No better measure Of the distribu-

Much Owed to Pratt.

Charles Pratt, the Standard Oil
millionaire who died ten or fifteen
years ago. probably did more than any
one else to make popular this splen-
did region in northern Nassau county
Some twenty-five or thirty years ago
he bought a large estate at Glen Cove
and spent a great deal of time and
money in identifying and adding to
1t. He was the first really large buy
er OF land In this region. Later some
other rich men, appreciative of the
delights OF country life, on Long
Island, bought other hundreds of
acres. Year after year the colony OF
congenial people OF wealth increased,
but 1t received its greatest impetus
and has had its largest growth since
the motor car became practicable as
a means OF sure and swift locomo-
ton. Indeed. the automobile is the
principal thing that has made this
millionaires' colony possible and has
placed II within easy reach of similar
communities In other parts of the
island. The Pratt estate Is still one
OF the show places of that part OF
Long Island The six sons of Charles
Pratt have built six magnificent coun.
try houses on the great property
that their father bought and have
still further developed its beauties.
