 Sgt Flagg was a draftee from the jurisdiction of the local board in Putnam and went to Camp Devens Oct. 1, fsl7 He attended a non commissioned officers school at Dew ems and in February, 1918, went to Gettysburg, Pa, for training in the tank corps.

charle. F. Bedsrd

The Rev. Charles r. Bedard was born in Canada and was educated al Laval University. Twenty-Five years ago he was ordained to the priest hood by Bishop Larocque and came to Connecticut to work among its French Canadian population.
 Fr. Bedard's first assignment was to St. Marys church. East Hartford, where he remained as curate for only six weeks when he was transferred to St. Peters church, Danbury. Here he remained but two months when he was again transferred. This trans fer took him to St. James parish, Danieson. where he remained for a year and half. going from there to St. Anne's church. Waterbury. From Waterbury he was transferred to St. Anne's church, Hartford, where he remained for twelve years or more. He found the parish heavily in debt hut at the end of his pastor ate the debt had been removed.
 Wherever Fr. Bedard has gone he has been producer and builder, new CT content to let things stand still; he has always stood for progress and ad- His ideas and plans were nut into practice and once he made m his mind that a new bulls'ng. change in an old one. or some im- was needed. he was not latisfed until he saw the creation or is brain reality.
 When Fr. Bedard arrived in Put
Putnam patriot., 1919-05-23

took many months to complete, but when finished the practitioners had house of worship of which they are all proud.
 One of the latest improvements was the improving of the entrance to the church. The old stone steps with the landing above made of brick, was torn down and a cement entrance built 4 new fence was also built surrounding the property on Provi- denee street west of the church and on Marshall street as far south as the brick wall. This allowed the corner to be rounded off and made great improvement in the appearance of the locality
 What further improvements Fr Bedard has in mind have not taken definite shape. but 1t is certain that he has more under consideration, for he is builder and is never satisfied to remain idle He has not only made all of these expensive changes but at the same time has wiped out the whole debt The parish was for tunate in having such man assign ed 10 Putnam. for he stands for pro gress every minute of the day.
 Fr Bedard is a man of impressive and forceful character. His entire interests are centered in the church and the parish He is an indefatiga- ble worker and his pleasure is plan ming and carrying through some pro- feet that will benefit the parish. He is shrewd fnancier, capable and farsighted. He sees at once where opportunity offers and grasps each project in all of it's details with mas ter mind He is a natural builder and producer and wants to be ever lastingly at 1t, not that the return fol his effort is a personal gain but all ways in the interests of his fellow men. for those to whom he has con secrated his life as priest. To what limits St. Mary's parish may be ad- vanced under such capable guidance time alone can tell. The prospect is exceedingly bright for the future.
 Like the two preceding pastors Err Bedard ministers to the individual physical needs of his flock as well as the spiritual needs. His quiet philan- thropies are many. He is born or ganizer and the various church soeie- ties have been strengthened since nc has been here, the formation, or per haps better, the reorganization of the Sacred Heart and Holy Name Soeie- ty. being a sample of his efforts along this line. He interests himself Tn the wholesome amusements of his people and this interest on his part gives them pleasure and encouragement He is highly esteemed and respected by members of the parish in whom he has inspired a perfect trust and con- fdence so that they are unanimously cooperating with him in all of his un- dertakings and giving financial sup port freely whenever that support Is requested.

 The faet tsat the paroehial schools were overerowded and not in the best sanitary condition was one thing that received his immediate attention. h seeking the solution of this first and most important problem he found that Notre Dame Academy for young ladies was using valuable parish prop erty with little return to the members of the parish He found that this school was really detriment to the parish and set about having it remoy- ed The pupils were soon transfer red to a similar school in Hartford.
 With this fine building as a means to his end he set about having 1t re modelled. renovated and transformed into model parochial school. light, airy. sanitary and finely equipped As soon as this work was completed the pupils were transferred to the new quarters and the old antequated buildings destroyed A large flag pole was raised where these old build ings. long an eye sore, had stood, and flag raising was held.
 The cemetery next drew the utten- ton of Fr. Bedard Very few lots were left available for use so con ] tiguous tract of land was bought and annexed as cemetery property Par ishioners were urged to improve their lots and to bring the enclosure up to better condition. This was done and today the cemetery is excellertly cared for
 The property south of the city known as Priests Island was sold to advantage, the penny collection was raised to a nickel collection and by various other means the yearly in- come of the parish was increased un- si, it has reached the munifcent sum l of s27,o0o year. It was due to the trust and conndenes that the pastor inspired in the minds of his parish toners that this great increase was brought about They saw immediate ly that he was a financier of no mean ability and at once rallied to his sup port in financial matters. By this liberality the church parish debt has been wiped out.
 Fr. Bedard not long ago assumed a new burden. the building of suit able rectory. He has the building completed now and 1t stands as a memorial to his energy and effort for the betterment of conditions. This new building replaced the old wooden structure that had been in use since 1855. Like the old first church the old rectory has now become tene- ment houes located on Van den Noort street,
 Aside from the new reetory prob ably the greatest improvement to the parish has been the renovation of the church. now one of the most beautiful in the state The seats were found to be old and most uncomfortable and these were soon discarded and re- placed by new ones. New carpets were also laid This was followed by the re-decoration of the interior of the church and the installation of new lighting system. This work en- taiiaa considerable exnense and

Barber Says Some 50
Tons Of Human Hair
Burned Here YEARLY

What becomes of all the hair
clipped from Omaha mems heads
in the course of yearl
This question was propounded to
q barber at Nineteenth and Farnam
streets and he replied that the hair
is burned up.
" saved up all the human hair
that was clipped in my barber shops
some years ago for two years." he
said, "and I bought hair from other
barber shops because 4 man agreed
to buy>it from me. He said he
could sell it in St. Louis.
II had about two tons when he
found that there was no market for
it. Human hair breaks and deteri-
crates rapidly. 1t is not good, as
some people believe, to put in >plas-
ter. For one thing, it is too short
and for another, it hasn't got the
strength. All the BARRIERS of Oma-
ha do with it, is burn it up"
This barber estimates that about
50 tons of hair are grown on the
beans" of Omaha men in the
course of year.
This is figured at the rate OF one
pound per man and deducting for
such persons as ex-Mayor Dahlman.

Melodrama While You
Eat in Lunch Room Of
Big Department Store

Someone wrote years ago that
the misfortunes Of others offer op-
portunities for merriment. We
know that when 4 person slips on a
banana peeling and upsets his or her
equanimity, spectators are sure to
laugh, and the same may be said of
the fat man chasing his straw hat
on a warm day.
The following incident occurred
in the lunch room of an Omaha de-
partment store last week, during the
MONDAY Christmas shopping rush.
A waitress, carrying a tray laden
with dishes of soup, coffee, pie and
other orders, was moving between
the small tables, her mind evidently
speculating on what her sweetheart
would give her for Christmas. She
tripped against one of the table
legs and. with the tray, went down
with dull thud. Her downfall was
so complete that patrons could not
restrain their feelings, although they
sympathized with the unfortunate
girl. The manner in which some
women moved to escape the oncom-
ing deluge added to the merriment
OF those who were on the side
lines.
A mere boy, sitting with his
mother, remarked, ma, could you
do that?"
Then to make the scene more
dramatic, woman tainted and was
carried to the rest room by two
strong men.
