LAY COBNER STONE mSEVE£ SCHOOL
D. S. WELUNGTON C. MEPHAM MAKES ADDRESS OF THE OCCA¬ SION—READY FOR USE IN JAN¬ UARY. 1916.
The corner stone of the new Roose¬ velt school was laid last Saturday, many from Freeport and Heinpstead attending. The program was opened witli a prayer by the Hev. K. O. Tree followpd bv a flag salute ftrst by the lower then by the higher grades in tlie school, after which they sang ".My Country 'Tis of Thee."
\V. C, Mepham, district superin¬ tendent, was introduced by the Kev. H, I'ohlman, president of the board of education. .Mr. .Mepham's remarks were timely, after which W, Scher- niirhorii, principal of .Merrick school, spoke. Mr, Pohlman laid the stone, and was a.-^sistcd hy the otlier mem¬ bers of the board, .Mrs. J. Faath pro- I liiiiiied the stone sound; h3un<?ne Eld¬ ridge proclaimed the stone laid lirm: \V.

The million and a half voters of this Statu have exactly nineteen days left in whicii to familiarize themselves with the revised State Constitution, upoii whicli thoy are to vote on Nov. '2.
If a niajorty of the persons voting ca.st their ballots for the new docu¬ ment it will replace the constitution under which the State now lives. If a majority vote against it the old constitution will remain the basic law of the State.'
If all the amendments proposed in tlie document are approved by the Ilenry voters there will be no great change in the general conditions of tlie State, .straight and square, and Henry In fact, there wiii be no change whatever, so far as the ordinary per.son | Greensward proclaimed it level will be able to observe. The framework of the old constitution will reinain. A few new sections to the various articles have been added and some changes made in the old. Hut so far as the two documents are concerned tlie average person could probably read one after the other and not see where they differ.
The proposed document, however, represents much hard work by some of the most distinguished men in the State, As one of tlieni observed re¬ cently the 168 delegates deserve a great deal of credit for spending so mucn of tlieir time, devising a legal home for the ten inlllion people of the State to dwell in-a home which is indispensable.
The delegates met in Albany on April 6. They were practically in con¬ tinuous session till Sept. 10. Some of them did more work than they ever did before in their lives. Many of them did more than they will ever do again. For their services they received ? 1,500 in a lump sum. Some of the lawyers vvho played a leading part in the conferences have incomes ranging from flfty to two hundred thousand dollars a year.
It is without doubt an almost hope-
less task to explain to the great mass
of voters just what the proposed amendments mean, or why they vvere adopted. Campaigns of education are being carried on throughout the State.
More than a million copies of the revised constitution are being circu¬ lated through the State. Political orators are turning the verbal spot¬ light on it; but it is, nevertheless, a fair bet that the average person who casts his ballot for or against will have a good idea of what the amend¬ ments mean. ¦
Thirty-three amendments or changes were adopted by the'conven¬ tion. .'^11 but two will be submitted to the people in one group, to be voted on liy a single "aye" or "nay."
Two will be submitted separately. One of these is a new taxation article. The other is the .so-called reappor¬ tionment. Important but complex ar¬ ticles to be grouped under one head include Home Rule for Cities, Judic¬ iary, Budget, Short Ballot, Conserva¬ tion, Serial Bonds and Bill of Rights.
To most persons these mean little. To the makers of constitutions they mean much. The entire document has more than a local Interest because the eyes of a dozen States, on the eve of constitutional revision, are watching to see what the Empire State does and how the Empire State's innova¬ tions work out. To the great surprise of western students of government who came here to watch the work of the convention. New York went fur¬ ther in the direction of progressivlsm

EAST NORTHPORT PASTOR ILLUS¬ TRATES TALK ON "DEATH."
From the narrow (onflnes of a new cottin, standing upright, like a .sentry box in the pulpit of his church to illustrate his point, the Rev, Dr. Hu¬ bert C. Carter, pastor of the East Northport Methodist church, last Sunday evening, preaclied an inter¬ esting sermon on "Ueath," which, be¬ cause of the advertising it had been given, completely fliled the church and caused an overflow of hearers in the street outside.

