Mr. Bullard is to be at the directors’ room ut the Danielson Trust company. There is widespread interest in the af- fairs of this company in Danielson, to which it is a tremendously important in- dustry and a big factor ‘in building up the prosperity of the borough and ct adjoining parts of the town of Kii during the past decade. Like thousands of other great induse tries its financial condition was impair- ed | nthe post-war slump of business. A year ago he had an indebtedness of $7,000,000, but a recent statement shows that this bas been reduced to $3.000,000. Recently, too stockholders of the com- pany have been informed in a statement by the committea that has had much to do with directing the conmipany's affairs during the past year that it w be nec- essary to raise a $1,000,000 as working capital by August 15, to which time the creditors’ agreement has been extend- ed Stockholders, here have been secking advice as to just what action they should -take in the situation mow con- fronting them. Mr. Bullard's visit here next Monday is intended to clear up much of the uncertainty that exists in the minds of some stockholders as to what their course of action should be and also will afford them an opportuni- ty to obtain all information that Is available relative to the company's af- fairs Radio fans—UV 201 vacuum tubes ALBERTUS F.

She was 87 years of age. Mrs. Cardwell was for many years a resident of the town of Brooklyn and was the widow of Winslow Cardwell. During recent years she had divided her time between her daughters, Mrs. Newell of Salem and Mrs. George Stone, of Acad- emy street, Danielson. It is time to consider making your regular monthly deposit in the savings department of the Windham County Na- tional bank, which pays interest on ail deposits made in its saving department from the first day of each month, if these deposits are made on or befare the fifth day.—adv. The proceedings of the state against Eric Welcher in the town court this morning promise to be brief. Welcher will be brought over from Brooklyn jail, the charge under which he is held there amended to a far more serious one and he will be put to plea. It is anti pated that his plea will be mnot guilty and the court here will find probable cause for holding him for trial at the superior court. Welcher will be repre- sented in court by his attorney, Charles L. Torrey of Putnam. Friday afternoon the fumeral of Law- rence Rainville, who died as the result of injuries he received when run over by a tip cart, was held from the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Adelard Rainville of the borough farm, with a service at St. James' church. Burial was in Holy Cross cemetery. The bear- ers were Phillas Viens, Ovid Guilmont, Edgar Lasnler and Viateus Guilmont. Louis E. Kennedy was in charge of the funeral arrangements.

A Webster young man who resisted a local officer who desired to remove him from a floor at a dance hall where the young man was engaging in objection- able dancing, was released after being held here for a time. Neither dance ‘managers nor the police look with any favor in this territory on the extreme Simian antics in which some are in- ciined to indulge this season, much to the disgust of other dancers and sup- pression of the style seems to be the idea of the hour. Only a comparatively small number of men in this territory will have to face wage reductions July 1, as the re- sult of the decision of the labor beard declaring in favor of a reduction of five cents per hour in the wages of track workers of the New Haven and other railroads. The reduction will amount to $2.40 per week in the case of each mem- ber of the section gang stationed here. | At this time each year this paper is asked to say something in favor of a series of band concerts on Davis park during _the summer period. This stems the day to say it, though, from experi- ences of recent years, there is nothing to ipdicate that the saying will help much. Danielson, as a community, has flunked on band concerts for several years past, though it has as pretty a park and as attractive a bandstand as is to be found in any community of its size in southern New England. One of the things connected with grad- uation that holds no particular appeal for the average pupil with a mind set on the pleasures of a summer long vaca- tion is the final examinations. These are scheduled for next week in the pub- lic schools of Killingly. For the puplls much depends on how they meet these tests, in some instances, the eighth grade pupils realize, the important mat- ter even of being allowed to graduate.

