18th Annual Parade and Patriotic Exercises which was sponsored
by the Poi nt Lookout-Lido Fire Department wer2 under the direction of
Chief Fran k Boise.
We were fortunate this year in
having a contingent of men from
Battery "C" of the 505th A.A.A. from
the guided missile base at Lido to
parade with us and it certainly added
a lot of color to the parade.
Our Patriotic Exercises were held at
the entrance to the Beach in Point
Lookout.. J tJ.lr.es Jl/.cCarlhy, President
of the Point Lookout Civic Association,
served as Master of Ceremonies.
The Invocation was delivered by
Rabbi Solomon Goldfarb, which was
followed by two short addresses, one
by Reverend Alan Hundevad and the
other by Councilman Desmond Drlschell. The exercises were closed by
Reverend J ohn Fagan who gave the
Benediction. The music was provided
by the Naval Militia Band under the
direction of Dr. William Scharsmith.
At the conclusion of the Exercises
ice cream and soda were then served
to all the children who were present.
Congratulations are In order to all
the men of the Department who in
anyway helped to make this affalr
a success.

LONG BEACH BRIDGE
The second half of the new Long
Beach bridge will open this week. The
easternmost span of this $5,000,000 pro_
ject opened to traffic last year. The
Identical spans are 820 feet In length,
and wUJ provide a twenty nine foot
vertical clearance compared with the
old bridge's eighteen.
This will reduce the opening of the
bridge some 90~ :, and may be opened
as few as 200 times. This Is certainly
good news to drivers" especially those
trying to make trains at Island Park.
This Is the 103rd consecutive

" OUR TALENTS"
ALL LIFE IS A TALENT, of which
we a re stewards. In baptism we were
given by our parents to God, to be
members of His family, and were
received back as cntrusted by Him to
their care. So it must be with ou r
children; with our husbands or our
wives: with our friendships. They
arc not our private possessions.
How much better personal relationships would be If we thought of all
people as entrusted to our care as
friends or fellow workers or neighbors,
but each belonging to God. In the
Holy Communion we renew our sense
of stewardship as the Church offers
itself and all Its members to God. We
are weak and Imperfect, but we receive ourselves back again, strengthened and ref reshed by Christ's presence,
Against this background, I would
speak of the pledgC6 which we will be
giving to our Church for Its support.
Wc are not j ust ra ising money for an
Institution. We are joining in a
spiritual act, expressing our recognition of our stewardship.
The money we give is given to God
to make His house beautiful for His
worship, to teach His children about
Him, to serve those who arc discouraged or perplexed, to sanctify birth,
marriage, and death, to provide guidance and Inspiration for all who attend our worship and the various
or ganizations on weekdays, and to
help spread the Kingdom of God
throughout the World ,
This is not, In our Church, referred to as a "collection." It Is an
"offering." How much do you give
back to God of what He has entrusted
to you?
The Revrend Henry Ward Beecher
was once asked the question, " What
Is givi ng with simplicity?" and answered, '·Why, it is giving just as it
gi ving was so natural that when a
man gave he did not. think of cha.ngIng his COUt1tenance, his marmer, or
his air at. all; but did It quietly,
easily, beautifully,"
Sincerely,
Re"erend Alan Hundevad

DID YOU PRAY?
Did you think of me this morning
As you breathed a word of prayer?
Did you ask for strength to help me
All my heavi burdens bear?
Did you speak of faith and courage
For Un trials I must meet?
Did you ask that God might keep me
As you bowed before His feet?
Someone prayed , and strength
was given
For the long and weary road,
Someone prayed, and faith grew
stronger
As I bent beneath the load,
Someone prayed, the way grew
brightel",
And I walked all una frald ,
In my heart a song of gladness
Tell me, was It you who prayed?

were at the hearing in Hempstead
when the matter of opening a day
camp for children at the Malibu Club
came up. It was brought out that
the Malibu had been allowing persons
other than Club members to use the
Club, thus making it open to the
public. The representative of the
Mallbu tried to d~ny this but Mr.
Nexsen submitted press clippings ad·
veri!sing the Club facilitie s for the use
of "weddings. bar mitzvah etc" to the
Town Board.

