When you buy “at home,” you see what you buy before 'you pay out your good money; you do not wait; you pay no high freight; you get known brands of goods from people you know who stand behind every thing they say and sell. Do not buy from us just to'keep your money at home and be loyal to your home town, but because you can get better stuff for less money and get it quicker than by sending to a far-away mail order house.

The Household - Bulletin Building, 74 Franklin Street Telephone 531-4 As newly elected vice presideat of the organization, Mrs. Rienzi Robin- son attended the meeting of the Wo- man’s board of the Day-Kimball hos- pital at Putnam Thursday afternoon. The Windham County National bank announced that it had recefved a supply of the fourth issue of Lib- erty loan bonds, which are being de- livered to subscribers who pay cash and want the securities at once. Two cases—intoxication—were dis- posed of at Thursday morning's ses- sion of the town court, An_army fntelligence officer who has -been here with Chief Michael Grimshaw ordered the. local official to | arrest all soldiers and sailors are found here without a rass. Constable Michael H. Grimshaw has been very ill witk influenza this week at his home in Attawaugan. Miss Miriam Boomhower, visiting nurse, states that there are so many cases of illness in and about Daniel- son that many patients are in need of such care and attention as could be given them by persons who might volunteer as nurses. Captain A. P. Woodward, inspector of small arms practice for the state guard in this section, has been at Putnam to inspect a rifle range, which he has approved. Iach of the com- panies hereabouts are to give much attention to rifle shooting. Streets in the borough that have had their surfaces roughed up by the wear of summer travel and storms, of the past few months are being fm- proved by men in the employ of the town. Center street has received some attention. With the opening of October, em- ployes of the Comnecticut mill who have become subscribers are receiv- ing the new' stock issue of the com- pany. ‘'The money from the sale of the stock is to be used for the pur- chuse of additional machinery for the big plant, which is constantly being expanded. British subjects resident here and under 37 years of age continue to in- quire why they have not received questionnaires. No questionnaires were mailed to them, in accordance with war department instructions, but they will get them later. “There is no general improvement in the health situation; people are recovering and others are becoming ill; we continue to have more than we can do.” This summarizes the health situation as regards grip, colds and influenza as viewed Thursday by me of Denielson’s leading physicians. There is one consolation, however, and that is Danielson is not experiencing influenza_as are many New Englind towns. “The cases here are not caus- ing .deaths. The following statement was given out Thursday afternoon by the Kil- lingly publicity department of the Liberty loan committee: Irancis B. Storer, chairman of the Liberty loan drive for the town of Killingly, an- rounces that there is a tendency on the part of the public not to realize the vital necessity of everybody sub- scribing to this issue of bonds in amounts larger than they bousht. in any of the previous issues. The total amount to raise is $6,000,000,000, Kii- lingly’s ‘quota is $400,000 and if the remainder of the drive lags in total amount subscribed, at the same ratio as to date Killingly will face the fact that they are not loyally and vigor- ously suPporting not only our own lo- cal boys But those from all other towns of the United States We all realize that at heart, Kil- lingly is 100 per cent. patriotic, but this must be materfally emphasized by having a 100 per cent. plus sub- scription. An early subscription to this loan is very desirous, as after this week, there remains but two weeks more in which to prove our loyalty. Officials here continue to find necessary from time to time to cail the attention of some registrants to the fact that it is necessary for them to work or fight. A few such cases were under investigation Thursday by members of the police departmen Going out on strike because the su- !perintendent is getting more pay than the scrubbers in a big munufacturing nt isn't a healthy proposition any It may, and will, it is said, to a cantonment for those who without real cause and won't who it Two more deaths from influenza were reported Thursday as occur- in_this vicin Odena M 18, died at his heme at what hag been known as the Dansereau |place at Alexander's lake.

