iOBH FOR THE JUULE88
The Importation of noKro labor from the South into the Rlverhead sectioft of Lon; Island aa the Holutlon ot the farm labor problem has been attempt¬ ed.
The farmer, nectlins help, at u cer¬ tain period cannot wait for help to ap¬ pear. He mUBt be forehanded and have his crops iilanted at the right time lo Bet the best results. Time and tide waits for no man and that old saw never wfia more true than in the casn of the farmer. When ho needs help he needs It badly.
But conHldoriiig all thJH ia it iicces- sary to Import negro labor In large numbers?
Mr. Board of the employment buresi't for this and Suffolk countlcH says that he hopes to avoid the neeeasUy for this and adds that the nesro is needed In the South and that he dixfo no: lit liitr) the environment of the farms on tioni; I.sland.
But the real situation that Is ahown fii this labor problem is that there are Jobs lo iK! had at from »00 to $75 a month wilh house rent free, wilh vei;e- tuhlcu free and wilh fresh milk fn.'b. Thero Is also opiioilunlty for tbi' woman of Ihc family lo have h«»ilt;bfu!. happy homes, (Jod's fresh Jilr .'ind huh- shine and a means to earn .some moiiey also.
From Mr. Board's story there are Kootl jobs goinir bcKKing and a real need for farm hands. He Is i>repal'ed to tell anyone who calls on him at his ofliee tn Mineola about the require¬ ments and just where the jobs may l>b had.
tOM.Ml NITV IIOl SK MCKIIKD!
Itiat la op«n to us, Is not always the ijest kind.
Then why not liie best kind'.' We believe that liempetead's good folk are ^lUinir to aee only the best, to havo only the Iieet. We think that one failure with one club only shows the need for It.
Of courae the mere opening of a Community House or a club, no matter how flne It may lie, will nut Itusure ita success. It must be a real democratic institution wherein no doctrines or theories arc Jammed down the throats of men who want merely recreation and entertainment or social felldwship. It must be free from things that Imply obllKalions and most of all tmist it have a director who Is a real man't man and Wlio knov^rs how to attract and entertain men.
It mlBht nol be an unwise thiUK to have a dormitory connected with it for theie is a lack of a«commocUition for the occasional visitor to the village. In fact there is a lack of places where a single man may make a home. The vllla.i;e residents are generally hospit¬ able and open their doors to the stranger within our gates but there arc many men who, being naturally re¬ ticent, will not live m the private homes of others. Many of these men could be made most comfortable in such a dormitory and there tViey would llnd a congenial fellowship wilh others like themselves.
8uch a dormitory nilKht be run al a profit. Surely there could bo no lyss to a eommunit.v iiou.se or club that ia open to everyone.
There are endless poHyiliilities in such a project. There are endlcs.s pu.'^ slbilitics for good to those men who are l>lg cnouKh to "put tlii.s thing aerossi." It will need concerted action. It will need help of all the people and It will not need those reactionary folk who always look for the rcastins why Ihey .should not do a tiling, rather than look lor the iiuuiy reii.sons why tln.-y .should do it.
It is a projoet tliat loiild be lakeii up by private eltii'.cn.s. The Chamliei of Commerce might well bonsidcr it umung its activities. Tho yd'agt' biiai-d mii;ht I'aUier it allliougli they einild iKudly luki^ ullu'lal artliin except alter a reierciidum vole on it, but even that is not hucIi a remote ilea.

