It seems pertinent at this time, in view of the railroad’s publicity against the practice. to call attention to the de- sirability of keaping off the tracks. At the home of his father, John R. Sieath, in East Killinely Wednesday aft- o at 3 oclock funeral services for Edward Robert Sleath were conducted by Rev. J. W. Carpenter of he East Killingly Unlon church.

Edward Ostrowskl may be released, un- der Bond, from the county jail at Brook- ly today (Thursday.) Ostrowski is the North Grosvenordale public service driver who is beld on order of Coroner Arthur G Bill pending 2 fuller investigation of the circumstances surrounding the accident in which Al Lundstrum, the wrestler, was %o tadly injured cn April 7 that he died In & Worcester hospital Monday after- soon. Ostrowski was committed to jail In default of a bond of $3,000. His wife whils here on Wednesday expressed the hope that she will have raised the money by today and thereby secure her husband's release. Elght slarms were responded to during April by the fire department. This is a record number for a month in this place. Not one of the fires did any serlous dam- Rge and they were mostly brush and grass fires. The first alarm for May groved something of a wild goose chase to the fremen. Welcome signs have been erected by the shamber of commerce on all state high- ways leading into Danielson. The signs are attractive and free from admonitions about speeding and threats of jail such as lrritate motorists as they come into many New England towns. The new signs ex- end & welcome without a warning and sre so painted that the traveler reads of Danlelson’s well wishes as he passes out of the borough. - Radlo fans who gathered at John Dowe's Tuesday evening listéned to a concert being broadcasted from Syracuse.

JOWLING AND FOCKET BILLIARDS TABLES DAY. County Coroner Arthur G. Bill of Dan- felson was in the superior court rooms, Wednescuy, and examined elght to ten witnesses of the accident which Tesult- ed in the death of the wrestler, Al Lund- strom, Monday night, in St. Vincent's hospital, Worcester. The hearing was behind closed doors. Some of the wit- nesses were passengers in the jitney bus driven by Edward Ostrowski of Wilson- ville, who was arrested following Lund- stronr's death and. taken to the county jail In Brooklyn. Mrs, Ostrowski came to Putnam expecting to see her husband. but he was not brought to this city. She had a short conference with Coroner Bill before the hearing and left for home to try to raise a bond that would set her husband at liberty. If the coroner finds sufficient evidence to warrant, the driver of the bus will probably be held on a charge of manslaughter. Captain of Police Remle Delage is to station an officer at the corner of Main and Umion streets during the summer months to see that no automobiles are parked on Union street. This, is a short street and an attempt is being made to reserve it for horse-drawn vehicles. Not- withstanding mee shiny yellow signs ap- prise the drivers of motor vehicles that their presence on the street is not de- sired motorists disregard the _instruc- tlons and park their vehicles. For some time it has been a serious problem what to do with horse-drawn vehicles and it was finally decided that Unmion street with its hitching posts was the logicai place to care for these out-of-town shop- pers. Signs not being sufficient an officer will be put on station to see if he ‘can carry out the wishes of the city officials. The Putmam city charter is to be re- vised. This is aomething that has been talked of for some years but to date no steps had been taken to have the work done. At a meeting of the commo council it was voted® “That the mayor be authorized to call together all of the law- vers who are voters of the city to see if they will act with the mayor, alderman- at-large and city clerk as a committee, without pay, to redraft the charter and ordinances of the city and submit the same to the mayor and common council for consideration. The mayor shall bs chairman and the city clerk shall be clerk of said committee, and the mayor Is authorized to incur any necessary ex- pense for typewriting. Said committee is requested to submit a redraft of the city ordinances as soon as possible, and to submit a redraft of the charter on or before the first day of October, 1922." The first meeting of the committee is called for Monday night next in the Windham county bar library rooms, in the court house block. A boy, small #°r his age, betweem 13 and fourteen, drove oft with the service car of the Motor Supply company during the noon hour, Wednesday. The police were notified and the last heard of the youngster he had passed through South- bridge, Mass., and was going strong. A member of the corporation said that the tank of the car was well filled with gas- oline and if the Jittle chap was not stop- ped or met with no accidents he could easily reach New York state, How the boy ever started and operated the car is a mystory. The police believe they have the lad’s name and expect to hear from him somewhere along the route to- ward the wooly west. The car was left near the sorvice station of the company. A man stood near it and saw the boy about. The lad told % man that some- oune wiched to, see him and the man left. This gave the youngster his oppor- tunity. He drove the car over some ledges back of the service station, thence to Water street. The rest was clean sailing and apparently he sailed, for he had reached a point fifteen miles or more away before his trajl was picked up by telephone. The police are sur- prised that such_gz little fellow at the wheel of a large ¢ar did not attract some person’s attention who would stop him and make inquiries, Two automobiles came together at the corner near the Sacred Heart church In West Thompson, Tuesday evening. Both cars were running slowly and the whole damage amounted to less than fifty dol- lars. The cars were owned by Emile Heminway and Peter Labonte, both of Putnam. The Heminway car had a bent mud guard and running board after the collision and the Lebonte car lost a wheel and had a bent axle, Announcement is made of the engage- ment of Miss Beatrice Holt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton Holt of New York and Woodstock, to Brandeth Sy- mond, Jr., of New Yoik.