S, was celebrant of the requiem mass. Burial was in St James’ cemetery, the funeral being one of the largest that has entered | that burial ground in a long time. The bearers were James Monohan, Edward Maher, Patrick H. Moran, James Gart- land, Gaston A. Maindon. Louis E. Kennedy was 1n charge of the funeral arrangements. The funeral of Mrs. Rose Balcom, wife of Charles Balcom, was held from their home in Attawauzan on Thursday morning with services at St. Joseph’s church at Dayville at 9 o'clock, Rev. Ignatius Kost being the { celebrant of a mass of requiem. Bur- ial was in St. Joseph's cemetery. { Louis E. Kennedy was the funeral di- rector. | Bob Ott’s nifty musical show opened its engagement to zood business at the Orpheum theater Thursday. Ogt is an old favorite here and many of his friends were in to_see his produc- tion on Thursday. The show was lively throughout, with good music, singing and dancing and all of the special features that go to make the tabloid musical revues so popular. Ott has strong support in his company for this season. Her many friends here were shock- ed Thursday morning to learn that the death of Miss Sarah Jeanette Putnam_had_occurred during the night. Miss Putnam had been fll for a long time. Miss Putnam was born in Brooklyn, this state, July 11, 1882, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert D. Putnam. She had lived all of her life in Brooklyn and Danielson and was a graduate of Killingly High school, class of 1901. Miss Putnam was a direct descemd- ant of General Israel Putnam, being a great-great-great-granddaughter. Her father, Albert D. Putnam, died a number of years ago. She leaves her mother, who was Miss Harriet E. Dor- rance, a brother, William H., who is a member of the banking firm of Richter and company, Hartford, and a sister, Daisy, who is teaching in New Jersey, NO MORE INMATES AT WOMEN'S FARM Upon the request of the board of directors of the Connecticut State Farm for Women, courts of the state have been requested not to commit women to the Conaecticut State Farm for Women until further notification, as all space now available is oceupied by the wome nalready committed. An appeal for the gift of a plaver piano and phonographs for use in its recreational work with the inmates of the Connecticut -State Farm for Wo- men was made Wednesday Oy the di- rectors of the institution. Love may be blind, but it knows ‘when the gas is too high. The local board has received notice that the following young men have been inducted intc the Student Army Training corps at the various col- leges they are attending: Edward Clayton Fisher, Brown, svidence; Raymond E. Smith, Brown, Provi- Gallup, Danielson, alcolm M. Wil- ‘orcester; Clar- n, Danielson, Clark, Worcester; - William R. Chandler, ¢f North Grosvenordale, Clark, Worces- ter; Byron F. Wilcox, Putnam, Clark, Worcester; Kenneth C. Ballard, Clark, ‘Worcester. A number of other young men from various towns of the district have been entered at S. T. A. C. camps, but no- tice of their induction has not yet been received. It was stated here Thursday after- noon that tlere is possibility of aero- planes being sent into this section of the state to give flying exhibitions as an afd to enthusing people to sub- scribe for Liberty bonds. The matter of landing places is the only difficulty that stands in the way of making the exhibition a sure thing. A representative of the Liberty loan committee of New England was through towns in this seation of the county Thursday afternoon, looking for ! suitable places for the machines to Jand, these machines to be flown hers from Hartford in case the arrange- ments are perfected. Postmaster Kenney of Mechanics- ville said while in this city Thursday afternoon that as vet he has been un- able to find any trace of Adam Yanch, a private whose name appeared some- time ago in the official casualty lists as killed in action in France. Yanch, whoever he may have been, gave his address as Mechanicsville, Conn. No such man has any relative in Mechan- icsville, which is only two miles ‘out- side Putnam. nor does any one in that mill village know him. In investizating the matter, which the war department desires to have cleared up, Postmaster Kenney has tried to locate reliatives of Yanch or people that may have known him in a section of the city of Danbury yat is known as Mechanicsville, but without success. War department communica- tions for relatives of Yanch are held at Mechanicsville. There were many subsc.ibers for Liberty bonds in Putnam Thursday. but the flood of buying that muat come if .Putnam is to make up the heavy apportionment that has been given it has not yet set in. Tomorrow marks the end of the period during which there will be peaceful waiting for volunteer suBscriptions. The house to house canvass will start