If worst came to worst, however, NJ Fs. Stoddard was sure women could fire machine gun at an enemy thirty miles away after the manner of modern warfare. Mrs. Stoddard's address was received with appreciation and frequent ap. plause.
 Miss Rosamond Danielson, secretary of the Putnam E. F. l.. and chairman of the N oman's Suffrage Association in Windham County, invited those present to help the suffrage case She said this might be done in three ways: First, by joining the league; second, by signing petitions; third, by contribut- ing money to support the work.
 Mrs. John Evans Sheppard of South Woodstock, who has been active in the Brooklyn, N. Y, Equal Franchise League, spoke most Interestingly of the work of Florence Nightingale on the battle field, as being quite as essen tial as that of the fighters. Referring particularly to conditions in New York, she compared the wounds on the body polite to those received bv soldiers, which needed eoualIv inc healing care of women. She predicted that women would have the vote in New York in 1915, and that four years after that they would not have Murphy in power.
 At the close of the meeting an in- formal reception was held by Mrs. Stoddard and many enjoyed meeting her.

Large and Enthusiastic Meeting
Live Address by Mrs. C. F. Stoddar.

Live Address by Mrs. (. F. StOddard
 The Putnam Equal Franchise League held meeting Friday even. ing, October 31st, in Odd Fellows hall, which was well attended by the mem- bers of the league and their friends The exercises were opened with a piano selection by Mrs. Frank C. Per ry of Thompson.
 Mrs. Walter J. Bartlett, president of the league, introduced the speaker of the evening, Mrs. Carlos F. Stoddard of New Haven, chairman of the Wom. an Suffrage Association in New Haven County. She demonstrates how in- dustrial and economic developments have changed the so-ealled "woman's sphere from the home to the outside world, where children are forced at the age of fourteen, in middle-ela life, 10 seek livelihood. To protect children after they have left the home to work in factories, boys from rum- sellers, girls going to and fro in the city streets, it is needful for women to have a voice, to have power, the unit of power given by the ballot. Some feared the ignorant vote.n Mrs. Stoddard eontended that although aliens had poured in on us in increas- ing numbers year after year, and been made voters, still the government has been steadily progressing, growing bet ter and better. It is only about thirty years that full manhood suffrage has been in existence. Everything that changes the old order always meets with opposition. Less than a hundred years ago, girls were not allowed in public schools. It was supposed their minds were incapable, not worth cult. vating, and when they were first ad- mitted they were limited 10 certain studies. II has since been proved that women have minds, but can they

Country Folk Weather Predictions
Thirty-one snow Storms on the Schedule

lhlrly =01e SHOW Storms on The Schedule
 A real old fashioned New England winter is predicted by the country folk. If their predictions come true we are due to have 3l snow stCrms before the flowers bloom It's all because the first snow appeared October 3l. If the snow had only waited one day there would have been a big slump in the snow shovel market. The way some of the country people reckon, the mum. Der of times they will have to sweep the snow from their door steps is to watch the way the first snow appears. They say il seldom fails and according to their reckoning we will have to have about one snow storm week 10 get the full allotment in before spring. Records show we are r days ahead of last year when the first snow appeared November l7, which of course goes to show that the extra time has been pro- vided to get the unusually large num- Der of snow storms in.
 snow shoes may be in demand, too, for those who took notice saw that the snow flakes melted from the warmth of suns rays which is an unfailing sign that the big amount of snow to come will slowly disappear by the same process and will not be carried away by any warm rain,
 October was record breaking month. It was the warmest and wettest wealth CT since 1904. There were only two clear days in October of this year, F being partly cloudy and r were cloudy. A light frost occurred on Oc. tober l3, a heavy frost on the = and then very heavy frost on the last day of the month

Yale Freshmen ll2---POmfret School Q
First Defeat for Preparatory School

Yale freshmen had the honor of get ting the first victory over the Pomfret School football team of 1913. Hereto. fore the strong preparatory school elev- en has not even been scored upon. Perhaps the school team was bit overawed by the collegians as it was noticeable that they did not show the first period that they did as the game progTessdd.
 Yale was a heavy, strcng, aggressive team and twice crossed Pomfret's goal line for touchdown. A number of Putnam people attended the game and were well pleased with the exhibition, and especially with the play of the PomfTet boys.