Simulta neously with the p ublkatlon
of the advertlsem~nt requesting sub·
misSion of bids for the construction of
the new fire house, the Board of Fire
Commissioners learned of the desire
of the Board of Educat ion to extend
their p resent holdings at Lido through
the acquisition of an additional ten
acres and which would include the
piot presently owned by t he Fire
District. The recent survey of the
School situat ion made by th e New
York University Group has Indicated
th~ necessity for an additional Kin ·
dergarten through Sixth Grade School.
In an effort to cooperate, the Board
of Commissioners have granted time
to the School Board to attem.pt to
work out an arrangement whereby the
plot for the Fire House could be moved
to the East. Opposition to this. plan
has been expressed by the Board of
Governors of the Lido Beach Civic
Association and at the present writing
the School Board plans to present Its
views to the meeting of the entire
Membership of t he Association at the
July meeting.
In the meantime two brancl new
pieces of equ ipment remain housed in
the Fire House formerly used by the
Navy. Bids received by the Commissioners were returned unopened in
view of the possible change of site.
Let us hope t hat a solution satis·
factory to all can b~ worked out. soon.
There has been altogether too much
delay.

SEASIDE COUNCIL OF
CHURCH WOMEN
The Seaside Council of Churches,
which is comprised of the Peoples and
Saint J ames Episcopal Chu rches of
Long Beach, the Methodist Church of
Island Park and the Point Lookout
Community Church, met on May 2nd
for World Fellowship Day at the Island Park Methodist Church.
After a beautiful service In the
Sanctuary, the ladies went to the Recreation Room which was beautifully
deco rated with flowers and candles
on each table, where they were 6erved
a delicious luncheon by their hostesses.
The ladles then proceded with their
annual business meeting, which consisted among other thing of the election of officers for the ensuing year.
The following slate was elected: Mrs.
Carolyn Gates, of Lido Beach, President; Mrs. Rita Spahr, of Point Look_
out, Vice President; Mrs. Eleanor
Switters, of Long Beach, Treasurer;
Mrs. Mary Sharpe, of Long Beach,
Recording Secretary; and Miss Robina
Rooney, of Island Park, Corresponding Secretary. In the absence of the
President, who was vacationing in
Florida, Mrs. Ethel White, Past President of the Council, presided.
'Norld Community Day, which wi!! be
held the first Friday In November,
will be held at the People's Church.
World Day of Prayer, which Is held
the first Friday in February, will be
held at the Saint James Episcopal
Church. May Fellowship Day, which
TilE COMI\1UNITY OUTLOOK _
Is held the first Friday in May, will
be held at the Point Lookout Community Church.
The Saint James Episcopal Church
will hold Its annual bazaar on November 9th and 10th. The Island Park
Methodist Church will have Its Country Fair on November 17th (Miss
Rooney, Chairman). The Point Lookout Community Church will hold Its
annual Fair this August 10th and 11th.
We hear with regret that at the
Methodist Conference it was decided
to move the Reverend and Mrs. Baudendistel and their little girl from the
church at Island Park to the Union
Dane Church, just outside of Hempstead. Reverend Lester A. Auman,
District Superintendent, residing in
Rockville Centre, came to the meeting
of the Board of Trustees, and so informed Mr. and Mrs. Baudendistel and
his flock that such was the case.
During the process of moving the
family was increased by the addition
of a small son on May 24th.
Mr. Baudendistel was replaced by
~he Rever~nd C. Gladstone Bell, who
has had twenty years service In the
ministry. Mrs. Bell, a trained nurse,
has an apartment in Hempstead. Good
wishes to Reverend Bell in his new
station. Also, best wishes and good
luc!~ to Ml'. end M:·s. Baudendistel
and their two children In their new
home. May that wonderful and deserving young couple have a rich and
fruitful future. They will not be forgotten by their many friends in this
area.
