Putnam’s new General Motors fire truck was given a tryout run about the city Saturday atternoon by Chief C. D. Arnold and members of the city council.

Quiet Before Election. ‘The annual town election comes td>- day, With voting at the municipal bullding on Church street. The pre- election period this year has been ex- deedingly quiet: in fact, election day has arrived without there having been little’ more than passing comment on the nearness of its approach. There are few things on the town tickets to start contests, it is sald, and the chief interest in the day’s doings will be rel- ative to the outcome of the voting on the license question. No-license ad- dresses were made Sunday morning at the Congregational church and at the Baptist church in the evening. . LICENSE SUSPENDED. Automobile Department De- Fazli of Right to Run State prives Ali Ca: Captain Joseph A. Ryan of the po- lice department received motice from the state automobile department ot Hartford that the drivers license nf All Fasii of North Grosvenordale has been suspended.

E L. F. Battey has completed ths enumeration of children of school age —4 to 16 years—in the town of Put- nam. The total shown by his report is 1,717, an increase of 38 over the number’ enumerated ldst year, or a gain of slightly over 2 per cent. This means that Putnam will get this year a slight increase -in the amount al- lowed from "the state for the suppori of the public achools of the town. WOULD EQUIP A BAND AND PROVIDE RECREATION. Appeal Comes from Leaders of Quotas to Camp Devens from This District. From this district’s boys who are at Camp Devens the following appeal has come to the exemption board fer this district, and it ls made public in the young men’s intesest: Headquarters Depot Brigade. Camp Devens, Ayer, Mass., Sept. 27, 1917. Local Board, Division No. 16, Putnam, Conn. Gentlemen:— There are 48 members from Division No. 16, Windham county, now in the depot brigade. This brigade s made up of eight battalions, whose duty it is to organize men for training to the highest point of efficiency, so that, whenever needed, men may be eup- plied from this brigade to either tha 26th or 76th divisions. Although the personnel of the brigade changes, so do all .brigades, once the fighting be- gins, still the men from Local Division No. 16 for Windham county will in the future continue to come to the same place that we men now fill. Owing to the fact that this brigad is not made up of regiments, the wi department does not furnish us with a band, nor lave we any fund for recreations and amusements, in ite of the fact that we will have 19,0w0 men in the brigade. Our officers are bending every effort to make _the brigade the pride of the army. Thev are planning for football, basebafl, soccer, basketball, boxing, wrestii: etc., to build up the physique an spirit of the men; also a band and a| fife and drum co fo} military pur- poses, parades and pleasure. All of this is especially heipful during this period of changing from civil to mili- tary life. We men were selected to lead the quotas from the various towns and cities and are sending a letter simila- to this back to the patriotle ofLizens at home, asking them to help us se- cure the necessary equipment for th> recreations we have mentioned. Will you gend any money that you can raise in any way to Major Allan M. Pope, adjutant, depot brigade? He will buy the necessary equip- ment at the lowest prices for us, and will send you anotification when this is done, in acknowledgment.