next week, and then, it is confidently expected the heaviest amount of subscriptions from the public at large will begin to come in. The Liberty loan station in the Union block continues to receive subseriptions for bonds. Rev. Samuel J. Rock, Rockville, who will succeed Rev. Georze D. Stanley, who has gone to a church at Westerly, will preach for the first time Sunday as pastor at the Methodist church. Opinions from physicians here on Thursday was that the epidemic of illnegs in this city is beginning to de- cline; that conditions were improved Thursday and that even further.im- provement may be looked for today and tomorro Putnam has not been seriously afflicted with influenza. Tl1- ness here has been more confined to grip and colds, severe enough in them- selves to keep manv and in need of medical attendance. Friends here have learned that John Babbitt, formerly a resident on Ring street, has been commissioned a second lieutenant in the United States army, having successfully completed his course of training. There was a libera! response here to the Red Cross call for clothing to be forwarded for the relief of Belgian and French refugees. Hundreds of garments were collected many of them in splendid condition and all servicea- ble. The chapter has packed a num- ber of cases of the garments which ions seemed to be shaping themselves Thursday so as to make certain an early reopening of Put- nam's theaires It was thought on Thursday bv officials here that restric- tions against people congregating can, with safety, be removed during coming week. Members of the local board are to meet t morning to begin their work of class ing registrants of Septem- ber 12. By order of the war depart- ment the classifications will not be putlished until after the order num- | bers have been assigned. As the mas- ter sheet hnd not been received here from Washington up to Thursday aft- ernoon it is not probable that the classifications made can be published until next week, when a full list will be available for the press. Sarah Jeanette Putnam, who died at Danielson, was a direct descendant in the fifth generation of General Is- rael Putnam, the Revolutionary pa- triot for whom this city was named and whose name is especially revered by the people of this city.

KEEP HIGHWAY TRANSPORT UP TO THE MAXIMUM The United States Employment Ser- vice has instructed its representative for Conmecticut, Leo A. Korper, to refer to the highways transport com- mittee of the council of national de- tense all adjustments of labor emplo: ed in any phase of highways trans- port activities. The department of transportation of the Connecticut State Council of Defense will co-op- erate with the highways transport committee of the national council in carrying out the order of the United States Employment Service, The federal order applies to all states, and was made in view of the advisability of increasing transporta- tion facilities for the country \during the war through effective utilization of the highways. In referring these duties to the highways transport committee, J. B. Densmore, director general, United States Employment Service, wrote to R. C. Hargreaves, secretary ot hirh- ways transport committee, as follows: The United States imployment Service recognizes the war-time need for making the most effective and ef- ficient utilization of our highways as a means of strengthening and in- creasing our transportation resources, and especially is acquainted with the valuable direction given by the high- ways transport - committees to this problem. “We are also convinced that tom- mage capacity of our highways trans- port resources can he greatly In- creased by appiving all cles, horses and labor in line with na- tional policies promulgated by you and, naturally, in transportation that vitally aids in accomplishing our war programme. ‘e therefore desire to effect any ustment_of labor empioved in an: phase of highways transport act ity ‘relating to either powar or horse- drawn vehicles, in coop: n with yeur national organization, relying on your state highways transport com- mittees to furnish s regard- ing essential highw tivity with which they familiar and on w ocal labor departmer base their nece: ¢ or “We are therefore trans structions to ou vising them that ing or in any w nsport operations s h on the advice of ch our state v affectin to e be de: Hargrea of th will be to n hen every element of iation, serve those n transpo to t programme, time by the |CHRISTEN EAST LYME ROADS WITH NEW NAMES The town of East L s busi- | ness meeting on Monday, officially au- | thorized the geographical | names for Hast Lyme highwavs: { The road from Scott’s Corner to Steward’s Corner to be called the Upper Four Mile River road; thai from the trolley line to South Lym the Four Mile River road.
