Monday no other statement than that the com- pany's claims of being pleased with the day's results was mere ‘propaganda” 1ould be obtained. Superintendent Hichardson said Mon- fday afternoon that there is not a par- ticle of truth in the story circulating . Moosup during the day that the com- pany had posted notice of a reduction in wages, No such notices have been posted, Mr. Richardson declared, and no such action has been contemplated. He characterized the story as mere Dfo- paganda intended to strengthen the strikers in their determination to stay jut. However, he feclared himself as cery well pieased with the results ob- tained during the day and over the pros- ect of even more satisfactory gains to- fay (Tuesday), The company remains as firm as pdamant against any recognition of the anion, the main issue of the strike. All was as quiet and orderly in the vi- sinity of the Union mills during Monday 2s on any other day of the strike, As mear as can be ascertained by ® canvass of those who have returned tallots in the poll that is being made throughout the United States by a New York publication to determine the at- titude of the people toward the eight- eenth amendment and the olstead act, Danielson remains a ‘“wet” community by about two to one. Up to the present time practically mo one excepting telephone subscribers have received ballots from the lot of 10.- 000,000 eventually going into every state n the Union, the telephone directory having been used for a miiling list, Others in many walks of life whé are without telephoues will get ballots la- ter and the opportunity to vote one way or the other. Inquiry of many here who have voted and a check-up from confl- dential sources would findicate the bor- sugh's vote =o far to he about two L0 ene against the Volstead act as it now stands. The vote here is not near be- ing complete, however, Some time since, an ftem appeared in this column about a Young and ' thor- oughbred wolf hound that Michael Lon- 2o purchased in Toronto. As the animal is not allowed 4t liberty it was neces- sary to devise some means of allowing him sufficient exercise and still to keep him at home. A friend of Mr. Longo suggested that a heavy wire be run from the Longo stables on- Water street to another building fronting Main street on the Longo property. A loop attached to a long rope reaching to the ground was to be placed over this wire so that the dog cowld run about the yard. The scheme appealed to Mr. Longo and it was carrled out—only to lead to disas; ter. Mr. Hound was so’ delighted with his additional liberty that he promptly proceeded to show romping abilities and l it may|unheard of.

When Prest arrived he was assigned to a room formerly occupled by another farm haud, now Mr. Longo is looking for a bricke layer to do a bit of a job for him. Streets that were oiled last week in| the borough and have since been raked over to remove small stones in the gravel used to cover the oil are now de- veioging a fine: dust-free surfacing that is appreciated by all who live along the thoroughfares that have been treated. A suggestion was made Monday by Henry Lague that trout fishermen in this territory take action with a view to securing cans of trout fry for distri- bution in brooks hereabout. If this is to be done, interested fishermen will have to give the matter attention at once. During Monday there was little change in the serious condition of George Kies, who is seriously ill at his home on Broad street, John C. Vincent of Fall River return- ed home Monday, after visiting friends in Danielson for a few days.

