‘alter Kies, morning at 1.0 at his parents’ home on Broad street. The young man's. death| is an unusually pathetic occurrence and comes as a shock to this ‘community, where he had lived all of his life. He was critically {ll only a few days and the seriousness of his condition was not realized outside the family circle and by| ¥ 2 few neighbors and friends. When the service battery of the 1924/ Field artiflery, in which he was enlisted as a meéchanic, went south July 1, Mr. Kies was one of thoss who made the trip to Camp Fustis. The excessive heat and peculiarly flavored water at the camp did not agree with him and he was allowed to return hers, Even after he returned to Danielson he did not appear_serjously ill, though m- mediately Went under a physician’s care. Last week he became suddenly worse and by Saturday his condition was re-| garded as extremely critical, practically aH hope of his recovery being abandoned fter Sunday. His death, nevertheless, came as a dlstressing happening, his youth accentuating the loss that felt by the public in general. The flag on the state armory here was 2t half-mast Tuesday as a mark of re- &pect to Mr. Kies, whose funeral ser- vices will be attended by members of the service battery. A number of years ago Mr. Kles suf- fered a serlous attack of iliness and at the time his recovery was despaired of, -though he rallled and eventually be- came, apparently, as well as the ave- rage person and was steadily engaged either with the Larkin Reed company. with which firm he was assoclated at the time of his death, or as an automo- bile mechanic at local garages. Mr. Kies was born ip this town, Dec. 15. 1898, son of Walter E. and Susan (Boswell) Kies, and had always lived here. He leaves his parents and a sis- . Miss Selma Kies He was a mem- A. F. and A. M. and Orient Jodge, K. of P.. and of the Service Battery, 1924 field artillery. Two projects In which the public is interested are to be undertaken—the construction of the public comfort sta- tions at the town hall property and the rebuilding of the footbridge over the Assawaga. river. mear the state armory property. Appropriations, for both have been made available at town meetings, The bridge project has been held up by the high water in tha wver, due to the excessive rains of May and June, months that brought a record fall of water for corresponding periods of the year., Work on the piers cannot be suc- cessfully undertaken while the river re- mains at its present level. but the stream is now receding and advantage will be taken of the first opportunity to get at the job, First Selectman John A. Gilbert sald Tuesday. If the river does not get down to a level low enough to permit of work being undertaken soon, temporary repairs will be made to the bridge so it can be used by pedestria Tt is expected that work will begin within a few days on the construction of the comfort stations. These are to be built across the driveway at the southerly side of the town hall building, next to the Dexter: block, the driveway being closed by the construction work. Work s continuing on the state aid Mghway being built on the town farm road, so-called, leading southward from Attawaugan to Dayville Four Corners. Grading has advanced at the present Yme to a point opposite the town farm property. It is a matter of imterest now, as the bown approaches the end of its financial year, the end coming Jply 31, that there is a prospect of Killingly again showing| 2 reduction of its indebtedness, as was! the case last year. With the prospest of escaping both a state and county tax during the coming financial year, it may be possible to fufther reducs the tax rate, Colloctors representing the strikers the Aldrich Manufacturing company :: Moosup are making regular weekly vi itations to Danielson to ‘obtain contribu- tions to aid them in winning the strike. Aside from the fact that objection is being made to thelr soliciting on the mill property of other companies, their work! here is being done without protest from any one. It is of interest, however, to note that they are seeking help nof work- ers who have stood a 22 1-2 per cant. cut, over and above what the Moosup. strikers have had to stanq and are working five hours more each week than the Moosup strikers, who represent thet: chief grievance to be worling conditions ind a desire for recognition of union. s "decision to advise the workers to back to work was made Tuesday, the ecision arrived at after he had ex- hausted ' every conceivable rea of ‘bringing dbout an "adjustment of the sit- uation and afrer personal with scores of strikers and: members” of their ‘families, His decision’ was made ywn, Tuesday to the strike leaders, who were ‘told that each and every man was to make his own decision as to what e should “do. , It is sensed that the strike has arrived at a crucial stage. This has led to the positive ‘decision of a pastor wio is be- his influence on the side of a quick ad- Justment of what is 'a very serious in- Moosup from incalculable financial losses, ,to be felt more or less by every. resident of the community. % * Father - McCarthy i8 by no means in- tending to_coerce workers into returning to. their employment.

