THE NASSAU POST. The Nassau Pjtt begins pubUcatlODJ-''^ l'"le ^^^'
today with no vain glorious boast oi
what 11 will undertake lo do. As to what its policy will be there
is no easier way of finding out than
by reading ll. We hope to keep ll
clean and progressive. We shall teh
the truth always. Beyond that, we
are free lo make our program as we
go along. Except one thing.
The Nassau Poat will absolutely In¬ dependent. This loay as well be an
nouncod at the 8-.art. W"e cannot bring
ourselves lo believe that the opinions
of a fettered partisan advocate carry
much weight. We want lo bo In a
position where we may consider men
and measures on their merits. When
occasion soems t'j demand lhat we
shy a brick agaln.st a party battlement
we want to feel peifectly ^reo -to
¦wing with vigor. The people of Nassau County seem
lo be competent lo handle politica. situations as Uiey arise. They bo.iu ro6n into oflice with tho same enlhusi astlc spirit lhat they kick them out We would rather sorve this competent general electorate than a soctloi. thereof.
While tho Nassau Post will circu¬ late generally throughout Nassau County and, Indeed.elsewhere on Lonfe Island, Us special field will bo the South Side, embracing first Freepon and extending enst and west fron. Massapequa to tho city line.
Assurances of support have come tc Ufl from many quailers, for which wt take occasion now lo extpnd oui thanks of appreciation.
^ There is no powei on earth lhat can (bake people buy tho Nassau Post un¬ less they want It. It will be our ob¬ ject to make ihom want It.
Success does noi come for the ask¬ ing. We shall work for it and hope to deserve 11.
', chltecturally worthy of the village and j under conditions not open to serious I objections, is presented In another
column of this newspaper. ..
Originally a suggeatlon of tbe Naa¬ sau Post, the plan already has the unqualified approval and support of a number of public-spirited citizens. It should at least Interest everyone.
Briefly stated. It is contem^ilating lo incorporate The Fieeport Association as a quasl-offlcl.il body with a mem¬ bership of 200 'O become responsible for the financing of the building Membership In the association is to be upon the bajis of a $30 subscrlp lion to a building fund, which would give the aasociation 16,000, a sum suf ficient to enlist the cooperation of a builder.
William G. Miller, whose civic ac- llvlUes are alw,¦^ys directed by energj ind enterprise, comes forward wltl an offer to undertake the physical :onlract of building on terms of pay .-nent made possible by the association plan.
Thus, the project at the start as suraes concrete form. There are de :all8 which will lequire shaping tc nake it effective, but they are in nc iCnse stumbling blocks.
The Important thing is that the spirit of accomplishment is in and o; he movement, wUhout which all ef forts looking to clflc betterment are
ORNATE CIVIC ADORNMENTS.
Freeport may ¦•- j The new boulevard ligbte whicli ex-
every way ar-1 tnd along Village avenue from the
.airoad to Merlrck Road and west to
Centre avenue in Rockville Centre
Ue dignified and ornate monuments
to an enterprise which is something
more than utilitarian. These lights
didn't grc.T. They cost money. For
mere purposes of Illumination less ar-
tlstlcs standards would have answer-
'^d. But that was not the thought.
The desire was to light this Important
horoughfare not only well but with a
egree of beauty.
It Is a healthy sign when a town lecldes to break away from the Im- jresBlven otion that things are good mough. It is a healthy sign when nerchants unite and open their purs r»8 for ImprovemenTH which give char- ACter to a town.
St^pervisor Hiram R. Smith. Village 'resident Devlllo N. Bulson and all ne others should 'eel proud that they j uddled and warmed Into life the idea nat has resulted In Rockville Centre's j ireat light way. i
The well known Elks family ol JPrceport has 700 members. Including (J99 Jolly god fellows and one exalteu Jolly good fellow. There's Joy even in being the brother of a brother oi a Brother Elk.
HONK-HONKi in recommending that the Super- rlBors purchase automobiles for the Sheriff and the District Attorney the Grand Jury, while gratuitously ac¬ cepting for Itself an advisory function not strictly essenUal to the mainten¬ ance of its official status or siandard, very adroitly omitted lo nominate the make, style and price.
Does the Graud Jury favor touring cars or runabouts, aud so whal colot and speed?
The ever increasing requlremenlE of the two important offices foi which modern perambulatory provi¬ sion is sought to be made very likely bas reached the machine stage. If so, by all means let them have cars.
Three honks and a tiger and nevei mind tbe expense!
THE SCHOOL PROBLEM. It is undoubtedly a fact, as Super¬ visor Hiram R. Smith says, that the maintenance of the high school cours- as in districts of the county where che facilities are restrlclod and the Jemand limited, adds lo the burden of taxation. But what are we going LO do about It?
It Is possible of course to reduce Lhe number of high schools by cutting out the feebler onos and centralizing for greater efficiency but if that course were lo tie followed what com- munltloB would be called on to make sacrifices In this Interest of the com¬ mon good? Would It be left to offi- :lal decision, or would the people iieniBelvos decide?
There are nineteen high schoole n Nassau County and nineteen dlffer- ;nt rates of school taxation, ranging ¦rom 12 cents In one district to $2 11 moihor.
While the tax problem Is predicated m the school situation 11 Is neverihe- .083 a problem by itself. Schools and laxes may not always be wisely con- idered together. If a community leeds a school a way must be found .0 provide It. That is education. The ;harges come along in their order. That Is finance.
Nassau's phenominal growth is due n no small part to the excellence of its schools, and the fact that each leparate section has ungrudgingly ac¬ cepted for Itsolf tha duty of provldln.'r the best that it could afford in build¬ ings and pay for teachers.
It may be, and probably Is, time for a thoroughly competent Inquiry into the entire school question, but pending such Inquiry we venture to mggest lhat any one who undertakes .0 reduce the number of schools with¬ out the full approval of the people will find himself closely adjacent to a veryc onslderable nest of hornets.
MEN AND PLATFORMS. ;
Every man who df sires to be a j •andldate for pubilc office la Freeport | J the Spring election ought to formu j ate his platform well In advance and i iiake it known to the electors. j
Effective public service is never the | -esult of chance or haphazard effort ! Without a pollcy looking lo a definite ' objective no man may do more thau drift.
Freeport's problems of administra¬ tion, of taxation, of schools and ol improvements call for men of strength ind sound cgnvlctlons.
The next election should not be merely a negative contest between candidates. It should be a contest ftetween vigorous advocates of con¬ structive policies.

