The matter of the sewer on Walnut street was then taken up. Attorney Thomas J. Kelley, who was acting as corporation counsel in the absence ang sickness of the new corporation coun- sel, gave some vital facts about the sewer on that street. It seems that the corner of Summit and Walnut streets is the highest part of the city of Willimantic, and to build a sewer there would cost a great deal, and the other sewers are not built right to dis- pose of the sewerage around the high place. The meeting after the discussion on the Walnut street sewer adjourned. Fine Skating. There is fine skating at Recreation Park. The ice was scraped with a horse scraper Sunday and then the re- maining snow was swept off Monday 50 that the ice is clean of snow. Short Circuit Causes Blaze. The Engine company was called out {for a slight blaze at 175 Jackson street Monday evening at 10.15.

This campaign is planned for the week be- ginning January 28. The responsibil- ity placed upon the council is to co- ordinate .the activities of all orgaii- zations engaged in furnishing profes- sional entertainment for soldiers and sailors in_cantonments and encamp- ments. One million dollars will be required to finance the work of coor- dination and the operation of the Lib- erty tents, Liberty theatres and au- ditoriums already erected and being provided where soldiers and sailors will be stationed. The Y. M. C. A, the K. of C. and the Y, M. H. A. are not doing this work. Handling a circuit of forty-eight theatres calls for skill- ed management of experienced theatri- cal men. Marc Klaw, of Klaw & Er- langer and H. P. Harrison,: president of one of the foremost Chautauqua systems, have direct charge of this work. Raymond - B, Fosdick, chairman of the Commission on Training Camp Activities, says: “In this war we are driving vicious agencies out of busi- ness and setting up clean entertain- ment in their place. This has a di- rect bearing upen the health of our army and is an absolute necessity in maintaining the morale of our men.” Dr. G. H. Jennings has been ap- pointed campaign director for ‘this town.

Mr. and Mrs. Adams left on a morning train for their wedding trip. They will make their home in Danielson. Conditions Monday. Danielson’s business men were hard- est hit by the first Monday closing order. Practically all business places, excepting those engaged in the sale of foodstuffs and the drug stores, were closed tight. Industrially, however, things taok on new life. The Connecticut mills re- sumed work.in full and the Danielson Cotton company and the Quinebaug company mills had much machinery in operation. In a general way. work about town went on as usval. Much trucking was being done and many men found em- ployment_at trades where the heating problem did not enter in. A thaw and heavy rain would help out the local situation wonderfully. Following _weeks of snapping cold weather, during which the precipita- tion has been far below normal, mil- lions of gallons of water that could now be used to splendid advantage in developing power have been turned into ice, and a vast amount of energy ciings to the watersheds of the Quine- baug and Assawaga rivers in the form of snow and ice. Could this be re- leased and find its way into the rivers and on into the wheel pits of sore big concerns that depend in consider- able degree upon water for power, the fuel shortage hereabouts would not,be so_serious. As things are, mills all along the Quinebaug valley from the Massachu- setts line southward are looking to the river to furnish them as much horse power as possible and the result, on the whole, is not entirely satisfactory. A two-inch rainfall would make a vast difference in the amount of power that could be developed—if it didn't have the dangerous effect of breaking up the ice too rapidly and causing a damag- ing freshet, which may be one of the things being saved up for humanity in this winter of winters. p——r PIG CLUB WORK Being Advocated by County Farm Agent—Iinducements Offered. Tounty Farm Agent Benjamin Ellis urges the production of more pork in ‘Windham county in the following com- munication to the people: ‘So important is pork that Mr. Hoover . states the three most impor- tant things necessary to win the war are swine, ghips and wheat. The out- look for wheat in America is good, and unquestionably there are large supplies in other parts of the world that will be available when the war is over—ships are being rapidly built, but we must have more pork. There is a great shortage of fats and oils in the United States and the food administration has resorted to the hog to suply this. There is no other animal which.can be raised that will turn out the fat as the hog will, and it does this in a short time compared with other animals, Also there is no other farm animal (ex- cept poultry) which returns as much for a dollar invested as does the hog. Many of our food producing men have been called into service, and this means that all available persons left must produce as much as possible. One great means of boosting production is the boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 18. In other states, espe- clally in the southern etates, the boys and girls have done remarkable work in_the growing of pigs. Last year the pig club work was begun in earnest in Connecticut. There were about 550 piss owned and grown by the boys and girls of the state. This was 1 per cent. of all the hogs in Connecticut. The only It was ofien found that the larger, profit than the boye. In one school there was & special contest be- ‘tween the boys and girls, and the girls won out. The average profit made by members in Connecticut was between $10 and §11 per pig, after crediting all waate food from the kitchen and garden, also pasturage and the boys' or girle' time. Of course, the waste products would be wasted anyway, and the boys' time might have been epent in some un- useful way, so the profit really was about $15. It was not uncommon for a profit of $20 to be made, after cred- PUTNAM NEWS 3 PUTNAM How the Order Was Obeyed Monday —German Subjects to be Classified —Francis V. Cloutier Goes to Jail for Forging Order—Last of Ques tionnaires Received—Monday's Clas- sifications. Monday in Putnam proved to be something of a mixture of the varying conditions that obtain on Sundays, le- gal holidays and the routine business day. It wasn't just like any other day that can be recalled. ‘ All the stores excepting those ex- empted obeyed the closing up order. 