As a result of the initiative of El¬ vin N. Edwards, the Red Cross beach party on Monday, July 29, netted the Freeport Branch treasury $265.
For this the Creat South Bay Ferry Company gave up their entire receipts for the day and donated the us« cf their boats. Capt. Joe Raynor, Capt. William Carman, Captain Augustus Denton and Harry VanRiper also do¬ nated the use of their boats. We are very grateful to all who so generous¬ ly contributed.
Again we wish to emphasise that the Red Cross work rooms are opened both mornings and aftemoons every I day excepting Saturdays for the mak¬ ing of hospital garments. We have a large quota to fill and need the as¬ sistance of all.
W. Atwood French's family. A tele gram received by his sister Tuesday from Washington informing her that her son, Corporal A. Prescott Blake, Ca A, 9th D. S. Infantry, was killed in action July 18. He was 35 when he enlisted at Providence, R. I., his home, and was sent to Syracuse, N. Y. in charge of his company to join the Fighting 9th a year ago.
He ia survived by his mother, Mrs. Annie E. (French) Blake of Provi¬ dence, R. I., and sisters, Mrs. Alma Aimee Gregory and Mrs.Marie Louise Ballon of Maine, Fla., also two sons.
On Saturday last Captain- French went to Harrison, N. Y., for the week¬ end to visit hia nephew, J. Lcuis Greg¬ ory, where all the family and child¬ ren had gathered and while out for a ride to Stamford called at the P. O. end received a letter from him post¬ marked somewhere in France, June 27th, in which he said he was well, not to worry, and was in the trenches and they were ready to give the Huns
    (the censor had cut the letter
in two and sent only half of it) also had received the boxes she sent him, not to send any more as jorders were out they would be on the move and could not be carried, and he had every¬ thing he required. In the same mail | she received an insurance policy from Washington, which he had taken out on his life for her. He wrote he ex¬ pected his intereat money soon and wold buy some more bonds for her. He was a good Christian man and spent his time off duty in the Y. M. C. A. Both idolized each other, and it will be a lamentable blow to her at ber age, 73.
She freely gave him to her country and in retum he did all he could do, he gave his life for Humanity.

OBITUARY
ADOLPH LEVY
Adolph Levy, age 64, died Wednea¬ day night at St. Vincent Hospital after having been ill for several months from stomach trouble. Mr. Levy was able to get aroufid and partly attend to business until quite recently, but a week ago he was taken to the hospital for treatiffcnt, and continued to fail until the end came Wednesday. The funeral services will be held from his late residence. South j y]^^ Board Main Street, Sunday afternoon at 2:80 with interment at Linwood Ceme¬ tery.
Mr. Levy was born in Moscow, Rus¬ sia, and eame to the U. S. when still a young man, and shortly after mar¬ ried Miss Annie Katz of New York City, a sister of Dr. Katz, for a Jong
which co-ntention he was backed by his attorney, Harry G. Clock, that his agreement was not binding and that after he left the village it was no af¬ fair of thc Health Board where he went.
At a recent meeting of the Board, Frank Bailey, who was on Mr. Rem¬ sen's bond, gave notice that he wished to have the bond cancelled, which was accordingly done. At the meeting of the Board Ust Thursday, Remaen pre¬ sented a new bond with William Dun¬ lop as surety.    The Board refused to
I accept the bond.   Mr. Remsen walked
out and  in just six minutes by the
watch   rtfturaed   w^th   his   attorney,
who demanded  an  explanation from
It did not take him long
I to g)gt it. Mr. Maxson, answering for the Board, said: "I am not in favor of accepting any bond from Mr. Rem¬ sen. He is a well-known violator of the laws of the Board of Healtli-'' Mr. Clock in reply stated that the trouble!
es to announce that commencing Mon¬ day,. August 5, the Chapter House Surgical Dressing Model Workroom, will be open from 11 to 4 p. m. daily, except Saturday, for any of the Branch workers who care to make dressings there.
The Chapter officers deem it ex¬ pedient to open this workroom at this time, because owing to the difficulty in obtaining material in sufficient qua-.itities to keep the Branch work¬ rooms open, many of them have had to close temporarily. It is important that those in charge of tbe Branch workrooms should keep in touch with the Chapter during this period, as we may resume actively at any time.
The furnishings of the room were, the gift of Mrs. William G. Loew, of Old Westbury.
Very truly vours,
CHARLES W. HINTON, Secretary.
Choral Sodety Forming
There have been many singers in the town of Freeport who have been eagerly looking forward to the com¬ ing of the day when a'first-class chor¬ al society would be maintained in Freeport. Such a day has finally dawned and such a choral society is to be organized about the middle of September. It is purposed to give an open invitation to all who can read music and have a fair singing voice to join the new organization. Those who have a natural voice, but possess little knowledge of reading will be given free instruction. Those who have the matter in charge desire to make Freeport the musical center of Nassau County and are willing to work hard for this accomplishment. The plan is to prepare and train a chorus of about one hundred voices to render one great ovation about Christ¬ mas time and another about Easter. This will make a year's work worthy of accomplishment