Putnam did not play its usual snappy game and were unable to connect at bat when hits meant runs. Worcester showed a_snap- py infleild. The game developed two home runs, ome by Nelson of Putnam and the other by Hanson of Worcester. Both were long clouts into the deep part of left field. At its meeting Tuesday eveming the common_councfl went on record as fa- voring daylight saving and recommend- ed its adoption Morday, May 8th, in the hopes that the citizens generally will co- operate in the plan.

There will be a communion service ai the Sunday morning service at the United them ahead, but of opening “business vlllll:e! an hour earlier.” Agent Robert W Boys, of the Manhasset Manufacturing Company, spoke in favor of thé change. He alluded to Massachusetts and Rhode Tsland -being on daylight saving time as well as many of the cities in the state. In order to get shipments it was neces- sary for his factory to begin operations earlier, ag tralng were now running an hour earlier. State Treasurer G. ‘Harold Giipatric said that he could see no rea- son for opposing’ the change. Charles A. Thayer understood that the school committee woyld be willing to chanze the time of school. Alderman John G. Johnson expressed himself in favor of the change, principally on the ground that it would bring about harmony and make more convenient relations with border states and with nearby towns ‘where the new time has been adopted. letter from the Windham County Farm- ers’ Association was the only expression opposed. The committee ‘members who sent the communication stated that they wished to vigorously oppose the change and suggested that if such action was taken it might effect the mercantile bus- iness of the city. It was voted to hold a special city meeting May 16th to see I the citizens will authorize the council to appropriats the sum of $800 for sprinkling the streets with ofl or water and to see if the city will appropriate the sum of $600 for the purchase of a site for a fire station at the corner of Providence and Church streets, A letter from the Woman's Relief Corps called attention to the fact that there was no flag for the flag pole at the Soldiers' Monument and that the pole was sadly in need of fresh paint.

ANNOUNCEMENTS “Cardigan,” The Great American Picture Opens at Broadway Theatre. “Listen my children and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere. You won't exactly hear it but you will see it enabted in scenes that will make your blood tingle with joy that you are American, when you see Pa ride, only as an incident in “Cardigan,” Amer- ica’s first big historical feature motion picture ever made on American soil, which opens at the Broadway theatre to- day. “Cardigan” is from the well known story by Robert W. Chambers, America’s best known writer of novels and tells one of the most romantic stories ever filmed. The love story threads its way through the early period of the American Revolution and is said to be the most amazing film of realism ever enacted on the screen. It his been reported that when it-was shown for the first time in this country at the Capitol theatre, in New York city, the world's largest motion ploture theatre, the first night audience stood on the chairs and cheered themselves hoarse for ten minutes. It tells the romantic love story of a youthful pair which threads its way through the outset of the American Rev- olution and leads you right into the high spots of the early American history pe- ribd. - All the well known patriots are Norwich torically famous through their activities in the Revolution. John Hancock, he of the large bold signature, who lived to display that signature on the Declaration of Independence, is seen in all his simple: glory, while Patrick Henry electrifies the audience with his famous speech which <contains that'never to be forgotten lin “Give me Liberty or give me Death” Then there is the Paul Revere incident, showing this thrilling scene from start ‘o finish, with not one detail missing.