Remi Delage Friday. Mr. Bonneville says the men came to his place Thursday afternoon and asked to be served with ice cream. HBaving eaten this they inquired if they might inspect the refrigerator and were told that they were at liberty to do so. Then followed @ morg or less close inspection of the store and the arousing of a sus- picion in the mind of Mr. Bonneville that they were prohibition enforcement officers. Ordering more ice cream and soda they engaged in a conversation with the pro- prietor and eventually there was some talk about moonshine and Jamaica ginger. Beating them to it, Mr. Bonne- shine to sell and they countered he says, by offering to sell him ‘real whiskey” at $11.50 per quart. Then they inquired whether he had Jamaica ginger for sale and were informed that he had not; that the stuff was not carried in the stock The strangers, large men, loitered about and talked more or less about prohibition contraband, but Mr. Bonneville says they at no time declar- ed themselves to be prohibition official The matter was not reported to the po- lice until too late to permit the officers to interview the men.

A telegram recelved here Friday morning announced the safe return to her owner in Hollywood, Cal, of the Boston terrler, Sadle Louise, who was sent east to this city for breZeding dur- ing the past month. On the trip east the little dog fared well and arrived here in good condition and Friday's telegram indicates the same good luck on the re- turn trip. The little visitor from the Pacific coast was bred to Haggerty's King, one of the blue ribhon winners in the kennel of Mrs. George E. Dresser of this city and owner of some of the finest Boston terriers in the world. The interesting information comes from Berlin to friends in this city that teacn ers who would command $1800 to $2,000 a year in the schools of this country are working in Germany today for the equiv- alent of 25 cents per day in United States money. Miss Lena Borhaeur, formerly a teacher in Putnam High school, now resident in the German capital, is nat- urally interested in the school system over there and has learned that the compensation for teachers of the $2,000 class in this-country is as pitifuliy small as herein noted, and they are excellept teachers, too. Here, then, is one evidence of what the war has meant to Germany. At their home at 22 Farrows street on Friday, Mr. and Mrs. Bertrand N. An- drews observed the silver anniversary of their wedding and received the felici- tations of many friends. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews were married June 2, 1897, g the Congregational church parsonage in Pomfret. Mrs. Andrews had been a resi- dent of Pomfret while her husband iived in Woodstock. After their marriage the couple lived in Pomfret, Norwood, Mass., Providence THE BROOKLYN and East Woodstock.

C., Jerome, mem- ber of the senior class Putnam High school, Alice, John and Llewellyn. - In the happy observance of their 25th wedding anniversary Mr. and Mrs. An- drews recalled the thrilling experience that marked their tenth anniversary. At that time they were living in Woodstuux and during the night, while the members of the household all were ‘asleép the house caught fire and was burning fierce- ly when Mr. Andrews was awakened by the crackling of the flames. All of the members of the family escaped uninjured, but most of the family possessions were destroyed in the fire. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews received their guests Friday afternoon from 3 until 5 o'clock and in the evening from 7 to 10. They received numerous beautiful gifts. 4 careful moterman with childfen of his own brought his car to a full stop on Grove street just before the noon hour Friday to avoid running over a girl of about ten years who was bound that she would recover her ball from between the car tracks whether she met with an accident or not. The incident ‘was another illustration af the frequency with which motor vehicle operators and others figuring in fast moving traffic have to guard against children who are not forbidden to play ball in busy street and who do so at the risk of life itself.

But Sher- iff Bill Garfield became his friend on first - sight. day he said: “Listen. You ain't half as bad as you In fact I don't figure you out as 2 ‘bad’ man at all. Who gave you the idea you was bad?” The kid looked at the ponies and said nothin'; whereupon the sheriff proceeded: “To be perfectly rank, I imagine as how you thought Some woman was wonderful and she turned out all rotten.” “You know too darned much!” shouted the kid, hitting the ponies a lick that made them wake up somewhere else. But the kid took life pretty calmly when it was calm at all, and when it wasn't—he was a “bearcat!” Hoot Gibson is the star of The Bearcat, the Universal attraction at the Strand theater Sunday night.

More than 320,000 feet of film were exposed during the making of Foolish Wives, the million dollar picture which will be shown for the last time today.
