" In the Mohican tonjruc "Antique " meant beaver. Glen Cove was known as "Mos- quito Cove, " not from mosquitoes, but in tnuian uiaiects , ".tioscnet-o meant grassy plan , subject to overflow.

Sagshnnnck , was the " place of the Ground Nut, " Indian name for starchy tuhers held in the simple economy of the natives. Ketchaponack (Wcsthampton ) was the Place of the larger roots ," (which may have been the yellow water lily.) Sabonac (Mastic) -was a large ground nut place—sometimes called Indian potatoes. Mount Sinai—"Old Man' s , " from the fact that an old man, kept a small inn. Canoe Place?—Where Indians walked w ith canoes from Shinnecock Bay to Peconic Bay. In the early days, John Ogden is said to have built "the only house in the wilderness between Riverhead and Southampton. " An an- cient landmark was former Canoe Place Inn , an old hostelry established in 1735 by Jeremiah Culver, and fre- quented by British soldiers in days of the Revolutionary War; while nearby are the ruins of the old fort.

" Eastport was once called Seatuck and Waterville. Orient was Poquntuck and Oyster Ponds. There was a fort on the point in Revolutionary days. The Indian name for Cold Spring Harbor was "Nachaquatuck, " and the name of the harbor , "Wauwepex. " At the old tannery most of the drum- heads used by the patriots in the Revolutionary War were tanned . Manorville received its name from being included in the patent of the Manor of St. George in ISfll. "Hardscrabble" was the early name of Farminsrdale. Middleville , between Northport and Comt.1P.ck , WS? formerl " rlict.i n~iiicri-H hy the finguliir name of "Bread nnd t 'ln e . - • ¦< • Hollow. " Water Mill received its namo from oldc. -vl mill on Lont* Island , erected in 11)44. at the head of Mill Creek. "Occabauvk" was w.rly t.pelliui' ,.f Aquebogue. A remarkable nrchaoo- ¦ >i;ical discovery wax made here in ISiti nnd judging from geoiucical liunges , remains may have been de- ix.Mted thousands of years before and indicate a more powerful race thin Indian- * . There were also fragment. - - of n templo made of clay. The In- dians may have wiped out n still ear- lier race who once oviu-d the sail. The entire district er.i!'raced i'i Good Ground and Pon Quogue was u part of "Lower division nf Qu.iuut purchase , laid out in 17" .*. l' on Quogue is n corruption nf original name of "PauKamiuaqiianaiituckV At the lower end of the neck, a hi>;n- w.iy was laid out east and west , and another highway north and south from Country mad. A little to lo- west of the middle highway wns a tract of land somewhat better thai , its surroundings and so called "Goo;; Ground. " from which the village de- rived its name , but later changed to Hampton Bays. Prominent among the recent addi- tions to the line of International Har- vester Company of America are dump-trucks models 54-C and 74-C, rated at 2 1-2 and 3 1-2 tons respec- tively. The former ' s capacity is 2 1-2 to 3 . yards and the latter ' a 4 to 6 yards. Both models are equipped with ' 4- cvlindcr engines, four-speed trans- mission and chain drive. In model 74-C. the axle has a two-speed range providing wider choice of power ap- plication. s The steel. ' vadius arm transmitting the torque from rear wheals to frame is easily adjustable, reducing..the liability of neglected chains and danger of undue wear on chains and sprockets , resulting front chains running too tight or too loose. Among the interesting features in- corporated in these models are re- movable cylinders ; worm-and-wheel steering gear , with the post carrying the wheel at a 30-degree a ngle and connecting shaft vertical to give maximum foot clearance ; auxiliary rear springs ce'led into action when the load reaches a certain amount and providing additional cushioning effect for heavier loads. Add 2V_ and 3V _ Ton Truck To Cars of Internationa] Harvester Company Line Announcement was made today by the jury of awards of the Sesqui- centenninl Exposition first "Eight O' - clock" brand coffee was awarded the g-old medal, More than forty million pounds of tlii-; coffee is consumed every y?ar. At the local offices of the Great At- lantic & Pacific Tea Co. it was stated that this brand of coffee is a product of Brazil and recognized as the hifrh- es.t quality Santos toffee imported in- to this country. Incidentally, "Eight O'ClocU" cof- fee is n noptilar priced coffee selling ten to fifteen cents a pound under many brands of package coffees . In making the award , the jurv annoannrd that it was given on the jj asis of the fineness of. this coffee ' s quality. Many of the leading package coffees of the country were exhibited in competition at the ,Scsquicentcnnial and the gold medal award , therefore , represent:? -i signal honor as it was given to a brand that is very inexpensive. Brazil produces more than 70'; of the world' s coffee. Numerous grades arc imported from Bra.il but the* tinest I N that grown in S«o Paulo eml : is popularly known as Kantos. Prae- ticilly nil of the most expensive mf- fee* have Santus us their base. It i; an exceptional coffee for blendiiig j purposes beet.use of its abundant ' rtavor , body and rich aroma. A. A- V "8 O'CLOCK" COFFEE WINS GOLD MEDAL AT SESQL'I By Frank E. Watts (Chief Engineer , Hupp Moto r Car Corporation) '' .Perfectly Balanced Crankshaft" is an oft repeated phrase in automo- bile advertising. "What does it mean?" asks the reader. "Is is im- portant?" 