YOURS FOR HEALTH.
We would like to see tbe sale of rubbers, overshoes aud golasHes jtunp fifty per cent, in every shoe ¦tore in Nassau County—women's alsea in parUciilar.
The old adage about keeping the bead cool and the feet warm is ac¬ cepted by women and girls generally with respect to the first half thereof Iliey keep their heads cool; tbey do not keep their feet warm. Wet or dry, cold or warm, you will not see one wouian In ten shod with due re¬ gard to health.
Rubbers are cheap—Blcknesa is coatly. One call at tiie shoe atore may prevent a dozon caUs ot the doctor.
FROM LONG ISLAND. We have long been aware lhat some of the choicest Philadelphia ducks oome from the duck farms of Long Island. We have noted that large quantities of the flqest New Jersey asparagus In the market are grown at Oyster Bay. Freeport has for a long time grown oysters whlcb have oeea marked as Cape Cod. Now the ntelligence comes to ub that Boston, Urlvlng always to maintain Us high repute for beans, has found in our lome raised product a rich and mealy irtlcle suited to its taste.
Thus does Long Island maintain Its supremacy In competitive fields, i-'ood supplies from Long Island are ilways standard. They fill a long felt want and satisfy a jrarlety of tastes.
TROLLEY EXTENSION.
The closer the transit Unks con aectlng villages and towns on Long island with one another, the more ho :nogieou3 becomes the communities The constiutlon may or may not fol¬ low the flag, but trade certainly does follow the trolley.
Tho proposed extension of the Irove street line through Railroad ivenue past the Long Island Railroad lopot to Main street is a step forward Uill the exten.Hlon should not halt .here. Plans for pushing on to Am- ityvlllo should be carried Into effect IS soon as possible.
Long Island development has halted in many places btcause of Inadequate .neans of transit between localities. rhlB condilion is being corrected. In Lhe working out of the general prob Iem of Inter-towa communication looner or later a scheme will be per- lected which will solve forever the question of "getUng there." For Free port at least. The Nasiau Post recog alzes that the Intelligent minds o) Thomas P. C. Forbes, Jr., and Roland M. Lamb are directed toward such an tCco.'npllf.hment.

