Children Thank Committee.

The improvised children's Sunday choir at the Momaugufn at Cosey Beach have requested that we public ly thank the gentlemen who kindly presented each of them with box of candy last Sunday through the pro- prietor, George T. White. It seems that for several weeks past about six teen young girls and boys, under the Idirectorship of MT. Williams, the pian- ist, have been giving concerts Sunday afternoons on the porch of the Mo mauguin, and their singing has made quite a hit among the guests.
 Last Sunday MT. White received a box of candy for each one of them from some gentleman who gave no name, but expressed himself as one of the admirers of the juvenile choir, and sent it in recognition of his ap- preciation.

tiles is the official finding of Corpora.
tion Counsel Ellison.
The opinion Is a knockout blow for
the Rockaway Beach Taxpayers asso-
citation, which has been shocked by
throngs of pretty young women in alb
breviated bathing skirts walking
through the town, admired by the
men.
Mr. Ellison, in addition to being n
great legal authority. has considerable
admiration for feminine beauty. He
says the police have no business what
ever to Interfere with the shapely
harhers, and intimates If the members
Of the Rocl,away Beach Taxpayers
association don't like the bathers' pa
rade they can look the other way.
First Deputy Police Commissioner
OKeefe OF Brooklyn and then Com
missioner Bingham himself gave up
the problem OF the fair bathers.
In the complaint of the taxpayers,
which was sent to Mr.. Ellison. this
statement was made.
Tine custom of our summer peo-
pie parading through our streets in
their bathing suits is a thing that must
be stopped at once, is the sentiment
of all classes Of citizens. for it is
something awful to see between 5000
and 10000 at once time going through
our streets without any concern"
"The only question" Mr.. Ellison
says. "is whether bathing suit is.
under the circumstances, a crime. If
not the police should not interfere.
They are not the censors of public
morals. and ordinarily person can
dress as he or she pleases. so long
as the attire. worn is not a disguise
or a breach of public decency. To
constitute a crime In such case
there must be criminal intent upon
the part Of the wearer Wearing a
suitable bathing attire in seaside re-
sort, where bathing is almost uni
yersal is not essentially a crime"
