not as common as heretofore. We

Children are much more likely 70
contract the contagious disease when
they have colds. Whooping cough,
diptheria, scarlet fever and consump-
ton are diseases that are often con-
sracted when the child has a cold.
That is why all medical authorities
say beware of colds. For the quick
cure of colds you will find nothing
better than Chamberlain Cough
remedy. It can always be depend

The fifth man should be from out of
the city, of ability and with fairly
judicial mind. If necessary to pay
him, the cost would not be great.

If the Commission Fails.

Ii tltc OOIIlItllSSlOli l. dis.
If this commission cannot agree
upon a plan to be adopted, why not
submit each of their reports (major-
ity and minority to the people
through the newspaper, and let them
vote on the matter? This vote
should be final, but should not be
taken until all the facts are before
the public for their consideration.
At present we are getting nowhere
and nothing is being gained. If the
Record declared unqualifedly in
favor of the North Main Street site
it would ALLEVIATE the hill-site peo-
pie; if for the hill-site then the
Main Streeters would be on its trail
And neither Of these stands and op-
positions would get US anywhere.
The difference in tax simply on ac-
count Of location is too small to be
serious about 212cents per 500 of
taxable property in favor of the hill
site, other costs being equal On a
$4,000 property this would make
the grand total of 81 per year.
Let us do something, and do it
quick, and have peace. The task
of steering a straight and careful
path between two opposing lines
of Scholastic fighters is enough to
get on ones nerves. Well gladly
assist a commission, the Mayors
commission, or anybody else's COM
mission that promises a speedy
settlement. The editor will give all
the space needed in these columns,
or will donate services in the way
of making surveys or maps of the
properties in question, in order that
the commission may the more readily
reach a solution.

THE SCHOOL LOCATION
Continued from Sd page.
The Tax Rate.


would add at least $4,000 per year
to the cost of running the schools,
and to meet this cost would necess-
itate raising the tax rate p cents
per 500 of taxable property.
Thus a man owning a small pro-
perty taxed at 81 900, would pay an
additional So. 70 per year; the $4,000
man would pay S.. 40; the $4,000
property $40. 80, the $4,000 worth
of property S2700, and any good
citizen so lucky as to own $4,000
worth would pay $54, and so on up.
This is all based, of course, upon
an expected total expenditure Of
500, 900 before the work of building
and rebuilding is completed HalVe
the expense and you would halve the
tax rise
If we apply the raise to the man
who is paying rent, it would be safe
to assume that the man now living
in 81 a monnh house should pay
about so cents per month more, to
make the interest on the investment
the same to the owner; and the man
living in a $14 house should pay 81
per month more to accomplish the
same result. Whether any such adj
vance would be made or not is an
other matter.
We have not been able to obtain
anything like an approximate cost
of remodeling the present buildings
SO that they could continue to be used
for several years, but this is what is
likely to be done before the matter
is settled.
Talking with more than one hun
dred people about the school trouble,
eighty-five of them admitted that
the subject was a complex one and
not understood at the recent election
to determine what should be done.
Summed up, the question of hill
or town is one for the citizens to
decide. If they want their children
to climb the hill, or prefer the
school removed from the more built
up section, that is matter for them
to say, and if they want the Main
Street site that is their privilege,
too.
The Records suggestion for a
settlement of the question (which
seems to have created more or less
of furore in certain quarters) is
not original. 1t is a compromise of
the idea originated by Mayor Lauer
when he suggested board of arbi-
tration.
We would suggest a commission

Bob Kidheart Makes Good

Bob kidheart Kid Van bon Occur, a former Putnam boy, who broke into the wrestling game before he left this city some years ago, is still performing on the mat and from all accounts Is making an excellent showing. He ap- peared in Springfield recently with George Robarge, much heavier man, in preliminary to bout between Yankee Rogers and pr. Roller, two well.known heavyweights. A Spring held paper gives the following fiatter- ing account of the former Putnam boys showing;
 "The real interest last evening was in the preliminary, which was one of the most dazzling affairs ever held in the hall. Bob Kidheart of Claremont, N. H., who met George Robarge of this city, proved to be a whirlwind on the mat, and Robarge signally failed to put him down even once in 30 minutes, although he had agreed to do the act twice. Kidheart showed an amazing knowledge of the wrestling game, and the crowd was most enthusiastic over his work"

Junior Prom

The junior class of the Putnam High school gave their annual promenade dance to the seniors in the school gymnasium Friday evening. The gym was tastefully and prettiIy deco rated in yellow and green, the class colors, and overhead was festooned crepe paper of the spne colors making network of color under which the couples danced. The corners of the room were banked with palms and ferns making bower of green in which the patronesses sat. The pat ronesses were Misses Keith, Robbins, Sylvester, Leach and Davis and Mrs. l. E. Wignot. Excellent music was furnished by the Cargill orchestra.
 Promptly at sa5 o'clock the grand march formed led by William Fuller and Miss Hazel Davis. There were about sixty couples in line. Dancing followed. One of the features of the evening was the waltz serpentine dance when long rolls of paper were thrown streaming from the balcony in all directions entangling the dancers. Dancing continued until midnight. Fruit punch was served. The occasion was most enjoyable one, well planned and well carried out by the class of 1914.

