Burroughs, Frederick E. Bitgood, Frederick A. Jacobs, Ernest R. Warren, Joseph N. Lavallee; Herman Conlter. The forty-eighth annual report of the institution as rendered by Treasurer Potter shows that the past year has been the most suecessful in the history of the Brooklyn Savings bank. In the 12 months just past the depeosits amounted to $988,948.07, a million dollars, nearly the largest amount ever received in de- posits by~the bank within the period or one year. The net increase In deposits posits was §386,126.21, and the new ac- counts opened numbered nearly 1,000. As of the date of the report rendered to the annual meeting the deposits were $3,258,351.73, the largest in the history of this bank, and the growth continues to be constant, week by week .and month by_month. "The total resources of the bank are shown by the report to be $3,500,245.79. The depositors of the bank are repre sentative of all of the towns and Vi lages/and of all the farming communi- ties in this section of the state, Danielson is very proud of the Brook- Iyn Savings bank one of the strongest in the eastern part of stgte, and of the fact that the institution hs grown very materially since is removal to Danielson a few years ago.

Seward is enter- taining Mrs. Frank D. Sargent of Wor- cester. Mr. and Mrs. Frank F. Russell and daughter, Miss Constance Russell of Grove street, have gone to Jamestown, R. I, where they are to spend several weeks. A number from Putnam were in Willimantic Thursday attending the sessions of the school of citizenship being conducted by the citizenship de- partment of the Connecticut Woman Suffrage association. Miss Lillian Maertens is te lead the Y. P. S. C. E. meeting at the Second Congregational chureh Sunday night. Thursday afternoon at 2:80 in the guild rooms of St. Philip’s Episcepal church, Miss Mary J. \u:hols of the New London Archdeaconry addressed the Woman’s Auxiliary of the church. Refreshments were served following the address. Funeral services for Warren, 89, the widow of Edmund Warren, formerly of Eastford, were held Thursday afternoon frem the Eastford Congregational ehurch. Rev, A. B. King, formerly papstor of the chureh officiated. Burial was in Eastford cemetery. Mrs. Warren died Monday at the home of her niece, Mrs. James Page, in Danielson. The enginzering firm of Sanderson & Porter has been engaged by the es- tate of Frank A. Sayles to direct the management of the Putnam Light & Power company, which company was one of the holdings of Mr. Sayles, who died some months ago. The fact that this concern has been employed to di- rect the business does not mean that there will be any change in the person- nel of the organization. The engineers will merely direct the operation of the Putnam company’s growing property. Sanderson & Porter have a recognized standing with public service commis- sions and other regulating bodies and have a wide reputation in work of the nature which they will undertake here in Putnam. For more than twenty vears they have been engaged in the construction and operation of public ntilities in this country, also in Europe. In order that the town of Putnam may take advantage of the bequest of rs. Mary Gardner who left her prop- Mrs. Emily ry to call a special meeting of the town to see if the voters wish to accept the gift. This meeting may be called by the selectmen upen their own initiative, or at the request of twenty citizens. If the building is accepted by the town, and a small library kept there, there is a possibility that the remainder of the house which is upon the property may be devoted to com- munity purposes. Already Anselm Mayotte pi American Legion, has begun to make investigation and’ in- quiries to see if a part of the building would be available for post use, pro- vided it is taken over by the town. Inwstigation has failed to reveal the |cause of the fire' Wednesday ch destroyed the garage on the property of Victor Chapdelaine, Church treet, also burned the Ford sedan of 1 odore Wadsworth which was kept i there. The automobile was placed in rage at 10:30 Tues night. he fire was discovered at 2:30, four hours fater. The building was wired with electricity, and a short circuit is the en planation that Mr. Wads- worth can suggest, though there had been no indication previously that lhe wiring was in anyway defective. Frank L. Davis, county agent of the | Windham County Farmers’ assocjation stated Thursday that the late blight of potato is appearing on a few farms in Windham county. This is the dis- ease that caused the greater percent- age of potato rot last year, and which caused some farmers in this part of the county to lose their entire crop. According to Mr. Davis it would be ad- visable for all those raising potatoes to take out their potato crop insur- ance by spraying with Bordeaux mix- ture. In g information as to the proper manner of spraying, Mr. Davis says that those who are not in the habit of spraying more than five times during the season would do well to put on an 8-4-50 mixture for the last two sprays. This %nixture is com- pounded of eight pounds of copper sulphate, four pounds of lime, and 50 galions of water. Mr. Davis has also npoticed lice in potato fields, and he advisgs looking under the leaves from time to time to see of the insect has attackeg the crop. Plant cile, he says, work with exceeding rap once started, but can be com- pletely contrelled by a thorough spray- ing with Black Leaf 40. One half pint of this- should be use in 50 gallons of water, and sprayed directly upon the j insects. ! Ralph E, Thurston, general manager of the Putnam Light & Power com- pany predicts that the charge for gas in Putnam is soon to be increased. Mr. Thurston states that the company is now paying approximately twice as much for coal as before the war, and that the