When Swanson's clothing was removed a pair of Prest's shoes were removed by mistake. - When Prest went to Swanson’s room to get the shoes he again saw the watch and chain. Not meeting the requirements of his em- ployer, Prest was told Saturday night that his services.would be no longer re- quired. ~Sunday morning he left the place and he took Swanson's watch with him. The police were notified and with- in an hour had Prest' under arrest at ‘Webster. In court, Prest told the pudge that he thought he could get to Worces- ter before the theft was discovered. He said that smce he was seven years ot age until he was 21 he had been in charge of the Massachusetts state board of char- ities. The :man seemed "to be of less than normal intelligence and did not fully realize his position. He had fifteen dol- lars with him, paid the fine and promised to leave Putnam for good. An aeroplane passed over Putnam Sunday afternoon fiying very low. To those ‘who saw the plgne it appeared to drop gradually as it neared the city and it looked for a time as if the aviat- or was looking for a landing place. The engine seemed to be running smoothly and soon the aircraft that came from the south headed to the east, in the direction of Providence. % Eilghty-one shares of the 14th serles of the Putnam Building and Loan asso- ciation have been sold to date. The as- sociation has been in existence six and onhe-half years and has passed the $100,- 000 mark, having assets at present of $115,000. The total paid to sharehold- ers who have withdrawn their shares amounts to $23,194.73. Shareholders to the number. of 58 have been assisted in buying and building homes and more applied but had had to walt as all funds have been dispersed. The earnings for the last six months amount to $5,110.16 with expenses of $215.08. The dividend declared in June amounts to $2,527.43. The biggest crowd of the season was on Main street grounds Sunday afternoon and saw the Nightingale-Morse, Inc., baseball team defeat, in a ten inning contest, the Cleveland Colored Giants, a nall-engro team that is now in the east playing independent ball. The score was 8 to 7. By all odds it was the best exhibition ‘of the national game that has been given here this year, and although the playing time was over two and a half hours. there was never a dull” mo- ment. Both teams were playing high grade ball, with Putnam having a shade of advantage in nearly all phases. The locals nicked the invading pitchers for fourteen hits, mcludiyg two .doubles by DeForest and one by/Faucher. The Gi- ants nocked off eleven safeties, with a pair of doubles by G. Arthur and a single one by Rhodes. Of the nine er- rors. in the game. the Nightingale in- field was responsible for four, the most disastrous of which came in the fourth when Maher, at short jazzed up: a grounder that Campbell had.shot into his territory. This play, resulted in two runs for the visitors. Auger, the Putnam left flelder, con- tributed the most spectacular play of the afternoon, and thereby probably saved the game for Putnam. With two out, and a runner at, second and: third Rhode . drove a line fiy hetween center and left, Auger dashed for' it, and pulled it in while travelling at top speed, thus retiring the Giants. Hatchett, -the Gi- ants’ second corner. representative, also saved his team mates from a bad hole when in the fourth inning he shot up into the air and pulled down a liner from Maher's bat. Throughout the game there was consld- erable dissatisfaction expressed both by players and the fans at some.of the de- cisions of the umpires. In the fifth the baseball was abandoned temporarily while the players and Umpire Stephen held an informal debate. - The. Giants claimed he had changed a declsion which prevented their batter from walking to first. . In the fifth LaChepelle, who was i Biving decisions on the bases, called Nel- son safe'at third on a slide play.-This started _trouble which calmed down only when LeCheppell agreed to leave the game from then on, Stephen made all de- cisions. While it may be true that the umpiring was not up to scratch, neither team had any advantage for 'the alleged adverse decisions were evenly _divided.

FOR CARE OF HORSES 4 IN SUMMER WEATHER Especial attention is being given by the officers of the Connecticut Humane society to the protection of animals dur- ing.the summer months. To horse own- ers and drivers the following sugges- tions are offered to add to the comfort of the work horse during the hot weath- er: . Give extra and frequent rest on hot days. Feed lightly and rest.iell at noon- fme, Rest your horse by removing harness and collar. Leave him standing in the shade un- less overheated. Avoid overloading; work moderately. In traveling long slowly. Water at short intervals and not to excess. Tt exhausted by heat, cool the head with ice. 4 Give a cool bath, a good bed and plen- ty of air at night.

Avold high checks; onably, if at all.: Protect your horse from torment In fly-time. Proper shoeing protects the feet from hot pavements. Apply. wet clay or water compress to fore feet at night. Try the virtue of a bran mash or green grass weekly, Let the poorer horse of a team set the pace. Good care at night will make up for a hard day.

