FIRE STAGED FOR

It Wasn't Really, But Served

strating Efficiency
Wa. Pleased With the Get Away" of
the Department Tuesday Morn
ing

A representative of the fire under
writer's came to Putnam Tuesday
morning to look over the local situa-
ton. One of the things he was inter
ested in was how quickly the fire de-
partment could get out after an
alarm was sounded. He was told
that from one to five minutes was the
average, but Mr.. Underwater was
skeptical when he returned to the
Putnam Inn.
Within half an hour the alarm
sounded for the fire on Bullock street.
The underwater was sitting in the
lobby of the Putnam Inn next door to
fire headquarters. The stage was
therefore all set for chance for him
to see and be convinced or to have his
doubts substantiated.
The alarm was sounding for the
second time when the truck pulle I
out of headquarters. 1t was most
perfect getaway and after the fire
was all over Mr.. Underwater told an
official that it was fine response AMI
that he was ready to take his hat off
to the department if they could re-
peat.
1t is hoped that the underwrite-
will make favorable report and that
the insurance rates will be advance

conditions were complied with.

Putnam May Get Lundssrcm Gardner
Match

The cancellation of the Al Lund
strom-Pinkey Gardner wrestling
match that was to be held in Science
tady, N Y, the present week has
caused these two Wrestlers to seek an
other place for their meeting. Gard
ner, who is in Portsmouth, N. H., at
the present time, has suggested that
the match be held in the vici 1ity OF
Lundstrom's home town. Frank Cor
der, who has recently become inter-
ested in an attraction for the benefit
of the Putnam Knights of Columbus,
has already made plans for holding
the match in Putnam, the proceeds to
go to the Knights of Columbus. The
match, if held in Putnam, is sure 70
draw a large crowd, as Lundstrom is
well known in this vicinity, and Gard
ner held the championship of his di-
vision less than a year ago. A large
crowd. of Lunast-om's friends from
the crosvenor-Dales are sure to see
the fray.

AS usual Putnam High outclassed
their neighbors from Woodstock Ac-

the boys from the Hill fought hope
less battle from the start against
Putnam's more experienced players.
Most Of the play was in Woodstock
territory and the teams were not
evenly enough matched to give the
spectators any thrills. 1t was just a
question of how big score Putnam
IEigh would hang up. The final score
was Patnam 40, Woodstock Academy

In a game that was a thriller" to
use the expression adopted by the
movies, Putnam tow nteam lost its
second game last Friday night before
crowd of excited fans. The game
see-sawed itself up to the moment Of
the final whistle, when Dean shot the
winning basket. Outsiders, who held
their watches on the overtime play
necessary to decide the contest, say
that it went six minutes instead Of
Ave. Had the whistle blown when
these self-appointed timers declared
time was up, Putnam would have won.
1t was hard fought but clean con-
test and Dean broke the ice very ear
ly and ran up six points before Put
nam broke in. When the town team
did make start there was no stopping
them until they had run up ten points.
Then Dean got busy again and be-
gan shooting sntil the final whistle
found the score IL to Is with Dean
holding the long end.
Early in the second period Shaw
threw foul, tieing the score. From
then on it was first one team and then
the other In the lead. They tied at
20, at %, and, as the final whistle
blew, were tied at 80
1t was agreed that there should be
FIVE minutes of everyday. Dean shot

a foul. 1t was the final basket that

CITY COUNCIL BUYS ,
DETENTION, HOSPITAL
Carter Property on Mississippi
Avenue Will Be Used for
Next Few Months

Following thorough discussion last
evening, the city council authorized
the purchase of the C. S. Carter prop
erty at 623 Mississippi avenue, to be
used during the winter months as a
detention hospital. Protest to the
purchase was entered late Wednesday
at special meeting through resi-
dents of that section of the city, but
since the council was unable to find
a more suitable location at the pres
emit time, the action was taken.
Agreement was made, however,
that the building would be used only
during the winter and for a period
not to exceed three months, at the end
of that period, a more suitable loca-
ton will be found. Permanent prop
erty will then be secured, located far
Their from the residential section OF
the city.
Authorization was granted to put
storm sash on the windows OF the
rooms used by the Civic and Com
merce association, and several other
minor matters were considered.

can leaders Of the house and senate
can discover way out of the tangle
into which a decision to pass an en-
barge tariff bill as relief measure
for farmers has lead them.
The bill will come to the debate
Wednesday, assailed by producers and
manufacturers whom it does not pro-
tect, facing opposition from both Re-
publcans and Democrats in the
house and senate, and also certain of
veto by President Wilson if it should
pass.
Congressional opponents Of the bill
declared it would leave farmers and
manufacturers free to charge as much
as they could get because there would
be no foreign competition in the COM
modities. The measure also has Gre
ated a great clamor among manufac-
turers whose goods are not included
under the bill.

Could Be Part of General
Revision of Tariff,
Says Longworth
ATTACKS FREE TRADE.
PROPOSALS BITTERLY
Republican Trade Program
Give Allies Advantage
Over Others
(By United PresS)

Washington. Dec. PA reci-
procal trade agreement to the allies
to aid them in payment of more than
twelve billions to the United States
government and also interest in this
country, was advocated in the house
today by representatives Nicholas
Longworth, OF Ohio, member Of the
ways and means committee.
Such an agreement he said could
be part of the general revision Of
tariff laws, which he said could be
made high enough to raise $780,
900 ,eO0<more than the present con-
cession or about 100000
The republican trade program
gives the allies advantage over other
nations in the American markets in
exchange for similar concessions
granted the United States.
Attacking free Trade proposals.
Longworth said: 81 do not think it
quite respectable for debtor coun-
try to disregard their debts honor
ably contracted and not to be paid
in full. But if it should eventually
be that the only possible way to col
lect these debts would be to surrend-
er to nations of the world the home
markets of America. i Should say.
let us sacrifice every Cen. owed us
rather than sacrifice cur .ndepend-
ence.r
"President Wilson's proposal that
we take down the bars against the
world in order to enable some ma
lions of Europe to dispose of millions
of dollars worth of goods is against
the record of the American people. y

MAYOR HODGSON EXPLAINS
THE CHRISTMAS CITY,
(By United Press)

St. Paul, Dec. 21.-"The thing
that has earned the name The
Christmas City for st. Paul is the
community spirit" Mayor l.. c.
Hodgson said today.
LET every home take interest in
their neighbors and be good fellows
to the poor, and good will to every
one. Community Christmas pro-
gramsI-the community Christmas
tree helps, but to have the right
spirit at Christmas one must have
the year thru"
The fact that nearly every home
in St. Paul follows the age old GUS
tom of placing lighter candle in
the windows Christmas eve is prob
ably one of the biggest factors in
bringing about the name The
Christmas City he said. He urged
that every city in the country take
up the custom and urged every home
to light candle in the window
