NORWICH BULLETIN, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1922 | DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS DANIELSON Smoking ruins onry remained :of the plant of the East Killingly Worsted com- pany Monday after the fire that started shortly after 8 o'clock Sunday evening had raged for hours, lighting the sky and showering sparks for a half mile or more about, endangering numbers of homes, but setting none of them afite. The fire simply raced through the mill and fed on whatever was combustible until it burned itself out. Not a hand was raised to check the fire, not because scores who were present were unwilling, but because of the futility that would be attached io the effort. A plentiful sup- ply of water was in the stream from which the mill derived some of its oper- ating power, but this could not be used to advantage as things were, the distance from the supply to the burning plant be- ing too great. ¥ Stark stone walls, rising four stories above the ground, and with smoke curl- ing out through the window openings stood up staunchly after the fire, and a man whose judgment is good in such mat- ters said Monday that, in his opinion, the walls for three stories up withstood the heat well. If the damaged top story stone is removed and the building re-roofed it will again be available for some manu- facturing nurposes. But the walls are all that remained of a mill that at one time many years ago gave employment to more than 100 people. The ruined mill had been fenced off by Monday afternoon and notices warning trespassers-tokeep off had been posted. { These precautions were taken to guard against inury to over-inquisitive persons who might be hirt in prowling about the ruins. A quiet but delightful wedding occurred in the afternoon at 1 o'clock on Thanks- giving day at_the home of Postmasfer and Mrs. W. Franklin Sheldon, Highland street, Moosup, when their daughter, Miss Qrace Lydia, was united in marriage to Lester Ray Craig, son of Mr. and M William J. Craig of Winter street, Dan- ielson. In the presence of only immediate rela- tives and amidst surroundings tastily dec- orated with evergreem and .chrysanthe- CUTICURA HEALS PIMPLES ON FACE VerySmall and Red.

Walter Honck, pastor of the Bap- tist church, Danielson, .the double ring service being: used. The bride was be- comingly attired in white brocaded Can- ton crepe with tulle veil and carried a shower bouguet of bride’s roses. The couple were unattended. Among the unsual incidents was the attendance upon' this happy occasion of Mrs. Ellen H. Codding, grandmother' of the bride, 80° years of age; Mrs. Anna Dexter, grandmother of the groom, 82 years of -age,’ grandfather of the bride, who is nearing the mark of_ three"score and ten. Following ‘the” marriage- ceremony, the party . was entertained at dinner, there being seated Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Shelon, Mr. and Mrs. William J. Craig, Mrs. An- na Dexter, Mrs. Ellen H. Codding, Misses Myra M. and,Hattie A. Codding, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Hazen, Willard W. Sheldon, Rey. J. Waiter Houck and the bride and groom. Both Mr. a.nd Mes.: Craig are young people, well and favorably: known in this and surrounding towns, where a wealth of congratulations and best wishes are being extended by many admiring friends. Here is nn important anmouncement: The annual effort to dispose of Red Cross Christmas seals is now in full swing in Danielson. To some this may seem like mighty uninteresting reading. but the fact is that it is about as important a subject as will be called during the Cheistmas season to the attention of-those who have any concern‘whatsoever for their suffer- ing_fellowmen. The seals are now on sale, and the country over these pretty little devices on the mail and Christmas packages of any man or woman are a mark of distinction, in that'they ars indicative of the good- ness of heart of thase who' use them that some wan and wasting human béing may have a-chance of régained health and the | pursuit of happiness. Here in Danielson 85 per cent. of ‘the money obtained'from’the sale of ‘the seals goes into the hands of the Civic federa- tion -for use in maintaining its tubercu- losis climic, which has been of great aid to many sufferers, and will continue to be if- a geperous public does not forget in this Christmas period. ‘The attention ‘of the public is directed to the fact that W. S. Brown is con- tinuing to- deliver ‘milk from a_tubercu- lin tested herd to consumers in Danielson for 10 cents per quart.—adv. TUpwards of - 200 patients have been treated in a year.by the Civic federation's clinio. - The federation buys ' eggs and milk .for tuberculac patients who them- selves cannot afford these commodities, even to aid them through,a death-threat- ening sickness. - The federation has pur- chased as high as 1.500.quarts_of mikk in a year for patients. Those who would bave the. federation keep up thig.humani- /| tarian work will’buy seals—buy them in great quantities. Buy. your Christmas seals today. Use them on all letters and packages. - You can help’' wonderfully if you will, and, those in charge of:the deive are hoping that you will not forget them. The ‘seals ‘are on sale in stores in the ‘boraugh and also are obtainable from n:hool children.

Their unpaid hotel bill amounts to $20, and the res- taurant claim against them amounts to an additional $25. A nearly new and valuable motor truck owned by Asa Passmore of. East Killingly was takeén out of the East Killingly ‘Wor- sted’ company’s garage, ‘where the 'ma- chine was stored, just prior to the fire of Sunday night, and Mr. Passmore has been congeatulated on his good fortune in sav- ing the \eh\cle . As showing"the density of traffic on the new state highway between Danielson and Providence, general mention- is being made of the fact that some man who happened' along in his car had to haul the ‘maching off the highway and volun- tarily install'himself as a traffic officer to straighten out ‘a_tangle of machines on Sunday at Chop Mist hill, where the new highWway cuts' across’ to Chepachet. At this juncture of two important state high- way' lines, a dozen miles east of Daniel- son, the traffic became so denmse as to finally tie itself'in a knot, and scores of cars were stalléd and others lining up. évery minute until the- self-appointed traffic officer straightened out the tangle. It ‘would- appear that a traffic officer is going to be needed at this busy point on Saturdays:-and Sundays,” when the trafic is-the- heaviest.of the week. A E. L.
