The matter of tuition of non-rcaldent Students In high schools is deserving of more attention than it is receiving, both Cpom tho school authorities and the ¦aneral public. Under the situation as It now stands, rich districts which will not go to the expense of constructing a high school because of the few pm)ils In the district, send their high school studente to high schools of adjoining Ing him wrong, and we can benellt by districts at a very nominal oxi^enae. l>oth his succsses and his errDrs.

assume that tbe best man won in each hMUnca and Ist ua all, as loyal citlsens. aa good residents of the village wherein we reside, oo-operats with tho new village officials in ali that is go<Kl for tbe whole people.
ISach new village board has much that wlil engage its attention this yskr. It Is going UThe a good year from a busi¬ ness standpoint and the different villag« boards could do much to make business better by adopting a progresslv/k attitude that would attract outside business.
There Is a|»o the opportunity for ad¬ vancement/to each of tho closely knit villages In this section by cooperation. It would not be a bad thing at all for the Village officials to meet occasionally with their neighboring officials to dis¬ cuss matters that might be of mutual advantage.
There are many ways that good would result if Only it lir&ught out an c^- change of ideas, and surely none of us know so much that we -can afford to ! ovcrlofik the suggestion from the other fellow. He may be wrong, but can strengthen our own conviction by prov-
Board of Supervisors, and he hoped to leave a monunient to Thomas A. Mc¬ Whinney In a pipe line tHSit wlU not come true for the next ten years.
A BOOSTER
Am I a booster of my home town?
I do not go around and say that my town Is the best town on the map, and tlwit we have the best ]>e<q>le, or any¬ thing like that. I can say though, that since the day I came here to live I have not spent a cent outside of the town.
The shops cnn suit my wife oil gowns and hatsand other things to wear. The butcher, baker, and grocer are as good! $2000 Fur Coat" as can be found anywhere and I am | Hhame, to "skin ' glad lo have what little money I earn circulated right In my own town. l\ always will be.
If everyone tlld that, and made less noise, wouldn't we have a peach of a village?

M^HINNKTH PIPE LINE
Our good old tpend. Hir 'Thonlaa. '
Has gently fortied upon us,
A tax that's goln' to hit ua pretty hand:
There was no chance of stoppin'.
Wben Tommy got to floppin'.
And 80 We have the mpelinc llouievard.
Tho result is that the diatrict maintain¬ ing the high school lias a very high tax l^te, while the district which "farms out" its pupils, has a ridiculously low rate.
Take School District No. 1, which in¬ cludes the village of Hempstead, and is probably the largest In tho county, for Instance. Tho tax rate in tills dlst'-ict is 11.70 on the $100 of a.s.ses.sed valua¬ tion, while some of the adjoining dh(^ tricts, which aonil their tiludcnts to the Hempstead High School get oc with a rate of only a few ccnt.-i.
Up to a couple of years ago, the t^arents iiad to iiay the tuition, and at that time the bigger districts, where high schools were mulntalncd, had a Uttlo compuHsion on the parents and made the rate as low aa possible for them. Kven tliat was a burden on some of the families who had—two to four children for whom they had to pay tuition. ¦" ""• ; ¦•
Then the State DejTartment ot Educa¬ tion made a ruling to the effect that high school training is a i>art of the education «f a chikl aitd that the dis¬ trict must pay it, instead of the parents. Almost Immediately a law was Jammed through the LcglslatJure for the benefit of the districts which maintained no high schools and had small tax rates, the jiurposc and effect Of which was to keep the rates at the low llgure.
This law provided that the State should pay fifty dollars of the' tuition of each student "farmed out," and that tho student's homo district Should pay the balance. But, it was also provided that the high school district could not change a higher tuition than was paid on a certain date bctorc the law became effective.
This saved the non-liigh school dis¬ tricts from paying for the education of their children and at tho same time compelled the high school districts to educate those children at the old price, or force them out ot school, which no school board fc^ls like doing.
The tuition in Hemiwtcad is $70 a year, nol including iwiyment lor certain text books for which an extra charge, amounting to $S a yoar, is made. The i^tate pays $60 of this, and the homo district iwys the balance, thus obtain¬ ing high school education fur its children at $25 a year.
Some other high school districts fare Biueh worse. Freeport, for instance, sola only »B0 a year, and $10 for text- boolu.
And Us the $50 tu'.tluji iiaid by the Stats is raised by general taxation, the hkjh «chool district which educates the child, helps pay the llfty dotlurB!
Concerted action on the part ot high school authorities might be eKcctivo In amending tho law so as to make an equitable distrlbut'ton of the cost of high Bchosl instruction.
At any rate, a new year Is starting for the villages. Let us forget old dif¬ ferences, let us heal old wounds, and let us Jill pull togctho rfor the best community In the best part of this great Empire State.

