He started the week on Monday by winding up & romance that had its inception in Pennsylvania | several years ago and through which Miss Laura Schink of Duquesne, Pa. and Oliver G. Ward, who become bride and groom. Mr. Ward is a member of the Echo quartet that opened an engagement at the Bradley theatre Monday afternoon. When he went on for his first show | here his bride of a few hours sat in | the audience and applauded and en- | joyed the crackerjack act as much as any more than any other one of them. Miss Schink, in response to a_tele- | gram to come on and get her Christ- mas present of a husband, made a | hurry trip from Pittsburgh to Boston, | where the man who Is now her hubby | was playing last week. When the charming young lady ar- rived at Boston her husband-to-be met her with the disappointing news that he had discovered that Massa- | chusetts laws require the giving of a | five days' notice of intent to marry, | but informed her he was coming to Putnam Monday and that there would be no difficulty about getting the li- cense quickly—and there wasn't. Town Clerk David Flagg quickly produced the necessary document and shortly afterward Rev. George D. Stanley, at the Methodist parsonage, made the happy pair a Christmas pres- | ent of each other, 1 Mr. and Mrs. Ward were as happy as could be Monday afternoon. At the theatre the Echo quartet outdid themselves, giving one of the flnest | acts seen here in many a long day. The other three men, one of whom is Mr. Ward’s brother, Charles, seemed | to be permeated with the spirit of the day and of th holiday and everything went with a snap that won hearty ap- plause. Many in the audience fretted them- gelves cver the question as to which of the four was the bridegroom and for their benefit it may be announced that it was “the janitor.” The brother is the blackface artist. ’ Mrs. Ward was not overlooked by those who had favors to extend and Monday evening she was a delighted guest at a Christmas social function given at the Methodist church. Mrs. Ward will have the happiness of her husband’s presence until after the holidays, when the Echo quartet go up into Nova Scotia for a stay of five weeks. It's too cold up there for brides, so Mrs. Ward is going back to Pennsylvania to await her husband's return, an event which he says he will be very anxious for. STAFFORD SPRINGS Highwa Commissioner MacDonald—Crow Hill District School to Be Continued— Other Matters. Highway Commissioner MacDonald has promised to take over as state highway the road beginning at the postofiice and extending up East Main and East streets, to connect with the state highway on the Hollow road. This would mean that the state high- way department would be charged with the maintenance of the road. Mix and Selectman Preble had an in- terview with the commissioner a few days ago. He promised to take up the matter of the road to West Stafford soon and said that work would not be- gin on this end, but on the West Staf- ford end and continue toward the Springs as far as the appropriation of | $9.000 would permit. The commission- er would not agree to take over Main street as state highway, as he says this is not a part of the trunk line system. Work on the River road is progress- ing nicely. Anthony Adams, first se- lectman, has been appointed inspector on this job.
