Just two ,weeks ago the company, which has been quartered dt Fort Terry, Plum Island, since last July, was brought over to New Lon- don “and sent away on trains that took them to Camp: Merritt. Very soon thereafter the men embarked for, the ‘long ocean -vovage, which now has been safely completed and brings the ‘men of -the Danielson company close to the scene of actual hostili- ties. This brings to the men their wish. They left here late last July and completed a long -and arduous course of training ‘at- Fort Terry. While there there were ~numerous changes: of the personnel of the com- pany from the makeup when.it left Danielson, some .of the men _ being transferred for special duty, others to assignments for which they were par- ticularly well .qualified. New men have been added to the command, which now has a strength of approx- imately 250 men. When the command left here it was known as the. Thirteenth company, C. A."C. 'Later it was redesignated as the 38th Company, /L. I S, and still later was incorporated into a mobile artillery regiment as Battery B of a certain _commangd, In France the company will be known as Battery B and will fight under that designation. Before leaving here, men of the com- mand were cobvinced that their oper- ations “over there” would be as mem- bers of a.regiment .operating guns mounted on motor trucks, but nothing definite “is known about this. The men are also equipped and train as infantry, 'so will be able, in case of emergency, to take their places with the valiant foot soldiers of France and England who have so successfully held back the German hordes in the drive through Picatdy. 4 vanced. On acconnt of the longer distance that the men will be obliged to trayel in going: from this city to Camp Up- ton different arrangements for sending them out than has heretofore been necessary will be worked out. It may be necessary to assemble them here the night before then entrain, so as to get them away on an eérly morning There is an ample number of men in Class 1 in this district to meet the call that was received Tuesday. Another order received by the lo- cal board Tuesday was to make ready t6 send ifs quota of colored registrants to Camp Devens. No colored regi‘- trants have as yet been sent out from this district, but they will go out some time during the five days' pe- riod beginning April 26. The men fere referred to are ex- clusive. of the six that have been led to take a special course of training at the Parker Memorial school in Boston. Up to . Tuesday afternoon four volunteers to take un the special courses had been obtained. All are from the town of Kiiling] They are Joseph Billings, Henry H. Lafortune, Jerry Doyle and Alfred Goulet. The first two named will £0 out on April 15, the last two on May 1. Two more volunteers are wanted to go out April 15. The men that respond for this service will get a fine course of training, at the ex- vense of the government, at the Parker Memorial gchool in Boston and will win what are rezarded in the army as easy berths. To qualify for the places the men must be physically fit, must have at least an eighth grade education and must have an ap- Stephen. Pistallo, May Stewart. Room 1, Miss Cecelia =M.

Bouchard. The dog, believed to have been suf- fering from rabies, that was killed a ago at Grosvenordale, where staggering ahout the streets and frothing from the mouth, has been identified as having _been reg- istered in this town by Joseph A. Bouchard of Goodyear. The dog was registered Dec. 31, 1917, it was stated Tuesday by Deputy Commissioner of Domestic Animals Howard Elliott, who is working in this section, this being at about the time when the of- ficial made some prosecutions of per- sons in Goodyear for having failed to || cbserve the dog quarantine order. In the meantime Bouchard has left Goodyear and is sald to be living at Albion, R. . How he came to leave the dog behind him has not been as- certained, theugh this phase of the question is interesting Commissioner Eiliott. and Mrs, Isaac Relknap.the past week Miss Gladys.

WOMEN GET SUBSCRIPTIONS Had Sold $25,000 of Liberty Bonds Up to Tuesday Afternoon. Steady plugging to bring Daniel- son’s subscriptions to the Liberty loan 9p to the required figure continued bere Tuesday, when workers were busy for many hours. Again the wo- men workers are entitled to special ¢ommendation for the enterprise and patriotic zeal with which they are so- liciting loans. Up to Tuesday after- noon they had reported subscriptions of $25,000, slightly more than 2§ per cent. of the total subscriptions re- quired in the town of Killingly to win for it an honor flag. BEvery effort will be made to com- plete Danielson and Killingly's ap- rortionment of subsecriptions this week. The goal can be: reached If everyone will do all that they can and should do and the hope is that they will. Mill League Suggested.

