Chairman Baker of the Dinner Com¬ mittee acted as toastmasler. Presi¬ dent Thompson gave a short speech on the welfare of the Cluh, its progress, etc. He spoke of the Club's preaent indebtedness, saying that it was as small if not smaller than any other club of its size. He also spoke of how the different comiriitteea w«re pro¬ gressing, and with the help of the members he hoped to make this year a banner one.
Chairman Baker next introduced ("ol. James Dean. Col. Dean's address to the diners was very intereating. He .spoke of how he and several of the present charter members met in the little paint store of Richards & ("o., on Main Street, (the Levy Building now Htands where Uiat store was).

REGARDING VILLAGE AFFAIRS III this i^,8Ue we publish an item aigned by p. A. Jordan, relating lo the oil burners at the Power House, and other village matters. I have fre¬ quently stated that we want the Nas¬ sau County Review to be YOUR paper, and so long as contributed items are evidently honest and contain no per sonal reflection upon any person, and are not advertisements, we are pleased to give theni snace, as we think pub¬ licity is good for puhlic affairs.
I have been told that President Lamb has remarked that the Nassau County keview has never treated him fairly, and that it wouM not lie so bad if we told the truth, evidently blaming us for th( publication nf thi.s item. If the statements in the item are correct, . (flnd Dr. Jordan i:< the authority for theni) I havo no apology to make to any one, hut if, as I am told, Mr. Laniij remarked the Review had piib- lisheil false statements about him, he certainly ia not treating himself or me fairly, aa I am alwuys remly to correct any statements made whiL'h aro not true. .A.- a matter of fact, it aeems initirubable that Mr. Lamb could have

Suppjse you lived in Brooklyn and wanted to gel out to Freeport early in the morning, and upon consulting your time-table, found that the first train lelt at 8:50 and reached Freeport at 10:10. Then suppose you should take that train and after leaving Jamaica j ciub7 ' the conductor ahould call out the sta-' tions aa followa: Locust Avenue, I Springfield, Valley Stream, Pearaall'a Corner, Rockville Centre, Baldwins ville, or that ahould you decide to go ; beyond Freeport and hear the atationa j called out thia way : Merrick, Bell- ! more, Ridgewood, South Oyster Bay, ! Amityville, RrcsUa. Babyon, I won der where you would think you were. That was the experience the Editor I had recently, in looking over an old time-table left in our office by E. B.

Adjoining from ihe banquet hall to t"he liorary where the musicians played and sang all the latest up-to date songs of the day, rugs were taken trom the floor, several iflembera danced buck and wing; othera sang, and taken all in all, it was the most successful din¬ ner ever given by the Club.

Concerning the Fuel Test and Kindred Matters
An crticial test has just been ci::n pleted at the Village Powei Hou-e to determine the relative economy of coal or oil as fuel for generating the pow¬ er rtquired to pump our water sujiply. light our streets and dwellings and lo iiroved ' furnish power fer sucb as desire t>i use electric power.
For six days the plant has buriied 2-'i3ii gallons of oil per day at a cost of .0285 per gallon, or $72.2l> daiJv. To produje an equal amount of heiit. using c.ja!, would require ten ton-^ at H cost of f3.nil per ton. unloaded at the Poacr House, or .*;i9 per day, thus showing a disparity in favor of coal of • •'33.26 cents per day. This would mean more than a thousand dollars per month additional expense if nil were substituted for coal by the villHge authorities. Bui this ia nol all.
I am ipfonni^d that ont; lireman cmi ottcnd to the fii'cs vhen coal is used and that then lie Iras considerable time which can be utilized in work needed in the plant, bui that when oil is used two men are reqjired and !iolh of them clost'ly occupied. .As tho plant runs day and niuht this would rnean an ad¬ ditional expense of two men's wages which would increase the expense by more than ii lliousand dollars aduition al. It has eost the village between $l.')Oil and .S'.'iiOi) to ascertain this fact, wiiich might have been as certainly iletermined al an expenditure of lO cents for pencil and paper. Kor there is a definite number of heat units in a pound of coal and in a jiound of oil. These values are constant and inllexi llle. Nature has fixerl them and man cannot alter the ratio. It is as srveii to nine. .Now it is plain that if oil costs a ratio higher than that ii is tie most expensive fuel. There are lour- tcen thousand heat units in ii piiirid of coal and eighteen thousand in a pound of oil. There are eight pound- of nil in a gallon, and it ii'i,iiir( ^- nlmui Pij (lounds of ci^mI lo equal the etiiciuncy of 1! gallon of oil as a heat generator, .•\t the prices given above, ten ai.d a half pounds of coal costs about one and one third cents less than a gallon ol oil having equal efficiency The work¬ ing oul of this ^iiuplc proliiein u.niid have saved a good round sun, to Ihe treasury of the village.
II appears certaiii alao that the lile cf tho big boilers would be consider!!- tjly shortened if oil were to be ifted, owing to the more irregular and fitful nature of the...combustible. liidei ,1. so far as apiiears about the only gain to lie credited to oil consumption i^ to admit the stateiiient of the facetiou? ccrrespcndeiit ol the 'fronklyn Kagle i and have the lireman or firemen dress ill white naiinel or while duck.

