Putnam patriot., 1908-05-01

William n. Fisher, Of Newhuryport. Mass. His suggestions as te engaging ia work 10 secure new industries will not be overlooked. The lateness of the hour hinds red him, no doubt from sag ing more on the same line.
 In the remarks made by Rev. F. n. sargent, in the few minutes allotted him, was an instance ef his experience on his arrival in Putnam--a stranger among strangers. Two gentlemen, with simple naturalneSs, as a matter of course, gave him the friendly attention needed by a stranger. No doubt they thought nothing more of what they Sargent said, and were agreeahly sur prised to learn that what they did sev- enteeu years ago was treasured ap in his memory as one of the pleasant inei- dents that marked his arrival in Put- nam. II Was not for him Ia make any application of that incident, II im- pressed itself on all hts hearers. When the Association Is fotmed one of its main features should be to have com miltee whose duty-and pleasure--it should be to welcome strangers who come to leca;e or seek to locate among u@, that they may have treasures of re- menbfanee of the Putnam iiu,iaoss Mems Association ef it's kind ae leone te strangers.

He recognizes the need ef some form or or ganization not only to give prosperity Ia our clty hut save il from possible disease through careless indifference. lis efforts in one notable instance has blessed our eily above other places in the State. He does not eontine himself te his special line af life, but sees need of taking care of our Financial interests. What he says on that score has the ap- probation of large class of our citi- zens, and therefore closes his limited remarks with this appeal: :" P,tt',aaat PurNAMt PUTNAMl WAKE IP,a

 Judge F. NJ. Warner ga3e his own experience io show That Putnam was desirable place Iii which any proper person could find business success and good home. Col. Dean, he said, mem toned the name of C. W. Phillips as one of the leading men of the town in years gone by. He remembered Mir Phillips with gratitude, as thirty years ago he had urged him to come to Put nam. In iSs5 he caine, and from that day to this he had never for one mo- ment regretted coming He Was prond of his city and to be one of It's citizens. He believed the future pfosperityo of the city would equal that of the past. He WAS heartily in iasof of the proposed Association, and would do all he pos sibly could to aid IL in it's purpose to advance the interests of the city. The ciliz ns should all pull together.

 NEVER MIND THE KICKER.
 Go ahead and make your play:
 Never mind the kicker
 He's in every workers WAY,
 Neves mind the kicker.
 Every one who seeks to shine,
 1T successful, he'll maiigp;
 ''Tis of fame certain sign
 Never mind the kicker.
 If you have n task to do,
 Never mind thetkicker
 Have your nerve and see 1t thro',
 Never mind the kicker. When your labofs have been done
 You may know that you have won If the pounding has begun Never mind the kicker. He strikes only those who climb; Never mind the kicker. 'Tis success he deems crime; Never mind the kicker. If he hammers at your name, Then be sure you re in the game, lis a species of acclaim; Never mind the kicker. His low aim afIirfns his caste; Never mind the kicker. Fiercest storms most quickly pass; Never mind the kicker.
 When the kicker's course k run,
 When his Jeers and scoffs are done, He'll be cursed by every one; Never mind the kicker. MT. z. A. Hammond, in his address,
