"6 DANIELSON AND DANIELSON Wednesday evening the monthly meeting of the S. N, E. Telephone Com- pany Employes’ association was held in Pellett’s, hall. Following a business meeting at 8 o'clock the remainder of the evening was devoted to social di- versions. There was a period for danc- ing and refreshments of cake, coffee and sandwiches were served. At 11 o'clock Wednesday morning the fire department was called to Broad and Franklin streets to extinguish a chimney fire at the home of Altdn Eld ridge. ~The fire, for. this variety, was one of the most stubborn with whIcK the fire department has had to deal for 2 long time, but it was extingu without any great damage being to the dwelling or its contents, Danlclson was swopt by a near-gale during all of Wednesday, the north wester giving this communit ythe se son’s first taste of old-fachioned wint weather.

At this time 1t appears fortunate that more structures were not set afire by blazing embers that drifted away from the burning Whitestone mill at "East Killingly Sunday night. Since the fire harred pieces of wood that must have seen red hot when they came to the rround after drifting away from the ire have been found as far away as the Bartlett cemetery, on the heights a balf mile from the fire. Other indica-i tions of such drift have been found in| Mifferent localities equally distant from the fire. A meeting of the chamber of ecom- merce has voted to refer to the griev- Rnce commnittee the subject of gas and electric meter minimum charges by the Peoople’s Light and Power company. This subject recently has been receiving attention in different cities of the mate,| including Putnam, where a demand has been made for the elimination of theso charges. It may be anticipated that the grievance committee will give care- ful comsideration to the subject, avout which more likely will be heard later. The gas rate in Danietson is $2.60 per thousand cubic feet. The charge for electric lighting is 17 cents per K. W. hour for the first 50 hours or less, 15 cents for the next hundred K, W. hours and all in excess at 13 cents, Miss Vitaline Bousquet, 67,” died on Wednesday morning about 4 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kertfiaume Sr, in Dayville, where she had been living.

Colcord, a cattle dealer of West ‘Woodstock, has appealed to the superior court of the county from a fine of $25, and costs of $72.14, imposed on him in Justice Luther J. Leavitt's court in the town of Woodstock upen being found guilty of a charge that he had violated a quarantine order of the commissioner on domestic animals. Evidence to support the state’s com-| tentions in court was gathered by Chief Special Deputy Howard A. Elliott and Special Deputy William Jarvais of the force of the domestic animal commis- sion. A number of witnesses testified for the state during the course of the hearing, which occupied about three hours, The state claims that, on September 25 last, a cow of the.Colcord herd was subjected to a test for tuberculosis. A few days later another cow of the herd was placed on test. Dr. F. W. Page of Danielson was the veterinarian. Sub- sequently one of the cows was released from test. Eventually the state claims that a cow that reacted was sold into a tested herd in Salem in this state, contrary to the quarantine order of the commissioner of domestic animals. This sale is'de- nied by Mr. Colcord, who defended his own case in court and filed an appeal to the superior court when a decision was rendered against him. Attorney E. L. Darbie acted as special prosecutor for the state in the pro- ceedings at Woodstock. Suggestions as to what is being done at Putnam’'s evening school in the way of teaching those who would learn more of the Erglish language than oppertun- ity heretofore has allowed them are to be found in an exhibit being made this weck in the window of a shop in Main street. The exhibit contains cards showing sample lessons given those who are try- ing to learn the rudiments of the Eng- lish language that they may be better fitted to grapple with life's problems than would be the case were they throughout their lives confined to the use of their native tongue in this coun- try. Text books and other material used by the evening school teachers in carry- ing on the splendid work they are do- ing add to the interest of this -exhibit, the first of its kind seen in this city.

He is fully appreciative of the fact that Kempl is a very shrewd customer and that it will be difficult to again bring him into custody. Not a trace of the escaped prisoner has been found since he dashed away in the darkmess early Monday evening, and it is believed that he has made his way out of this part of the country. Putnam was swept during all of Wed- nesday by the first real blasts of winter —Dblustering, Arctic-touched gales that rushed out of the northwest, heralding the coming of the zero weather that starts in the northwestern tier have been experiencing for the past 48 hours. There was much shivering on the part of Putnam’s citizens and an avalanche of cails for additional supplies of . fuel. About the business section stores and offices seemed very generally to be well heated and no present indication of a fuel famine, although no large reserve stocks are held excepting In very few in- stances. ¢ Any of Putnam’s residents who care to stay up late enough tonight will -have the privilege of going to the railroad station and looking at three special cars that are to be attached to the north- bound State of Maine express.

Louis E. Kennedy ‘was the funeral director. Miss Chabot, a young girl, died as the result of burns received accidentally, Another of the popular dances given regularly under the auspicés. of the Ser- vice battery was held Wednesday eve- ning at the state armory.

Up to Wednesday noon no response had been received by representatives of the Second Congregational church of this city to their call of Rev. Simeon E. Cozad of East Bridgewater, Mass., to Dbecome pastor of the church in this city. Although a call was sent the past week by the clerk of the church the official call did not go forward until Monday of this week, so it is possible a reply may not be received until several more days elapse.

E. Greiner of The General Electric after the resular noonday lunch- con of the Norwich Rotary club at the Wauregan hotel on Wednesday. Many of the members of the Rotary club use electric light in their various lines of business and the demonstration was a revelation to many of them. In many industrial plants and mercantile houses Very little attention is actually paid o the lighting system provided the work- man or clerk can see his way about and do a fairly good day's work. The demonstration brought out the fact that proper and scientific lighting increases | production from 10 to 50 per cent, de { pending largely on the system now n use. Not only that but it keeps up the morale of the employe and is far sa than many of the old systems now usé, What appfes to the factory also applies to ‘the store with the addition of the fact that artificial daylight saves| o time to the/merchant and customer and tends toward a well satisfied trade. The demonstration took place in a specially constructed booth im which the various stages of lighting could be shown by the simpie throwing om a switch until the most efficient method of lighting was reached. The lecturer started with the haphazard method of lighting found frequently in large in- dustrial plants and showed how wi: the installation of a few simple devices such as improved reflectors and various types of lamps the factory would be Droperly lighted and the utmost effi- ciency of the workmen assured. With the aid of the compact photometers known as foot-candle meters, the auai- ence was able to determine the exact intensities and efficiency of the virious stages of lighting. On various charts were worked out the prablems of cost or installation and maintenance and the relative increase in efficiency. These charts showed that if by the installa- tion of proper lighting methods the workman in the factory was able to in- crease his prodsction three minutes a day it would p&y for the cost of in- stallation and maintenance. In speaking of the lighting of store interiors Mr. -Greiner showed how prop- er lighting effects could be used in dis- playing goods, making show windows attractive and many other effects that would tend to« make a satisfied cus- tomer as well as advertise the business to the greatest extent. Various types of lamps with reflectors showed that under certain conditions materials showed varying color - effects. V{.th the use of a certain type of lamp ma- terial containing several colors was shown exactly as it would appear in naturai daylight, thus saving the cus- tomer and clerk the bother of taking goods to the daylight to get the trad oduced by the simple instal- jlation of colored lights in different pd¥is also of the window. kept up.
