Long Islands Story" by Jacuueline
OVerton. children's librarian at West
bury, Long Island, Is a book written for
the children Of Long Island, but is not
exactly juvenile book. The story be-
gins with the casual landing of the
crew OF the Half Moon on the beach of
what Is now Coney Island, in Septem-
Der. 1909. Before that time Indians, Al
gonquins, occupied the island, but they
ieit no written records. Such names as
Montauk and Amagansett are relics of
the Indian period. Later the Dutch and
the English divided Long Island, the
former settling in the western part and
the latter in the eastern. The progress
of Long Island Is traced through the
Colonial period, the Revolution and the
Civil war, down to the present time.

 The Methodist bishop. ws think. credits the biz metropolitan papers with more influence than they real. ly possesa To show such influence let them begin winning . few elections in their cities of publtcation-some- thing which the best of them long ago have failed to do except at in- tervals and by accident.
 The masses in the biz cities and in many of the smaller cities are wet. not because they read 'the wet side" in tho newspapers. but because they were that way from the start, always will be that way, and no amount of journalistic endeavor could change their attitude.
 It must be confessed that con- eressmsn in Washington, as | rule, are wiser than the bishop on this question. Their record shows that they pay much more attention to the small papers. If they didn't do that they wouldn't be 50 consistently dry.