NEIGHBOR ROOSEVELT.
Although he tioars no commission from the Congress of United Stales, and, for that matter, needs none. The odore Roosevelt Is nevertheless serv ing as an honorary and unofficial am bassador lo the people of South America.
No man has finer equipment for the )ob. He Is making a nit on both side.- of the AndeB and has been a sourcf of enligutenmont In every country ht has vlslled from the Orinoco to the I'ar .".way lands of the Pategonlans.
A WORD TO MR. WEED.
Assemblyman Weed has a good pair ot eyes and a clear head. He can do .10 more effective work In the Legis¬ lature than by watching with persist¬ ent care for the "'nigger in the wood¬ pile" in cemetery legislation.
Rogues and tricksters are trying to srheme tbrougb some measure to ex¬ ploit Nassau County In a purely com¬ mercial way under the gulae of pro¬ viding a burial plac« for the dead.
By wrltlug the appropriate epitaph "killed" on such leglslaUon. the As¬ semblyman will entitle himself to a monument of pralae.
With many of our leading cltlzenR Interested in highwaya and a consid¬ erable number of District Attorneys paying attention to certain highway¬ men \ibe good roads movement may be said to be suocceaXoL
FARMING WITH THE HEAD.
The foundation of the first building of what will be a thoroughly equipped school of agriculture on Long laland ¦vlll soon be laid at Farmlngdale. Thr actual work of the school will begin quickly thereafter.
There are sllll people who are un¬ willing to believe that anything new may be learned about com or cah bage, peas or parsley, spinnach oi squash. They profess lo look upon the apllcation of sclentlDc methods oi tarming as either senseless or Imprac vlcal and not lo be compared with iht methods gained by every day experi¬ ence.
But facts are all agaliyil such con- clUBlons. The chemist and botonist bear a relation to modern farming analogous to the electrician's relation to modem transit Science goes ahead of the plow nowadays.
Long Island Is happily favored In having this modem agricultural ea- labllshment No territory has been more fruitful than Long Island. It has reaped Its goodly harvests for centuries. StlU there Is abundant c"/ portunlly and great need for IraprovA- ment. Long Island should be a (Ar- den spot In Us esBential sense. She new agricultural school will pr#vlde* :he knowiedge of how to make if bloe-

In writing a se- rie.4 of articles with the life at Ox¬ ford University as a theme. It is al¬ most Imperative to prefix a descrip¬ tion of present conditions with a sketch of Oxford itself and Us won¬ derful past. To un- derf-';i).(l the Oxford of todav^nd lo apprei iiite the sloi ig^S'wTiIcn T shall endea.or to tell, the reader must know .something of the manner In whlcl) lhe University and the city are boup'l together, and how the almost forgotti-!i deeda o; the Middle Age.^ have their echo In the lite of tht 'jrea'hmg throbbing Oxford of tht jreseut day. This first sketch l.s a Drief review of fact.s which It is ne jessary to know.
Oxiurd, a city ot fifty thousand in¬ habit.iMs, i.s situated on the bank.s oi lhe Thames, fifty-two miles from Lon- Jon, i.'!>;land. Eailie.st tradition pic¬ tures i; us a coll'^ctJou of lude wooden dwell i.'i;.';) group-3d round the shine ol St. I'lidetiwyde on the left bank ol the ri^.er in 725.

The preHenl generation of "Tov^•n- les"—as townsfolk are called -oftlnieii complain of the power of the Univer¬ sity. Little do they realize lhat they are bearing the chains forged for them by the excesses of their forebears of .Medieval Times. The "Town and Gown" riots thc^t one roads of In novels have long since been stopped. But e\en yet a "Townie" never misses a chance to help the police when there is trouble with undergraduates.

