Freeport, N. Y., Feb. 17, 1920. Editor of the Nassau County Review. Dear Sir:—
Aa I am a candidate for Village President of the Village of Freeport on the People's ticket for the election that is to be held on the 16th day ol March next, I desire to state to the citizens and taxpayers of the Village of Jf'reeport that certain charges or misrepresentations have been made renrding my candidacy.

Howard Pearsall
IS a Candidate
Editor Review:—
May I state, through the columns of your paper-that I surely am a can¬ didate for Village Trustee, despite reports to the contrary? My business is less than five miles from Freeport, which I can reach in less than a half hour if needed. My time is my own as far as village affairs are concerned, ihrough the courtesy of my employtr.
Inasmuch as three of the five prei- c'ut members of the Village Board arc engaged away from Freeport, one in Hempstead, on^ in Mineola and one in Brooklyn, further comment seems umieccssary.    Thank  you!

The Community Church
What shall it be? In these days tbere seems to be in the popular mind MB idea that denominations should be done away with and every communi¬ ty ahould have one church adequately supported and attended by everybody. It sounds good. Especially the latter part, "attended by everybody." Can auch a thing be brought about in Free- port? We are sure Father O'Toole would assent to it heartily if we would let him or his bishop chose the kind of church. No doubt Dr. Burnes also could easily decide the matter if made a commitlee of one with power. These worthy gentlemen from devout and unaelflsh standpoints could lead us worthily, but would we all follow ? And are we all bigots because we would ¦not? There is something to be dis¬ cussed and Rev. Gould proposes to discus it on next Sunday morning at hia service at the Presbyterian Church. What he has to offer will he interest- injg
Attention! Bird Lovers
Last Friday Miss 'Townsend, secre¬ tary of the Bird Club of Long Island, made an appeal to the readers of this paper to feed the birds this winter and explained several very good ways in which this could be accoiii;)li jhed. , In early August a few of u.s boys atarted a club called the Bird Protect¬ ive Association. We have a number of Associate memb>ir.3, but not nearly enough active membois. There must be more people in Freeport who wi.;h

the fear of God as an option and proclaim their candor and the inde¬ pendence   of  religious  beliefs   in  the

With such startling facts clearly es;; tablished the great denominations are awaking to the necessity of practical co-operation.
No such facts as these can be es¬ tablished in Nassau County, but we will not know how matters are until a survey is made. Such a survey is now in progress. Roosevelt has been covered already. Rockville Centre is being done now. The man in charge of the wofk in Nassau County is Rev. Edmund F. Albertson, recently of Clifton Springs, N. Y., but called into the Inter-Church World Movement and now a n^ident in Brooklyn. He comes to F'reeport with a staff of helpers who will direct the work. He asks the clergy to co-operate and will use what help the local congregations can furnish. The results of this sur¬ vey will be left with the local clergy¬ men and also will be recorded in headquarters.
It is hoped tkat these canvassers will be helped in their work by a cour¬ teous reception and a ready answer to their questions. There is absolutely no proselyting contemplated. The Ro¬ man Catholic priest will be furnished with al] data relating to his people and the officials of the Jewish Syna¬ gogue will be given their data also. It is hoped that Freeport people will meet this movement in the real Free- port way.

One merchant has made himself solid with his customers in Merrick and added to himself boosters. It is .1. Hanny of Smithville South, who purchased William F. Kraft's meat market la.nt fall. During all this ter¬ rible winter when going was impossi¬ ble, we would have believed had he .said so, .Mr. Hanny has been deliv¬ ering his meat regularly to his cus¬ tomers, footing it through the drifts and over the ice burdened with aheavy grip. As one man has put it: "He has us now; for who would have the nerve to give up a man who has served us like this." Indeed, it wili not be for any small reason that such effort and service in the trying time of this win¬ ter is overlooked and a time, too, when most any excuse serves for some vie- glect of responsibility.
