Only a brief period remainé for mak- ing a decision about doing something for the needy of Danielson at Christ- mas time. The Danielson Benevolent society is a fine medium for the trans. action of such charity as one may wish to bestow in the direction in@icated, for it has the organization that has listed those needing Christmas cheer and the means of making the distribu- tion. Jars for receiving money con- tributions are to be found in many stores ahout town and baskets with things for Christmas dinners are to be received at the Congregational vestrv tomorrow (Wednesday). Candidates for Commissionership Busy Some -classic _manoeuvring is now under way in Windham county among the candidates for places as county commissioners and their supporters Stories of trades and desires to trade support that will create a coalition sufficiently strong among the republi- can representatives to land the plums are heard almost daily, but what will come of thése remains to be seen. The near approach of the time when the legislature will convene has stirred up activity to a greater degree than has heretofore been noted. ‘Watch, fitted in a _ranted to wear 20 y.

FRIEND TOOK CASH, Pinched $850 of Stanley Mocick’s Stanl Mocick, unmindful of rain and slush, appeared at the police sta- tion after 5 o’clock Monday_ afternoon and complained to Captain John Mur- ray that a friend of his—and he fur- nished the name--had relieved him of 3850, which was in an envelope containing $10. Mocick told the offi- cer that his friend left a noté saying that he had borrowed the money to meet pressing needs and that he would return it when opportunity offered. This explanation was, apparently, not. at all satisfactory to the man who had | been relieved of his holiday surplus and he was'very anxious that an effort be made to apprehend the thief, who has left town.

Benevolent organizations that intend to do someéthing for the needy of Put- nam have lists of many of the city’s poor and will present them with cheer for the holiday, especially food for dimmers. = Christmas Mail Heavy.

Rey. Mr. Lakin's sérmon wés upon the old but ever new story of the birth ‘of Christ. Some people are too mod- ern to say there is a devil, but he is just as real today as when he tempted our Saviour, and he is a very busy person, but although no one is smart, or strong, or wel] educated enough to deféat him in his own stréngth, Christ is ready to lead all who ask His help to a sure victory. Many will not ae- cept salvation because it is so easy to get-that; no money is required. but if only those who could pay a big price ¢ould have a seat with God they would work to pay the price. In the evening the Christian En- deavor meeting was a Christmas ser- vice, led by George Dawlev. The subjéect was An Unselfish Life, and most of the members present gave some lllustration.
