A F. Wood was in charge of the funeral arrangements. NURSES’ JOY RIDE Would Have Resulted Deplorably Had Not Local Motor Driver Arrived in Nick of Time. Joseph Natarski, who operates a big and powerful public service car, re- lated Tuesday morning his experi- ence while en route to Providencg, via Chepachet, with a party of young men, who left here just before mid- night and reached the point on the highway where the incident occurred, just beyond Chepachet, some 45 min- utes later. : The first warning “Mr. Natorski had of anything unusual was seeing a car stopped in the highway. Upon !ap- proaching he heard women’s . voices and knew that ‘all was'not well. Up- on the approach of his machine the lighter car.started to make a quick getaway, but he shot his car after it and had no difficulty in overtaking the smaller machine, whereupon the stran- gers stopped and the Natorski car’s passengers witnessed two young wo- men stabbing at their men .escorts with lonz hatpins. The women ap- pealed to be rescued from their posi- tion of peril and made short work of hopping into :the big public service car, fer the. protection they felt its passengers would give them. Mr. Natorski said that there were some words on all sides, but he finally drove off with the young women, who afterwards informed him that they were nurses, from Providence, and had gone out for a little ride with the men who afterwards made it neces- sary for the girls to.fignt vigorously to_defend themselves from assault. Mr. Natorski delivered the nurses . Providence. They stated that they were. connected with one of the hos- pitals in the city. Red Cross Canvassers Doing We, But People of Means Must Co-op- erate By Giving Generously. Another big boost was given the Red Cross fund in the Danielson dis- trict Tuesday. when. workers were canvassing with a system and thor- cughnesg that heretofore has been un- known in this vieinity. Mrs. E. H. Keach, head of the can- vassing committee, officially reported the total of Monday’s contributicns as $1279.05. While no final figures were available to show to what total Tues- day’s contributions had boosted the figures, it was felt that the $2,000 mark had been passed. To be up to schedule tonjght’s to- tal must be at lea: 2500, or half the amount the district is allotted to rafse. rTonight will bring the end of the first half of the six-day, canvassing period and should show at least half the dis- trict’s apportionment of $5,000 on hand. One little plan that was put into operation Tuesday was to form a spe- cial club of members who.woyld con- tribute $25. Alfred L. Reed was head- ing this movement and at noon had secured a number of eubscriptions. While many are giving and giving liberally, according to their means, canvassers are finding that some are rot doing their full duty toward the Red Cross in this drive, and it is al- ready evident that the Danielson d trict is falling behind other districts in the county in giving to the great work of mercy. Final appeals are being made for liberal giving and the workers hope to get some real heavy contributions before the end of the wetlk. DEATH FOLLOWS SISTER'S Mrs. Hannah Potter's Body Arrives From Maine on Day of Mrs. Tew- good’s Funeral. Tuesday evening the body of Mrs. Hannah Potter, who died Monday at Sanford, Maine, was received here and was taken to the undertaking rooms of Louis E. Kennedy. Mrs. Potter was a sister of Mrs. Sa- rah Tewgood, whose death occurred in Foster Saturday and whose funeral took place in that town Tuesday. details were available here Tuesday evening as to the causes of Mrs. Pot- ter's death, but it ‘was felt that news of her sister's death _ hastened the end, Road Oil Received. A quantity of road oil has béen re- ceived here and preparations are be- ing made for putting an oil suxface on séme of the state highway in towns in this section. Road men were“mak- ing ready on Tuesday to put a coat- ing of oil on the highway hetween At- tawaugan and Putnam. The state roads in ‘this section are not in first class condition this spring, but the.| attention of motorists is directed to the fact that transportation of road surface oil from southern oil fields is very difficult this year and that as much may net be done as has b done in some other years. ATTAWAUGAN COMPANY Contributes $5! 00 Toward Red Cross Fund. The Attawaugan company, - with mills at Attawaugan and Ballouville and offices in Norwich, has contrib- uted $500 to the Red Cross, it was an- nounced Tuesdav. As Attawaugan, though in the town of-Killingly, is in the Putnam_district, the contribution will be credited to the Putnam dis- trict. The contribution is one of the most liberal that has been announced by any corporation hereabouts.

Mur- ray—Minister and Judge Exchange Warm Words in City Court—Delis Beaudreault Marriage — Honor Roll For Odd Fellows.. Reports given out Tuesday indicate that the Red Cross drive is going to be a magnificent success is this dis- trict, if the pace so far set can be maintained. > An official ‘telegram sent- to head- quarters Tuesday at 3 p. m., gave the contributions received up to that hour as $4508, but members of the cam- paign committee said that this figure was at least $1,000 under the total of subscriptions known to have been made at that time.. « Therefore, at the middle,of the week the Putnam district is within $2,000 of meeting its apportionment of $7,- 500, but that figure now has been brushed mside and the “no limit” slo- gan is hung out from campaign head- quarters. G. Harold Gilpatrie, of the commit- tee, said Tuesday afternoon that he had just received a subscription of ‘When you wash your hair, be care- ful what you uSe. Most, soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. 3 8 i The best thing to use is just plain musified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's. very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps ort anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. 2 Simply moisten the hair with water | and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses ' out easily. - The hair dries quickly. -and evennly. and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle ow dust, dirt and dandruff. _— Tuesday evening a funeral service was conducted by Rev. Harrv A. Beadle for Mrs. Harry Smith, who died Mon- day. The body will be “taken this ,rn;)rning to Ossininfi, N. Y., for bur- al. 5 New Motor For Pumping Station. The new direct drive motor that is to be installed at the pumping sta- tion by the city water department has arrived here and it is expected that $500 from one of the manufacturing concerng of the cit¥, $168 in subscrip- tions from the operatives of the'con- cern and a $50 ‘personal costribution from the chief owner of the concern. Another subscription of $500 was re- ceived Tuesday from the Attawaugan company and $700 in subscriptions were reported from Dayvilie. “The Grosvenordales were also allve with activity, $1100 being reported from that section, while Woodstock and Pomfret committees also were do- ing splendid work. It is hoped now that at least $15,000 will be obtained in this district before the campaign closes Saturday night. The liberal giving is a convincing demonstration that the people of the district are alive to the wonderful work ofemercy that the Red Cross is performing and ‘tc the fact that the organization has tremendous prob- lems to cope with as the war goes on. Those who have given have set an | inspiring example: for those who are yet to give, asd it wilt be a dishonor, it is felt by many, not to be repre- sented in the list of contributors now being compiled if one can possibly contribute even a little sym, but the rule is “give until it hurts.” “Stop, Look and Loosen” is the watchword for those who see a Red Cross solicitor working this week, and loosen liberally!