'he -also ask? , and "Haw is it done?" The crankshaft and flywheel are the heaviest rotating parts of a car. If they are not perfectl y balanced it is easy to see that vibration will re- sult , and since the tendency to vibrate increases as the square of the speed it is important to secure perfect bal- ance to have a smooth running engine at high speed. It is comparatively easy to secure an ahnosit perfect batance in the fly- wheel because its iorm is simple and if the balance is not right when first tested after .machirig the correction is a simple matter. Wif'h a crankshaft such as in the Hapmobile Straight Eight it is not so simple a matter because the crank- shaft , extends the whole length of the engine, having eight separate crank pins located on four differen t sides of r.hA -shaft, and at eiirhf. different nointfc almitf its Ivng th. The old way of balancing a rotat- ing part was tn let it rest on level "\v;iy. 'i " tn sec if it « nulil roll i venly or if tht re was one point thai vviiuld always conic up. If th:- latter was the condition metal would be Kni'iyed lruin the lower ride till even lulling was secured . Th' result* in What is . ' .no.v u as " static balance. " Bui a:i object as irregular in form *!: • n •-' .iliiple cj-'inder engine crank- shaft may be in perfect static balance and still cause vibration when rotat- ing at hij *!i Ken-id. This is b?cause there may he a heavy point at one end ot the crankaliaft counterbal- anced by another heavy point in th? cei.ter or even at the opposite end. The shaft will then roll perfectly on the ways but when routing at high speed will te nd to bend outward at each of these, heavy points an. -i will set up a vibration in the whole en- gine that can be noticeably disagree- able to the occupants of the car. Every Hupmol ' ie crankshaft is not tnly put in static balance but is fur- ther tccted at high speed in a very delicate machine that shows up any tendency to vibrate at high spied N' ot only dors it show any def jet ir what h known ns "dynamic balance " but it i. < provided with an ingetiiouf counter balancing device which can be set to neutralize the U.ck of bgl ance somewhat as you set the weight on a beam scale to counterbalance an article being weighed. This shows just where and how much me til ¦ should be removed to bring the crank- shaft to perfect dynamic balance. When the indicated corrrcHon ha* be -n made, the crankshaft is again tested at high speed and it nvuM show perfect dynamic balanct; on an extremely del: .ate dial indicator within very cli.se tolerances, just as the diameter and roundness of the bearings must be accurate within .0005 inch , in order to pass inspection- . The crankshaft is subjected to lab- oratory tests for hardness and tough- ness, it is also givi-n in_ny different inspection tests with micrometers, ii' .^i ir.JJ.ators and special sauces of gr^at accuracy. All crank-shafts ar» he? t treated to show a minimum elas- tic limit of 70 .CO0 pounds per square ini-h. Hupp Engineer Explains Crankshaft Balancing Babylon , because of population in- creases since the electrification of the Montauk railroad division to that point , is to hacte a new vost office building at the corner of Montauk hi ghway and Carll avenue. Cad-man H. Frederick , who pur- chased tha Montauk Ih tghway site re- cently, announced that he will con- struct the new 'pastoftke building immediately, and that the new build- ing- , when completed, would be one of the fin-ast hrick and limestone post office buildings on Lonj* Island. The site of .the new postofiiee huilding is a few blocks west of Deer Park ave- nue at Merrick road. The United States Government has leased tte new building for tho pur- poses of a postofflce for a period of ten years. Mr. Frederick was the purchaser, about eighteen months ;i[;o , of the 1, 000-acre estate of the late August Belmont , whure the -Long Island State Park Commission pu rchased 301) acres for the Belmont Lake State Park. BABYLON TO CONSTRUCT POST OFFICE ON MONTAUK HIGHWAY MIDDLE ISLAND The Ladies' Aid society met at the home of Mrs. Bertram. Still on Wed- nesday of this week. Fire broke out in the woods north of here Friday noon , last week and burned, off considerable of the woods on the tract known as "Sunshine Farms. " Workmen are clearing a section which is said to be for a Jew- ish cemetery. M rs. Etanald Ferguson '? brother , Loring Fullerton and his grand- father , Badger , spent a few days at "Rainbow Esnch" last week. Guy Du Val and Miss Maud Bart- lett were at the Bartlett homestead over the week-end. Mr. Krube and his family are tem- porarily domiciled in the home of Mrs. Kendrick. Rev. J. R. Vaughn visited an eye specialist in the city last week and has found some relief from the threatened ailment. Immediate building prospects in Canada are at higher levels today than ever before in the history of the Dominion , according to the building permit records made public by the Department of Trade- and Commerce. Permits issued in the 63 principal cities during the first quarter of the year were $24 , 849, 278, a gain ove r the same period in 1926 of 10.5 per cent. This is in contrast with a loss for the quarter of 5 per cent, in the principal cities of the United States, according to the reports of S. W. Straus & Co. The 63 Canadian cities gained 9.5 per cent, in March compared over the same month of 1926. The March 1927 total of $11 , 841, 427 established a new high record for that menth . About 50 per cent, of the value of permits issued were for dwellings. Among the provinces , Ontario continued to outstrip all its rivals with a 37.6' per cent, gain over March of a year ago- , Building costs as shown by the Bu- reau of Statistics index number of wholesale prices of building mater- ials dropped in March to the lowest level touched in any yea r of record. It was 147. 3 compared with 208.1 in March , 1920. BUILDING PROSPECTS IN CANADA HIGHEST EVER Dr. William H. Ross has accepted an invitation to speak at the spring meeting of the Long Island Chamber of Commerce at the Riverhead Coun- try club on Friday, May C.

