Salvation Army workers in this city are ready to do their part if each cfti- zen is willing to do his in bringing joy and good cheer to the homes of needy residents of Putnam. The army kettle was out on Wednesday to receive con tributions and will be out on Front street again today. The army workers have made careful canvass to locate the needy and their requirements for a hap py holiday. All the generous person has to do is drop in the money; the ar my workers will do the rest.
 A great many sales but smaller in amount than was the case last year was the report made by one of Putnam's l leading merchants in. discussing the holiday trade Wednesday. The spirit of Christmas is fully as alive as ever, all though expenditures may be somewhat restricted from the somewhat extrava- gant standards of the war years. | Farmers all through this territory are i faverably impressed with the plan to have the next general assembly author l ize the establishment of a state con stabu1ary, which will include among it's duties the protection of gardens. or chards and all farm property from raids l by persons who act as though every | thing in sight were theirs for the talk l ing Farmers hereabouts have suffered much from these raiders. many of I whom get out into the country districts i in their automobiles.