He is in-pos- session of much ' information pertaining to the strike that is not known to the average person, this information glean- ed from being in such intimate touch with it from its inception, and knowing what he ‘does, he has decided that his advice to the workers who are members of his parish will be that they return to their employment next Monday, The strike leaders, to-whom he has been a great ‘aid as a medium In keep- ing in touch with miNl officials, are fully informed of his intention. It may be reiterated here that the strike of 700 workers is not over wages. but in an effort to. secure recognition of the union and over grievances growing out of working eandxfitm.z _Mr, and Mrs. George Gates, John Ma- hegn~ ick.

PUTNAM Putnam has not yet solved - the prob- lem of collecting’ garbage. Upon applica- tion of Peter-A. Gardner, city health of- ficer, the common council has passed an ordinance whereby ail -householders are obliged to keep garbage in a non-leak- | able, odorless and tight receptacle. The ordinance is in effect and will be enforc- ed by the health officer, who reports bad conditions in some sections of the city. Taesday was one of the hottest days of the summer. Thermometers on Main street crowded the 100 degree mark and business was practically at a standstill. Farmers are busy getting'in a late crop of hay, the lateness due to the numerous rains of the past month. Putnam is to have Dand concerts every ‘Wednesday evenirg. This has been brought about by the merchants’ com- mittee of the Putnam chamber of com- merce. Wednesday evening - the stores are ope nand it is believed that the con- certs will not only be appreciated by the citizens, but will serveto attract people to the city from the mearby towns and villages. At'a special town meeting held in the municipal building, Monday evening, $30,000 was appropriated for an addition to the Israel Putnam school. L. H. Fuller acted as chairman. Mrs. Jane C. ‘Warner, member, of the town _school committee, outlined the necessity for the addition,. stating that the building was overcrowded, that in some rooms were 40 to 50 pupils, when 30 to 35 is the standard and that some of the children going to school not being proficlent - in nglish made it imperative that more time be devoted to them. Mrs, Warner put the motion for the appropriation and the vote was passed without opposition: Byron D. Bugbee, Alexander Gliman, Ray Bosworth, Henry J. Thayer and Silas M. ‘Wheelock were appointed a building com- mittee. The plan of a proposed addition by Architect Philip L. Sunderland , of Danbury, was shown. The plan if adopted will give four additional rooms with” extra room in the basement. A few weeks ago, deeds were passed where- by the town became)the owner of the land to the south of the present school building. This is declared by members of -the school committee a valuable ac- ‘quisition to the school property as it as- sures the maintenance of a proper play- ground. ‘The building committee is au- thorized to immediately have sécifications drawn up and the contract.for building submitted to bids. It is hoped to have the work started by September 1st. With the completion of the proposed addition the problem of caring for the increasing number of pupils Will be taken care of for some years to come. Rev. Charles Bedard, of S§t. Mary's church, also has plans under way for the enlargement of St. Mary's school and it is expected that building will be in progress at this'school before long. When the thirty thousand dollars appropriated by the town is at hand for use is is ten- tatively. proposed to have this appear as 2 swparate fund in the annual budget and to-make provision to have this debt liqui- dated in three to five years. There has been proneness in financing the town's affairs to make appropriations and then to make no provision for liquidation. This method has caused the debt of the town to increase slowly until at present it has ‘become’ a substantial burden. Many of the citizens interested in town affairs express the belief that it is time to call a halt i nthis regard and to make provision for liquidating each additional debt as soon as that debt accrues. . - Mrs. James M.
