Sentiment of those who love trees and dislike to see them cut down has been vigorously expressed against the removal of the row of trees. On the other hand those who think of the safety of the treveling public point out that allowing the trees to remain will be to invite seri- ous accidents because of the narrowness of the clearance between the rows of trees bordering this street at this point.

PUTNAM Putnam afdl its representatives loom- ed large in the doings of the twenty-fifth convention of the union of French-Amer- ican clubs of Connecticut closed at Wat- erbury Memorial day. 3 The convention resulted in the clec- tion of former Representative Adslmor Brodeur as president of what is to be known 25 the Federation of Fraaco- American societies o Connecticut, while other Putnam men named for office are Rev. Charles F. Bedard, pastor of St. Mary's parish, chaplain; Dr. G. T. La- March, sécretary; Napoleon. Jette, ser- geant-at-arms. 5 - Also Putnam was selected as the city in which the mext convention of the federation is to be held. The highly developed and centralized interest in Franco-American affairs by French-speaking residents of this city Is held to be the reason for Putnam and its representatives recelving such recog- nation in the convenion. ~What they have achieved here is possible, it is neld, in many other communities in Connecti- cut, especially in the ecastern part of the state and particularly in towns along the Quinebaug valley, which nave a heavy percentage of French-speaking Ppopulation. Louls Blivckmar, 70, is dead at his home in the town of Thompson, having passed away on Memorial day. Although Mr. Blackmar was a native of Thompson, he had been a resident of Boston for years and for a long time was a state house employe, having charge of the.electrical equipment of the buflding. About two years ago he retired and returned to Thompson to live. He leaves his wife and two sisters, Miss Mary Blackmar and Mrs. John Bullard of Davenport, Ia. There is to be n conference of farmers at Baker's hall in Warrenville today (Thursday) that may result in a deci- sion to establish a co-operative cream- ery. This s of special interest in view of the faci that the creameries once dotting Windham county have practical- 1y all been closed, due chiefly, it is said, to the fact that milk producers found it either more profitable or convenient to ship milk to Boston or other citles than to put it\intc a creamery. Couuty Agent F. L. Davis is to attend the meeting, and in discussing it Wed- nesday he said that Warrenville seems to be the center of a field peculiarly suited to making a creamery venture con- venient and profitable. While a creamery might not be a good investment nor an attractive proposition in some sections of this county, this does seem to be true of the Warrenvllle territory. Mr. Davis says that he understands that owners of approximately 400 dairy cdws are inte- rested in the Warrenville creamery pro- position and that they will be represent- ed at today’s meeting. At present much milk comes out of the Warrenville terri- tory for shipment to Boston and quanti- ties o feream are supplied for Williman- tic and vicinity. 4 A Patnam man who was a Memorlal day visitor to a cemetery in East Thompson noted that a headstone at the grave of Jonathan Richardson has been knocked off its foundation and broken. Mr. Richar¥son was a well known char- acter in this territory many years ago. e fact that his headstope bears an inscription that runs something like this may or may not have had something to do with the fact that the stone is mow broken: “Who never sacrificed Reason to Sup- erstition’s God er Believed Jonah Swal- lowed the Whale.” The local man who looked at the broken headstone Memorial day says Adapted from “Passers By,” With RUBYE DE REMER, LEWIS S.