price of oil, which is used to enrich the gas and normally was a large item in the expense of produc- tion, has increased 300 per cent. La- bor and other items of expense have also jumped fabuolously. The concern has held back from gny increase in rates in the hope that the commodity they continue to go up. For this son he is certain that the advance in the price of gas is certain to come, particularly when it is kept in mind that in 1919 the gas department earned no return upon the investment. A ditching demonstration by the use {of explosives is to take place on two farms in the north and south end of Windham county on August 26. Coun- ty Agent F. L. Davis of the Farmers’ Association has completed arrange- ments, and has procured an expert who will come to the county on that date. Thursday was visiting' day at the Boy Scout eamp on Webster Lake where twenty Putnem scouts with their | scoutmaster, Rev. G. €. S. MacKay are passing two weeks. Parents and friends of the boys were guests at the camp, There is always something new un- der the sun, and now and then some- thing jolts the regular routine of life. even in Putnam on a het summer aft- ernoon. At least that is the opinion of this aftrnoon. All four were hot, and weary, and bored nearly to extinction, for Thursday aft- ernoon in Putnam, with the shops shut tight, and the clerks and shoppers making merry out 3t the country club, or at Roseland or Alexander’s lake, is about as exciting as tiddledewinks. Then it happened and all four gasped and rubbe- their eves. They looked once, they looked twice, they were trying to look a third time but didn’t get the chance—but they didn’t need to. They had seen enough to be convineed, and they realized simultaneously that they had gazed upon the first of its kind in the higgest littie metropolis in ‘Windham county: an honest-to-good- ness young weman, twenty-five or un- der, wearing honest-to-goodness socks. They were sleek and silky and came just a couple of inches above the shoe top, And above that—Oh, lady, lady! “Gosh!’ said one of the quéartette as the charming miss stepped up on the site sidewalk, “I thought they wore those in the movies!” _The erty on South Main street to the town providing a library is at all times maintained there, it will probably be| morning § HOW*TIZ"GLADDENS TIRED, ACHING FEET NO MORE SORE, PUFFED-UP, TENDER, ACHING FEET—NO CORNS OR CALLOUSES. “Tiz” makes sore, burning, tired feet fairly dance with delight.

The four looked at each other and grinned, and then life once more resumed the even, normal tenor of its way. Mrs. Augustus Cutler of Bellview street, Oak Hill, entertained a few of her mother's friends Thursday even- ing in honor of the latter's birthday. Members of Anselm Mayotte Post of Putnam are planning to include a mara- thon run 3s a part of the track events of the county field day which the four posts of Windham county are arrang- ing to heold on Labor day. Those in Putnam who are interested in such an event are talking of Putnam as the starting point, with the finish at Phil- ips Grove, Alexander's lake. Putnam has at least two members of its post who have done long distance running. Rev. Boynton Merrill is ne of these, and Latour finished second in the in- ter-allied marathon which was held overseas. Jack Ryan is td meet all those who are trying out for the races tonight (Friday) at 7 o'clock ‘on the high school grounds. Railroad employes in the Putnam vard are not talking much concerning the wage award which was announced in the newspapers three days ago. Un- til the official text of the railroad board wage award is received, they are merely marking time, at the same time keeping their eye on the deliberations of their official representatives, now convened in Chicago. Until the ai- sembly of railroad employes’ repre- sentatives closes no action of any kind is pected here in Putnam, or else- where. The little talk that is heard indicates that the majority of work ers at Putnam, while hoping for larger and more substanuial incr are not completely dissatisfied. The men seem willing to accept the award and are continuing their work, in a spirit of resignation. _The Sunday school of the Second Congregational church enjoyed a pic- nic Thursday afterncen in Roseland park, on the shores of Roseland Lake, Woodstock. The members of the school were taken to Woodstock in busses which began running from the church at 1 o'clock. Shortly after two swimming was begun, after which in- formal athletic contests were enjoyed, including croquet, quoits and freak races. At 6 o'clock basket lunches were eaten and at seven there was a short song service, which took the place of the regular mid-week pray meeting. This was led by Rey. Boy ton Merril], pastor of the church. The committee in charge of the picnic was Walter J. Bartlett, Frederick W. Se- ward, Kenneth C. Sharpe, Gilbert Per- y, Mary Carpenter, Mrs. H. L.-Pease Clinton S. Andem, Miss Josephine Grosvenor and Miss Fannie Keller. At the camp of the Putnam Boy Scouts _in Bates Grove, at Wel 4 Lake, Wednesday night the guard in the second two-hour period was rather weary from mowing lawns in Putnam during the day, consequently fell asleep. As he was supposed to wake up the next guard, the camp went un- zuarded until dawn, as the guard slumbered peacefully. Thursday, was visiting day, and many parents and friends of the boys were at camp. it is net expected that visitors will stay long, for they will surely be eat- en up by mosquitoes if they do so. The mosquitoes are the only hindrance to ell and smudges, as well as mosquito netting the pests are being combatted. Many fashionable women in Paris recently offered their services to end a strike of workmen in that city. — e BORN. BUSHNELL—In Norwich, July 11, 1920, a son, Herbert Earle, to Mr. and Mrs. Herbert 1.
