ment on the article in The Republi-

readers were heard from, all ad
ding OF subtracting from the article.
To us it was splendid one, and re.
minded US that Deer Park was not
the only place where there were celeb
rites entertained. The Oakland Ho-
tel had a good share and the old Loeb
Lynn Hotel wasn't just what you
would call a country hostelry.
