"I would shoot any man who tried to racclnate my children against their will or mine," the Manorville justice j ia Quoted as Ba/ing, and Justice | Oreen la quoted ai expressing the ex-1 treme views that vaccination la a; farce, and compuiSory vaccination Is unjuat.
While the weight of authority with respect to the val.ie of vaccination as ft means of inakln/$ a person immune may be with the advocaLt-d ot vaccin¬ ation, many perboau protest that it is for the individual i.o decide whether or not he wants to bu vacLinated.
The Court of Appeals haa juat de¬ cided that because a parent doea not believe in vaccluaiiou Is not sufficient reason for the autiiorltles keeping his child out of school. Tho case befor© the Court was thnt of Hagbard Eker- bold, of tbe Bronx, wbo was fined 15 for violating the coinpuKsory educa¬ tion law. Kkerbold refused to have his child vaccinated and the author¬ ities would not pe.mit the child to at¬ tend public achool.

She waa penitent,— contrite; ahe had a definite opinion of ber conjugal relatione.
"My husband epanked me," ahe told tbe Court, "but I disobeyed blm and he did rlgbt to punish me. I think every wife should obey her huaband. I promised to do so when I marreid. } I shall never disobey him again."
Judge Salmon, who is not a stem justice, permitted her to withdraw the charge. Having no. doubt tbat tbia case will be argued eloquently before many courts which ait within tbe home, we have presented tbe bare factB.
ELUOTS POEMS FOR THE CHILDREN
Sometime ago Charles W. EUlot, former president of Harvard University fere a list of books wbicb could be accomooated on a five-foot shelf and which be said would give-anybody a liberal education.
Now tbe diatinguiBhcd educator would puab tbe booka over a little to make room for three poems v.hich he says every child should read.
They a^e "Tbe VUlage Blackamlth," by Henry Wadaworth Longfellow; "Abou Ben Adbt-m," by leigh Hunt, and "To a Waterfowl," by William Cuilen Bryant
in many of our Mchools theae poema are part of the regular reading course in Kngiish. They are charming poema.
Tho Na<'sau i'ost prints one of them here. It will print the othera. To those of us to whom tbe poema are familiar, another reading will be aa an¬ other inhalation of tbi; fragrance of tbe roae.
If there should be a strike amon^ the actors, we respectfully suggest that the board of mediation and arbi¬ tration meet In Freeport where moat of the really distinguished member» of the profes.iton live. The good of¬ fices of the Nassau Post are hereby tendered In an effort to bring about a settlement on a satisfactory baslH.

In threatening a divorce suit against her husband, Adele Ritchie names the touring car as the third party. Thia is a pleasing variation.
Mra. Edith Robbins, of Bayside who at the age of 15 married Clarence Aaron Robbins, a young millionaire, is now suing for civorce. We cannot permit thla Incildint to paas wltbout quoting the moral for auch case^ made and provldeil to wit—"Marry in haste and repent Mt leisure."

BPANKUrO WIVES '^Pbe purely political phases of the Womon'a Rights q lestion baving been somewhat elaborately considered by fbe enthusiastic udvocates and the earnest opponents of tbe same all over Long Island, it seems not amiss to direct attention to a aocial and do¬ mestic s'de of the question, which is certain to make food for thought aa well as conversation.

THK BFE AIRSHIP
Tbomas A. Edison has discovered I In the bee a principle upon which to create a new aeroplane.
"As I watched a bee," says the in¬ ventor "1 realized that a heavier than air machine of great weight can be built as soon as we obtain something tbat beats the air at the rate of 200 times a second.
"That bumble bee was one Inch long, three-eighths of an Inch In diam¬ eter, with a wing one-quarter inch wide and five-eighths of an inch long. That bee weighed 7,000 tlmea more than bis wings. If we can only got to that, that is tbe thing. The bee's wings beat the air 300 times a second.
"A bee works on sound waves. Re¬ member the air Is rigid as steel If the pressure Is only sudden enough. Give ua something that beats the air 200 times a second and we will bave a real plane."
Over at Mineola the air pilots have studied the swallow, the crow and the sparrow in an effort to flnd a helpful bint aa to filgbta. Some of tbem have been "atung" wltbout a bee.

I'or he owes not any man.
Woek in, week out, from morn till night,
You can hear hla bellows blow; Vou can hear him swing bis beavy sledge,
Wiib measured beat and slow, Like R fextou ringing tbe village bell,
Wben the evening aun is low.
And (hildren coming bome from school
look In at the open door; Tbey love to see tbe flaming forge,
Ai>d hear tbe bellows roar. And (.aicb tbe burning sparks tbat fly
Like cbalf from a threablng-fioor.

And sits among bis boys; He hears the parson pray and preach.
He he.iiE his daughter's voice Sing'ng in the village choir.
And it-makes his heart rejoice.
It sounds ot him like her mother's voice
&iiiL;infc in paradise! He needs must think of her once more.
How in the grave she lies; And with his hard, rough hand he wlpea
A tear out of hia eyes.

Our fortunes must be wrought; Thus uu Its sounding anvil shaped

"The ViUape Blacksmith" has beeii learned by thousands of children, and there Is no crlticifim to be put'upon it. The age of the child has little to do with his learning it. Age does not grade children nor Is poetry wholly to be grailcd. "Time Is the false reply." — '^

Things You Can Do During June
Freeport Commencement Vernon L. Dav.^y, of Es st Orange, for thirty years supprinten lont of the public Bchool, haa been secured to make the address to thc ^taduates on commencement night. Mr. Davey will in all probability speak on "Practical School Training."
Little Catherine Dunn was deter¬ mined to follow a professional career when she set out alone from Freeport to join a vaudeville troupe in St. Paul The fact that she was stopped In Chicago by a policewoman did not cause her to waver in ber purpose. The history of the stage la replete with stories of delays, but there was never an Instance where any ever In- terfered with the ultimate success o^ one who set out to be a star. Miss Dunn haa demonstrated that ahe Is out to win. Her frienda here hope she will.

In the annual address before the convention of tbe Episcopal Diocese of Long Island at Garden City, Bishop Burgess said that the churches fa¬ vored arbitration between contending peoples, and between capital and la¬ bor. Favoring a policy is one thing, and engaging actively In the further¬ ance of It Is quite another. Do our churchea intereat tbemselvea enough In tho borad work of bettering man¬ kind? j