He has succeeded in getting for Qreatcr New York an approprialion for a State highway, Homcthing that has never been done before in tlic history of tho State Highway.s Department. He has succeeded in taking frum the State at large a great sum of money for the Improvements of a road within the greater city ut a time wlien the State roads outside of cities need all the money that can be raised.
He has succeeded in getting through u bill that provides for an appropriation In a year when the watch word is "economy," with a big "K." He haa succeeded In proving that Assemblyman McWhlnncy is a big man with his fellow Legislators, with the additional proof tiiat it he can do this thing now, ho could have done much more for Nassau County than he has done.
If he could Jam tho pipe line boule¬ vard down tho throat of the I,egislaturo and Governor Miller, he could have co¬ operated with the Botti-d of Supervisors which body had opposed tho pipe line thing in getting the l..aiieviow Seaman Avenue highway routes improved at once.
The pipe line boulevard stops all State highway work In thl8'*iounty this year, if the State "Highway Commi.«sioner selects It UH the route to improve. With tho pressure ot tlio great city of New York behind him, the commissioner Is rather apt to make that his choice, especially when it will be carrying out a highway that runs fair into Brooklyn.
Mr. McWhinney says ho will ask the people what route thty want Improved. And if the people a^cct somo other than the v'lpe Hue roujie will the commls- alojicr agree with them? llo will not, and Mr. McWhinney knows, he will not.

Albany, -March 22.—With open wcath-1 er throuchnut the entire state, all rec-1 ords in antoinobile registration have I been broken in the Secretary of State's! olBce during the last elctat weeks.
Nsarly frve million dollars, or to be I exact, •4,774,128.77 has bwn collected { from the motorists and chauffeurs, thtel sum exceeding by more than a mllUoa a like period a year ago.
Comparative flgurea reveal that about 8& per cent of all the cars registered last year have already been provltled witb this year's plates. In aome coun¬ ties, it Is more mA'* ^ P^'' cent.
A few thousand cars are Jacked up waiting for more balmy ttsys, but they ara mighty few compared with tbe state's total.
Predictions are already being made as to this year's Increase, some claiming that it will equal and p<}sstbly exceed last year wben 111,267 mdre cars were added to New York State, while others assert that each year brings the state closer to the saturation point and that consequently lower figures must bo ex¬ pected in the way of a year's registra¬ tion.
Secretary of State John J. Lyons Is predicting a registration this ^-ear of 800,000 cars, basing his figures on a com¬ parison of this year with the- last two.
There is also a heavy increase ap¬ parent in tho ranks of the chauffeurs.
f UT DOWN EGGS FOR WINTER WHILE THE PRICE IS LOW!
There is nothing mysterious in the business of egg pi^serving, und no great laiwr. Eggs are comparatively cheap this spring, a condition which should encourage thrifty housewives lo put down a supply for use next winter when prices will rise again.
Rules for keeiiing eggs in water glass arc given by the U. S, Department of iVgrlculturc. To be presert'ed properly eggs should be put into' water glass \vhen absolutely fresh. The eggs should be clean, but it is belter not to w.osh them. Eggs wltli dirty shells can be used tor immediate consumption and tlic clean eggs Ix' preserved. Cracked cf^g.s, or tho.sc with thin or weak shells
