I took occasion at the cloae of the cerem07Hes on Registration Day to thank all the oreanizations for tjho part whi'h they had takcii in the iiiiii- onstration.
I woulil like to convey one further word, if you will permit, which is the deep approi.-iation which we hi-.vc of the splendid work of the Woman's Relief Corps who had reprcfcentntiv>3s with badges for the registeied men at ra'.h rcuistrf.ticn place We all wi.sh to than!, them for what they did

Everett Brooks of Wantagh, while riding a wheel along the Merrick Road in company with Bert Jacobson of the same village, last Saturday evening, was struck by an automobile near the corner of Newbridge Road and seri¬ ously injured. Dr. H. V. Holcomb, who passed shortly after the accident happened, summoned an ambulance from Mercy HospiUil, Hempstead, to which institution Everett was re¬ moved. An examination showed that he had sustained a severe fracture of the hip, concussion of the brain and possible internal in,juries. The auto¬ mobile did not stop after the acci¬ dent and although the police were notified all the way lo Jamaica, the occupants evaded detection. The nuniber of the machine was not ob¬ tained.
