So far , November has been kind:— Commuter, \ , are displaying their new pink passes; the wom en folks , are sporting furs , and the weather has been cool enough to allowr*he,,win- : - ' dovvs to be closed against the., flying cinders. One man , a casual traveller who is not compelled to make the daily trip, told the writer that he went oftener than was absolutely necessary because of pleasure he found in meeting his friends , and in \ passing the time of day \ , \Good morning \ and \Good night?' , with the conductor and the courteous mem- bers of the crew. Dr. Cairns In language that is flow- ery but not unmerited says; \What a romping field of daisies and dande- lions is the agreeable soul l What a shower, of laughter beautified by a , rainbow of gladness is \the compan- ionship of such ! The day and the hike are all too short and the clocks seem to leap forward like kangaroos to their lairs. \ .Amiability Is sincer- ity and good manners in action. We are glad to be able to say that Hallowe ' en passed off all right, The frolic was celebrated in a way that seemed to satisfy, - without doing any wilful damage. The youngsters in this case seemed to have; in mind the Golden Rule; an example tiiat gives »s older boys something to think about. Whoever had the say in the ' word- ing of the call for the last special school meeting used the sentence (for a building) \ which shall replace the present school building \ . If this must be construed to mean that the present handsome structure must be enti rely abandoned it is a pity, in the minds of many people. This fine ex- ample of Colonial design was drawn by A rchitect Green of Sayville: The ! late Edward R. Shaw , Professor of Pedagogy of New York University, was president of the Bellport Board of Education at the time , and George Carman was the contractor. The re- sult was a model of excellence in every respect. The heavy timbers , sound-proof floors , lofty ceilings , and the attention given , to lighting, tind : ventilation . are all evidences of the intelligent efforts used to riialc , e it a worthy .model r Why, 1 if we remember correctly, even the windows * are of the finest plate glass. We have been informed that the additional rooms , required could be obtained in a man- ner to comply with the building laws by extensions north and south , and that we have ' land eonugh to accom- moda te the growth of population for the next fifty years. The four-to-one vote for consistent economy (by the taxpayers ) ia a guarantee that our board has the support of thtv people in that direction. And the wording of the call does not bind the board in one important particular: it did not say when they had to begin : A neigh- boring district had four meetings be- fore they were satisfied. One of the most recent arid satis- factory expenditures of money was Patchogue ' s decision to insure mem- ber. '- of tho Volunteer Fire Depart- ment against accident. Communities always take pleasure In that wort of appreciation for duties well perform- ed. Score a lilting climax for Fire Prevention Week. The t'urmtant Increase in' taxes can- not be illumed upon the Increasing cost of state government as much as It cnn be upon thc extravagance of villages and townships throughout the country. There Is a township near Buffalo that lias an ofllclnl whose an- nual fees amount to ovor forty thous- and dollars , nearly twice the salary of tho Governor of the State. It may not be considered clubby to s\it\ nk of these matters , but it scents unjust when no many of us are uncertain nbout the whero with all to buy the necessities of life. ^Illllllllllllilttliiiianilllltlllllllllllililllllllllllllllllllllllllinilllllllllllllllllllllltl*a*i .

CoMrriBht. 1927 BATHING IN COOL WEATHER . During the summer time people enjoy going about with the minimum of clothing and indulging in swimming and lying on the beach clothed only in a bathing suit. As soon as the weath- er begins to . get cool ,. however , they bundle themselves up in clothing and aVoid exposure not only to the sun and air-but also to cold water. The extra clothing not only interferes with skin activity so that\ elimination through this organ is reduced , but holds the inpurities which are brought to the surface of the skin in continual contact with the body instead of al- lowing them to be washed away with the water , air and sunlight. . Peonle really need to bathe more frequently in the winter . than they do in the summer , but the vast majority of them bathe far less. This is one reason why there is more sickness In the winter than in the summer. Ex- posure li) the air and sunlight will , of course , have to be modified to some extent in the winter time , but by con- tinuing the exposures while the weather is gradually getting colder the body.may be accustomed to a sur- prising amount of cold air. Moreover , an air bath taken in a warm room will be of much more value than no air bath at all . The air bath is not * as valuable as the sun bath , but should not be neglected just because tlie sun bath cannot be obtained. Finally, there is no reason whatever why the benefit of cool bathing should not be continued during the winter time. In these days all nouses are- artificially heated and a. cold bath can be taken in a iparm liatM-oom the same as , it can ' be taken in warm weather out of doors . It . . can even be taken in a fairly cool room by warming np first with exercise , deep breathing and a dry friction bath, Where warm-water is available a warm bath may precede the cold one if the room is quite cool. . Persistence in the use of air , sun and cold water baths during the win- ter time will not predispose one to colds as many believe , but on the con- trary-will increase the bodily resist- ance so that , colds will be much less likely to : occur. Those who accustom themselves to such a regimen grow to enjoy it very much ahd would not give it up for anything, for it gives them a feeling of strength and exhilaration that is unknown to those who contin- ually hamper themselves with heavy clothing and hot water. , Dr. Vcstch Is Terr snxlom to help all to Vlrorons H-alth. Writs hiin cire this newspaper. Vigorous Health T^lERP, Is prububly nothing more * dange rous on a highway ut night than an automlblle with only one light; and invurlahly the lli*ht Is on . thu ri ght side of the ear. Of course j the law requires that two lights be displayed on , the front of every auto- mobile , but it Is impossible to enfo rce such a law without officer). There are always- those willing to tiike a chance driving machines with only one light , and few of these ever atop to con- sider that they are endangering not only their own lives but tho lives of others in automobiles approaching from the direction in which they are headed. The rond patrol men would not be , sent out to \ nab\ speeders , for it is realized that the speeding automobile , when properly handled , often is the least dangerous type on the roads. But those who drive wilh only one light , pass other cars on curves and when approaching the high points of grades and generally fail to conduct themselves ' in such n manner that ' others are not placed in jeopardy : would' be \ prey for the patrolmen. We believe that , establishment of such a force would go a long way toward cutting, down the death list from auto- mobile accidents— a list which is as- . - Burning tremendous proportions in New York—News , Bridgeliampton. \ONE-EYED\ AUTOMOBILES Editor ' s notei Tho following reprints from various Long Is* land newspapers , some of which appear in nearly every Issue of The Patchogue Advance , are chosen to give an idea of the va- riety of subjects considered by the Island editors , and their points of view.
