Berkshire, in northern Vermont, are " expe home next” Monday. During their stay away they have been aeress the border into Canada and in the Adirondack and Green Mountain regions. On a recent morning they experienced a temperature of 28 de- sey where they are stayirg—4 de- grees below the freezing point. Harry O'Reflly, who was in the service in the quartermaster’s depart- ! ment has returmed to his employment with the Danielson Cotton company, where he was a member of the office force before he.enlisted. The postoffice will be open only on “ the usual holiday schedule of - hours tomerrow, the Fourth. City and rural delivery services will be suspended and ne _money order business transacted.- Ensign Lester Bill, an officer on ‘the Unfted States transport De Kalb, is vigiting with his father, Judge Ar- { thur G.

Ruseell, provides a fine of.not less than $25 and not more than $50 or * 30 days in jail, or both, for any person < who sets snares. Half of the fine im- posed goes to the person who furnish- es the information, the other half to the town in which the takes place. The construction company that is to have charge of the building of the big brick restaurant building to be operat- ed by the Goodyear mills at Goodyear is on the job, which will be completed, it is expected, in two months. Chief John McFarland of the pelice force served warning on Wednesday that no firing or other disturbance will be permitted tonight. Those who wish to celebrate in noisy manner the coming of the Fourth will have to Tait until ¢ 8. m. Friddy morning or be subject to arrest, as is provided by state law. Private Paul Floru, recently returned here after service overseas, brought back an interesting collection of war relics and souvenirs. Included in the lot, which was being shown at Georsge F. Davigh6rfs store Wednesday, is a German officer's canteen, - something different from those most of the relic hunters obtained to bring back. Mr. Fleru has entered the employ of Geo. F. Berris. It is hoped that 15 new dwellings iwill be erected at Industrial place by the Connecticut Mills company before “fthe mext cold weather season arrives. 2This. big corporation is badly in need Fof additional housing facilities. Work Snow’ beng done about the mill prop- Jerties includes the grading of Morin venue. s W. I. Bullard, who has been in Eu- rope, and has visited in several coun- “iries during the past few weeks, will sail- fer home next - week, probably ‘about the 11th. He will be in London next Monday, Mr, Bullard is in Eu- rope as a member of the commission that went from the United States to arrange for the holding at New Or- leans in the fall of a World's Catton _congress. This will .+bring tdghther cotton men from many parts of the United States and mere than a dozen European countries. On Connecticut Milis field, at North street, there will be two big baseball jgames and a number of other athletic jevents e tomoerow. the Fourth. At the eleon Cotton company team will !’tz-v:l-h the opposition, there is bound be big interést among the hundreds jof employes of the two concerns and \their friends. The events at this fleld ‘will furnish the chief attraction - in ‘Danielsen for the holiday and Manager {W.

