A Useful Farmer Who Enjoys Lie.

MIR Gilbert A Tracy is one of the
farmers Of this town who makes farm
ing pay. He does not fertill1e his soil
with brains, as one farmer said he did
when asked What he used To raise his
good crops, but like other successful
New England farmers, he uses brains
in carrying on every detail of his call
ing TO get the best sure results from it.
Neither does he make himself drudge
TO farming. BY combining literary
intercourse with the outside world he
enjoys farming and gets as much graz
titication cut of life as men can in any
calling, His experience in his line of
life and what it brings him in solid
comfort as we'll as material profit,
would no doubt be of interest and BEN
eft 10 others besides farmers
In early life he taught school and,
as one whom he mad instructed said of
him rs teacher: "He was one of the
best ~
Mr.. Tracy cultivated his mind by
reading the best old and current liter
AIRY productions, and in time he came
in correspondence with some of the
best literary characters in Great Bril-
tain and the Continent, as well as in
his own country. This tended to give
inspiration to his natural bent of mind
and enabled him to become helpful in
the important service of advancing the
literary work of the world.
without knowing more than some
Incidents of Mr.. Tracy's literary ca
reer, IL was of these of which we wish
to speak as of interest to the general
reader.
In his Intercourse with Paris cor
respondent, he learned OF ten large
manuscript folios in Mr. Theodore Til
tons autograph, consisting of ballads
and lyrics, and which he was enabled
TO have transferred to him To dispose of
as he deemed best. He had already
placed copy of "The Complete Poeti-
cal Works" of the late Theodore TIL
ton, in the Boston Public Library, also
copy of the same in each of the libra
ries of Smiths College and Yale and.
Brown Universities.
On receiving the ten large manu-
script folios from Paris, he gave three
OF them to the Library of Congress
of which Dir. Putnam is Librarian, who
is particularly appreciative of Mr.. Til
toms poetry-and also two volumes Of
these folios each to Yale and Brown
University Libraries. For. these gifts
Mr. Tracy was warmly thanked.
Mr.. Tracy carries on his farming half
n mile south OF our city limits.

To Instruct in Penmanship.

For some time:past our School Board
have been very much dissatisfied with
the penmanship Of pupils in the pub
lie schools. AS result of this they
invited Mr.. Harry Houston, supervisor
of writing in the New Haven schools,
TO come to this city for conference.
Mr.. Houston met the Board Monday
afternoon and explained his method Of
instruction. Besides the New Haven
schools, he has some forty other towns
in which he gives instruction to the
teachers, which they, In turn, impart
to their pupils.
Mr.. Houston, upon being asked, told
the Board that If he came to this city
once a month until June, he was posi-
tive he could satisfy the Board with
the results he would obtain. He offer
ed TO come again this month free Of
charge-succeeding visits at $40 each,
with expenses.
1t was voted TO have Mr.. Houston
come to Putnam the next four months,
and also, that enough copy books be
purch ,sed, at four cents each, to sup
ply the public and High schools.

Meeting OF Putnam Cemetery Association

At the annual meeting of the Put
nam Cemetery association held in the
common council chamber Saturday
the following officers were elected for
the ensuing year:
President, Colonel c. ID. Bates.
Vice president, Judge l.. I'll. Fuller.
Secretary and treasurer, Newton \.
Ballard.
Trustees for three years, Charles w.
Broadway, IL. IL. Houghton.
Committee on trusts, Charles w.
Broadway, David +. Clark.
Auditors trust accounts, Charles W.
Broadway, l.. IL. Fuller.
Auditors general accounts, e. ID.
Sharpe, John o. Fox.
The meeting voted to have the trus-
tees investigate relative to the building
of a new chapel and tomb at the Grove
street cemetery and report at the next
annual meeting.
The past year has been one of finan.
cial gain for the association, the trust
accounts increasing by Sl,025 during
1910, and now amounts to S9,796,1S,
which with the interest makes a total
in excess OF $4,000. During the past
year So ,052.35 was expended by the rs
ISOLATION in making general repairs
about the grounds. incidentally there
is an opportunity for some one who
may desire TO perpeiuate the memory
of some dear relative or friend to do an
act that would effectively carry out
that aim by erecting memorial chap
ell in the cemetery. The Tillinghast
memorial chapel in Evergreen ceme-
terry at Central Village supplies an ex-
cellent example of what may be &C.
complished in this respect. Grove
street cemetery offers beautiful set
ting for such memorial.
The annual report of the superin-
tendent, l.. NJ. Keith, was an interest
ing document, giving clear idea of
the work accomplished and improve
ments made during thesyear. Among
the Improvements mentioned, was the
Park section, plot 44xll6 feet, beat
tifully graded, with foliage and flow
ering plants, in the southwestern part
of the cemetery. Eight hundred feet
of water pipe were laid during the
year; There were SO interments, and
disinterments.