ANNOUNCEMENTS Vera Gordon Is Seen at Her Best in Lat. est Picture, “Your Best Friend, t the Strand. ‘Who is your best friend? The answer to that question was solved last night at the Sgrand theatre, where the latest Vera Gordon film, “Your Best Friend.” was shown to an enthusiastic audience. There may be hundreds of people who will believe that their best friend is a dog, a sweetheart, etc., but the search- light for most of us is always directed toward our mothers. For she, above all others, is the one best friend at all times. The presentation of .the Gordon film only served to recall this very pleasant fact. It is an interesting and aito- gether worth while attraction, and in its scope it presents a sadly neglected phase of motherhood. There is nothing spec- tacular about the picture but rather an intimate study of a widow who gives and loves and sympathizes with he two sons until she is on the verge of ruin, men- taily and financlally. The plot is woven about a son who married a soclety crazed girl without his mother's knowledge. He brings her quite unexpectedly to his home, and the mother in welcoming her with open arms notes the aloofness and cold stare at the furnishings of the modest home. The of Lord Mountbatten, cous and i WOMEN GROWING BULKY, RETURN TO CORSETS No matter what the flapper may do, the refined woman knows that she needs a proper corset to oonceal either curves or angles. Even the most slender wo- man requires a stylish foundation for her costume, simple or elegant though it be. The woman shapeless with too much flesh, or her gister inclined tc bones, can acquire a fine figure through the right medium—a good corset. “But don’t buy a corset hap-hagzard!" warn- ed Madame O. W. Bowley, expert cor- setiere, who is demonstrating Bon Ton Corsets at Caron's Specialty Shop all this week. “Be fitted to the corset which gives you the straighter lines, distributes the flesh properly, supplies the proper support—in_a word, the corset meant for your own figure! That is the way to avoid sagging muscles, wearled back, and the other evils which Jeading medi- cal ‘authorities claim the. right corset presents” Mdme. Bowley is giving her expert. attention to fitting buyers with the standard makes of the Royal Wor- cester Corset Co., models in white or pink, of brocade or coutil, white or pink designs in special “bridal corsets,” etc. This season the elegant Bon Ton mod- el sells at from $3.50 to $10, the Royal Worcester from $1 to $7.50 and the Ad- justo—favorite of stout women—at $5 $6.50 and §7. Drop in and comsult Mdme. Bowley about corset matters, and inspect the new styles. Shocked at their spreading figures, women are coming back to wearing corsets; mow ls the time to Buy the best models. =95 o Breed Theatre.

The produ momt ion searching the foremcst country and Europe befare thev came uson Strongheart, the Belgian police hound who takes the role of Flash In the picture. Flash is a cross between doz and wa'f, and the development of the picture shows the two strains in him struggling for mastery. Because human domina- tion becomes intolerable he breaks his chains and goes to the mountains where he mates with a full blooded wolf. In the end, however, the human in- stinct withstands. When he senses that the human beings who claimed his affec- tions are in danger, Fash returns to the fold in time to effect a thrilling rescue. While the police dog, as a distinct novelty in motion pictures cails for un- usual attention from audiences, the story is edmirably acted by an all-star cast which includes: John Bowers, Kathryn McGuire, Willlam Dyer, James Mason, Nelson McDowell, E. J. Brady and Rob- ert Bolder. Other pictures on the bill include Lar- ry Semon in a brand new comedy, “Well Tll Be —" and the Pathe News. “Connecticut Yankee” Coming ito the Breed. How to present on the screem, with that marvelous spirit of fantastie hu- mor in which Mark Twain conceived it, the moving array of a gorgeously color- ed story—this was the task that con- fronted the makers of “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.” The result is a vivid realization of the oppor- tunities presented, and as the spectator sits in his theatre chair he is carried in a twinkling, from the rich appoint- ments of a luxurious Connecticut home of today back into the pictured panoply of medieval pomp and display. And to him the spectacle of knights in ar- mor, men and ladies-in-waiting, com- bats In tournament and deeds of chavalry and valor, is presented through the eyes of that laughter-loving, slang-sling- ing, hard-shelled product of Twentieth Century civilization, the Conneeticut Yankee, whose breezy personality per- vades and dominates the entire scene. ‘We root for him, fear him, fight for him mother, must ‘against her will and mere- ly to saisfy her son, moves from her and love with him—for through him humble surrounds to & nest among the elite.
