COUNTRY CLUB.
Advocated by Frederick R. Eiston, of
 ElmViIIe.

What looks like a first class idea the establishment of 8 country club in Danielson or vicinity, for the promo ton of golf, tennis and other health full outdoor sports-has been advanced by Frederick R. Elston of the Sonnhill Worsted mills at Elmville. Time and conditions seem particularly oppor- tune for organizing such 8 club.
 There are many lovers of outdoor sports in the villages of this town, most of them hankering for some di- version that would take them out in the open and give them the thrill that can be realized only from active ex- ercise where the two greatest of re- storers for fagged nerves--fresh air and sunshine-may be assimilated while the brain busies itself with an interest that is not grinding routine.
 Golf, one of the greatest of sports, has been neglected here. The game of monarchs and millionaires is not patented for the preference of stem cil few. It's everybody's game and one of the health builders. That's the idea spreading over the country and there isn't any reason why 1t shouldn't be adopted here.
 Mir. Elston is anxious to interest those who would golf or play tennis. From conferences that he might se- cure, some definite line of action might be adopted and an organization brought about in a short time. MT. Elston's interest is purely the interest of one who would see the club formed for the pleasures 1t would make possi- hIe

SOLD TO RLAcKLIsTED COUPLE
George Levesque and Philip Gadbois Violated Law and Were Fined-The Two LeCIairs Cause of Trouble,

Some Putnam people have not yet learned that they are very apt to get into trouble through furnishing liquor to persons whose names appear on the blacklist. Wednesday morning in the city court MT. and Mrs. Adolphus Le- Clair, blacklisted persons, were pre- sented before Judge Geissler on a charge of having been intoxicated. Their plea was guilty and the court imposed a sentence of 30 days in jail and costs. The execution of the sen terce was suspended and the LeClairs placed in charge of the probation off, cer for a period of six months.
 George Levesque pleaded not guilty to giving liquor to the LeClairs, but they and their daughter, testified that he did. A fine of S25 was imposed by the court, with costs of $s.09, which was paid.
 Philip Gadbois was also fned-s15- for furnishing the LeClairs liquor. Some consideration was shown him in fixing the amount of the fine because it was his first offense.
 Another fine of $15 and costs of $s.09 was imposed on Emil Lapointe.