Thompson Dog Owners to Be Arrested Following a visit to the Grosvemor- dales Tuesday by Howard Elliottfi the deputy commissioner of domestic ani- mals, there will he several arresty in the town of Thompson today. There are many dog owners in that town who are not paying any atten- tion at all to the quarantine order under which they are required to keen their dogs confined, and as a result some of them will have an opportunity to_explain to a justice today. A few days ago when Deputy Elliott went up through the Grosvenordales he found 16 dogs roaming about alons one short stretch of highway. This flagrant disobediance of the quaran- tine order nullifies, of course, in great- er or lesser degree, much of the good that the order was expected to ac- complich. Here in Putnam, too, dogs may be gested that a league made up of teams in Danielson, Dayville, Goodyear, and the village of Plainfield be formed and a scheduie of games drawn up. Every one of the big plants hereabouts has material for a good team and the for- mation of a league would oger oppor- tunity for a good season of sport. Mr. Mr. Labelle will be pleasea to hear from persons who may be interested in the project. Vote Suits Firemen. Members of thé fife department are well pleased over the borough's vote, the department. Recent experiences they have had in facing difficulties in getting horses, even being forced up- on_one occasion to borrow a horse that was drawing a junk wagon to get a truck to a fire, has made them fully appreciative of the valuable ser- e that a truck will render and of the advantage it will give them in fighting a fire by getting them to it aquickly. Woman Sent to Jail. In the town court Judge W. Fenner Woodward sentenceq Mary Bernier. woman - of middle age, to serve 180 days in jail, after she had pleaded guilty to a charge of a rather. serious nature that was preferred against her. It is said that the woman has been an inmate of an.institutign at Lakeville for some time. Man Given 120 Days. Joseph Varieur, Wauregan, who pleaded guilty to a charge similar to that preferred against the woman and who also pleaded guilty to having been intoxicated, was given 120 days in jail. Transferred to North Carolina Cards received here indicate that Charles E. Franklin, who has been at Camp Dix since December, has been transferred to Camp Seaver, North Carolina.

HAD GLANDERS. Two Horses Killed By Deputy Com- missioner Cofton. Two horses giving.indications.of ing affected with glanders were by Deputy Commissioner Colton. the department, of .domestic al of this state. The cases came to the attention of Dr. F. T. Baldwin, the state department’s veterinarian in this section. These are the = first horses to develop symptons of this dread disease in this part of the state. Mogul Locomotives in Use. What is being done to speed up freizht transportation over the New Haven road through this'city is’indi- cated by the monster locomotives that are beginning to make their appear- ance on the Hartford-Putnam route. ‘hese are of what are known as the 30 hundred” class and they are far and away larger and more powerful than any locomotives ever used on this division. 1t is possible that the still larger “32” and “35” types will be brought on to the division later.: So long and heavy are some of the trains now being hauled_over the _steep grades between Willimantic and- Put- nam that two ordinarily large freight locomotives and one of the _giant “30's” are being used to move them. One of the big locomotives also was given a test run over the Put- nam-Norwich-New London ' branch rccently and ‘negotiated the curves without difficulty. WilLFill Out Questionnalres. Several men who have been dis- charged either from the army or navy service and did not register June 5 be- cause they were in the service at that time have come forward now that they have learned that they must register, and willingly offer to fill out quess tionnaires. These men will get clas~ sifications on the same basis as have other registrants. There has been no effort on their part to evade the gov- ernment requirements, but they were under the impression that they need” not register. Three applications wefe: received Tuesday from men Who havi been discharged from the service. LIBERTY BOND DRIVE. > Continued Tuesday With Encouraging Results. The drive for Liberty loan sub- seriptions continued Tuesday with! good results. While the —subserip-) tions have been liberal, Putnam has & long way to go to fill its heavy quota’ of subscriptions and all who wish the: city listed on the honor roll of the country are being invite dby the work- ers to subscribe for a bond. The drive will continue in intensity as the days roll by, and it is hoped to make up' the quota well before May 4, the date. for closing the loan. Automobile Inspectors Coming.