FJach table was lettered and the members of each table had their own call. Between the songs monologues were given hy Joa¬ eph Mezo, of New York City. Chairman Baker of the Dinner Com¬ mittee acted as toastmasler. Presi¬ dent Thompson gave a short speech on the welfare of the Cluh, its progress, etc. He spoke of the Club's preaent indebtedness, saying that it was as small if not smaller than any other club of its size. He also spoke of how the different comiriitteea w«re pro¬ gressing, and with the help of the members he hoped to make this year a banner one. Chairman Baker next introduced ("ol. James Dean. Col. Dean's address to the diners was very intereating. He .spoke of how he and several of the present charter members met in the little paint store of Richards & ("o., on Main Street, (the Levy Building now Htands where Uiat store was). Willis' bowling alleys waa another meeting place. Thia building has also gone; it atood where the present Olive Boulevard now joins Main Street. How they finally tunned the Freeport REGARDING VILLAGE AFFAIRS III this i^,8Ue we publish an item aigned by p. A. Jordan, relating lo the oil burners at the Power House, and other village matters. I have fre¬ quently stated that we want the Nas¬ sau County Review to be YOUR paper, and so long as contributed items are evidently honest and contain no per sonal reflection upon any person, and are not advertisements, we are pleased to give theni snace, as we think pub¬ licity is good for puhlic affairs. I have been told that President Lamb has remarked that the Nassau County keview has never treated him fairly, and that it wouM not lie so bad if we told the truth, evidently blaming us for th( publication nf thi.s item. If the statements in the item are correct, . (flnd Dr. Jordan i:< the authority for theni) I havo no apology to make to any one, hut if, as I am told, Mr. Laniij remarked the Review had piib- lisheil false statements about him, he certainly ia not treating himself or me fairly, aa I am alwuys remly to correct any statements made whiL'h aro not true. .A.- a matter of fact, it aeems initirubable that Mr. Lamb could have made such a statement, as we have Tbe topic of the Epworth League always found him to he very outspoken devotional meetings next Snnday ev- and if we hnvi said anything aboui ening at the M. m.

Adjoining from ihe banquet hall to t"he liorary where the musicians played and sang all the latest up-to date songs of the day, rugs were taken trom the floor, several iflembera danced buck and wing; othera sang, and taken all in all, it was the most successful din¬ ner ever given by the Club.

The Concerning the Fuel Test and Kindred Matters An crticial test has just been ci::n pleted at the Village Powei Hou-e to determine the relative economy of coal or oil as fuel for generating the pow¬ er rtquired to pump our water sujiply. light our streets and dwellings and lo iiroved ' furnish power fer sucb as desire t>i use electric power. For six days the plant has buriied 2-'i3ii gallons of oil per day at a cost of .0285 per gallon, or $72.2l> daiJv. To produje an equal amount of heiit. using c.ja!, would require ten ton-^ at H cost of f3.nil per ton. unloaded at the Poacr House, or .;i9 per day, thus showing a disparity in favor of coal of • •'33.26 cents per day. This would mean more than a thousand dollars per month additional expense if nil were substituted for coal by the villHge authorities. Bui this ia nol all. I am ipfonni^d that ont; lireman cmi ottcnd to the fii'cs vhen coal is used and that then lie Iras considerable time which can be utilized in work needed in the plant, bui that when oil is used two men are reqjired and !iolh of them clost'ly occupied. .As tho plant runs day and niuht this would rnean an ad¬ ditional expense of two men's wages which would increase the expense by more than ii lliousand dollars aduition al. It has eost the village between $l.')Oil and .S'.'iiOi) to ascertain this fact, wiiich might have been as certainly iletermined al an expenditure of lO cents for pencil and paper. Kor there is a definite number of heat units in a pound of coal and in a jiound of oil. These values are constant and inllexi llle. Nature has fixerl them and man cannot alter the ratio. It is as srveii to nine. .Now it is plain that if oil costs a ratio higher than that ii is tie most expensive fuel. There are lour- tcen thousand heat units in ii piiirid of coal and eighteen thousand in a pound of oil. There are eight pound- of nil in a gallon, and it ii'i,iiir( ^- nlmui Pij (lounds of ci^mI lo equal the etiiciuncy of 1! gallon of oil as a heat generator, .•\t the prices given above, ten ai.d a half pounds of coal costs about one and one third cents less than a gallon ol oil having equal efficiency The work¬ ing oul of this ^iiuplc proliiein u.niid have saved a good round sun, to Ihe treasury of the village.