Business Change

August Blanchette, of A. & J. Blanchette, has sold his interest in the concern to his brother-in-iaw and part ner, Joseph Blanchette, who will con- duct the store as heretofore. Henry c. Trudeau, who has been connected with the N. T. Hurlbut store for the past twelve years, has resigned his po- sition to take the management of the Blanchette store.
 Since the Blanchettes opened their furniture store in the Peloquin block on Elm street they have built up . prosperous business. They are pro gressive business men and are well &C., quainted with the business and the wholesale market. The store will con- tinue along the same progressive lines and the new proprietor and manager will endeavor to continue the growth of the business.
 MT. Trudeau, who will become the manager, is we'll known in Putnam He came here from Voluntown with his parents when he was but six years old and has lived here ever since. He is an upright, honossble young busi- ness man with bright future before him and will without doubt be valu- able man for Mir. Bianchette. He hns msny friends in Putnam who arc oon- graduating him upon his rise h tho business interests of the cisy.

City court...FuIIer Judge

Michael Brooks was sentenced to pay s when he appeared before the court Friday morning and plead gull ty to drunkenness. Michael left his job in Southbridge because he had to work too long hours. He trollied down from Webster and stopped off here. He was en route to Attawaugan and when he was ready to resume the last leg of his journey he had an awful load. There wasn't room for him and his load on the car, so he was put of on Grove street where he was found down and out. He said he remem ber- ed nothing about it.
 John Carlson plead guilty to drunk enness Monday morning and paid a fine of g. He also paid $8 on a back account from 1909, the last time he ap- peared in court.

Common Council

| The regular monthly meeting of the common council was held Tuesday evening. In the absence of the mayor and alderman. at.large Alderman La- Rue presided.
 The records of previous meetings were read and ordered filed. The police report showed i9 arrests, sent to jail and 3 bound over to the | superior court, 5 doors were found open, electric light out 45 hours. Building permits were granted C. 5. Andem for a greenhouse 203x67 on Farrows street, w. F. Courtney barn on Dewy street, Peter Dumas barn and shed on Lamont street.
 I A petition for fire alarm box at the corner of School and Providence streets was referred.
 Alderman Mann stated that hy- drant was badly needed on George street. He saId that that section was inadequately protected and 1t would make difference in insurance rates something was not done.
 Alderman Duvert said the matter was brought up some time ago and recommended the hydrant. The su- perintendent of the waterworks was spoken to and said that 1t would be necessary to lay larger pipe from the main as the present one was too small. Nothing was done about it as the com pany was contemplating selling the plant to the city. The committee will again take the matteriup.
 Fire Chief Maynard was present and said the department was in need of 800 feet of hose. With the present supply the wagons were cften loaded with wet hose which was not proper method. He also stated that the chief and assistant chief had no rubber boots or coats. It was voted that 800 feet of hose be purchased, also boots and coats as requested.
 There was considerable discussion regarding the curbing of Fremont street. The matter was brought up by Alderman Mann at the request of citi- zens abutting the street in Ward 1. In order to grant the petition for the inn provement it was decided It would be necessary to get an appropriation to carry out the work.
 The following bills were ordered

Sacred Heart Society

Two organizations of the Sacred Heart and Holy Name society have re- gently been formed among the male members of St. Mary's parish, one of the English speaking members and the other of French speaking members. The latter was formei last Sunday evening. These organizations are be- ing formed all over the country at the suggestion of the pope and the bishop and the purpose is to have the mem- bers respect and revere the Holy Name and that the members attend holy communion in body every three months.
 Over 300 men gathered at the church Sunday evening. There was an ex- cellent sermon by Fr. Hayes of New Haven after which was the rosary ser vice and the adoration of the blessed sacrament conducted by Fr. Dykeman.
 On June sth there will be union service in this city at which members of the Holy Name societies from all over the county will be present. Rt. Rev Bishop Milan will be present and make an address. Over 800 names were handed in as members of the new society. The pastor, Rev. C. F. Be- dard, is much pleased at the interest manifested in the formation of the society.

Eagles Initiate Large Class

Putnam Aerie of Eagles, No. 1894, held class initiation in Hammond hall, this city, last Sunday afternoon. The occasion was an event in the his tory of the local aerie and created new enthusiasm in the order. The class numbered 70. The degree was confer red in an impressive manner by de- gree team from Webster aerie. There was music by an orchestra from Web ster aerie and their playing was of high order. There were also number of vocal selections that were pleasing ly rendered. Refreshments were served. A number of addresses were made by various members which were greeted with applause, George Authier of Webster acting as toastmaster. The local aerie was congratulated for the fine showing it has made since the or ganization and for the interest taken in the order by the members. New mem- bers are being constantly added and the aerie Is in prosperous condition. IL is the ambition of Putnam aerie to reach the 900 mark, and there's a req son, which any eagle can tell you. Among those present were representa- tives from Woonsocket, Southbridge, Bridgeport, Warwick and Worcester. The entire gathering numbered about 300, who enjoyed immensely the spread of the Eagles wings, as prepared by the social committee. Much praise has been heard for the able manner in which the affair was planned and car ried out.

spectacles, among the things taken from the men. There were only three reyolvets exhibited. If each had one and they tookLeClair's there were four to account for. One of the men finally admitted that he had thrown one away.
 Probable cause was found and the men were bound over to the Superior court and in default of a bond of 5000 in each case were taken to jail. They took their predicament as somewhat of joke.
 It is believed that the men had heard stories of LeClair's having mon- ey and expected to get good haul.

gin over the Cleveland Maps, and
they are doing it with one dependable
pitcher, Eddie Plank, the Gettysburg
southpaw. Chief Bender is doing his
share of the hurting, but when Mack
is in a tight hole, and wants a game
badly, he sends Plank to the firing
line.
Plank has been southpawing since
the American League was an infant,
always wearing an Athletic uniform.
For the last three years predictions
have been made in the spring that
plank is through . but Ed has come
back in the same old way. Last sea-
son he had one of the best years of
his career, winning 26 and losing 6
games, with a team that was disor-
ganized and not playing together. If
the other pitchers had nearly APP
preached Plank in effectiveness the
