible from Freeport, Bellmore and Seaford, and time tables are printed in other couimns of this issue.
The menu at the hotel and casino is excellent. Good home cooking, served in a most delicious way. Ev¬ erything in the line of sea food can be served without notice. Spend the next half day you have off at High Hill Beach.

Demonstxation Luncheon An aluminum — demonstration Bayview vs
(By Speeial ("orrespondent.j The Bayview Tennis Club team fared poorly over the week-end, being twice defeated, Saturday afternoon by the Rockville Centre team, and Sunday afternoon at the hands of the strong Bay Ridge Field Club sextet. Bayview vs, Rockvile Centre. At Rockville Centre the local team made a strong bid for the match, win¬ ning one single contest and all three of the double, for a total of four points. By reason of her superiority in singles, however, Rockvllie Centre won out, with flve points to hpr credit. As usual the players were closely niat( hed, most of the contests re(iuiring three sets before decisions were reaclied. The most interesting affair of the afternoon was the matcli in which Wessels and Dow of the lo¬ cal team defeated Clifford and Demp¬ sey. After winning the lirst set rather easily at e-3, their opponents secureij leads of 6-."i, !l-8, and 12-11, in the second set. At this point the Freeport combination let out several notches, and eventually won out, 14- 12. Wallace of Bayview secured the only singles won for the F'reeport team, defeating H. Wright in a fast and exciting three-set match at 6-4, 7)-l, 6-4.
Scores were as follows:
(By Special Correspondent.) Douhlis—Miler and Wallace. Bay- viow. deflated H. WrlKht and Dal. Molln. «-4.' 4-6. 6-2. Longworth and Dow, Bayview, defeated Lenno.v and Newberry. 6-0. 7-5. Wessel.s and Root. Rayvlew, dofeated CIllTord and Demp¬ sey, 6-3, 14-12.

at 10-8, 6-4. The first set of this match was possibly the most interest¬ ing of the afternoon. Each player won his serve until ine score stood at 8 all. At this point Rosa, who suffered a sunstroke last season be¬ came considi;rably alloeted by the hot sun and weakened, enabling his op¬ ponent to win out. After a long rest the match was resumed, hut the vis¬ itor was nnobli- lo regain his true form, and lost. In the doubles. Free- port seiured its second win through the efforts of Captain Miller and Wal¬ lace. Playing against Grantloman and J. .Miller thoy won out at »>-;!. C,-2. The loial captain's vicious ground strokes wore working perfeci ly, and with a paee which .served completely to up set the net attack of the visit¬ ing players. Harry Wright of the
local team, put up a stiff flght against Callaman of Bay Ridge, as did M. Thompson against Grandeman. but both lost out in hard three-set matches. Wessels and Root of the l-reeport teem furnished considerable opposition to the Marcus and H. Ro,J3 doubles' combination, but were un¬ able to win out, although Ihe match was of the closest possible variety. The visitors were highljt pleased at their reception and were unanimou.8 in their desire to visit Freeport again. They will be out again later in the season, and the local team will play a return match at the Bay Ridge courts in .\ugust.
Scores were as follows:
