The charmlngly appointed one
O'clock luncheon given on Thursday
at the home of Mrs Frank A. David
by the members of the Hi Yu club
in honor of Mrs. Charles G. Swami,
one of their former members, who
has recently returned to Moscow, was
one of the delightful affairs of the
week. All of the members who are
in the city were present. Miss Freda
Marie Soulen was a guest. The rooms
of the David home were artistically
decorated in keeping with this, the
Valentine season. The air redolent
with the fragrance of beautiful red
carnations, while bright red hearts
seemed to be everywhere. The Valen-
tine idea was carried out in the menu
as we'll as the decorations. The
dainty five-course luncheon was fault
iessly served The afternoon was
spent in sewing and in social chat.
The pie social given by the Ameri-
can Legion Auxiliary on Tuesday
evening in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms was quite success financi-
ally and genuine success when the
good time part came. The evening
was spent socially, the pies were sold
member of the auxiliary was also
asked to bring dollar and tell in
rhyme how it was earned, the one hav-
ing the best rhyme to receive a prize.
Mrs. William Marsh wlked off with |
the prize on the following rhyme, |
which perhaps was really how the |
most of the dollars were earned:
How I earned my dollar, that's easy |
to write,
How l got my dollar, much harder to
recite;
Washing and scrubbing day after day,
Should entitle women to draw some
pay.
Sweeping and cleaning, all over the
house,
'Tis without pay to a good spouse;
Good old cooking from sun to sun,
Another possibility to get us some
mon.
Washing and ironing, makes Monday |
so blue,
For this I get nothing; neither do $
you;
How got my dollar have to con-
TESS,
From my husband-just like the rest. !
The Auxiliary ladies are planning
some interesting work for the future
so men don't be discouraged; these
women think that perhaps they may
yet be able to earn money without q
asking hubble for the next dollar II !,

APPOINT MISS SHIELDS
New Haven Woman to Teach Blind
 People in This County

The State Board of Education of the Blind has appointed Miss Frances Shields of New Haven as a home teacher, and has assigned her to work in the counties in this state east Of the Connecticut River. Miss Shields will 20 about and visit blind persons in their homes and will teach them to read with their fingers and to make useful articles of reed and raffia, as we'll as knitted, croeheted and sewed articles.
 There are about 900 blind persons in this state who are past fifty years of age. 1t is in order to bring some comfort and peace of mind, as well as financial return, to this older group of blind persons that this work has been started. The articles they make under the direction of the home teach CT are taken by the State Board and sold. and the full price that IS paid for an article is given to the blind person who made it.
 Service of thiE sort IS rendered without charge to any blind person Tn the state. The State Board of Ednca- tion of the Blind carries on various activities for the blind, and anyone who will write to the board at Room 64. State Capitol, Hartford, can re- ceive further particulars.

POLICE LODGE 2e TRAMPs
Given Bed For Night at Station
 They Tell Interesting Stories

There was one four word notation at the bottom of Captain of Police Jarvis monthly report, presented to the mayor and common council Tues day night, that, to many people, Is a barometer of New England industrial conditions during this period when plants are on short time or closed down temporarily. This notation read: Twenty-niue tramps lodged.
 There were among the twenty-nine a number of down-and- cutters who are content to knock-about and eke out an existence as best they can. There were others who work awhile. save a bit and then loaf until their cash is gone. Unable to replenish their supply they are forced to seek shelter for the night at the police station.
 And then there were the men who honestly sought work and in their quest. arrived in Putnam. Their present situation is truly sorry one, but because they are persistent and willing. in ali probability they will find work, doubtless have by now and are nc longer in need of police sheltefing when night closes the blinds on a toilworn and weary world.
 This phase of police work is indeed interesting and when there is time, Q story of gripping interest. filled with romance, pathos and adventure, may be drawn. by careful questi0ninQ, from almost any one of those who appear for q nights lodging. 4 tramp may be the most uninteresting indl- xicual imaginable, and yet ke may be the most entertaining fellow one meets

LIVELY ARGUMENT
 ENLIVENS MEETING
Aldermen Discuss Petition Ask ing For Permit to Erect
 Gasoline Tank
Referred to Highway Committee Elect Wallace Jones Truck Driver


 There was friendly, though never theless earnest, if not spirited. discus sion at Tuesday nights common coun- ell meeting over the question of isSu- ing 8 permit for the erection of gas. ohne tanks in front of the newly lo- eated Putnam Auto Station. of which Henry Dubois Is proprietor.
 Alderman Edmund Dubois spoke in behalf Of the petitioner. saving that the tanks had been put in and S20O worth of cement work done, after a permit had been granted to go ahead by the state police. The petitioner was not aware that permit had to be sought from the city. as the garage fronts on a state highway. and in such cases state officials approve or disap- prove of the erection of a gas tank.
 Opposed 10 Petition
 zAlderman-at-large Richard contend. ca that the tanks stood on what would probably be, some day in the not far distant future. the sidewalk. There IS no sidewalk on that side of School street now. Mir Richard said he was looking to the future in making his protest. and as city ordinances spe- officially state that no more gas tanks shall be installed on the sidewalks. he believed that the council should not grant the permit.
 Further discussion was cut short by the vote to refer the matter Q the highway committee for investigation.
 k. B. Kent. speaking on behalf of the tax assessors, who were present. informed the council that an error had been made in figuring the valua- ton of the property of the Putnam Mfg. Co. He said that 5000 had been added to the figure through er- TOT. He recommended that this sum be deducted from the concerns assess ment. and that $44 in taxes be rebated. Mir. Kent explained that similar action had already been taken by the select men of the town. The council adopted the assessors recommendation.
 Appoint Wallace lone.
 Wallace Jones. who last month was elected a member of the Hook and Ladder Company of the city fire de- partment, succeeding Joseph Page, re signed was confirmed as such by vote of the council on recommendation of Chief Thurston and the fire committee of the common council Mir. Jones was also named by the council to be driv- CT of the truck. taking the place of the late Joseph Welch.
 A permit to build house, barn and garage on Church street was granted Emanuel Hemingway. The follow ing petitions were referred to the highway committee with power to act: Mrs. J. W. Fuller to erect three-ear garage at s6 Wilkinson street; Emery Marion. to build an addition on the building at 346 Main street; Putnam Aerie of Eagles. to alter, enlarge and improve the building on Providence street recently purchased as the fu- ture home of the Aerie.

That the scarlet fever situation m Putnam is dangerous is the belief ex- pressed by the school physician. Dr. C. T. Iamarche. At present there are at least twenty cases in Putnam and new ones are being reported dai ly. The malady, however, is in mild form.
 Dr. Lamarche urges parents to keep their children out of school at the slightest siRn of illness, and to report 70 the family physician. Dr. Lamarche says that fl Is because of the negligence of parents, in not call ing a doctor when their children show signs of illness, that the disease spreads.
