It's calling on friends in town Wednes- intended to conduct the business upon the same plan as do the parties who maintzin a similar pony express ser c~ between Putnam and Danielson that is, by having those who want li- quors fi an order for them. Mr. Johnson had orders covering the goods in his shipment, but they were not properly made out. The making out of these orders accor to the de- tails of the law is a ma%er that re- quires great care. and Mr. Johnson was not using the proper kind of forms, The liquors that were seized were dcstroyed, so this loss must also be added to the sum that Mr. Johnson loses out of his experiment with the game of furnishing drinkables to the residents of no-license towns.- Firemen’s Inspection Soon. The firemen's inspection to be held here within a few days is proving of much interest to the members of the department and plans to have all ap- paratus looking its best, uniforms re- splendent and everything appearing to the credit of the organization. The members of the department will pass in review before the city officials. This inspection will be the first one at which the department will be able to show a piece of motor fire fighting apparatus. In connection with the event the members of the department are arranging for a baseball game, probably to be played with represen- tatives of the Danielson department, and a dance in the evening. The Putnam Country club continues to grow in popularity with its mem- bers. Golf seems to be the leading attraction at the presemt time and it has already won many devotees. Every afternoon numbers of the members find time to make a round of the links. ot all of them are yet able to make scores to boast about, but they are progressing with the difficulties of the ame and find it fully as attractive as if they were professionals. | President of National Educators.