Prominent among the recent addi-tions to the line of International Har-vester Company of America aredump-trucks models 54-C and 74-C,rated at 2 1-2 and 3 1-2 tons respec-tively. The former's capacity is 2 1-2to 3. yards and the latter 'a 4 to 6yards.
Both models are equipped with ' 4-cvlindcr engines, four-speed trans-mission and chain drive. In model74-C. the axle has a two-speed rangeproviding wider choice of power ap-plication. s The steel. ' vadius armtransmitting the torque from rearwheals to frame is easily adjustable,reducing..the liability of neglectedchains and danger of undue wear onchains and sprockets, resulting frontchains running too tight or too loose.
Among the interesting features in-corporated in these models are re-movable cylinders ; worm-and-wheelsteering gear, with the post carryingthe wheel at a 30-degree angle andconnecting shaft vertical to givemaximum foot clearance ; auxiliaryrear springs ce'led into action whenthe load reaches a certain amount andproviding additional cushioning effectfor heavier loads.

''.Perfectly Balanced Crankshaft"is an oft repeated phrase in automo-bile advertising. "What does itmean?" asks the reader. "Is is im-portant?" 'he -also ask? , and "Hawis it done?"
The crankshaft and flywheel arethe heaviest rotating parts of a car.If they are not perfectl y balanced itis easy to see that vibration will re-sult , and since the tendency to vibrateincreases as the square of the speedit is important to secure perfect bal-ance to have a smooth running engineat high speed.
It is comparatively easy to securean ahnosit perfect batance in the fly-wheel because its iorm is simple andif the balance is not right when firsttested after .machirig the correctionis a simple matter.
Wif'h a crankshaft such as in theHapmobile Straight Eight it is not sosimple a matter because the crank-shaft, extends the whole length of theengine, having eight separate crankpins located on four differen t sides ofr.hA -shaft, and at eiirhf. different nointfc
almitf its Ivng th.The old way of balancing a rotat-
ing part was tn let it rest on level"\v ;iy .'i" tn sec if it « nulil roll i venlyor if tht re was one point thai vviiuldalways conic up. If th :- latter was thecondition metal would be Kni 'iyedlruin the lower ride till even lull ingwas secured . Th' result* in What is.'.no.v u as "static balance."
Bui a:i obj ect as irregular in form*!:• n •-'.iliiple cj-'inder engine crank-shaft may be in perfect static balanceand sti l l cause vibration when rotat-ing at hi j *!i Ken-id. This is b?causethere may he a heavy point at oneend ot the crankaliaft counterbal-anced by another heavy point in th?cei.ter or even at the opposite end.The shaft will then roll perfectly onthe ways but when routing at highspeed will te nd to bend outward ateach of these, heavy points an.-i willset up a vibration in the whole en-gine that can be noticeably disagree-able to the occupants of the car.
Every Hupmol 'ie crankshaft is nott n l y put in static balance but is fur-ther tccted at high speed in a verydelicate machine that shows up anytendency to vibrate at high spiedN'ot only dors it show any def j et irwhat h known ns "dynamic balance"but it i.< provided with an ingetiioufcounter balancing device which canbe set to neutralize the U.ck of bglance somewhat as you set the weighton a beam scale to counterbalance anarticle being weighed. This showsjust where and how much me til¦should be removed to bring the crank-shaft to perfect dynamic balance.
When the indicated corrrcHon ha*be -n made, the crankshaft is againtested at high speed and it nvuMshow perfect dynamic balanct; on anextremely del: .ate d i a l indicatorwithin very cli.se tolerances, just asthe diameter and roundness of thebearings must be accurate within.0005 inch , in order to pass inspection-.
The crankshaft is subjected to lab-oratory tests for hardness and tough-ness, it is also givi-n in_ny differentinspection tests with micrometers,ii'.^i ir.JJ.ators and special sauces ofgr^at accuracy. All crank-shafts ar»he?t treated to show a minimum elas-tic limit of 70.CO0 pounds per squareini-h.
