These fires were due to carelessness
and easily preventible causes.
Regrettable as this needless waste of
property is, sadder still is Wisconsin's
record Of lives lost and injuries in fires.
According to newspaper accounts, in
1913, 46 persons died and 94 were in
juled in fires in this state.
When you consider these sad facts,
your carelessness becomes CRIMINAL
carelessness.
Will those dear to you be the next to
be offered as sacrifice on the altar of
carelessness? Then will you be haunt
ed the rest of your days.
Before heating fires are again start
ed we urge fire chiefs and all citizens to
make a thorough inspection of heating
plants and chimneys, and to see to it
that all fire hazards are corrected
promptly.
Protect homes. property and lives.

MANHASSET WON FROM GOOD
YEAR
Team Booking Good Clubs

The Manhasset base ball team had
no trouble at all in winning from
Goodyear last Saturday afternoon in
Putnam 1t is admitted by the local
management that Goodyear was not
presenting its strongest possible line
up.
Ellis pitched for Manhasset and
struck out 16 men while McFall of
Goodyear only sent four Manhasset
players to the bench by the strikeout
route. The Putnam players enjoyed
some batting practice and swatter the
ball to all corners of the lot. Ellis
made home run on a base on balls.
He logged down the first base line
and then sprinted for second. So sur
prised were the Goodyear players
that they began throwing the ball
around wild while Ellis easily made
the circuit.
The Connecticut Mills team of Dan
ielson will make their debut here
next Saturday.
The Ben Hurs of Uxbridge are
booked to play here in the morning
Fourth of July. In the afternoon
they will play in Pomfret. 1t is ex-
peeted that Arthur Blackmore of
Worcester will pitch for Pomfret.

ON HIS WAY TO
SOUTH AMERICA
Ex-Lieut. M. Gould Beard As.
sisting In Experiment With
New Engine
Left Hoboken, N. j., Last Week For
All-Summer Trip In Foreign
Waters

NJ. Gould Beard, formerly a lieu
tenant in the aviation service Of the
United States, left Hoboken, n. j.,
last week for an all-summer cruise in
South American waters in the inter
est of an engine firm by which he is
employed. The cruise is for the pur-
pose of experimenting and proving
the value of light engine installed
in a sea-going cruiser. Mr.. Beard
has complete oversight of the engine.
Leaving the service of the govern
ment after the signing of the arinis-
tice, Mr.. Beard entered the employ of
a concern which is specializing in air.
plane engines and motors and the idea
developed that a lighter machine
modelled after the plan of the air
ship motor, could be installed in
marine vessel to great advantage.
The firm fitted out a cruiser, in
stalling one of its new-type engines,
and placed Mr.. Beard in charge. The
cruise will be of sufficient duration to
give thorough test to the idea and
prove whether or not it is practical.
Through his experience in the air
service the former lieutenant has
gained valuable knowledge which es-
pecially fitted him for the trust the
concern has placed in him.
He does not expect to return until
fall, and the cruise may take him not
only to the southern continent but to
many of the adjacent islands as well.

OUR BANNER
Poem Written By H. C. Shaylor
Portland, Me.
Work of Handwriting Expert Hangs
In Many Putnam Homes

How many hundred graduates of
Putnam High School know, when they
look at their diplomas, that the beau
tiful sample of penmanship thereon
is the work of G. w. Shaylor of Port
land, Maine? For the past quarter
of century the diplomas have been
sent to Mr.. Shaylor that he might fill
in the names, dates, etc. Quite nat
urally this has led to more than pass
ing interest in the Putnam school by
the expert penman who, during this
long period of years, has annually
had our high school thus brought to
his attention
In returning the 1919 diplomas Mr..
Shaylor enclosed an original poem on
the National flag, given herewith:
Thy stars and stripes, o Banner
bright,
Wave grandly true from lofty height,
Like signals from the hilltop flung,
Or sounds from chimes in belfries
hung.
Thy stripes are pure without alloy,
Thy folds are tremulous with Joy,
Thy stars shine ever clear and true
AS in Gods armament of blue.
They tell of faith both rich and
strong,
They tell of triumph over wrong;
Their lustre bright shall never dim,
For they are wrought through faith
in Him.
Each star jewel is of light,
Each stripe makes purpose strong to
fight
'Gainst wanton i'll, to break or bend,
Till Victory shall crown the end.
Our Fathers brav'd a wintry sea
To seal this land for Liberty;
This precious boon will be our care
To give to all men everywhere.
We pledge our lives to make men free
From pole to pole, Ger land and sea !;
Our starry Flag shall ne'er be furl'd
Till Liberty shines round the world.
Chorus
Then cheer the Fiagl Red, White
and Blue,
A trinity of colors true,
Combin'd in one make truly great
The Standard of our Ship of State.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. II stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jceted is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.
