In some caaes these bave been offered at 2 centa each in¬ stead of 1 cent, wWcb is the price, but in neither case have the boys been authorized by the society to sell the stamps, which should be purchased only from members of the Antf- TvdMrculosis Committeeof the Neigh¬ borhood Workers.       -^

Village Employees
Get Needed Raiaea
At the regular meeting of the Free¬ povt Village Board of Trustees on Thursday afternoon resolutions were passed raising the salary of !all police¬ men who had served the village over 16 years (12 a month, an& of the rest $7 a month with the stipulation that each officer must maintain a telephone 'in his home.
The following increases in salaries at the municipal light and power plant were also made:
Joseph Raynor, from $72.50 to $77.50.
John B. Combs, from tS5. to 90.
Thomas Chilton, from ?100 to $105.
Police Justice Flint reported fines collected for October amounted to 1910.
Tax Oollector D. Frank Seaman was by motion directed to turn in his books to the Village Treasurer.

TO ADVANCE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE
To Our Subscribers:—
On and after this date the subscription price of the Nassau County Review will be $2 per year. We will bill ali subscribers to the end of the year now running, in no case beyond Jan. 1, 1918, at the former price of $ 1.50 per year and after that date at $2.
Comment as to the necessity of this raise in price wouid seem unnecessary. No business has been hit heu'der than the newspaper and printing trades by war conditions, and in order to meet a part pf the increased expense we must make this advance.
We have done our best to "play fair" with our read¬ ers. We have tried to keep in touch with the news of oyr locality. There now remains the necessity either to shut down on the news and the size of our paper or to advance the price and we feel that our subscribers will agree with us that the decision we have reached is the better one. Fraternally,

A MOTHER'S SACRIFICE
(Official Federation Report) We are using this heading this week, not because this is the only case of its kind, but because this is but one of many instances of why we will win this war—because our men go to fight for such mothers as this one, rather than because driven by a despot who has no consideration for anything but that which will ini^re to his own benefit:
This is an item from a Montana State paper, showing what one mother is doing for her country. We had the pleaaure of entertaining one of the Wright brothers in Freeport recently, whep he showed us the following clip

hood. In addition, all three of her sons are married and have left wives behind them.
Her oldest son, Henry Wright, en¬ listed in K Co. of the former Second Montana when the company was mob¬ ilized in Billings last Spring after war had been declared. After enlist¬ ing he gained considerable fame lo¬ cally by cleaning out a den of I. W. W.'s in a south side rooming house. Wright v/alked into the place and one of the "Wobbilies' rtiade an insulting remark about his uniform. He promptly floored him with a right to the jaw. Three other I. W. W.'s then jumped on to him, but he secured a poker and whipped the three of them. Charles Wright is also a volunteer. He enlisted in K Co. previous to the Mexican trouble in 1916 and served on the border with the company for several months. When the call came in the Spring, after the war with Ger¬ many had been declared, Charles was in Seattle working for the Pullman Company as a dining car cook. He was reached by letter and not arriv¬ ing in time to report with the com¬ pany in Billings, went straight to Helena And raported there.
John Wright; tiie third to enter the service, waa drafted and is in Bill¬ inga with the third contingent of draft troops.
While Henry and Charles were mob- iHsed at Fort Harrison, their father, Charles M. Wright, died at his home in Billings. Both boys were granted furloughs to come to this city artd at¬ tend the funeral of their fatlier.
Mrs. Wright has been a resident of Billings for the past 12 or 16 years, coming originally from Missouri. "All my boys are patriotic," ahe said, vrith moistfftied eyes that told of the moth¬ er love, which was secoi^d only to ber love for her country. "It is hard to see them one after another enter the service, but their country needs them and I know they will be good soldier boys. I do hope the war will be oyer before George, my youngest boy, is old enough to enlist."
Mrs. Wright makes her home with a married daughter in Bilhngs.
The three brctliers referred to in above    i^rticle ^are   at   Camp Mills,
strange land.
Colonel Screws said to me in com¬ menting on the hospitality his ijoys were shown in your midst that if our Southern people show as much hospi¬ tality to your Northern boys who are down there now in training, he will feel nlore proud of his Southern peo¬ ple.
Again thanking you and the mem¬ bers  of your Club for our  Alabama friends, and  thanking you personally for your favors to them, I am. Very cordiaUy yours,

The members of Advance Hook and Ladder Company sre making an ef¬ fort to establish a fire district in this village. It would seem as if thk was a step in the right direction. This would place the burden of supporting the fire department on the entire vil¬ lage instead of being shouldered by the few who are interested in the flre company as at present. These men are always ready to make the sacri¬ fices necessary at the alarm of fire and should not also be compelled to maintain the company financially.-

(Special  to  Nassau  County Review)
The most successful meeting ever held by the Brooklyn and Long Island District Luther League took place at the Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church. 1084 Lafayette Ave., Brook¬ lyn, on Saturday afternoon and even¬ ing, November 17. All expectations were shattered. The program was ex¬ cellent, as were the speakers.
FoUowing the regular business at the aftemoon session and several speeches by prominent pastors, came a very interesting addrees on "The j Deaconess at Work" by Sister Jennie ' Christ She expisined the work of the deaconesses and made an appaal fbr nore workers.
Sapper was served by the local League.
At the evening session Rev. 8. P. Long, D. D., of Mansfield, Ohio, de¬ livered a stirring addreas on "Resola- tioas for AU Lutherans."

We have in our midst children un¬ welcomed and unloved who have sen¬ timents as keen as yours or mine. Who will remember (hem with a filled stocking?
Then we have the poor who will have little on their tables and who would be forgotten but for a stock¬ ing. I wouki not forget the old peo¬ ple and those who will gather in mem¬ ory on Christmas Day this year where many from ouy homes of plenty have gone. In loving memory of thejn, let us give to the children.
