To the Village Board of Trustees, Freeport N. Y. Gentlemen;
. The Onslow-Moore Co. now developing a large tract of land in the southwesterly part of your village, most respectfully request permission from your Honorable Body to beautify the street centres in Archer Whaley and Rose Sts. west of Bay View Ave. also from Rose St. to Southside Ave. by in¬ stalling flower beds, surmounted by a small curb to prevent wagons from driving close ancl destroying the shrub¬ bery. It is intended to leave ample space between the beds that vehicles may tum and move without interfering with each other. The expense of beauti¬ fying these streets, as proposed, will be borne wholly by the Onslow-Moore Co. and further more the Onslow-Moore Co will free the village from any loss caused by installing of these parkings, or if at the end of twelve months your Honorable Body should find that tnese pairings prove a detriment to the vil¬ lage we will remove them at our own expense.
Trusting that our request may be granted at your next  meeting and  our

Presbytery Meets
Ths Presbytery of Nassau held their annual Fall meeting in the New Hyde Park German Presbyterian Church on Tuesday. Wbile there waa no exciting matter before the Presbytery, the meeting was interesting and the time all too short for a full consideration of the many varied interests of the differ¬ ent churches. From 9:30 a. m. to 4:30 p. m., the various items of business were earnestly considered. Then a devotional (prayer) meeting was held. When the first, hymn was announced, the leader called for someone to play tbe piano. None but thc dominie from Bellmore was able to answer that call.
Most of the churches were represent¬ ed by the pastor and an elder.
Some important overtures from the general assembly were approved, and one such disapproved.
One of ^e important duties of this meeting 18 the examination of the records of each church by representa¬ tives of some other churcn, and thus a uniformity of church government is conserved.
The ladies of tha\' church thought that the dinner was the mwt important pwrt of the prognun, and right well did thsy perform their duty,

There is a bell at Bellmore Av. and one coming for Bedford Ave., but these safeguards are not all the precaations that are needed to protect tne lives of the travelling public. What we mean is that there is a noticeable lack of whiatle blowing on the part of tbe en¬ gineers running fast trains through here. They come upon a crossing in no time, so to speak, and very often is not sounded. We should think, for bis own peace'of mind, the engineer would try to remember that he has a whistle cord in his cab.

Sewage Map Voted Down
The tax-payers Monday voted down a proposition to spend $1000. for a village map in anticipation of a sewer system being installed at some future time in that viUage. The vote against the pro¬ position was 137 and in favor 106. There was ooe defective ballot and two blanks cast.
The committee of citizens which in¬ stigated the movement to have a map made called public meetings and did everything in its power to arouse inter¬ est in the project and worked energeti¬ cally to get the votes in line last Mon¬ day but the odds were to strongly against carrying the project through. There were a good mamy stay-at hsmes which is a matter of regret. The Mea¬ senger believes that the proposition was one of sofflcent importance to warrant the interest  of every  property ower,

A more effici- cent fire alarm system is to be installed at once" It is proposed to place a large whistle on the pumping station of the Brooklyn Water Works where steam is always up and some one in attendance. A telephone will bo installed at the sta¬ tion and the village divided into districts. Cards wiil be printed and scattered abroad giving the number of the vari¬ ous districts. In case of fire the station may be communicated with, and the number of districts where the fire is being given, the one in attendance will blow the appropriate numl)er upon the wbtistle.

either for or against it. Some of the properiy owners voted against the pro¬ position Oli the idea that Freeport does not yet seed a map or sewage system, others were against from the stand¬ point that they would be obliged to .pay taxes, or interest, on bonds for some else's benefit, as it was not intended to cover the entire Village with the system if it was decided to erect one at tbe outset. A few voted against it (jecause of tbe mistaken idea that a map meant a sewage system must follow. Tbey made no secret of shouting aloud ^at they didn't intend to be put under the obligation of a bnndred thousand deilar bond issue and be harped on tbe lires¬ ent ^bt of the vrillage as a bugaboo. Surprising as it may seem, fram a source interested in real estate de¬ velopment also \same opposition.
'Vnth the inciease in po];mlatioa and enchfunent of vdues, meaning a berger asaesnent roll, Qte Messenger bdheives that Ithe ideas of the outstanding debt, pretfluding the CKpenditure of $1M0. to be vadiculous, ahnost too narrow to per¬ mit ef controvewey.
Uader existing conditions it has be¬ come generally necognized that Free- port veeds sewMe. particuiariy in the closeilf built se<:ik>n8. It "has got to come. The situation is clearly op to the pnmerty owaere. pther i^bges , are ts&uigup the proposition and some,' includhig Rockvile Centre, have pro^ greased so far as to have maps made and wM shortley vote on the question of installing a plaat or system. Sball Freeport stand bade on such an import¬ ant matter, when it will become a small sized dty, and coatinue with the ob¬ noxious and expensive cess-pool system which rt has at tlie present time. We think not.
The committee of citizens should not be discouraged by tfae vote of Monday. Its labors have just begun. The in¬ ception of the proposition to have a map made was a step in tlie right direction. With a little taon educaiton on the sewage qnestion, a stronger pull to¬ gether to bring out a fuller vote there 18 little or no doubt that the property ovmei's will take tbe necessary step in the lino of progposa for wiiicfai Freeport hjss poea noted.
