DANIELSGN Priva Vlmr Pereault Writes an the Front—Putnam Phalanx. to Visit Brooklyn on' Bunker Hill Day —Chauffeur Goes to Jail For Theft —Masonic Lodge to Observe St John's Day. From Somewhere in France, Pri- "| vate Victor Perreault, Company H, 162nd Infantry, Conmecticut’s fighting regiment, has written to relatives here of what it seems like to be in the very midst of a réal war. Private Perreault is well known here and at one time was engaged as a tree specialist. He says in part: “T will tell you something of my ex- perience in the trenches. We were in the line for weeks. Talk about ex- citement! One can get enough here in one day to last him a lifetime. I am writing this letter in my dug- out, which is 30 feet under ground, where the Boche shels cannot get us. ‘We have a candle burning, and one of the boys by the name of Jimmy Har- ney (also of Danielson) is across the dugout from me, reading; the rest of the boys are asleep in their bunks. We are up at might, so have to sleep in the daytime. We have to be careful when we go {out, so as not to get hit with the Ger- man shells, for they are apt to strike anywhere and the pieces fly in show- The boys in this regiment are show- s up wonderfully well, and already they have made the Boches sit up and take notice. I have had some real jobs to do here the past few weeks, believe me; but for all of that noth- ing has worried me yet. We have a fine bunch of boys and we have jolty times. I have had great experiences in the trenches. I_have seen air- planes fighting the Boche fivers and, oh, how they drop! One fell right in front of our dugout. 1 had one little experience that was interesting. I was sitting on the side of a little hill the other day when 'a German flyer went over and dropped a small bomb at me; but it fooled him; it didn’t explode. COMING TO BROOKLYN Famous Putnam Phalanx Plans Visit on Bunker Hill Day, An announcement made in Hartford is that the famous Putnam Phalanx will come to Brooklyn next Monday, Bunker Hill day.

Estelle Sprague, represent- ing the Hartford food committee and other organizations that are stri S for the conservation of foodstuffs, ad- dressed members of the food commit- tee of the Putnam war bureau at the Chamber of Commerce Friday. A great canning campaign is right ahead and among other things it was announced that the people of Connec- ticut will be expected to preserve 5,000,000 quart cans of perishable food this geason. Windham county's share of that big total is 234500 cans, and Putnam by itself alone is asked to produce 50,000 quart jars of preserved foods. This seems a monumental task, but it is felt by the workers that it can be accomplished if all do their parts. ‘County Agent Ellis said Friday at- ternoon that the people of all towns hereabouts must can every quart of foodstuff that is possible, for next winter is likely to be a record breaker as to shortage of foodstuffs in_this country, and the canned foods will be worth_almost their weight in - gold, from' the standpoint of having plenty to eat, when next winter's snows are falling and the earth seems dead. In the near future Puttam house- wives and-young girls will be asked to sign pledges to aid in producing can- ned goods, so that perishable food- stuffs may be saved and transportation lines relieved. Mr. Ellis advises get- ting jars and rubber bands ready now, for the canning season is opening. A_bureau of information is.to be established by the Farmers' association 0 that producers of canned foodstuffs may know where to find customers, | and vice versa. A bulletin board also is to be placed outside of the Chamber of Commierce that will give valuable information’ relative to when to can, how to can, and Where to get the food- | wood, | that goes to camp from this' district. jand George Potvin.