TARIFF AND TENNI-S BALLS.
li the gradual re-adjustiiient of prices under the new tariff act the tirst cut otlicially noticed was in the price of terini.s balls. Uotierl D. iVrenn, president of the United States .N'ation'il Lawn Tftunls Asyoclalton, as- -ures us that the grade of tennis ballt called oilicial will he reductnl lo $^ per dozen, due ic> tne reduction ot .rude rutitiei.
VNhlle it may not bo urged that the nigh cost of living is given a stagger¬ ing swat by the change in the price if tennis balLs, it Is of real Interest

TIME FOR PLANNING.
It is uuforlunito, to say the least, that in tin.' development of villages ef- icctlve plans for civic beautifying are neglected until mere or less haphaz¬ ard foiinailous of centres have made reform well nigli impracticabli'
Freeport has siill'ered In this re¬ spect with olher Nassau villages. It fiither did not contemplate Us future needs at a time when ppjjortunity was .'ipe lor orderly planning, or it omit¬ ted tlicni altogether.
What Freeporl may do now to cor¬ rect the oonlssion ol ihf^ long ago, de¬ pends le.sa upon tin people than upon the spirit and thaiacter of the move¬ ment lo which they may be asked to sive their authority and approval.
A proposition to purchase a Bite for a clvc building is under considera¬ tion for submission to the voters, juch a proposition sbould be lightly :onfildered. The kind of a place that Kreeport is ultimately lo be Is of im¬ portance to every citizen. Civic plan¬ ning sbould be made broad enough to engage the inteiest and Insure the support of the ablest of our disinter¬ ested citizens.
What we do now is likely lo be done i'or aj^l time. What we do now should be done with the wisdom and impulse of lofty patiiollsm.

Originally a suggeatlon of tbe Naa¬ sau Post, the plan already has the unqualified approval and support of a number of public-spirited citizens. It should at least Interest everyone. Briefly stated. It is contem^ilating lo incorporate The Fieeport Association as a quasl-offlcl.il body with a mem¬ bership of 200 'O become responsible for the financing of the building Membership In the association is to be upon the bajis of a $30 subscrlp lion to a building fund, which would give the aasociation 16,000, a sum suf ficient to enlist the cooperation of a builder. William G. Miller, whose civic ac- llvlUes are alw,¦^ys directed by energj ind enterprise, comes forward wltl an offer to undertake the physical :onlract of building on terms of pay .-nent made possible by the association plan. Thus, the project at the start as suraes concrete form. There are de :all8 which will lequire shaping tc nake it effective, but they are in nc iCnse stumbling blocks. The Important thing is that the spirit of accomplishment is in and o; he movement, wUhout which all ef forts looking to clflc betterment are ORNATE CIVIC ADORNMENTS.

These lights didn't grc.T. They cost money. For mere purposes of Illumination less ar- tlstlcs standards would have answer- '^d. But that was not the thought. The desire was to light this Important horoughfare not only well but with a egree of beauty. It Is a healthy sign when a town lecldes to break away from the Im- jresBlven otion that things are good mough.

