THE EAST HAMPTON STAR, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3. 193G THREE BRIDGEHAMPTON SOUTHAMPTON N ew s of N e a r - by V illa g es AM AG AN SETT SAG HARBOR \YAINSCOTT MONTAUK Ships Hit Shore In Spite of New Fog Horn Old time mariners at Montauk are pointing out. in somewhat of “we told-you-so” manner, that the new fog horns at Montauk which were installed last year have not eliminated the dead spot so often complained of along by the cliffs at Montauk. Offshore, the horns come through fine, but close un der the beach where there is danger, it is almost impossible to hear them at certain angles. And as proof of this fact you do not have to take the word of the Montauk navigators; you can just refer to the Coast Guard file of wrecks and accidents at Montauk dur ing the last year. First the "Raritan Sun" hit near Church’s cottages; next the Comanche came ashore near the light; then a fine yacht sailing craft last summer, just west of Lathrop Brown's home; and then the Julia G. last.year only a few feet west of this last wreck of the Mary P. Mosquito during the week. A con certed drive is under way at Montauk to ask the Department of Commerce to consider additional ways and means of stopping this dangerous condition. There has been severe property loss during the last year, but it has only been good fortune that has prevented loss of life. The Comanche alone had 65 passengers on board, the Raritan Sun had 10 in crew, the Julia G six in crew, the pleasure craft five, and now the Mary P. Mosquito with 14. Supervisor Perry B. Duryea has been in contact with the Army engineers in the matter of the proposed dredging at Lake Montauk with particular refer ence to the recent rejection by the Dis trict Engineer of this project. Super visor Duryea has arranged for an ap peal to go directly to Washington and has permission to submit such an ap peal before March 1, 1937. The record of the case to date will be furnished the supervisor as a basis for appeal action. Mrs. Theodore Cook is in charge of arrangements for a card party to be held in the basement of the Church of the Little Flower on Thursday evening. December 10th. Cards, both pinochle and bridge will be played, and "Bingo'’ tables will be organized. The party begins at 8:00 p. m. AMAGANSETT [Mrs. F. Norton Grifflng.

Prices are rising, taxes are rising, and still we look forward to 1937 with keener anticipation of happiness than we looked upon 1936. When hope is eternal the works of man cannot dash optimism to earth. For the tenth time in 30 years, the jovial face of Santa Claus appears on the Christmas seal. What could be more appropriate? The greatest gift anyone can receive is health. Christ mas seals help maintain and retain health. Nations and men slow to pay their debts are quick to pay off grudges.
