dav in the summer. the residents of the
town enjoy cooling and eXhilarating
winds from the ocean and bay. Ac-
cording to persons identified with the
building development of the village.
there are about twenty-five dwelling
houses now under construction within
the borders Of the village, and many
other such structures are being erected
Just outside. The majority of houses
are built TO meet the demands of city
workers seeking a home in this part
of Long Island. At the present time
the business centre of the town is
being enlarged by the erection Of
substantial and artistic two story
brick building. in which are to be
housed the village clerk and police
headquarters. This structure Is going
up at Merrick Road and Church Street,
and will contain from six to seven
stores. 1t will be notable addition
to the shopping centre of the town.
Experts acquainted with realty in the
town say that the prevailing price for
property in the trade centres is about
$500 a running foot. Some properties
could possibly be bought at about $500
foot. On Ocean Avenue home sites
bring about $50 front foot. so a plot
with a frontage of 100 feet on the

falling off Of about $4,000. This fall
ing off is due 70 the enforcement Of the
occupancy sections OF the labor laws.
1t is safe to assume that further re-
duction will result through the con-
tinuation of the work of the indus
trial commission in enforcing the pro-
visions of the labor laws.
in the tables furnished to you BY
the State Labor Department the term
factory is used in conformity with the
definition in the labor laws. No dis
tinction is made between employees
working in a purely industrial, or
wholesale workshop and between those
employed in places where the product
of the shop are sold at retail on the
premises. Dressmakers, tallOrs, Jew
ellers. milliners. furrierS and so on are
Jumped with garment, underwear and
other industrial concerns. So are the
department stores and mems and wom-
ems clothing stores which make and
alter goods for the individual customer

spicuous example | will cite the block
bounded by 34th and 35th SITS. and
Fifth and Madison avs. The whole
block is occupied by b. Altman d Co.
surely not an industrial concern yet
627 of their employees are carried as
factory employees OF course, techni-
cally this is correct. but in order to
give true analysis of the statistics |
have separated per block the employees
working in "A retail establishment from
those working in factories or indus
trial concerns
An analysis of the figures shows a
clear line of demarcation between the
blocks where manufacturing on whole
sale lines is conducted and those where
retailers. such as miiliners. dreSsmak-
ers, perfumers, etc, make up their own
products.
In the section from nth to 25th ST.,
between Fifth and Sixth avs, there are
1901 employees in factories selling at
wholesale and 1875 in factories that
retail their own products. In the same
streets. between Fifth av. and Broad
way, there are 1881 in factories sell
ing at wholesale and lbs at retail.
Between 26th and 32d SITS, from Fifth
av. 70 Broadway, there are 2.470 per-
sons in wholesale factories and l,515 in
the smaller Industries.
In 33d to 42d st., between Fifth and
Sixth avs, the figures show a decided
change in conditions, those employed
in factories that retail on the prem
Ises. such as milliners and dresSmakers

Elks, No. 1858, has a very fine home in
the heart of the town.
"When the St. Vincent de Paul So
ciety wanted a summer home where a

spent by children of parents who were
too poor to send their little ones to the

II purchased the Woodclcft Inn prop
erty, in the southern part Of the town.
This is a pretty good testimonial as 10
what the heads Of that great benevolent
organization think about the health
fulneSs Of the town. The hundreds Of
children who come here each year from
the crowded pavements Of the city are
sent back to their parents with their