HONK-HONKi in recommending that the Super- rlBors purchase automobiles for the Sheriff and the District Attorney the Grand Jury, while gratuitously ac¬ cepting for Itself an advisory function not strictly essenUal to the mainten¬ ance of its official status or siandard, very adroitly omitted lo nominate the make, style and price. Does the Graud Jury favor touring cars or runabouts, aud so whal colot and speed? The ever increasing requlremenlE of the two important offices foi which modern perambulatory provi¬ sion is sought to be made very likely bas reached the machine stage. If so, by all means let them have cars. Three honks and a tiger and nevei mind tbe expense! THE SCHOOL PROBLEM. It is undoubtedly a fact, as Super¬ visor Hiram R. Smith says, that the maintenance of the high school cours- as in districts of the county where che facilities are restrlclod and the Jemand limited, adds lo the burden of taxation. But what are we going LO do about It? It Is possible of course to reduce Lhe number of high schools by cutting out the feebler onos and centralizing for greater efficiency but if that course were lo tie followed what com- munltloB would be called on to make sacrifices In this Interest of the com¬ mon good? Would It be left to offi- :lal decision, or would the people iieniBelvos decide? There are nineteen high schoole n Nassau County and nineteen dlffer- ;nt rates of school taxation, ranging ¦rom 12 cents In one district to $2 11 moihor. While the tax problem Is predicated m the school situation 11 Is neverihe- .083 a problem by itself. Schools and laxes may not always be wisely con- idered together. If a community leeds a school a way must be found .0 provide It. That is education. The ;harges come along in their order. That Is finance. Nassau's phenominal growth is due n no small part to the excellence of its schools, and the fact that each leparate section has ungrudgingly ac¬ cepted for Itsolf tha duty of provldln.'r the best that it could afford in build¬ ings and pay for teachers. It may be, and probably Is, time for a thoroughly competent Inquiry into the entire school question, but pending such Inquiry we venture to mggest lhat any one who undertakes .0 reduce the number of schools with¬ out the full approval of the people will find himself closely adjacent to a veryc onslderable nest of hornets. MEN AND PLATFORMS. ; Every man who df sires to be a j •andldate for pubilc office la Freeport J the Spring election ought to formu j ate his platform well In advance and i iiake it known to the electors. j Effective public service is never the -esult of chance or haphazard effort ! Without a pollcy looking lo a definite ' objective no man may do more thau drift. Freeport's problems of administra¬ tion, of taxation, of schools and ol improvements call for men of strength ind sound cgnvlctlons. The next election should not be merely a negative contest between candidates. It should be a contest ftetween vigorous advocates of con¬ structive policies. fln flmenican Boy at Oxford HRRBERT Ul. CLOCK YOURS FOR HEALTH. We would like to see tbe sale of rubbers, overshoes aud golasHes jtunp fifty per cent, in every shoe ¦tore in Nassau County—women's alsea in parUciilar. The old adage about keeping the bead cool and the feet warm is ac¬ cepted by women and girls generally with respect to the first half thereof Iliey keep their heads cool; tbey do not keep their feet warm. Wet or dry, cold or warm, you will not see one wouian In ten shod with due re¬ gard to health. Rubbers are cheap—Blcknesa is coatly. One call at tiie shoe atore may prevent a dozon caUs ot the doctor. FROM LONG ISLAND. We have long been aware lhat some of the choicest Philadelphia ducks oome from the duck farms of Long Island. We have noted that large quantities of the flqest New Jersey asparagus In the market are grown at Oyster Bay. Freeport has for a long time grown oysters whlcb have oeea marked as Cape Cod. Now the ntelligence comes to ub that Boston, Urlvlng always to maintain Us high repute for beans, has found in our lome raised product a rich and mealy irtlcle suited to its taste. Thus does Long Island maintain Its supremacy In competitive fields, i-'ood supplies from Long Island are ilways standard. They fill a long felt want and satisfy a jrarlety of tastes. TROLLEY EXTENSION. The closer the transit Unks con aectlng villages and towns on Long island with one another, the more ho :nogieou3 becomes the communities The constiutlon may or may not fol¬ low the flag, but trade certainly does follow the trolley. Tho proposed extension of the Irove street line through Railroad ivenue past the Long Island Railroad lopot to Main street is a step forward Uill the exten.Hlon should not halt .here. Plans for pushing on to Am- ityvlllo should be carried Into effect IS soon as possible. Long Island development has halted in many places btcause of Inadequate .neans of transit between localities. rhlB condilion is being corrected. In Lhe working out of the general prob Iem of Inter-towa communication looner or later a scheme will be per- lected which will solve forever the question of "getUng there." For Free port at least. The Nasiau Post recog alzes that the Intelligent minds o) Thomas P. C. Forbes, Jr., and Roland M. Lamb are directed toward such an tCco.'npllf.hment. 1 NEIGHBOR ROOSEVELT.

Assemblyman Weed has a good pair ot eyes and a clear head. He can do .10 more effective work In the Legis¬ lature than by watching with persist¬ ent care for the "'nigger in the wood¬ pile" in cemetery legislation. Rogues and tricksters are trying to srheme tbrougb some measure to ex¬ ploit Nassau County In a purely com¬ mercial way under the gulae of pro¬ viding a burial plac« for the dead. By wrltlug the appropriate epitaph "killed" on such leglslaUon. the As¬ semblyman will entitle himself to a monument of pralae.

The foundation of the first building of what will be a thoroughly equipped school of agriculture on Long laland ¦vlll soon be laid at Farmlngdale. Thr actual work of the school will begin quickly thereafter. There are sllll people who are un¬ willing to believe that anything new may be learned about com or cah bage, peas or parsley, spinnach oi squash. They profess lo look upon the apllcation of sclentlDc methods oi tarming as either senseless or Imprac vlcal and not lo be compared with iht methods gained by every day experi¬ ence. But facts are all agaliyil such con- clUBlons. The chemist and botonist bear a relation to modern farming analogous to the electrician's relation to modem transit Science goes ahead of the plow nowadays. Long Island Is happily favored In having this modem agricultural ea- labllshment No territory has been more fruitful than Long Island. It has reaped Its goodly harvests for centuries.
