Pef&ps no candidate for the oSlce of Town] Assesor at tbe spring elec¬ tion is better known than Clarence A. Edwards, tof Freeport. Born with the stuff in him that makes men of value to communities, he has become a business man of keen acumen ap¬ preciated for the soundness of bis advice. As an example of a, self- made man he occupies a unique pk tion. He is distinctly fitted to be a public servant.
The career of Mr. Edwards has not been of the meteoric sort, but rafher that of steady, solid growth—a growth gained by strict honesty and square dealing with his fellow men. His public and private reputation is unblemished. He was born in Roose¬ velt of worthy j»arentage and has lived on Long Island in the Town of Hempstead all his life. His familiari¬ ty with real estate, comparative prop¬ erty values and building construction are assets which make him of-double value to the taxpayers.
Mr. Edwards is quite appreciative of the importance of the office to wtiich he seeks electlq^i. In an inter¬ view with a representative of the pa¬ per he outlined tbe basis of his can¬ didacy m a way worthy of the con¬ sideration of every taxpayer and vot¬ er in this township. He said, "The office of Town Assessor is one of the most Important in tbe regime of gov¬ ernment; it requires unlimited but lil>eral and cbnAervative considera¬ tion. If elected I propose lo deal fairly and equally with every property owner. I am deeply sensible of the responsibility <)f th0 offloe."
A man who has made a success in his private life and private busineiK can't help but make a good public official. Mr. Edwards has been in the real estate business all, bis life. He haa bought, seld and handled real es*' tate in ill parts Of the Townahip, from plots of 20 by 100 to plots of 100 acres. For three years he has been associated with .the dean of real

estate brokurs. Henry P. LIbby. He has conducted a general fire insur¬ ance business which has served to Increase his efficiency in determining property values. For more than fif¬ teen years Mr. Edwards has been per¬ sonally and financially interested in tbe construction of buildings and has acquired a knowledge in this line surpassed by a few.
Through his political and business connections Mr. Edwards has a large acquaintance throughont the Town and County. He has gained a well earned popularity for fairness. He has always been a Republican and has worked staunchly for the princi¬ ples of the party. He is a memlM of the Freeport Club aad was one of (he charter members of the Freeport Lodge of Elks. He ia public spirited lo a large degree. And it can honest¬ ly be said tbat no man has t>eea more loyal to his principles.
Mr. Edwards makes real estate and property appraisal bis bttSiness, not a Bide line. This makes iiim doubly competent for the office, Be haa probably made more appraisals ia this Town and County for reputable title companies of New York City au tbe East than any other candidate running for office. He has become a criterion on real estate values.

CHARITY WORKERS AND ORGAN¬ IZATIONS REJOICE OVER WELL DESERVED VICTORY
Freeport, N. Y., March 23—Yester¬ day was a gala day in this village, especially among the charity work¬ ers and in the charity orgaoizatlons. Freeport heads the list of winners in the New York Stale Competition to sell the most Red Cross Seals per capita, aa announced by the State (Charities AasoClation, and it Is proph¬ esied that the village will also be one of the winners In the National con- teat. The announcement of this vic¬ tory came to Mrs. W. H. Cutler, sec¬ retary of the Neighbors Workers, in the following letter from the State Charities Aid Asscd^tJon:
Mrs. W. H. Cutler,
210 Merrick road. Freeport, N. Y. Dear Mrs. Cutler:
It is a great pleasure tq>notlf) you that your village has under your agency won one of the pen¬ nants awarded in the Red Cross •Seal competition in New York State
A banner suitably inscribed will
be presented to you in the n«ar future.
Accept our hearty congratula¬ tions on your success.
Your." very sincerely, (Signed) C. M. deForest,
Sales Manager.
The other winners In the State are Garden City, Corning, New Rochelle, Troy and Rochester. The percentage in Freeport was 8.11, the highest of any and all the cities with a popula¬ tion ranging from 2000 to 500,000. Four of the seven wjaners of the Na¬ tional contest will undoubtedly bu among these New York State cham¬ pions.
Banners are lo )>e presented to the tuberculosis organization which con¬ ducted the sale' in each of the vic¬ torious villages as token that in buy¬ ing seals its residents contributed In the average more generously for anti¬ tuberculosis work than any other vil¬ lage or city in the same population class.
Former records have been shat¬ tered for the number of sealA sold per capita of population, in spite of hard tlioes and relief of war suf¬ ferers. The total sale of the .State shows an increase of 1.700,000 over the 1913 record.