A contested divorce case that has aroused the keen interest of many citizens of the nelghboring town of Woodstock and the hearing of which likely will bring many of the mto this city is that of Marjorie M. Potter vs C. Allison Potter. The case is to be heard in the superior court here on June 15, and will be con tested. ~As contested divorce suits af- ford an opportunity for\those in-court to hear both sides of any story dealing with the desires of a couple to be legal- ly separated from each other, and as such cases are rare in this county, this -89 ‘uonueNE JupommyE §] uo aEopavd pedlally in Woodstock, where the prin- cipals have lived fof years and are well known. 5 Armand Bibeault, wha has practleally lost his sight as a result of having been gassed while in the service, has been a visitor here with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eustache Bibeault of Woodstock avenue. Mr. Bibeault Is receiving treatment at the Brooklyn, N. Y., naval hospital. ‘There is some hope, it was stated Wednesday, of the treatments pe i sreceiving at least partly restoring his sight. A thoughtful arrangement on the part of some one brought pleasure Memorial day to Sheriff George F. Holbrook, who has been confined by illness to his home on South Main street for the past wo and a half years. That he, a veteran of the Civil war, a veteran of arduous ser- vice and one who scfured’ a severe wound, might see the Memorial day pa- rade, its route was changed so that it would pass his home. To add to his pleasure the arrangement included hav- ing the band play as it marched past. Mr. Holbrook stood at, the window and watch- ed the passing line—a parade such as he has many times taken part in on Me- morial day. 0ld residents of Putnam recalled that it was forty years ago Wednesday that TUnion blogk was destroyed by fire. The fire broke out at two oclock in the morning. Among the firs€ to reach the fie engine house in Uhion square_were Dr. A. H. Strahan, a dentist, and .the late Edward G. Wright. According o these men it was found that the lock on the fire house had been plugged with tre ends of matches and the door had to be forced. The fire was thought to be of Incendiary origin. Two men were brought to trial and much damaging evidence was submitted connecting them with the fire. - Doubt of their guilt was raised ‘when the wives of both testified that each was at home and in bed that night. ‘The fire totally destroyed the largest block in the city, also damnged the Hotel Chickering, from which guests fled in their night clotfes. One of those suffer- ing a loss was the late A. W. Macdonald. Mr. Macdonald had been in Putnam and had bought the only weekly newspaper in the town at_that time—The Putnam Patriot. He Teft for Mount” Vernon, N. Y., the night of the 30th to get his family and move them to Putnam. While on the way the block was destroyed. He re- turned with his family June 1st and im- mediate steps were taken to assemble new " presses and while the first dition was greatly abbreviated, the Patriot car- ried a story of the fire in its second edition printed in the Hathaway, now the Elks' block. Forty years ago the only fire apparatus there are indications that It was delfb- in the town was the old.fashioned hand Travelogue — Educational Comedy Mat. at 2:30—Eve. at 7, 8:45— (Daylight Saving Time) COMING — “THE QUEEN OF SHEBA” pump. This was stationed at the Pond Hole on what is now a corner lot at Front and South Main streets. The reg- ular firemen becoming exhausted, volun- teers took their places, but the antiquated method of fire fighting was of slight ef- fect. Outside help was called and ap- paratus was sent from as far away as ‘Worcester, a special train being made up for the purpose. - The present Union Block was bui% as soon as the ruins of the old build- ing had -been cleared away. This was done as sson as the materfal had suffi- clently cooled to allow the work to pro- ceed. The first to occupy the new buil ing were the Patriot and Dr. A. H. Str han, the only present \temants wio moved into the building as soon as it was completed. County Agen F. L. Davis was at H: ton Wednesday evening to. meet Wi members of the Dairymen’s club at that place. Milk testing was the subject taken up at the meeting. : At Woodstock and in Pomfret shade trees that were so badly damaged in the ice storm of last November have mary of their scars covered by the foliage now out and some new sprouts are showing. The trees now have a better appearance than many would have belleved possible after vieving the hesy damage of last tall. Attorney Charles L. Torrey of this city has been retained to represent Rric Welcher, who is being held at Brooklyn jall in connection with the death of his wife, Mrs. Aura Welcher, and.who may have to face a charge of murder in the first degree. A light touring car bearing'a Califor- nla couple who have been touring for a year was In this city Wednesday morning. The car attracted attention because it and a Florida plate at the rear. The couple are going to tour New England before setting out for the Pacific coast, which they expect to reach late in the summer. A check-up of Civil war veterans now residents of Putnam shows that thelr ranks have thinned to a surprising de- gree. Onmly eight of them were m the Memorial day procession and only 1¢ are resident here. The list is: Anson Bu- chanan, Chauncey “Wrse, Josejh ZicKach- [nle, Marshall Kenyon, Thomas L.
