JETTE, Proprietor money the next three weeks, and your mite, if mite it be, will go into one tremendous fund that will be spent to whip the Boche and incidentally hur- ry_the home-coming of the boys. Every bank in Danielson will be ready this morning to receive sub- scriptions. Members of the campaign committee will do likewise. There are no exemptions or deferred classifi- cations in the Liberty loan drive! It is a case of buy or be rated as the worst kind of a slacker, if you possibly can buy one, for the man or woman who will not back the boys in the trenches certainly is not entitled to claim to be called an American. Manager J. F. Lewis of the Orpheum theater presented another high class entertainment for the patrons of the house Friday evening, when the at- traction was When Dreams Come True. It was one of the best musical shows Danielson has had and a trib- ute to the special efforts the manage- ment has made this vear to provide Danielson with high class productions. The 69th annual exhibition of the Windham County Agricultural society came to a close Friday. Few were on the grounds during the day, but those who did go found much to interest them, for, aside from the livestock, the exhibits remained undisturbed un- til late in the afternoon. The fair management, considering war condi- tions and inclement weather, found much in the results of the fair to be tnankful for, and the assurance is that the society will be able ta go on next | year with a fine show—what is hoped will be the first one after the war. Another meeting that it is hoped will contribute something toward the s of the campaign to make Kil- a “dry” town will be held on Sunday evening at 7 o'clock in the town hall. H. H. Spooner, secretary cf the Connecticc¢ Temperance union, and one-of the best known temperance workers in the country, will be the | speaker. His subject’ will be The | Present Situation. A large chorus is to sing. Some new cases of influenza were reported in Danielson Friday, but, on the word of one of the borough's best cians, there was nothing in the situation {o cause general alarm. This | physician stated that many persons are suffering from bad colds and mild cases of the grip, but not‘one in thir- ty of those whq are ill are suffering from influenza, though about every- one who sneezes feels, and often says, he has contracted the disease. Danielson and other parts of the town of Killingly continue to be very well off, as compared with many places in New England. The temporary closing of the schools is generally re- garded as a wise precaution and in a few days it is expected that general health will have so greatly improved as to permit of the opening of the schools without endangering the health oi the pupils. Danielson’s trolley service will be curtailed for the fall and winter months, beginning Sunday. The sche- dule that has been arranged for the local division appears in the Putnam news this morning. Principal Ernest R. Warren, who is ill. with influenza, was reported Fri- day as resting comfortably and his condition improved. He is not re- garded as being in danger. Mrs. George I. Eaton had the mem- bers of the Woman's Missionary so- ciety of the Baptist church at her home for a meeting Friday after- noon. Killingly’'s republican caucus to name delegates to the senatorial con- vention, to be held at Putnam, is! called for the coming week. Sergeant Charles Rapp, writing from France, states tnat he is in good health and that he has seen much of France while traveling about with the battery to which he is attached. The last of the guestionnaires to be nt out at thig time to Killingly men }lbe received here in this evening’s mail. j| and fitting of his cattle and a very deavored to enlist in the service. J. Carl Witter acted as starter of the races at the Brooklyn fair Friday. Some of Killipgly's roads have been badly washed by the heavy rainstorms of the past few days, Among the cattle exhibited at the Brooklyn fair the herd of registered Ayrshires of Peter Chabot of Waure- gan attracted considerable attention ¢n the part of lovers of fine cattle and the public in general. Although Mr, Chabot is only a young breeder and a still younger exhibitor he has shown rare judgment in the selection good understanding of the fundamen- tal principles of a.successful breeder. His herd included 17 head of choice cattle divided in eleven, entries. Al- though there was strong competition in nearly every class, he won eight first and two seconds out of a pssi- ble 11 prizes, awarded as follows: first on bull, first.on bull calf, first on a cow herd, first on a yearling herd, first on a yearling herd, ffirst on a calf berd, first on cow four year or over, first on bull and third of his get, first on yearling heifer, second on heifer, 3 years or .over,.second on heifer 2 years or over.

The preva- lence of Spanish influenza in the can- tonmenis and the heavy toll it has been taking of soldiers has led to the postponpment of sending men to camp. Men who have received induction certificates will get later notices as to when they will be called upon to re- port in this city to go to camn. The f*urth Liberty doan drive opans in Putnam today. Harry C. Meinken, member of the committee that will have thel work in charge in Putnam, said Friday morning that the people are asked to make voluntary subscrip- tions during the first week of the drive. As] those who wish to sub- scribe for the bonds and w so without being solicited will contrib- ute immensely to lightening the bur den that is placed upon the shoulder of those who have the loan in charze here. criptions are now being re- at Rutnam’'s banks and on Ijberty bondf booth will be opened in what has been .known as | Tucker’s store, in the Union building: This booth will open Monday and bus- iness may be done there from 10 in the morning to 8§ in the evening every day next weely, On, Saturday the booth will be kept opén until 10 p. m. Arrangements also have been made by the committee for the taking of sub- scriptions at the mill offices, that op- cratives may not be put to unneces- sary effort in getting into line with the millions that will put up their money to help whip the Huns, now on their way to the [Rhine.

William Collins, a to live in the and who has con- ali- | man er Po Gr a emj bee 3 railroad yards here, was locked up Friday morning by John Murray of the New Haven road nolice. Collin could not produce 4 registrati when asked to do ko. He howe that he registered last ve and eventually was inducted into ser- vice at Camp Devens, which canton- ment eventually rejected him as ph sically unfit. He was held pending an investigation- of his claims. ard n cz Private Archie Bourgeois, East Put- nam, is reported as recov Devens after being very il with Spanish influens dangerously His con dition has been so serious that at times his life was despaired of. Relatives o have been at the cantonment to visit with him say that the soldiers there who are ill are receiving the very best of care and that everything humanly possible is being done to protect them from becominz sick and to bring them back to health if they become ill, Today will give. Putnam people the last of what has been known as the summer trolley service—an hourly service out of this city to all points along the line, north and south. With tomorrow, Sunday, a new and cur- tailed schedule of service will go into effect. This change is id to be due to several causes—the inability of the company to get sufficient help to run i, its cars, to increased costs of opera- tion and to the decrease in traffic A special programme has been ar- ranged for the Rally. Day services to be held at the Congregational church Sunday morning. Two touring cars were in collision at Elmville in the storm of Thursday evening. One of the cars, owned in the town of Plainfield, was damaged, but not to any other great extent. The other machine was driven by Michael Longo of Danielson. No one was in- Jured. Attorney Eric H. Johnson, Putnam |g1s democratic candidate for senator from the district of which Killingly is a part, is facing heavy desertions from the ranks of the party in this town because he has proclaimed himself as favoring a prohibition amendment. The democrats who are dissatisfied in Killingly with his stand say they will not vote for any man xrho is not will- ing to refer the amendment proposi- tion to the people of Connecticut. There have been more than 40 cases in the town court of Killingly dur- ing September, a record that most of the people of the town will not care to boast about.