City Court-Fulisr Judge,

charged with being drunk and assault
ing Officer Cordier, was taken up.

fled that he saw the affair and that
Sponcey did not hit the officer.
The court found the accused guilty
and sentenced him to pay fine of S.

Echoes from Metre Dame.

During these bright, beautiful days
of the past week the students of n. ID.
a. were in spiritual retreat, and under.
lying this fact is tale which breathes
andying peace and coutentment, the
happiness of souls in sweet commu-
Mon with their M aker.
To the casual observer perhaps the
convent and lis surroundings appeared
lonely during this time, but to the "a
vored souls whose privilege it was To
crowded with joys unmingled with
worldly care or worry. No thought of
lessons, no remembrance of sorrow
was there TO mar the calm peace by
which the pupils were surrounded.
They were enveloped in mist of the
happy serenity which is not of this
world.
On Sunday evening, January 30, the
Retreat opened with Benediction, after
which short address on the purpose
and necessity of a few days of solitary
reflection, was given by the Rev. Di-
rector, Father Nolen, G. SIS. II. of
Brooklyn, n. Y.
The oratorical ability and the energy
for the souls, this devoted priest pos.
sesses are Of wide renown; his gentle,
persuasive eloquence swayed every
heart and completely controlled every
mind. His hearers eagerly dwelt upon
his sermons and Wed with one another
in fervor and devotion.
The mornings were filled with pious
exercises. Each day at $50 confer
ence was held, practical subjects being
discussed. The first of these instruc-
tons considered the deadly effects of
moral sin, the malice which makes it
hateful, and the eternal death to which
it dooms the soul.
Many and varied were the devotions
practiced both privately and publicly.
The Stations of the Cross were preced-
ed by visit to the Blessed Sacrament
Fervently was the Rosary of the Bles-
tentively each mind rested op the dis
courses of the spiritual director.
One of the most striking of his ser
mons was that which treated of Death.
This awful, inevitable end of Life, so
far from the ordinary thought of a
schoolgirl, and yet subject we'll worth
serious consideration "for 1t will come
as thief in the night, and the hour it
will come no man knoweth.u
All too soon the days of the Retreat
came to close, and with a sigh of gem
uine regret those who had enjoyed it
fully, turned from the silence and rec
objection of those solemn days to the
joyous tumult of the free day which
followed.
But the effects of the Retreat did not
so soon vanish. 1t would be safe to as
sert that the good resolves, the fruits
of the retreat, will never wear away,
but will continue TO illumine the path
way OF the SOU! throughout life until
ii CLEANS with brighter radiance to
light the dark gateway of death, unto
that bourne whence no traveller re-
turns.
On Thursday afternoon Father No
len left Putnam to the deep and sin
cere grief of all, for other missionary
fields where he will bring the same
spiritual joy to those who like the stu
dents of Notre Dame will consider
themselves favored in receiving from
So sanity preacher the words of
eternal wisdom

Robbins Circus Had a Well Balanced
Program

The Frank A. Robbins circus and
menagerie made another hit in New
ton on Tuesday at both the afternoon
and evening performances.
In the evening about every seat in
the big canvas was occupied, and
when the exhibition was closed with
the old mule act, there was not g dis
senting voice heard regarding the
merits of the show, and it was gener-
ally characterized good clean circus
with many daring, startling acts.
The aerial acrobatic acts, trapeze
performance and tumbling was of a
high class.
The head balancing act of Hillary
Long was one of unusual merit, both
on the swinging trapeze and platform.
The performing horses did stunts
which captured the attention of every
one and won we'll deserved applause.

in few moments and with the use OF
but half a dozen flags in various com.

language and the complexity of many
necessary messages are considered the

seem very inadequate. However, ii
must be remembered that the signal
code utilizes sort of shorthand. and
many long messages. known TO be OF
