Some of them have discarded the ma- chines temporarily and are using horses. May Be Criminal, Though a Teetotaler. There is no accounting for tastes, nor ideas, but it is at least passing strange that some good people of this town are giving expression to the opinion that because a man doesn’t use mtox:caung liquors he should not be required to face a charge of having committed, a statutory crime of the most reprehensible kind. On that basis a man might commit murder, and, perhaps get a decoration for it. Sobriety doesn’t license 2 man to be a criminal. It imposes upon him even greater responsibility for his actions and respect for the law. Won Whist Honors. At the meeting of ‘he Bijou Whist club _honors were won by Mrs. How- ard Withey, Mrs. Joseph Gendron, Mrs, Philip Tetreault, Mrs. Eli Dagenias. Mr. and II‘B.

It is understood that the breaking up of the ice has not caused great worry to ice dealers in this section, as the greater part of the supply need- ed through the current year was safe- 1y housed before the warm spell be- gan.

A teacher, who has been at the state trade school in Bridgeport will come to Putnam to succeed Mr. Packard. Gladys Klark Welcomed Back. Indicative of its popularity here on the strength of the excellence of its presentations ©f the past, the Gladys Klark company was. greeted by un- usually large matinee and by another large audience in the evening at the Bradley theatre Monday.. Monday aft- ernoon and evening the play was Bought and Paid For. It was as splendidly produced at the moderate prices charged as by companies that. have piaved it through this territory at much higher rates and was ap- proving received by the audience. Miss Klark as Virginia Blane was the same appealing stage favorite that she always has been to Putnam audi- ences. Her supporting cast this year is especially strong #n the opinion of many the best with which she has been surrounded. While Monday’s production did not permit of the ap- peararce of all of the members of the company, those who were charged with the presentation set a standard that left no room for doubt as to the ex- cellence of the organization. Richard St. Vrain as Robert Staf- ford, Sam Walcen as James Gilley and Sadie Belgrade as Fanny Blaine .all shared in the appreciation of the au- dience, and as they wholly deserved. ‘The specialty feature of Monday ‘was a nicely done dance number. A $1,000 Visiting Nurse Fund Needed. No definite action has yet been taken for the formation of an associa- tion to support the-work of a visiting nurse in Putnam, but those interest- ed in the matter continue to investi- gate as to,methods of procedure and, it is understocd, there is hope of evenually putting the plan into effect. Many have been found who are en- thusiastic over the plan and members of the Chamber of Commerce have shown marked interest. It has been ascertained that a fund of about $1,- 000 a year is required to carry on the work and, a;means of raising this amount must be found befere the work can be started. H SOUVENIR SETTLED IT. Wrote to Washington and Found That Any Old Buffalo NYckel is 0. K. Arother mylh ‘hfls been explodes that of the counterfeit Buffalo nickel. A story given considerable space in -several newspapers circu- | lating here was to the effect that the city and this part of New England was flooded with “Phony‘ nickels, and corductors and merchants were being stung for great amounts. How. ever. a wise man could easily tell the difference between the good and bad nickels. The point of observation was the mound on which the noble bison took his stand on the face of the coin. On some coins this mound was rounded where the words “five{ cents” were stamped and on others the stand was cut off, with the effect of a straight line, and the five eentnl printed on the "level ground. Sp it was easy to tell a bad coin. Either| the one in which the buffalo was standing on the level was good, and the other bad, or else the first was not on the "level and the raised- mound one not a counterfeit. This led, according to the paper you .r ‘the person with whom you talking. Thare hu been 80 much discus-) sion that Souverir Taylor decided to substitute a little action and-he wrote the following United States treasury department: “Enclosed please find two buffalo nlckels. Will you kindly informe me bz“;he early mail if elther one of t! is counterfeit? Some say one h—-lpm. say- the other.- Hoping to receive prompt reply and the re- turn of ‘he two (2) nickels, I am, Very respectfully yours, “SOUVENIR TAYLOR."

At any rate the profit in nickels, unless made in a big fac- tory, can hardly be great. Inventing coin stories seems to be the favorite indoor sport of idle fishermen.

FAULTS OF ENGLISH EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. Satisfaction’ With Mere Book Knowl- edge and Inattention to Facts. London, Jan. 31.—Neglect of intel- lectnal things, satisfaction with mere book knowledge, inattention to facts, concentration on physical prowess, widespread ignorance of sclence “and consequent contempt for investigation and exper: knowledge are the basic faults of the English educational sys- tem, said Sir Oliver Lodge in his ad- dress before the annual conference of educational associations held in Lon- don. War,*he continued, had opened the eyes of the nation to certain perils which during a los era of peace had been °v"1_'i’.°kfd‘ ar htuzh now made apparent the ingorance of the govern- ing classes. English education led to a widely diffused knowledge. Initia- tive was lacking, and only the personal character and courage of the men— and women—of all classes had saved the country. The %wpl-, as well gs their leaders, were n learning from the enemy. Sir Oliver condemned the education- al ideals of modern Germany as a heavy pedagogical grind and a soul- less preparation for business, in which purely material objects had been ele- vated to the region of worship and sentiment. The old, delightful, senti- mental Germany with its message to the soul of the human race, he said, had been slain. But this did-not jus- tify English failure to teach the ele- mental facts of science and to train students to make the best use of their brains. 'l'he er bhmod the government early in the war to mnkennntthememmtndomd manufacture who had been to offer their services. He put this fail- ure to ignorance, rather than vicious- n-ls. were not called in, be- were not trusted. Only Muflly did the need for their ser- vices loom up before those in charge f \!"‘"‘i‘iii‘ wll 0] 1% uuu\‘l!!:":;s i;;,f!t:':!.::t%""“‘?‘f'f' I ill”llll]ll |""Il|'\”“|!|i gy raelfontheonefigllm-dhgenume of the empire’s destinies. This kind of ignorance was not confined to politi. cians alone, but even to manufactur- ers, who had long refrained from' ull- ing in expert advisers. Forcible feeding in knowledge did not appeal to ‘Sir Oliver who thought the primary change should be in cul- tivating the faculties of observation, the spirit of independent investigation and the habit of going direct to nature for facts. Better u:‘lem.lm: instruction, particularly in logy and hygiene, was thwm necessary. Abil- ity ought to be among the pupils and the brains of the working class boys utilized, as they are not sufficiently now. France had added to her wealth, ac- cording to the speaker, by encourag- ing and honoring agricultural life, and England should do the same. But this was only one way in which science could be used to increase national prosperity. Infant mortality could be greatly re- duced. Sir Oliver concluded, by teach- ing girls hyglene, housekeeping and the care of infants. EVENTS IN FINLAND UNCHECKED BY WAR. Art Exhibitions Are Being Held and Vigorous Work is Shown. Helsingfors, Finland, Jan. 31.—Clv- ilization is marching on in Finland un- checked by war. Three art exhibitions are being held at the same time, and sane. wholegome and vigorous work is shown. But the great event in Finnish socle- ty this winter was the festival in com- memoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the birth of the composer Jean Si- belius, known and admired in the United States, Sibelius is at the height of his prodnctive power in the opinion of Finish music . lovers.
