 Putnam's Liberty loan subscriptions Friday had run up to $325, in round numbers and was higher than anyone here had predicted it would be. -s
 In every respect the campaign in this. city was a signal success. Sub scriptions began to dribole in about the first of the month, but during the past ten days there has been a steady and systematic campaign to arouse the people of the district to subscribe with final results that are more than gratifying.
 Organization of a Liberty joan. com mittee here really marked the begin ming of the drive to get the districts apportionment. and this move was fol- lowed up by the appoin tment of ward committees from the Liberty loan committee and organizing sub commit tees in other towns of the district- Thompson, Pomfret, Woodstock
 During the latter part of the past week the drive that was being made under the direction of the committee began to be very effective, but its greatest results did not become mani lest until Thursday, when such a rush for bonds set in as to almost over wheIm those who were handling the business

NEW DIRECTORY ISSUED.

The new city directory of Paris,
compiled and issued by the Hoffman
Printing Co., of Quincy, ILL.,, who
make a speciality of this class Of
work, is just off the press, and is be-
ing delivered to subscribers by rep
resentatives of the concern.
The new book is complete one in
all respects and fully justifies the
confidence placed in the promoters
when they began the work.
Mr.. VIM. G. Hoffman, president of
the Hoffman Printing Co.,, came to
Paris with his representatives to see
that the work of delivery was prop
erly carried on. Aside from this Mr..
Hoffman confessed to a desire to see
the Bluegrass region of Kentucky,
and especially Bourbon county and
Paris, of which he had heard so
much. Mr.. Huffman said he had
heard from Kentuckians in Chicago
and other parts of Illinois where he
had visited, of the beauty of the
Bluegrass region in the early fall,
and of the wonderfully fine turnpike
system. He said his visit fully JUS
titled all the praise he had heard.
Mr.. Hoffman was member Of the
Illinois legislature a few years ago,
and while in that body, drafted and
successfully engineered the passage
of what is now known as the illinois
Good Roads bill, which has done
more than anything to foster and
maintain good roads in that State.
Mr. Hoffman was greatly pleased
with the appearance of Paris and
with the people he had met. ''You
have good town, splendidly located,
with natural advantages that ought
to be utilized, but you need manu-
factories to help the city along" he
said. A very patent and palpable
fact, as we all know, but which will
probably never be realized.

General misunderstanding Comes
Close To Destruction Of One

Through general Misunderstanding
on the part of the supervisors, the city
engineer, the street car company and
the Spnlding Construction Company,
the fine row of ironwood trees on Kala.
kaua Avenue, facing Kapiolani Park,
narrowly escaped destruction yester,
day. Only the protest Of a citizen
who happened by, and saw some Of the
trees being cut down, saved the row,
which is regarded as one of the attrae.
lions Of Honolulu.
The Spalding Construction Company,
which is doing the work of repaving
Kalakaua Avenue, started TO cut down
the trees, in accordance with the provi'
sions Of its contract. The contract
snys that the trees must pe cut down,
and the contracting company stated
yesterday that il had included the cost
Of this work in its tender. Officials Of
the company said they were very glad
when they were ordered to stop the
work.
Collins made the statement that he
thought the trees would have TO be cut
down so that the tracks of the Rapid
Transit Company could be moved. He
would be glad to save them II II was
found they did not have to come down
