This was the first time that he had left Putnam since he became unable to leave his room or chair without assistance. But on presidential elections he insisted on going to the polls to vote and was carried back and forth in his chair, : S Soon after” he returned from Camp Devens, Lieutenant Moriarty was taken to Fort Banks, near Boston, where he has since been, his nurse, Miss Alma Martin, accompanying him. Last week congress passed a bill pro- moting Licutenant Moriarty to the rank of “captain with a captain’s pay. The bill was sponsored by Senators McLean and Brandegee of Connecticut and by Congressman Freeman. A vear aga State Treasurer G. Harold Gilpatric and Editor George L. Padgett, who is a personal friend of President Harding, whom he knew in Marion while engaged in news- paper work there, worked to secure the support of the senators and congressman for the bill which vitally concerned Lieu- tenant Moriarty. They also had the sup- port of General Hersey, a West Point classmate of Lieutenant Moriarty, and of General Harborton, Jthen chief of staff. George B. Christian, secretary to the president, also lent his aid when he heard the story and learned the history of the case of the young soldier.

Most of those who Come to this section of ‘Windham couaty for the summer months are from New York. Those with children are the first to leave. as they have to be at thefr homes when schools open. A number stay well into November, but the majority leave by the last of September. The short calendar session of the su- perior court on Friday will be at Willi- mantic instead of at Putnam. | 005 i, Sept. 20.—They were all here today, from every -town- and every hamlet in Windham county, and, by the same token, from various other counties and countless communities. This, of course, was brought about by the annual- exhibition of ‘the Windham County Agricultural society—the Brook- Iyn feir, and one who looked carefully at his ticket, especially if it happened to be an “Annie Oakley,” as was the case with the writer, would note that it was the 73rd annual fair, though no mention was made thereon that the agricultural society dates back over 100 years and is the oldest organization of /the kind 'in the United States. . There were some old timers on the grounds who have seen fairs thére since before the Civil war and still others so aged and enthusiastic as to almost con- meeting incorporating - the society, but these veterans were in -the minority when one considers that the day's at- tendance ran into the thousandsinclud- | ing several hundred fakirs, more or less, and that the old timers were fairly sub- merged in a sea of automobiles and .the early fall styles displayed by women all furnishing an interesting panorama as they strolled by dolled up in thelr fringed capes and advance modes in hats. . Nothing like that ever ‘came oft the farms in the good old days. But mes change, as do the styles, and this generation has me time to worry, much less speculate, over the why and where- fores of any given situation. The Brooklyn fair is good this year. Tt isn’t any better as an agricultural show than it has been for years past; in fact, it isn’t as good in’some respects, for there are certain handicaps now that never bothered the management in other {days. For instance, the fair secretary | twenty years ago never knew of there i being a fall down In the cattle show {end of the fair because of, or lack of, | tubereulin testing of cattle. It's all gif- ferent now. Owners of tested and tu- bercular free herds are not inclined to take any chances on mingling their cat- tle with untested cows, so the aristocrats of Windham county's herds were con- spicuous. by their ~ absence Wednesday. The effect of this was not so much a detraction from the splendid animals shown, as that it kept away-many other fine animals that ' might have - been shown and thereby have given ~a more accurate impression of what really is he- ing done in Windham county, along dairy lines. One can no longer judge by what is seen in cattle shows at county fairs of what the county farmers are doing. and this is too bad, for-the falrs ofter the one opportunity of. the year for the general public to be impressed. with S 3 & GRANGES MAKE BIG EXHIBITS AT BROOKLYN'S T73rd FAR that farmers' associations put out from time to time in thelr own interest and | in the interest of the primal industry as a whole.
