PUTNAM

Trailing after their pennant4bearers at the head of the column. the first bat talon, Seventh United States Field Ar tillery, arrived in this city just before the noon hour Monday and quickly dis posed themselves about Tatem field. where they were scheduled to remain until this CTuesday) morning. when they will again take up their overland journey to Camp Devens, Mass.
 The outfit broke camp at Brooklyn early Monday morning. after spending Saturday afternoon and Sunday at the fair grounds and leisurely made it's way over to Danielson.~ From that place the route to Putnam was via Maple street, northward by what is known as the Goodyear route to Dayville, up past All exanders lake and Attawaugan cross ing to Whites crossing, past the Putnam Country club and into this city by Park and South Main street. This route was taken to avoid as much as might be possible the hard surfaced state high ways, which are bad for the feet of the horses and mules, of which about 300 are with the battalion.
 All along the route from Brooklyn to Putnam the regular army men were watched with interest. The soldiers made a spectacular sight, as they fol- lowed their way along the roads and their passing was reminiscent of the wartime movies showing troops on the move here and lover there"
 The long columns of mounted men. the guns, the army wagons, the ammunition wagons and other equipment that is in- cluded In the battery's makeup, was suggestive of war days.
 The battalion will arrive at Camp Devens the latter part of this week and will remain there for the summer. Off, fcers and men of the command have had an interesting experience travelling over the country from Camp Dix, N. J., into this northeastern corner of Connec- ticut
 This (Tuesday) morning the soldiers will be on their way early and will cross into Massachusetts within two hours af- ter leaving this city.
