And this isn't a full list of the places depending on Brook. lyn’s presses, eSher. Hence, action must be taken. One of Danlelson’s most profound thinkers bas given deep study to this matter. He has suggested that the growing of apples be forbidden forthwith, espoc- ially during the winter season. Killingly’s mills are busy also, mak- ing cider, so nation-wide prohibition isn’t going fo strain anyone of the thirsty hereabouts during the coming winter anyway.

Just after 10 o'clock an “out of town zlerm” eall- ed. out the chemical cowipeny at the headquarter’s station. This company got away within two minutes after the alarm sounded, and the word was quickly passed about that the fire was at the French River inn. Arrived at thg fire the members of the Futnam department found smoke pouring out of the windows and a general”hustiing going on by boarders to remove their possessioys from the threatered building. The fire was quickly brought under control, but it was nearly an hour before it was fi- nally, ~extinguished. Meanwhile the home-like inn had been i¢mporarily ruined as habitable quarters. The fire had raged on the second floor of the two and ‘a half story ruilding. The exterior of the building did not show any great amount of damage after the fire had been put out, but the interior was considerable of a wreck. The loss by the fire is estimated at about $5,000. Water was poured inte the threatened structure from a hy- drant system that has long been es- tablished in the buildi The Putnam firemen did goed work in suhduing the fire. One length of their hose burst while they were at work. bt this in- terfered with their efforts in only small degree, thoush it reduced. the fight- ing pressure on that particular line. Tt is comsidered that a defective chimney flue was responsible for the fire; which -wéas discoverel by the cook at the inn. The alarm, immedi- ately-sounded. brought out the village fire fighters, these being supplemented later” in their work by the firemen. Miss Ellen Kingsley, who has lived at the inn since it - opened, went. to -her room on the second floor to get some valuable papers Upon at- tempting to make her out of the building she found the lway into which her room opened fited with fire d smoke, so she had to be taken :fit through a window of her room and down a ladder to safety. Boarders were auickly ni work try- ing to save their belongings and after the fire had been burning for a few minutes lawns all abou! the burning inn were strewn with ks, beds, bedding and other furnishings. The boarders’ possessions were in many cases considérably mussed up, but the losses were not great. The inn hnas bten maintained for a2 number of years by the French River Textile company, which operat- es a big worsted plant in fhe village and manufactures a high grade pro- duct. The.inn was.ideal in manv ways and made an exceptionally pleasant and finely eguipped workers' home for emploves of the company While no definite statcment was forthcoming Friday. it s the im- nression that the inn will be restored by the company. The fire loss, it is understood, at least vartly covered by insurance Orders have been received by the lo- ce in this division by December 10. The orders in the cabinets provided the gov- ernment and that each cabinet shall be sealed by Dr. J. B. Kent, chairman of the board. These records are to be kept inviolate and after the date men- tioned shall rot, in any degree or par- ticular, he cubject.to examination by anyone excepting. members of the board and authorized members of the clerical staff. This is in accordance with the orders to the board, as to al lther local boards, by Provost Mar- shal General Crowder. On these records. much will depend when insurance and pension claims come to be considered at the close of the war and thereafter. The records also continue the best available rec- ord of the district's mar power and much- of vaiue otherwise to the gow- ernmept. Many things concerning each registrant are set in .considerable de- tail ip the cuestionnaires and here- after no one except those mentioned will be permitted to examine these re- ords exeepting upon written order of the governor of the state or on a sim- ilar written order of the rrovost mar- shal general.
