The following are excerpts from letters written to friends here by Rev. James H. George, formerly rector of St. Alban's church, now in Krance, with the American forces: March 11. 1 have becn in two air raids since I hive been in Paris, and T can’t say I fike them. ‘I have been going to Ma- dam Cheney’s for, Frencl almost every night—I Wwas there on the occasion of the first spiurge, and as long as L was out in the open air when I had 10 business to be | enjoyed the sight. The fighting in the air was quite an fair. One couldn’t see our machines or the Boches', but one could see the flashes from, the guns. They got quite close to me before I reachzd the hotel and I was obliged to hit it up: Last_night -1 was. in the -southern part of the.city (Paris) and started to walk home as soon as the alarm for 4n air raid was given.

It was' lucky for me that 1 did. If I had continued for another two blocks in the direction which 1 was going I would have been just in time -to walk into three bombs. There were hundreds 6f women and children and many Poliu in the station. The terrific_explosions sounded like three great Mogul locomotives going one af- ter another over a bridge above us. Very soon a young man in Ameri- can khaki appeared on the opposite rlatform. He had on one of those straw helmets such as we used fo wear in China. T thought it a strange combination. He and some American Jackies were staying in a neighboring house, ‘and when the alarm Sounded they went out to see the show. A big Gotha swooped down directly over them and the German let off one of his flares. Then they beat it as the bembs were released in altogether too ciose proximity. The young American grabbed up the nearest hat and ran. “By G—" said he, “if this business isn't enough to make a man want to kill Germans, 1 don’t know what is!” The French were very cool and brave —there was only one woman in the crowd who became frightened. The little habes slept on in their mothers’ arms. \ In the group was a lady wearing American: khaki. and a sombrero. As she was a fellow countrywoman, I in- troduced myself.and found that she was an American doctor of the facul- iy, of Leland-Stanford university and connected with the Red Cross, It turned out. that she was Governor Mosher's cousin, a mutual Shanghai triend.

ONE.HALF SUBSCRIBED City Makina Big Effort to Attain Its Bond Allotment of $193,000. Thursday evening there was a meet- ing of the Liberty loan committee for discussion-of the campaign under way in this town. Putnam has not as'yet come - within hailing distance of the apportionment - that was given it to raise, and some tall hustling must be done between now and May 4 if this town is to be numbered among those that are to be awarded banners show- ing that the town has met the fult bhurden placed upon it by the govern- ment. Putnam’s apportionment—$19% 600— is_generally Tegarded as very heavy much more so -than is true. in pro portion, to what was ailotied the other towns in-the county, but the leaders of the campaigners here are not to be discouraged by that fact and will eek victory all the harder. for the winning will be better worth while that something that came to eas A house to house canvass is under |way and_is expected to give 0od re- sults. About one-half the allotment of Putnam has been subscribed. Must Increase Water Supply, The need of increasing Putnam's supply of city. water, as set forth.at special meeting of the common coun- has aroused many citizens who given much atten- tion fo the matter, to the fact that something must be done to adequately protact the city’s property from a fire hazard that is considered in insurance quarters as exceeding!y srave. There is general recognition of the fact that some means must be found 6 increase. the ‘city’s reserve supply of water, but the thing that hurts the most is that such a large improve- ment must. it avpears, be undertaken at o time ‘when war prices must be paid for the material and labor needed to @0 the WOrk. The Jaying of a new 16-inch main pplement the supply coming . in h the 10-inch main now in use, seems- the most practical thing to do under the circumstances, ‘it is.felt in :eny quarters, .and the investigation the water commissioners into the of the imnrovemen port to the ‘council with, a: great deal of interest. The ‘water system cost Putnam a lot of monev when it took it over from tie Putnam Water -company a few vears ago. and there are today Ccitl- vens of Putnem who Go not_hesitate ta say that the city drew the short eng .of the trade. In any .case, they say, it is now too late to cry over skimmed milk: that the facts ‘must Dbé faced and that more water must be brought into Putnam, no matter i the bringinz_ of . it does cost $50,00f or even much more than that sum.