I going to make the place famous.
' The play i"* a remarkable and in¬ tensely dranuitic one. especially adapted for photo reproduction. Aa Ihe name implit',s, it affords Sulzer an opportunity to picture vividly his .so- called Murphy intrigues, s The ira- l>ea(,hment proceedings will be gone through ha.stily^ the original films of the trial beint used. The play wli be produced in New Jersey within the next few weeks under the per¬ sonal direction of The Davenport Film I'rodueini; Company. The flrst reels will be .shown at a private ex¬ hibition at th<' Plaza, this village.
It is quite po.sHlble that the produc¬ tion of Ibis pl«>' may lead to the eW 'abllshmept of n very large studio in this section. Since the formation of the Governor'.s Hoss Corporation, Mr. Ellison lias betn instrumental in In¬ teresting several large concerns in tbe project and one cimpany now has oi'tionh on thr'.c separate pareels of land.
The home otlice of tho "Hoss" Con. pany Is in this village. It's directors' are well known men of desirable sUnding. II is predicted that the re
stead, during the past two years un¬ der the direction of Supervisor Hiram it. Smith, has experienced a most economic and efficient administration.
His administration has Indeed been a most eventful one; essential roada and crosa roads have been resurfaced and rebtiilt; an apiH-opriatlon of $6,- 000 a year was secured from the State for the improvement of town water¬ ways; tbe fight for equal taxation was successful and $354,000 has been awarded to the town, and the book¬ ing of the ofilce of Supervisor has been entirely systematized and the accounts thoroughly itemized. It can honestly be said that no man has ever worked toons consistently for the wel¬ fare of tbe Town of Hempstead and the County of Nassau.
The 107 miles of County roads have neevr been In better condition. Over t«B milefi of new roads have l>een re¬ constructed; more than twenty miles resurfaced. The Merrick Road from City Line through Rockville Centre was entirely rebuilt and put in ex¬ cellent condition under a guarantee bond of $2.S,000 deposited with the county, for five yeara. "But a single Instance of the far sightednesa of Mr. Smith," said a prominent citizen of Hempstead. "Six new bridges were built and the approaches resurfaced, a vital necessity."
During the summer months flVe dif- I ferent road patching gangs with their ! tar kettles, oil, stone and gravel were employed to fill up and patch the holes and depressions In the roads. This accounts for the smooth, even surfaces of the highways.
The approjiriatlon of $5000 for wa¬ terways waa equitably spenl for the benefit of the baymen in the north ern, aouthem and western .section. I
Long Island R..R. Has Spent $50,000,000 in Improvements
New York City, March 25.—Presi¬ dent Ralph Petera of the Long Isl¬ and Railroad suggeata to stockholders in his report for 1914 that $33,000,000 new stock be authorized, and a part be Issued in exchange for the com¬ pany's short-term debentures and ad¬ vances made to affiliated concerns. The stock ao exchanged, the report says, should be non-cumulative pre¬ ferred stock, and the toUl a.utborlzed would approximate the road's long- term debt.
The probable terms under which such exchange could be made are not stated, and the report says that the matter will be further considerea by the Directors before being put be¬ fore bond-holders and stock owners for their opinion.
"This would reduce the debt." says Mr. Petera. "which ia so large aa com¬ pared with the capl^l stock, and al¬ low the company a period in which to obtain the best results from thes^ outlays without increasing the burden of fixed charges."
A part of the annual SUtement was a description of tbe outlayc of tbe
since the Pennsylvania Raproad ob¬ tained a controlling interest. Charg¬ es were made last January by a min¬ ority stockholding interest headed by Dick Brothers * Co. of this city that grosa mismanagement had resulted in great benefit to the Pennsylvania and damage to other shareholders Papers containinis; this charge were served on the Long Island Directors last we«k, and it is expected that a suit will be brought against the Direc¬ tors by the complaining aharebolderti in the near future.
The report states, In regard to im¬ provements, that fully $60,000,000 has been s(tent on electrification, grade crossinga, new equipment, and addi¬ tional track construction. Removal of 30* grade crot*lngs alone has cost $13,000,000. If the Pennsylvania haa not guaranteed many of its bonds, tbe report says, tbe Long Island would have bad difficulty in raising neces¬ sary funds.

of the town. This appropr&tion was largely formulated and urged by the Supervisor.
A most striking instance of econo¬ my and economic management is in the interest accounts malntaied by the Supervlaor with the various banls. On the balances carried In these banks he has received to dat^ in Interest over $3000. "What otu«r Supervisor ever did thla?" asks a res¬ ident of Freeport.
Hardly bad Mr. Smith assumed o- flee when the Board of Tax Commis¬ sioners .decided adversely against the Town in their fight for tbe equaliza¬ tion of
towns. Bboud an appeal be taken? Mr. Smith persistently maintains* that the Town of Hempstead was In the right and ener^et|c|illy urged the appear, which will net tJie town $354,- 000 in rebates. He had the courage of his convictions and defied the tax commissioners in their unjust and Inequitable decision.
When Mr. Smith assumed office he at once revived the projeci of addi¬ tions to the Court Hones, tnrujifii his unu.sual interest in county affairs. It was largely through bis initiative that the great cost of reduction was re¬ duced to .•'. minimum by the elimina¬ tion of ginger bread construction.
Supervisor .Smith haa not been heralding his achievements but has been devoting his every minute to the affairs of the Town and ('ounty. He haa become Intlmateiy acquainted with every detail of the administra¬ tion. He ha.s served the people. They know It. Hence their unanimous choice."
The office of Tax Receiver is one of the most Important to be voted at the Town election and tbe man elect¬ ed should be one wlio will not only protect the Interests of the residents of the Town but one who will admin- i.sler tho affairs of the ollice econ¬ omically an^ in n business-like maa

T. O. H«adley, Slate Ritomologlav of New Jeraey, gave Information that proved helpful in eliminating mosqul toea in New Jersey. Dr. Frank Over¬ ton, State Health Inspector of Long Island, also waa present.

Then my wife got a severe cold my two chil¬ dren got mild colds and then I got the worst cold I have had in yeara. Ijastly, my secretary, age twenty-five, Kot a sevete cold and suddenly de¬ veloped a severe pneumonia.

The department saya:
"Pneumonia is a germ disease and often spreads from one person to an¬ other in this way. If, however, tbe people who get tbe germ into their noses or throats are strong and well they may only have an ordinary cold, while If one la run down and In poor condition a real pnet^monla may de¬ velop.
"Working too hard or plSying too hard (as la the case quoted above) ia a common factor In preparing tbt' way for pneumonia, and one of the reasons why pneumonia rises to Hr height in March is tliat at this season iur vJtullty ia at its lowest ebb alter the long winter.
