Delightful as is much of the scenery
along the North Hampstead Turnpike,
motorists making a tour of the island
may find many a pleasant side trip
along the numerous byroads that lead
off at various points to the bays and
headlands on the North Shore. The sur
face of these roads is usually in fair
condition, both on account of the amount
of traffic over them being comparatively
small and because they almost all lead
by private estates and properties. or to
the beautiful summer residences and
clubs for which the North Shore of Long

proaches the town of Oyster Bay and
rejoins the turnpike. This part of Long

Have a Heart!
Bring 1t Back!

To the Automobile Editor comes
the following:
No doubt you remember that
when l was at the Auto Club I was
a bit fearful that my 'hivver' would
be stolen. We'll, last week It was
stolen on Fifth avenue at the corner
of Twenty-seventh street. left the
little animal peacefully browsing at
the curb while went upstairs to
examine some blackboard material to
be put in the Twenty-third street
building of the college, and / was
away but 10 minutes. When returned
my fiivver had been driven off by
stranger. The colored starter told
me that he thought II was funny
that a young. man with straw hat
got in and drove off my car, but he
didn't say anything to him because
he thought l had sent him. What
commendable politeness! l reported
the whole matter to the police and
they are still looking for my lost
car. 1t, of course, cuts me to the
heart to think that after all the kind
treatment l gave II it did not balk
or misfire. or blow out a tire, or In
some other way demonstrate against
the assumption of authority by a
brusque stranger. Certainly 1t should
have come home to Its stall at night.
but 1 suppose there Is no gratitude
In the world, and 1 shall wait long
and In vain, and the police will not
be able to accomplish by brain work
and strategy wha- could not result
naturally from a heart full of affec-
ton and gratitude.
Very sincerely yours,
FREDERICK b. ROBINSON"