This piece of road had become very badly worn by heavy : traffic, which moves over it each sea- . son in constantly increasing .volume, large numbers of trucks being included among the vehicles. Extra cars will be run tomorrow .by the trolley company to accommodate the hollday traffic. Many observances of the Fourth are planned in different eastern Connecticut towns and it is anticipated that travel will be heavy. Wildwood park, as usual on holidays, will attract many from all of the sur- rounding country. Two new laws in effect July 1 are genera! interest. One of these requires that miik dealers shall be licensed ia Comnecticut. The licenses cost six dellars each and may be obtained from . prosecution > as:before’ A ltions in welcome of Clerk, Frank |;r. Preston x-“a n‘v‘-‘l. nesday that has’ rece ved a ly ber of applt uon-fl:ar, such . licenses from peddiers of milk. o Mr.’?n’-wn also stated Wednesday that . non-residents of Cennectieut hereafter must take out a license to fish in this state. He has received blank forms for issuing such licenses, which will cost $2.25 each. This law, now in effect, will shut out, in this partcular section of Conni t, many Rhode Island and Massachusetts fish- ermen who are in the habit of coming over into Connecticut to fish streams and lakes. Quondock brook, which runs inside the eastern horder of the town of Killingly, within a mile of the Rhode Island border, is a favorite trout stream with the Rhode Islanders, who will now have to pay for the sport of fishing it. The license money non- residents pay in for fishing will in a measure compensate for the assist.| ance they give in stripping stocked brooks and. lakes, the cost of stocking which is borne in Connecticut. Markdown sale of shoes at the Key- stone store.—adv| PUTNAM This city experienced what might be called a bug shower Wednesday aft. ernoon, one of a serles occurring this week. Now, a bug shower is some- thing out of the ordinary and it arous- ed a lot of interest, as well as irri- tation, among Putnam's people. Those who have become awfully dry were inclined to blame the visitations upon prohibition, belleving that any- thing ean happen now. Others guess- ed the millions of pestiferous visi- tors must be parasites released by the state entomological department to feed upon gypsy moths. Still oth- ers were very positive in their decla- ration that the bugs were just an- other darned nuisance—and nuisance, as a description, covers the ground about-as well as any word could. Millions of the little green fiying things settled down upon the business section’ Wednesday afternoon, alight- ing in swarms on prespiring humanity and everythinz else in sight They were most unwelcome visitors. They didn't seem to have any -sting, but they were uncomfortable little com- panions. and unwelcome ones. They got into business places and into automobiles and afl over peo- ple's clothing—and wherever they alighted they remained until brushe off. The visitation of this Jittle pest is not general in this territory, but seems tb center around Putnam. On recent evenings the swarms of these insects have been .so great that they have settled onto windshields of cars in such numbers as to obscure the vision of drivers, and have had to be scraped off before care operators could proceed with their ride. The man with a thirst that is the result of long years of patient culti- vation will find some consolation in easing it off and getting down to a bone dry basis in the fact that near- beer is being offered for sale in some places in Putnam. This was being offered to the trade Wednesday and was winning' patronage from many who declared that “we'll try anything once.” Some of them tried it more than once. As far as dealing in intoxicants is concerned, however, there Is nothing doing in this city, and, it is said, will not be until the war-time prohibi- tion-ban is lifted. An emergency hospital which has been established at North Grosvenor- dale will be open for inspection by the.public for the first time this:afters noon, also on the Fourth and on Sat- urday. The building In which the hospital is located has Just been remodeled and equipped by the Grosvenordale com- pany, operating the big textile plants in the Grosvenordales. It is a roomy structure with broad, screened veran- da for ‘use of the natieats. At the front is a parlor. with hard wood floors and furnished with a beautiful rug, writing desk,-book case and easy chairs. The operating roem is fin- ished in white enamel. All of the appointments throughout the build- ing are splendid and nothing that would contribute to the comfort or well being of the patients has been overlooked. Miss Olive Milet, whose home Is in this city, but who has been stationed in the Grosvenordales for some time, is the graduate nurse in charge of the hospital The ward ecuipment includ- es Betz beds, of most modern type, with special elevating and depressing springs. . The building is equipped for steam heating and. electric lighting The new hospital is the outcome of the establishment of a Visiting Nurse association in the Grosvenordales in Ogtober of last year. J. F. Reardon, agént for the Grosvenordale company, is president of the association. The scope of the work of the associataion since it was organized Is shown by the report that between December of last year and June of this vear Miss Milot treated or visited 1132 cases.

The police will be out in foree tonight to see that the celebrators do not get too demonstrative Business was “goed” in the city court Wednesday, as officials of the tribunal understand the term. In this case good means that there was no business, and this is expected to be the rule in the future. It has been estimated that 90 per cent. of the eity court business here grew out of the indiscriminate use of liquor Many members of Putnam grange have planned to go on the ofganization’s annual picnic to be held at Roseland park in Woodstock on the Fourth. The brick work of the dwelling be- ing erected on Grove street for ron D. Bugbee is now up near second story level and the building work is_progressing steadily. Miss Ruth White, a_teacher in the schools of Breoklyn, N. Y., is at her home here for the summer vacation. Fresh air children from New York are expected to arrive . inm - Putmam about July 22, and will be quartered in this town and vieinity. Ia accordance with Mayer A. W.

GALES FERRY The speaker at the Sunday morning service in the M. E. church was Gus- tave T. Bochman of Hartford, fleld secretary of the Connecticut Temper- ance union, who spoke convincingly of the temperance work at hand. En- velopes were distributed by the ushers for offerings to further the work. Mr. Bochman addressed the Sunday school at noén, taking his theme from Prov erbs 3: 1-18. At the Epworth league evening service at 7.30 the leader, Mr: Rufus W. Hurlbutt, had as the topic ‘What Does Loyalty to Our Church and Country Call For? This service was & patriotic one, with the Stars and Stripes draped over the library, with the service flag at the right and small- or flags crossed in every window. The meeting opened with singing the Star Spangled Banner and other patriotic songs were sung.
