Some time since a local banking house sent out what is known in trade channels #s a trick advertisement, The bank set torth some interesting figures relative to how money might be made on a goose farm. The figures and the prospect were highly alluring, but the advertisemen: reaily emrried a moral and some sound business advice. Among other things, thls particular advertisement has dem- onstrated to the bank that it pays to advertise, as witness the following reply trom a well know Putnam business man, whoce name to serve the purposes of this narrative may remain as signed: Deer trus company you bull what i seen say you have some gose egs to sel.

Yours truly, ROSE PAPINAULT Semething of the protective value to the property of the borough that is stires up inside the powerful pumper of the Cap- win Put engine was displayed to num- bers of Interesteq taxpayers who saw brought into service Tuesday night ngainst a fire that was consuming the house of Frederick Wood on Green Hol- low road. ‘Without a doubt the house would have been barned to the greund were it nol for' the efficlent work - of the pumper which subdued the fire and left the house In condition no worse than will permit ¢f repairs being promptly made. Inside the borough lines where there Is a hydrant system the fire at the Wood place would have been very promptly snuffed out, In one particular instance, however, the pumper had to get ity sup- ply of water from a brook, running 20 teet under the roadway on which the big machine stood. There was a delay in rigging the suction pipes for the unusual service, but once the pumper got into action the fire did not last long. The big motor drove a stream that oame to the nozzle with such force after traweling through 850 feet of hoss as to rlp shingles off the roof of the dwelling and, that was the demonstration of power and efficlency that Danielson property owners may depend upon to protect their holdings n caso of fires here. The borough cer- :ainly owns a wonderful piece of fire ap- paratus in the Captain Put-engine, and the cost of the blg machine seems mere- ly incidental compared with the protec- tion that it Is capable of rendering against destructive fires. And in passing, it seem that there wil! be no harm in again directing the the attention of the public to the chances the members of the fire dcpartment take They tight fire like a paid department— taking all the necessary risks and ox- posure—working as valiantly as thouw engaged in an effort to save their own property. What the borough pays the men of the department is not sufficient pe: Individual In a year to purchas: a ®ait of clothes. Yet ths public in many instances is prone to forget the service rendered and to pass up without a sec- and thought occasional opportunities to @7 something in aid of the department, wiiich deserves every consideration. Having ravaged numbers of woodland areas during Tuesday in town in this section of the county, the fire god took a day off Wednesday. This week's exper- lence with forest fires—the most destruc- tive hereabouts in several—has again brought appeals from owners of woodland that the newspapers give publicity to a request for extreme care with matches cigirettes, pipes and cigars by those wihe go aflelo these beautiful spring daye One careless act may result in damage that msy figure into thousands of dol- lars.

While there were mo ferest fires in this vicinity during Wednesday, Broklyn did not get off so easlly. A fire that broke cut in territory adjacent to the fair- grounds of the Windham County Agri- cultural soclety swept up to the highway bordering the easterly s'de of the fair grounds and was held therg by a band of fire fighters. First reports that came to some of the officlals of the agricultural soclety were that the cattle sheds at the falrgrounds were afire. They were not, but easiiy might have been excepting fur the efforts of the firefighters. Checked at that polnt the firé swept southeastward, burning through wood- lan territory and eating its way in th @irection of Balley's woods. Some cord wood was destroyed jn one section vis- ited by the fire. .

According to the police, the public parking place at the corner of Front and South Main streets is not patronized. The congestion ‘on the streets in the business section is not being relieved as hoped. The situation is becoming such as to be dangerous, especially on Saturday nights. when fromt two to three hundred cars are parked on the main streets. Now that the city ordinances ar ebeing revised It is suggested that the matter be taken care of and on the narrower streets park- ing be forbidden or a time rmit fixed Front street at the junction of Livery street, according to the officers, is one of the most dangerous places in the city when the streets are filled with parked cars.
