DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS

Boston last week, with representatives of this branch of business present from all sections of New England, one of the announcements of special interest was that of the award of prizes in the State seal popularity contest. The state seals were repli- cas, wrought in hardware articles en- tirely, of New England state seals, the award in the case of Connecticut going to E. H. Reach Of Danielson.

The Putnam line with difficulty, was kept open and regular sefvice maintained, until afternoon and then had to be | abandoned.
 Between Danielson and points south | the highways are again terribly drift 1 ed and the arduous task of breaking them must be practically done all | over again.

 shopping trips except when it is ab-
 solutely necessary.

 dication of doing to date, and the first of March is here!
