Freeporters Fly in
Curtiss Aeroplane
A Curtiss aeroplane came down from Farmingdale Saturday and Sun¬ day and carried passengers from Free- port who wished to ride at the rate of a dollar per minute. A number of citizens took the trip, including a Brooklyn Times representative, who made a short flight in the air, viewing Freeport from an even more exslted viewpoint than usual. Arthur Heinrichs, an expert in flying, who has been engaged in aeronautic work for the past ten years, was the pilot of the machine, yi-andings were made in the field west of the South Shore Yacht Club. An interesting feature of the view in the air was the pano¬ rama of the boats and streets with the little canal and the "toy" houses, as they look, along the sides. The ride in the air impresses one greatly as to the size of Freeport and its sur¬ rounding territory.—"Times.

How Visiting Soldiers
Enjoy Freeport Hospitality
Here are a few of the greetings on our registry book at the Soldiers' and Sailors' Club. The first one is from Benjamin Friedman, of Scranton, Pa., who has been at Camp Mills for many months: He writes in the book: "Discharged June 21, 1919. Good-lf>'e Freeport, many thanks for what you have done for me."
Then comes a lad from Florida: "Thanks for the strawberry short¬ cake."
A lad from Texas: "The best in the land."
From Oshkosh, Wis.: "Thanks for the chow."
From Tarrytown: "Of all the can¬ teens that I have ever visited, this is the best."
Another from Pennsylvania: "Too much cannot be said for Freeport for catering to the soldiers."
As an Iowa lad sees it: "The best place I have hit since I have been in service."
From a Michigan visitor: "This city certainly has a fine club for men in service.
From'Wisconsin: "The best place in the world for eats."
A Chicago boy: "Did he come nack for seconds ? I'll say he did."
And another from Chicago: "First cake in a year—Oh, boy!"

Spartan Lodgre, No. 956, which re¬ ceived its charter on June 21, has, l^rough a committee empowered to act, purchased the property of Charles D. Smith on West Merrick Road. The property is at present occupied, but be¬ ing Ar sale, it seemed a wise move to secure a site at this time, convenient to the railroad and trolley and at the same time handy for automobilists. The property is 200 feet deep, giving room for storage of cars in the rear, should it be necessary to use it.
