TAKES A PUTNAM BRIDE
Armand Cote of Pawtucket Marries
 Miss Blanche Charpentier

Monday morning at o'clock at St. Mary's church took place the we'd ding of Miss Blanche Charpentier, daughter of Mir. and Mrs Vineeslas Charpentier of this city, to Armand Cote. son of Mir. and Mrs. Frank Cote of Pawtucket, R. l. Rev. Arthur Routhier performed the nuptial eere- mony, which took place in the sane tuary, the bride being a member of the Children of Mary The Nine O. clock choir sang St. Michaels mass and at the otfertory Miss Gallant sang Luigi Luazi's Ave Maria
 Miss Fedora Charpentier, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid, and Omer Cote acted as best man. Misses Leona Dupre and Gertrude Plessis, both members of the Children of Mary, were maids of honor.
 The bride was charming in dark blue "Poiret Etoilee suit and gray hat with coral pink trimmings. She car ried a shower bouquet of white roses. The bridesmaid wore dark blue serge suit with hat of henna shade and carried large bouquet of pink roses,
 After the ceremony, the reception took place at the home of the brides parents. and wedding breakfast was served to all guests including near relatives of both families. Mir. and Mrs. Cote were the recipients of many beautiful gifts. After we'd ding trip to New York, they will make their home in Pawtueket, where the bridegroom is employed
Putnam patriot., 1921-04-29

Throughout New England, the re- turn of spring is associated with the Towering of the Trailing Arbutus. Since the Pilgrims first saw this lovely plant exactly three hundred springs ago, at Plymiuth. and named 1t the Mayf1ower, it's color and fragrance have brought delight to millions of our people.
 Perhaps no other plant, by reason of the destruction which it's beauty has brought upon it, has so forcibly drawn the attention of thoughtful per- sons to the need for conservation re- quired by many of our wild flowers as has the Arbutus. In the vicinity of our larger cities, it is now to be found only in rare and hidden localities. Around New York, and Boston, and Washington, indeed, it is scarcely to be found at all. Around our health resorts, through intensive picking for sale to inv1ids and other guests, great beds of Arbutus that formerly four ished in the surrounding woods have been completely wiped out.
 Connecticut is to be congratulated on having taken the lead in the pro tection of the Arbutus by law. Gen eral Statute 6276 provides a fine for any one who shall destroy, pull up or sell or offer for sale any Trailing Ar butus taken from land of another per son. But in spite of the law, the Ar butus is markedly on the decline even in Connecticut, especially near the cities
 The growth of the plant is very pre- carious. It spreads slowly, the pros trate leafy stems trailing over ground and taking root; and it seems not to spread by seed over any considerable distances. It is exacting in it's soil re- lations, requiring an acid soil and the presence of certain soil fungi upon which it's roots are dependent for their proper development. Failure to take account of these peculiar rela- tions is doubtless responsible for the lack of success which almost invaria- bly attends attempts to cultivate or even to transplant the Arbutus.
 The flowers grow so near the ground that it is difficult to pick them without injury to the roots or to the trailing

KNIGHTS GATHER IN THREAD
 CITY
San Jose Council Passes the 500 Mark
 District Exceeds Quota

Putnam Knights were prominent participators at the banner day Tn the history of San Jose Council, K. of C., at Willimantic last Sunday. The council passed the 800 membership mark, now being the largest fraternal organization in the Thread City.
 A statewide campaign for new membefs in the organization started in October ended recently. The quota for District No 1, including councils of Wauregan, Putnam, Danielson, Moosup, was 315, and that number was exceeded by twenty. The quota for San Jose Council was ninety and an even hundred members had reeeiv= ed the first and second degrees of the order at the time of initiation. Sun day afternoon, the ceremonies of the third degree were eXemplified on thirty-nine candidates at the town hall at 3 o'clock. Over 300 visiting knights were present from all over eastern Connecticut. The work was in charge of District Deputies Edward W. Mul- Ian of Putnam and John F. Hennon of Jewett City. The floor work was car ried out by the Westerly, R. l., degree team. Following the ceremonies the visiting knights were entertained with music and luncheon. The present membership of San Jose Council is l 505.