¦Why not a Ciimmunily llnuise for Hempstead'.'
AVhy not a place where all the youiiK men of the village can meet, havo Kocial g.'itherlng. have ladies' nights, for it is good for tlie young man to engage the attention of u good girl, havo athletic g-amos .ind all kinds ot indoor sports, have rejiding rooms and classes for entertainment ahd educa¬ tion and In short have everything that means recreation, diveriilon and broad¬ ening of mind and body'.'
Why not have such a place'.'
Other places, some smaller, some larger, some not_ so progressive and some even more pi-ogro.sHive than Hempstead, have these tliing.s.
Is there any real reason why Hemp- etead cannot take care of Its youth in the proper manner?
Is there any real rea.son why Hemp¬ stead's young men must seeki their recreation in places that would not have such benetlcial Intluences?
tlomeonc, reading this, Is going to remark tlmt wc had St. George's Club at ouc tluic and that wcvcould not keep it going or that there was not enough interest In It toi warrant keeping it up.
All right. Admitting that fuilu'ro is there now any reason why a Commun¬ ity IHcAiHe ia not a i-eal need in Ilemp- steudf village?
A stranger here iisked us rccently What we did In the evenings and it was a hard thing to answer him proiierly. W© found wto havo a mighty ptnit time of It after the day's work Is dope, and unless we want to work a little, more, after ono full day, we had only to go to bed and get ready for the morrow.
And the early to bed early to rise nai^ is just as good now and no better, thtin 'It ever waa but there wtll" c^me a time w^u^jiwcT all will soak divenion. Infrequently tho diveTslon
The American l.,eirl()n could Kct II went after it vigorously enough.
In short it is a project that the whole villa.tre, every oiKiinlzation, every in ds|9(lu!il and to which all of us cmuld well give our wholehearted effort and support.
'rhc suggestion is offered gratuilious ly. The community huuse will cost hard work and money. Can il be done?
A DKSKUVKI) TRIIU'TK
It wa.s !i line and well deserved tri buto that was paid to' tlie retiring Chief of I'olicc of Heinp.stead, Uobert Vandewater. Tho gift from the men who had long served under him, vain able and haadsumc as it is In it-self. was but a token of the love and esteem in which he was Jjeld by those who know him best—^a feeling which we can all understand, Init which we can not express in words,
Thoutth simply a rememberance, .11 will serve to keep fresli the memory of the times, often trying but never ithelcss always iilcaf-ant, that have gone by,
'rii^ expression on the ixtrt of the e Board comes from men who
ViJKtgt
have known tho chief cither oilicially or i>rivately for many years, ll wns doecrvetl, also and wos no duubt ae acceptable a.s it was doservt^d. For what man who has given tho best years If his life to a cause fails to have a feeling ot satisfaction when he hears it said, "Jell done?"

Teresa Carrcno. the greatest woman pianist, died almost five year?! ago. Today many ambttlotw piano fledglings, backed by overzealoiw managers, are clutching frantically after the "mantle Of t^rreno," even without ever having kn(f»ii this great artist or heard her play. There i.s, how¬ ever, a noted woman pianLst before the l>ubllc today, who can speak with nti- t hoi ity on Teresa ^arreno nnd her great art. That pianist Is Winifred Byrd. and recently she condescended to tell a little about her association with the great Carreno.
"In the first place," began Mi.ss Byrd -in her ar>artment near Riverside Drive, New York, "If anybody told rne when I tii-st started to study f^iano that I would ever become a pupil of the great Carrcno, I would have dl.sniis.sed the Idea from my mind as being too highly improlKible. To me the name t^arreno spelt everything in the world. To ine she was a kind of goddess descending to earth to charm mere mortals, or I should say, goddess in the pianistic world, for surely no one of her sex has ever equalled her before or since. Her name to rne, as it wa.s to many another student, spelt Romance, ro¬ mance of the most elusive and golden .sort when it came to actualities, the longed for romance on which every young girl's life is founded, whether she liaiipens to be a musician or not, onl>- if .she be a musician, then il is more in¬ tense, more stirring."
"How did I eventually come to study with her then, you ask?"
"I'm from the Northwest, as you may know—Oregon, the land of big oi)en .-paces and the part of the oountiy that 1 love the best, although I have seeir all of .\merica from Canada to the^Mcxi can border. There is .something about tile 'biKne.s.s' of thi.-* couiitiy tliat I try lo reflect in my playing, for I want my playing to carry with it the fresh ^e.s.s of a pine-laden breeze blowing down from the mountains bringing s whiff of the heights to the jieople liv ing in the crowded valley.s—I want it to^ be big and broad with nothing of the" picayune and fussy al>out it."
How well Mi.ss Byrd has succeeded in llii.s iiarticular can best be seen In what Ihc Clitics have said about her ITi speak¬ ing of the broadnc.s.s of her style and the fresh sweep of her playing.
"Ciui Baerman, at the New Kngland C'on.servatory of Music in Boston was my liiHt teacher of importance after 1 had decided to adopt music as my life's work. Mr. Baerman was a direct pupil of Bis/,t. When i ciim<: under hl.s tutelage, he was an old man, but one of the most excellent teaciiers 1 have ever come in contact with. 'He ivas thoroughly iinbui;d wit ll the noble bi.^zt tradition—the school that died with Carreno, the .scliool of bravura jilaying of wliieh there itj i>ractically uo exponent today," Miss Byrd said modestly.
".Model 11 i>iaiiu piajiUK," Mi.-<s Ijjid continued seiiou.sly, " i.s a different tiling. It is rrioie scientittc, moie hard iiid brilliant, more a thing of the mind anjf^ot of tlie einotion.s—like a game ot chess 01 the study of any of the sciences. One wonder.s .sometimes why many of the modern 'wizards of thu keyboard don't have Ihe doctors come in beforehand and dl.ssect the nuisie .all over the piano .so that tlie public might see exactly how it was ptil together n^il not leave any emoliouei in it whatever. "When I graduated from the Con.sei-- vatory. I naturally wanted to go to Kuiopc to continue my studies. To this effect I /talked wilh George W. Cliudv.ick tlic director of tho Con.seiv:'.- lory, and one of the be.it American mu¬ sicians alive today. He advised me to go to Berlin and in a perfectly matter of fact way mentioned Carreno's name as a prospective teacher. Carreno! I often wonder nowadays if Mr. Chad- wick remembers the look on my face. "At flr.st there appeared to be un- .suiinountable difficulties in the way. Then money enough was given me to lasl a year abroad, and^thi.s, together with the money I was able to make myself from playing, enabled mo to go ahead with plans to contiuuc .study¬ ing in Europe.
"Then the unexpected happened—Car¬ rcno came to Aemerica on tour. To mc at last it was tho beg liming of a dream come true.
"I heard her flist in Fortland, Oregon, near my hontc town. Her playing 1 remember as supremely wonderfi'l. There was soinething about its fire and dash, the hroadncss of her style, that swept you off your feet, as that of no other woman 'iiianist ha.s ever done. After her suiicrb performance, I was taken back stage to meet her. My memoiy of this event is even more con¬ fused. I only remember a tall, queenly woman of unu.sual beauty that smiled encouragingly at iiiy .stuttcrings. To this day I don't know how I managed to do it, but iiomnhow I gathered cour¬ age t<»~6tanimcr: 'I am coming to Ber¬ lin to see you I' And then my goddfc.s-s spoke., just as if it were the most nat¬ ural thing effir: 'I'll .see }>oi» la Berlin.' "How the time dragged beflTr» full! At,last I KailtJd from New Vork unn«!di wilh the following letter:
Dear Mine. Carreno: I am Bend¬ ing a most musical Utile Voglcin (bii^lNng). whom 1 know you vrill teach to fly. (le<jrge W. (.Siadwlck. "Berlin! 1 spent no time, however, in sightseeing, hut next day, after my arrival sought the hou.sc of Mada-rnc Oirreno on the Kuriurstendamm. At

