those about Bay Shore. Islip. the Great
Neck and Smithtown sections made a
decidedly gay scene.
In marked contrast to the formal dress
OF the men who formerly took such an
active part In the fox hunting and polo
colonies OF Nassau county was their
appearance to-day In tho uniforms of the
aviation. naval flying and other branches
OF the service. 1t seemed that almost
every one who In the past ever had a

Red Cross. All the funds which in the
past were expended In silver cups and
other trophies were this year given to
the war charity. The winners OF the
various classes were more than happy