BUILDINGS BEING PLAIJNED BY STATE ARCHITECT AND CUR¬ RICULUM ARRANGED FOR EARLY OPENING IN SPRING.
I'ciuliiiK Uie appropriation of funds for the maintenance of the new agri¬ cultural college at Farmingdale, L. I., known as the New York State School of Agriculture, .\. A. Johnson, di¬ rector of the institution, is making a course of study for prospective stu¬ dents of the college' which will be.in effect in March, 19 16, when it is ex¬ pected the State LegialaturQ will have set aside the needed amount. Dr, Tliomas F, Fiiinegan, of the State de¬ partment of education, is taking a share in the vvork of modelling the new curriculum. When the work of the comniittee of educators is com¬ pleted it is said one of the finest and most comprehensive courses in agri¬ culture will be at the disposal of stu¬ dents of Long laland.
In its uniijiie experiiiieiii in public education for the farmer, the State of .N'ew Vork will establish a splendid plant at Farmingdale. whicii vvill be a centre for information on agricultural subjects for a large section of the State. .'Mready the best teachers in this subject have been obtaiiK-d, and when the various biiildinus are com¬ pleted they vvill constitute the best (Minlpped agrii uliural plant for the education in this |iart of New York Stale.
Louis 1''. Pitcher, State architect. Is drawing plans for inm- buildings to be erected next year if the appropriation is made. These will incftide a dormi¬ tory for the boys, several detached cottage-s for the girls and a centrally located administration building to be used by the faculty. An appropriation of fully $5(10,ooo will be needed to carry on the work mapped out for lllKi, and Mr, Johnson a'ld his assist¬ ants are hoping that th • matter will be received kindly hy legisiatofs when the application for funds is made.
Among the many other things, Freeport has aciiuired a repuiation for good streets and thoroughfares for the past few years—a reputation doubly vindicated this year. Street Commissioner .Millard F. Bond has practically completed liis work for the fall and the village highways have never been in a more satisfac¬ tory condition. But what is more to the point, it is a fair assumption that the streets n Freeport are in a far better condition than those in any of the other Long Island villages.
Coinniissioner Bond lertaiiily plan¬ ned his expenditures carefully and iu such a way that every part of the village vvould receive some of tho beneflts. Approximately six thousand feet of new gravel road has been built lo .say nothing of the :i,,soo feci of road resurfaced with cinders and ashes. It is significant that low spols in the various parts of the village I have heen tilled in with over a tliou- I sand loads ol' dirt without cosl except jfor the hide of the teams and men.
Many streets liave been extendeu, several cut down to the proper grade 'while the hollows in many others j were lillcd notably those on Orand I avenue and on Madison avenue. Kvery street in l-'reeport lias been honed at least twice and oiled sb as to lay the dust as well as to preserve the surface of the road. The gutters vvere cleaned of weeds and all ob¬ structions removed so as to permit of the free passage of water,
.Mr, Bond has made a most exiel- leiit street coininissioiier; never fail¬ ing to be on hand in all kinds of weather to vvatch and guide the men in ilieir work. He is naturally gifted for the position, being able to level with his eye as elflclently as some do with instruments. He has in cases been a hard taskmaster but in every case a fair one. We are compiling a conijilele table of the work done on Freeport streets whicii vve shall print in the next issu(> of the paper.
Ali hail to Freeport's streets and to the faithful Streei roninilHaioner, .M. F. Bond.
DANGER SIGNALS
L, I. R. R. ADOPTS ADDITIONAL MEASURES TO PROTECT.
As a furtlier safeguard against the recklessness of automobile drive-rs at grade crossings the Long Island Hail¬ road is adopting a new form of watcli- iiiaii's danger signal. It has the word "slop" painted in large while letters on an IS-lncli red disk, and no one can mistake what they mean.
The adoption of the new signal Is part of the campaign started hy the Long island Hailroad last summer to induce auioniobile drivers to be more careful. The company spent more than $1,IIIMI in educational newspaper advertisements, palnti'd its crossing gates in zebra stripes to attract atten¬ tion, installed special heavy gates at some points and erected many elec¬ tric-lighted signs urging chauffeurs to "save their lives," .N'ot a life was lost in an automobile accident at a graau crossing on the Long Island Hailroad Ihis season.
