NORWICH BULLETIN, MONDAY, DECEMB fus. ER 31, 1917 DANIELSON AND DANIELSCN Thrift Stamps May Be Sold in Stores —Dog Warden Corrals Fourteen Stray Animals—Classification Cards Sent Out—Rev. E. A. Legg Resigns as Pastor of Methodist Church— Quarterly Conference Tuesday Evening. Rev. James H. George, Jr. of Co- Sumbta, Mo., was a visitor with friends Bere. He is leaving for France to do Y. M C. A. work. ‘A number of watch night parties are planned for this evening. James C. Harrow of Hartford visit- ed with friends here over Sunday. Stores to Seil Thrift Stamps. Thrift stamps are to be placed on sale in a number of stores in Daniel- mon if plans now being considered are put into effect. The work of filling the icehouses at Quinebaug Jake is well advanced. The Ice being heused is heavy and of eplen- did quality. Working for Government. Cloth for government observation Balloons, cloth for aeroplane wings and silk cloth for powder bags, for use in the army and navy, are among the products that plants in Windham county are now engaged in making, in just what plants may not be told. CORRALS FOURTEEN DOGS. ‘Warden Find-_V olators of State Or- der in Attawaugan. In the roundup that has been under way during the past few days, Dog Warden Michael H. Grimshaw of At- tawaugan has captured 14 dogs that were not being kept confined in ac- cordance with an order issued a few weeks ago or were otherwise made subjects for capture and imprison- ment. Tt is probable that theee dogs will now be required to offer their lives as-a eacrifice to science—or barbarism, as one will—for they are to be crated and sent to New Haven, where, it is understood, the effects of a gas that may be used by United States forces in France against another animal—the Beche—will be tried upon them. Allowing dogs to go unconfined will not be a good practice to follow in the town of Killingly hereafter. The order made by the commissioner of domestic animals is to be enforced. CLASSIFICATION CARDS ived by Scores of “Selected Men from Exemption Board. Rec: Scores of men here have received from the local exemption board their cards announcing their classifications 2nd very few is the number dissent- ing from the decisions of the board. The good .record of the district will not be materially marred by the foct thet it possesses a small group of eowardly slackers who would apply for classification even as beinz moral- jy-unfit to escape doing their duty to sheir country, knowing full well that in so escaping they are doing no less than asking that some other mothers’ sons take their places in Uncle Sam's fiekting Qines—to protect them and theirs. > DAY WAS A WHIPPER. | : i And Members of the We-Love-Winter ! Club Made Remarks About the! Weather. The members of the We-Love-Win ter club held their annual field meetin, Saturday—in a steam-heated 1 where the thermometers were ma Ing 80 degrees. Resolutions were passed condemning the shoriage of ccal and the high prices of woolen garments. An appropriation was made authorizing the purchase of tons of anti-freeze fiuid and a disc sién held over a plan for the installa- | tion of an i plant to be op- erated in D: on during the sum- mer months, to do away with the ne- cessity of men being out in the cold harvesting ice while the temperature ¥anges around zero. The following and ordered writ lution was passed n into the records: Wrereas. We, the members of the We-Love-Winter club, assembled in annual session, are pronounced lovers of winter weather: and, Whereas, Winter cannot be enjoyed in the summer time, we, the members of _this lovers-of-ice-and-snow-and- cold-organization do hereby wish to &0 on record as protesting to all own- ers of flats and other steam-heated buildings against the intolerable con- dition of being obliged to live and Bbor fn chilly rooms and public buildings as a menace to health and safety. and that we . wish further to record ourselves as being unalterably opposed to living conditions during the “winter period that oblige us to suffer from the cold, when heretofore We have been in the habit of enjoying the rizors of winter in comfort in well heated rooms, where we might study with concentrated care the rea- sons why so many people abhor the winter period and the alleged discom- térts that it brings upon them in the YMPTOMS OF HER DISEASE D) cine was Taken.

PUTNAM NEWS PUTNAM Twenty-Two Below Zero, But No Matter, the Ice Crop’s Safe—Red Cross Campaign to Be Launched New Year's Day—Thompson Man Committed to Norwich State Hos- pital—Supt. John Skedgell Leaves Grovsenordale Mills. Brr-rr-rr-rrm! Real winter! Put- nam seems to have been refound, the mercury dropping out of the bottom of the thermometer tube and there was little improvement as the day wore on, the mercury at no time ris- ing to the zero mark. “My milk man said that it was below at 6.30,” was one wo‘an's re- port of weather conéitions in _the Providence Street section. At Bos- worth's store on Elm street 12 de- grees below was recorded at 7 a. m., and at 5 p. m. the same instrument was showing 11 degrees below zero. In the business section of the city instruments were showing readings of trom 4 to 7 below at § p. m. Saturday night, this after a day of most in- tense and unabating cold. The Arctic blast knocked business into a cocked hat Few ventured out into the stinging cold, even the en- thusiastic coasters finding the sport unattractive_during such weather. The rural mail carriers had a tough experience in covering their trips, al- though they were not bothered by snow drifts, and teamsters and others obliged to be out a great deal com- plained bitterly of tha cold. There is one consolation, however. An ice crop that is heavy and ot good quality and avaijable in quanti- ties sufficient to more than meet all needs. All rules for conserving fuel went by the board in the week end freeze- up. It was a case of burn coal or eze and with that proposition to de- ctde upon freezing was passed up. Address By Editor Johnson. Not Over There, but Here, was the subject of an address made at the Congregational church Sungday even- 22 \course of the performance of their duties as out-door workers. During the meeting Danielson was “enjoying” the “finest” winter weath- er of the season, a day that the East- port, Me., peopie call a whipper, and during which the thermometer stead- fly declined to rise above the zero mark. It was really a most appro- priate occasion for the annual meet- ing of thé 'We-Love-Winter club, which exists unofficially, if not other- wise. REV. A. LEGG RESIGNS.

To Be Launched New Years Day— Plan To Securee Weekly Pledges of $1.00. ‘Beginning tomorrow, the first of the vear, a new campaign in the interest of the Red Cross will be launched in th! city. Some time since a number of the prominent residents of the city, a to- tal of 24, pledged themselves to con- tribute one dollar a week to the treas- ury of the local chapter. These 24 men, and their number may De increased to about 20, sre to start out on a campaign to get as many pledzes as possible of a dol- lar a week for Red Cross work. The 24 and those who join them will have a list of about 285 names of Putnam reople whom, it is felt are financially able to pledge themseives to give a dollar or at least 50 cents a wee¥ and and the members cf the committee will canvass the persons whose names appear on the list and endeavor to se- ('gre pledges for the work mention- ed.