The Patriotic League promised to do some work about five weeks pgo The Patriotic League is proud of the work it has done and would welcome visitors any time who are interested in seeing all that has been done, and all that is going to be done. Every¬ one in Roosevelt may help the Patri¬ otic League by saving everything that might possibly be used for the com¬ fort of/soldiers and refugees. Not a- thing will be wasted and there is a great effort to use everything to its best possible advantage. Please save your tin foil, old kid gloves, old clothes and pieces of cloth. No piece of cloth is too small to give to the girls. Now that the giris have worked so well together the next thing is to find a way for them to play  together.
Young   Women's   Club   of   Roosevelt First Aid Class
Plans are laid for organizing all the young women of Roosevelt into a club for doing all patriotic workwhich is neede<l. The first thing which the club will do is to work every Friday evening at the Red Cross. When the plans for the Red Cross were first made the evening hours were ar¬ ranged so that the girls who work in the daytime could have an oppor¬ tunity of service. If all the girls work together, the work time will be changed into a social good time.
A first aid class is being organized in Hempptead for Hempetead and Roosevelt girls. All those interested in taking the course should apply at once so as not to miss the first les¬ sons.
It has been suggested that the club give a picnic in a pleasant place near town and after the picnic supper have a community sing and program.

Three trustees were elected Tues¬ day night at the annual meeting of the school district, one of the number being a woman, which established a precedent in school elections in this village.
The original notice of the meeting called for the election of only t\#o trustees, but the resignation of Trus¬ tee Louis J. Hall necessitated the el¬ ection of an additional member. Mr. Hall resigned as he is about to leave the village.
There were 112 ballots cast and the following is the result: Miss Mary Southard, 71 votes; William Totten, 68; H. Livingston, 60; Orlando D. Baylis, 57; Edward F. Curtis, 42.

Woman Hurled
Through Windshield
Mr. and .Mrs. William Eckers of 84 North Prince Street, Flushing, re¬ ceived severe injuries last Sunday morning when the motorcycle on which they were liding crashed into an automobile, driven by George Mer- endez, of 218 South Bayview Avenue this village, at the corner of Church Street and Merrick Road.
Menendez was going east on tbe Merrick Road, and turned to go north on Church Street, when the motor¬ cycle, which according to witnesses, was going westward on the Merrick Road at a rate of 2.5 miles per hour, hit the automobile. The force of the collision was so great that Mrs. Eck¬ ers was precipitated head first through the windshield of the Menendez car.
Police officers from the Freeport headquarters, situated near that cor¬ ner, rushed out with a stretcher and carried Mrs. Eckers into a nearby drug store, where she was cared for until the arrival of Dr. Harold Run¬ cie.
Dr. Runcie found the woman suffer¬ ing with severe lacerations of the arms and legs and a deep scalpwound. Mr. Eckers escaped with a slight wound on th eleg. After receiving medical attendance the Eckers left for their home.
Mr. Menendez was not injured, but hia machine was quite badly dam¬ aged. The motorcycle also was bad¬ ly wrecked.—Daily  paper.
