The truck was coming down the from “ the East Kilingly road to the} Dahielson-Bimville state road, along ‘which the Babson car was traveling, en route to East Killingly. Near the brick mill and before the Babson car had gotten off the state road to swing up- the hill the crash came, the ma- chines at the time being on the elec- tri¢ car tracks. The: machines were not badly dam- aged, though the Babson car, which & damaged forward spring, on the left side, and other damage was.towed to a Danielson garage. One of the biggest coons taken in this county this. fall fell to the lot of the Killingly Hunting and: Fishing club and Bohemian club hunters Sat- urday evening on their annual coon bunt starting from Camp Whippoor- will, The night was fdeal for the sport, moonlight, = clear —and _sunappy. The hunting pagty had been away from the camp less than two hours when the coon was brought in. The animal had been treed by Jack and Chief, the coon heunds of James Kent, Eimville, who was a director of the hunt. Though the hunters remained out, urtil 4 a. m, they did not get only the one coon which was taken early in_the evening. Between 40 and 50 were at the éamp for the hunt and the supper that pre- ceded it. This is a smaller party that usually goes out for these annual events, which have been a fixture with the club for nearly a decade. Those who did make the trip, though, had a splendid time. A chowder supper was prepared by 'W. A, Whipple and to this the hungry men did tuii justice. Many of the members of. the party returned to Danielson by midnight and only a small party was at the camp when the tired coon hunters arrived after their night's tramp, ‘! The body of Miss Amelia Lavender, who was run over and killed by a big motor truck, in New Bedfor arrived here Sunday frbm that ¢ity’ and was taken in charge by Undertaker Louis E. Kennedy.

A large and enthusiastic audience greeted the Countess Turcznowicz, wife of a Polish nobleman, who spoke at the Gem theatre Sunday night un- der the auspices of the local Red The meeting opened with music by an orchestra, after which the.audience sang The Star Spangled Banner. The countess, who was introduced by Frank P. Fenton, chairman of the Red Cross, held the attention of her audience as she told of her harrowing experiences when she was caught in the flood tide of the German invasion of Poland in 1914. She described her Red Cross work among the Polish people, her fight for the lives of her three little childten against typhus fever and from the Germans and of her release and jour- ney through Germany and Holland to this country. She made a strong ap- peal to all Americans to ajd the people of the devastated Buropean countries and compared Poland and its tragedies with America. Since the Countess Turcznowicz -has been in this country. she has done more for the relief of the Polish people than any other single person except Paderewski, who is a Pole, whilé she is a Canadian. The evening’s program was completed - by a three reel moving picture, entitled For All Humanity, part of which was taken overseas. STAFFORD SPRINGS George Toman was fined $5 and jcosts by Judge Heald of the borough court Friday morning for refusing to keep his dog tied in accordance with the regulations of the commissioner on domestic animals.

Contributions to the united war work fund in the Danielson district (Xil- lingly and Brooklyn) were in excess of $14,000 Sunday afternoon, Mrs. E. H. Keach stated at that time. This splen- @id showing does honor to every part of the district, which, in all of its di- visions, made returns of which all are proud. In Danielson and East Brook- Iyn more than $9,000 was cbtained. Mrs. Keach ls. delighted with the ganerosity of the people and with the manner in which the campaisn was conductéd by her teams of iorkers. More money continues to come in, one contribution of $50 being received on Saturday night. One of the latest large contributions' announced was $1025 from the Danielson Cotton com- pany and its employes. Special men- tion also is being made of the com- paratively liberal manner in which the pupils in the School street school gave to the fund. The district's quota was but $9,000, but it was realized that a great many cities and towns would far exceed the amount apportioned to them, so the drive was started in this district with a view to getting as large an oversubscription as possible. Mrs. Keach is publicly expressing her thanks for the co-operation of the public in making the big success pos- sible and also to the workers who so earnestly devoted their'time and ener- gy to the big undertaking.

Pri vate Barbeau has written his relative and friends regularly since he was captured, wounded. He should be among those who have come out of Germany during the past iwo weeks. It is expected here that he will rejoin his regiment, if he gets safely through Germany, where conditions are terr: bly upset and where little cr no pro- wsion is being made for the return prisoners in accordance with armistice regulation: Thanksgiving will be a holiday in Killingly, all the big manufacturing concerns closing for the day.

Frank A. Roth is to give an organ recita] at the Methodist church Tues- day evening. The program he has ar- rahged includes a medley of standard overtures. The little pig won at the farmers' corn show by David Clark of Killingly avenue, Putnam, is a thoroughbred Berkshire and it is stated its value is at least $30. Mr. Clark won the pig for having the finest 50-ear exhibit of corn. There is interest. here as to just ‘when one of the railroad engineer reg- iments that has been in France since July of last vear willk be returned to this country. There are a number of Putnam_ railroad men with this regi- ment, all volunteers, who were among the first of the American troops to get to France. ‘Although practically.all the selective service work in this district must be closed within the next two youths of "18 are obligated to fill out their questionnaires and return them to tre board. These young men will not .have to undergo physical exam- inations, hewever. State guard members here. believe that their organization will not be dis- banded for months to come:and they may have to remain in service until such ‘time as the national guard is re- organized and restored on its pre-war basis. The company here has devel- oped well and will now rank with many of the guard companies that were in the state before the United States entered the war. The body of Frank A. Magee, head of the Magee Foundry company, was forwarded from Pomfret, where he died, to Boston. The body was to be cremated. Sergeant Perle Warner, formerly a member of the Warner-Averill com- pany of this city, was in town Satur- day. He is a member of the S. A. T. C. and has<beer* at a training station in New York state.

A number of Putnam soldiers who are at Camp Devens will be mustered out of service, if plans go well, in time to be at their homes here for Thanks- giving. They are members of the 12th division. There was also cause for joy to many here in Sunday’s announce- ment that the 76th division is sched- uled ‘to return from France. This is the ‘first division trained at Camp Devens and has been abroad since last summer. In it are many selected men of this district who went into the ser- vice during the fall and winter of last year. Up at Tourtellotte school, North Grosvenordale, two of the studénts have gone into the skunk business for the season in an effort to raise money with which they will meet pledges to the war fund. Pelts are bringing big money this year, so they will not have to work long to redeem their pledges. The boys are Henry Duval and Her- bert Corttis. L. H. Healey of North Woodstock has been at Portland, Me., attending a meeting of agricultural secretaries. Mr. Healey has been for years secre tary of the Connecticut agricultu board and he is a -hustler who k« posted on all that is doing relative to agriculture. The splendid weather of the past two months has contributed material- ly to the successful manner in which the work of building an auxiliary 12- inch water main into this city hae been carried: out. With open weather in' December, it is possible that the work will be so far advanced as to permit of putting the line into ser- vice. If this can be done, it will be very pleasing tothe Putnam people who recall what happened “to the water system here during the bitter and long continued winter weather of last year. Degrees will be conferred upon a class of candidates of Putnam grange this evening. This will be the first degree work at ‘the organization since the influenza epidempic put a -stop to public meetings. Among those who will receive degrees tonight are former Mayor and Mrs. J. J.