Carreno in reply—tho first in a long correspondence I ever receivefl—In which she invited me to call again that day.

"Madame Carreno was a remarkably brilliant woman, bestdes being a pianist of world fame. Pho excelled as a Un. ;,'ulst.- Often I have been at her house when she was entertaining and heard her carry on an animated conversation with famous artists ol various nation¬ alities in aa many as seven different languages!
"The name ,that Air. Chadwick had culled nie—Voglein—in his letter to Mme. Carrcno stuck. This was the fa¬ miliar title by .which hhe gradually camu lo call me as our intimacy grew. Often ( jIC would say to me In one of her serious mood.s: 'Voglein, the wings are gelling stronger every day. We must be^in to IliinK- .about flyiiu; very soon now. ll will be one of the hap- pi(-st days of my life when you open a concert In Berlin ""iilaying tlie Bach li minor suite.'

Has fallen on no oni'," .Mis.s Byrd
wns quick to declare in most eini)halie
tones, as if she had intuitively anlui-
ed the question bel'oie it had been
lusiied.
"But the liite James Cibbons Hiiiie- ker w;is kind enough to refer to you in this re.sjiect," the interviewer pio- tcsled.
"Tliat'tt natural, isn't it," Mi.ss Byrd answered. "Y'ou cannot be under fhe influence of a great artist, a striking personality, and not feel it. But then it does not matter whether you be man. woman or child, big or little, it is tbi! conception you have in your own mind of the mu.vic you ar<' interpreting, and every mind it difCerent. How foolish to iwelond that every pupil who studies with a great master acquires some ot the 'mind' of that master! How foolish, when you come right down to it, for any artist to be kiipwn as the iiupii of anyone! Wc are all individuals, and as such give of our Individuality and originality in the playing of music, and of our "mind' that is (lifCerent. "
