' However Patchogue has lost its claim to being first in the list of tax rates , for this year Holbrook heads the list with a rate of $2.75 compared with $2 last yea r and many others of the , districts are to have a higher into due to hew school build- ings in those districts.

Every preparation has been made for the election Tuesday, and there will be officials at the Young Men ' s Ropublican Club headquarters ' in the Conklin building all day ready to ans- wer questions relative to voting, qualifications , etc. There wil be an assistant attorney general there all day to rule on any questions that may come up, and also special deputy sheriffs in . case any trouble should arise in any of the districts. For any information that may be desired the telephone number at the club is 1827. Voting machines are up in all of the districts with the ballots lined out as they will be for the election Tues- day so that voters can familiarize themselves with the machines and know just how to operate them in . the least possible time Tuesday.

Those voting even for the first time who wore eligible to vote prior to January 1 , 1022, muy vote with- out literacy teat. Those new vot- ers who have become eligible either by attaining their majority or by having become naturalized after January 1 , 1922 , should present to tho election board an eighth grade certificate or Its equivalent , or may take a literacy test from the jprincipul of the nearest school,and receive a cer- tificate to bo. presented at the pojls. The test is simple and brief and rid new voter should hesitate to go to this slight Incon- venience to Insure the exercise of the highest duty of American citizenship. ¦gWHWWWWWMM U I L I UI I l il MUWlMI I'l .

Vote Earl y to Make Sure of Your Vote Tremendous Registration Presages Long, Busy Day of Balloting— Don ' t Get Forced Into the Last Waiting Line T TNLESS the registered voters of Suffolk county go early to the polls , which open at 6 a. m., and close at 6 p. m., on Election Day, next Tues- day, many may lose the opportunity to cast their vote. The tremendous in- crease in registration has created an unusual situation which unfortunately cannot be cured for this election , other than by the voters themselves recog- nizing the necessity for going early to the polls to cast their ballots. In many of the election districts , allowing the lawful three minutes for the casting of each vote , the entire 12 hours that the polls are open will be consumed; and in some districts even then it will be impossible for every registered vote to be cast •Under a recent ruling of- the attor- ney-general , -all (voters in line at the time of the closing of the polls where the polling place is not sufficiently large to contain such voters , shall be allowed to cast their ballots as though they were actually within the polling place nt the closing time. Voters should insist upon exercising this priv- ilege , if- necessary to insure their franchise. Hojvever , at the best this may- be a pretty uncomfortable experience , and it can be avpided by , turning out early, _ as the polls are . seldom rushed in the morning. \ County Republican Chairman W. Kingsland Macy urges all those inter- ested in a large Republican majority to vote not only early but as speedily as possible , and asks all Republicans to make certain that their votes will be counted in this important election; pointing out that there is no higher prerogative of American citizenship than the exercise of their franchise. Charles J. Odell of Patchogue , pro- bation officer for Suffolk County, is a member of the program committee of the twenty-first • annual state con- vention of the probation officers to be held in the Powers Hotel in Rochester , on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, November 12 , 13 and 14. . and close at 6 in the evening, but by a ruling of the attorney general all people standing in line at the time the polls close will be allowed to vote. This means that the returns from many of the districts will probably be late in coming in as it is expected that it will bo seven o ' clock or later before the voting is finished in some sections where the registration is heavy.

WRECKED BEACON REPLACED Deer Hunters All Over the County As Season Opens Four Killings Made By Bo- hemia Club Members Fred Gordon of Patchogue Gets a Buck—Loti of Tracks But Not Many Deer Seen—Upton Section and Wading River Popular ; TV7ITH the woods throughout the \ middle of the island fairly over-run with hunters all clay yester- day the fi rst open deer season on Long Island in many years started. Few tracks and still fewer deer were reported. Brookh aven town enter- tained its full share of huntsmen from sunup to sundown. Noise dry leaves under foot and thick dead foliage on the trees made poor ' hunting condi- tions. A checkup last night at several key points where the hunters were thick- est revealed the fact that nc deer had been taken there. The heaviest hunt- ing ' was done back of Yaphank to Manorville and in the Wading River sections , according to people who were familiar with the situation , but no kills were reported there , and none through'the Moriches on the south shore. ; ' On vast' areas such as Camp Upto n and the club and ocrsonal pre- serves no hunting was allowed. Two city cars passed through hero yesterday afternoon late with their day ' s work. One carried a fairly larcre buck , the other a very small one. The woods were \ well policed bv game war- dens from unstate , there being about 50 on Long Island.
