Friends here were shocked to learn of the sudden death of Ruth Bergen- gren, the five-year-old daughter - of Mr. and Mrs. Roy F. Bergengren, of Lynn. Ma She died at the Beverly hospital Menday morning of a broken neck and severance of the jugular vein, as the result of an automobile accident near.the North Beverly rail- road station. The little girl went to the station with her father in the morning in the automobile, and after the father had alighted to go to the train the chauffeur started to return home. In the car_with the little girl was a pet dog. The dog started to jump out of the car and in attempting to stop him the operator lost control of the car and smashed into an elec- tric light pole. The machine hit the pole’ with such force that the glass was splintered and a piece of it struck the neck of the little mirl, severing the vein, and the force of the collision caused the fracture of her neck. The burial- will be in Gloucester, the for- mer home of Mr. and Mrs. Bergen- gren. Mrs. Bergengren before mar- riage was Miss Gladyvs Burroughs. Mrs. Burdette P. Hopkins is in Gloucester today attending the funeral of Mics Ruth Bergengren. Word was received from Lieut. Syl- vio B. Maynard that he has been dis- charged from the army.

This position is assigned to them so that in case of fire. they can fall out with- out disturbing the remainder of the line procession. All of the societies In the north end of Putnam are making their plans as a unit, putting all arrangements in charge of a general committee of five. They ‘will form on Providence street and march to the center of the city. ready to fall in line as an entire sec- tion. This will simplify greatly the work of formation. It is thought now that the North Grosvenordale cadets fwill accompany this section of the parade, which will add greatly to the effect, Four bands and one drum corps have Ilready been hired by the general committee, and some of the organiza- tions are planning to have their own special music in-addition. The Polish Benevolent Society hopes to have an all-Polish band to accompany their delegation. e committee at its meeting Mon- day went on record as favoring a proposal made by Thomas MeDermott of the Putnam baseball team to have a game on the high school grounds. Mr. McDermott will gather a team of stars for this date, and has guaranteed to bring a fast team here to meet his own players. The game will be free of charge. and will form an important part of the dav's celebration. The committee also voted to allow Mr. Mc- Dermott to sell souvenirs at the grounds at a price which will just cover the expenses incurred by the team. Captain John Bulgar, of the Putnam police department, was high- Iy in faver of the baseball game. He stated that it will take people out of the center of the city and this relieve, for a part of the day at least. the tre- meondous congestion of traffic bound [ to result from such a celebration as is Ibeing planned. He will have many special officers on_duty to help handle the crowds. The Putnam school board is in favor of the game and ~have granted the use of the grounds. The speakers’ stand will also be lodated on the high school lot, but plans are be- ing devised to move it before the game, afterwards replacing It- Walter E. Hammond, principal of Putnam summer school, has submitted his report to the town school commit- tee. It follows: Sessions of the summer school for the season of 1919 began July 1st. Tt was at_first planned to have sessions three days a week, from 8 until 12 A. M. It was impossible to take care o fséventy children reporting for work, in that time so it was arranged to have school five days a week. from $ to 12. Having more time at his dis- posal the principal found it possible to bring the summer school to a close, August 4. The registrants for work school were divided as follows: Sixth grade [ 6 949 Reg. Pro. Attend Pirst grade 10 5 56 2-3% Second grade 17 13 5% Third grade L] 8 839 Fourth grade S g 83% Fifth grade 8 R 92 Seventh grade 14 96 Eighth grade 5 24% The total number registered was 71 and of those 59 were promoted. The attendance was very good except in the first grade and the poor attendance there prevented a large promotion. 1 feel that the summer school has Lien very suécessful and useful. T would suzgest that it might be pos- sible to have a special teacher take such children as need assistance for a week. during Christmas vacdtion and for a week at Easter time. Summer school might not then be necessary but in any case, T would suggest that the summer school continue for but four weeks and sessions five days a week, upper grades from $ to 12, lower ones from 1:30 to 5 P. M. There was an enthusiastic gathering of members of the local post of the American Legion in Eagles’ hall Tues- day night. Following the customary business, a general social, hour and esmoker was enjoyed. Rev. Boynton Merrill, pastor of the Putnam Congre- tional church, who served as chap- ain on the flagship during the war, addressed the meeting and explained to the members the advantages of be- . longing to the legion. His remarks! were enthusiastically received. Mem-! bers of the various committees of the legion were called upon and responded briefly | Benjamin W. Ellis, agent of the Windham County Farmers' associa- tion, was in Willimantic and Storrs on; Tuesday. A long troop train ‘carrying members of the Second division passed through Putnam late Monday night. It was on its way to Camp Devens. All of the men on the train had seen overseas service, and a large part of the time had been spent in Germany. ' F. C. Werkenthin, a representative of the department of agriculture, bu- reau of piant diseases, was in Putnam recently conferring at the rooms of the Farmers' association with Agent Ben- jamin W. Elis. Mr. Werkenthin is sent out to give information concern- ing potato wart, a new disease which. according to him, threatens the potato crop of the country. This disease was discovered last fall in Pennsylvani and the department of agriculture is making all possible efforts to stop its spread. Potato wart appears as a spongy growth on the potato, and since it does not affect the growth of the vine It is dimeuit to ind until the crop is being dug. Mr. Werkenthin advises Windham county farmers to watch their potatoes ciosely and to report at onece to Mr. Ellis if the wart is found, §0 that preventive steps may be taken.