'This made life very dull and quiet in the business sections of the city. Some of the mills, including the Manhasett, Putnam Worsted and Waterman Wor- sted were running, these doing gov- ernment work, while others were as still as upon the Sabbath. ‘The schools were in session and pas- senger trains were running on thair usual week day schedules. On the cther hand, offices were closed, and, again, the theaters were open. On the whole the combination of activity and lack of activity was very odd and strange. ‘There was a general inclination throughout the city to live up to the quirements of the Garfield order. Saloons quit doing business. Drug stores and grocers and others selling feodstuffs were open, but doing a re- stricted business. The sale of soft drinks was refused at drug store fountains, as was the sale of smokes and other unnecessary things. Stores not exempted from the order ‘were closed tight and in many cases cartains were drawn. German Subjects Must Register. Classification of German subjects, men and women, is to be undertaken in this city by the police department ir: the near future, in accordance with an order that is made general for the whole country. f The German subjects will be re- quired to register, have their finger prints taken and to supply photographs olf 1themaelves for filing by the offi- cials. Rulings Reverse An indication of the action to be taken by the district board in the case of registrants married since May 18 of last year was shown Monday, when some appeal cases from Class 3 classi- fication by the local board came back from Hartford. The district hoard re- versed the ruling of the local board and placed the newly married men whose cases had been considered in Class No. 1. QUESTIONNAIRES REVIEWED Board Completes Task Monday—Addi- tional Classifications Announced. The locai board for this district completed Monday the task of review- ing the nearly 2000 questionnaires submitted by registrants in this dls- trict. Classification has been made in all but a small percentage of cases, these Including the men whose names have been placed upon the police list for having failed to return questionnaires and some cases on which the board is seeking- additional information. There are also some appeal cases, but as to the work of the local board is practi- cally complete, One of the incidents of Monday's work by the board was_that of clas- sifying its chief clerk, Irving H. Mi- ron, who waived all claims for exemp- tion and was placed in Class 1-A. Mr. Miron, who has proved a highly effi- clent assistant to the board, is now liable to a call for service. Last Classifications. Additional classifications Monday ‘were as follows: Hyde Smith, Putnam, 5; Rev. Henry D. Baker, West Wood- sfock, 5; Reca Alma, Waterbury, 5; Earl ‘B. Meade, Quincbaug, 1: Ernest Rardier, Putnam, adjutant general; Carl P.' Nelson, Putnam, 5; David I. Skedgell, Danielson, Louis D. Beau- soliel, Putnam, 4; Samuel Kay, New Haven. 1; Ovid Aucoein, Grosvenordale, 5; Albert Labonte, Putnam, 4: Clif- ford S. Janes, Dayville, 1; Arthur J. iting the above. One particular boy in Hartford county made enough to buy a Liberty bond and pay half on an- other, his profit being about $75. Such boys 'profit their country as well as themselves. A simple account book is furnished the boy or girl, and fairly accurate ac- counts are expected to be kept and a written report or story is required. The banks throughout the state have financed the boys and girls in this work quite freely. .Where the family could not afford to let the child have the money, a bank which was. inter- ested would loan the money on a six months’ note. The Yale National bank of New Haven, now the First National bank, financed about 200 pigs last sea- son; of this number only four notes were unpaid in due time. However, the money on these were paid when the child was visited. The City bank and Trust company of Hartford also financed quite a number of pigs in Hartford county, and will back an un- limited number this year. In this county the First National bank of Putnam has agreed to finance 50 pigs. They will loan this money on six month notes at § per cent. The child signs the note himself ar& takes all responsibility for carrying the project through. It is believed that this will teach the child how to borrow money and give him an understanding of real business, as well as teach him responsibility and livestock raising. If & boy or girl chooses to go into a breeding project, which lasts 18 months, the bank will renew the note at the end of each six month period. The Windham County Farmers’ as- sociation has offered $15 in prizes for the boy or girl who makes the most economical gaines with his or her pig. The work will be undér the direction of Assistant County Agent Walter T. Clark, and anyone wishing more in- formation about the work and wishing loans can confer with him.
