will be"reopened this morning. Health | Officer Peter Gardner said Saturday | afternoon that general health eondi- tions in the city are very much i'm proved -@ New cases of iIlnesssare re- ported every day, but this. also is true ] in normal times. So the situation is now regarded as eneouraging.s
 Attention is agaif, being called to the annual practice of making gifts to the Day Kimball hospital, practice that interests people in most of the towns of eastern sWindham county. The usual arrangements will be fol- lowed this year. The gifts to the hospital in the past Have included fee, tea, raisinsr cocoa, fresh fruit vegetables eggs, butter. lard, baking powder, etc, etc During the epi den1ic the hospital has been a refuge for many and as each year goes by the inestima ole value of the institution not only to Putnam but all the sur rounding towns becomes more and more apparent.

 Putnam is back on "sun time" this morning, as it was Sunday morning. Throughout the city clocks were be- ing set forward eleven hours Saturday night. though many did not make the change until Sunday morning. In connection with the daylight saving scheme. which was approved by the vast majority of people llereabouts.
 it is now of interest to note that some who are ultra conservative did i watches Saturday or Sunday. They didn't change them in the: spring, believing, as one man declared, there ain't no. use trying to interfere with things arranged by the Almighty" These people have been off time for
 months, but it didn't worry them any. George kies, who was former resi-
 dent in the town of Thompson died at the Day kimt1all hospital, it was announced Saturday morning. MT kies, 62 years of age, was born in | Wilmington. Formerly he was q resi- l dent of Union. He was the son of
 Harris Kies and Cordelia Main. Such success was achieved last year 1 it now seems certain that the second Windham county corn show. being ar
 ranged by County Agent B. W. Ellis, will be more of an attraction than
 ever when it is held in Odd Fellows
 hall in this city on Nov. 21 Premium
 lists are being mailed upon request
 from the office of the Farmers asso- | citation in this city.
 A gang of men is now engaged in | stringing crossarms and doing other equipment work incident to getting
 the power transmission line of the
 Shore Line Electric Railway company ready for use. Crossarrns were being | put on poles in the town of Putnam
 near the David Clark place on Xiii
 lingly avenue, Saturday. This work
 will require several weeks asa many
 miles of poles are to be equipped. Most Putnam people being now con
 vinced that the city's boys who are
 in the service, will not be home fol
 Christmas, preparations are being
 made to send them boxes of good
 things for the holiday. The war de
 partment is urging propmpt attention
 to this. matter, as much time will be
 required to transport the packages and getting them to the points of dis
 tribution in France, England ant
 Italy.
 '' All towns near here are reporting z . general subsistence of the inhuenzs

 at any time within the memory O
 anyone hereabouts.
