Rev: Ansclym Mayotte, one of the assistant priests at St. Mary's church, is to leave almost at once for service as a United States army chaplain and probably will leave soon for France. Father Mayotte has been in Putnam just.a year, coming here after Rev. J. J. McGetrick, who' died at his home in Derby a few days ago, was called away. Father Mayotte is one of the regis- tered men of this district. He has be- come_very popular with the people of St. Mary’s parish during his stay in this city and it is expectsd that some special recognition will be made here before his departure of the service he is to render the country. Another Mill Running Monday. * Putnam observed its second Garfield Monday with due gecognition of all the restrictions that have been laid down in_the fuel conservation move- ment. The plants of the city have not been exempted from the operation of the rule wére shut down and the husiness section was closed up tight. The low temperature and tlreatenng storm kept people off the strects and gave the city a real holiday appear- closed today, played to large audiences, Added to the list of concerns in op- eration here Monday was one of the Morse-Nightingale mills, which has been brought under the exemption rule on account of being engaged upon gov- ernment work. Railroad Trespassing Prohibited. Trespassing upon railroad property is to be discouraged in this city, as is being done_at other piaces along_the ‘Worcester-New London branch. Peo- ple who have made a habit of taking cross cuts over railroad tracks or of walking along the tracks sgoing to er coming from work are now very liable te arrest for this practice. The rail- road company has special men who are engaged in warning people and warn- ings will be followed by arrests. CAUGHT IN.

Grange to Change Meeting Nights. Putnam syange met in regular ses- sion Monday evening and one of the subjects that came up for discussion " | was the matter of changing the dates for meetings for the remainder of the » | winter pericd, on account of the no- fuel-for-Mondays order. Heard Dudley Field Malo: Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Bartlett return- ed Monday from Hartford, where they attended the meeting addressed by Dudley Field Malone in the interest of the suffrage cause. Therc were 2000 persons at the meeting and $2100 was raised. There was only a small at- tendance from Putnam because of the lack. of train service to return here Sunday night. Reserve Officers Fail to Accept. Reserve officers in_towns in this sec- tlon have not seen their way clear to accept the zovernment's proposition that they go to the néarest training camp, if they desire active service, and put in a three months’ period of train- ing, with compensation at the rate of one dollar a day. In addition they are required to pay their expenses to the nearest designated camp, which for men hereabouts is Spartansburg, N. C. Considering the comparatively lib- eral allowance made to officers in training gt Plattsburg, the offer made the reserve men does not appeal to them and none have gone from towns in this section of the county. Heard and Seen. Miss Mabel Vernon is to speak at the assembly hall at the high school. Nelson Clair, Park strcet, recently appointed dog ‘warden, has taken up the duties of his office.
