Second Year of Award.
GROSVENORDALE WOMAN
 HURT WHEN MOTORS COLLIDE

Mrs. Charles J. Cournoyer of Gros- venordale received deep cuts in her head Sunday night when a car driven by her husband, while enroute from Grosvenordale to Webster, was. 1t Is stated. struck from behind by a ma chine driven by Frank K. Meifer, 6 Harris street, Webster.
 Both machines were badly damaged and had to be towed to Webster. The accident occurred at the corner of Brandon road on Chase avenue. The Cournoyer machine was forced over to the side of the road and Mrs. Cour- noyer was thrown from the machine and her head struck one of the railings on the side of the road, which are used to fence off the road from the French River, which runs parallel with the road there for some distance. The rail alone saved Mrs. Cournoyer from being plunged into the water, which is about eight feet deep at that point Cournoyer told the police that he was driving along Chase avenue and just as he was passing the inter section of Brandon road the other ma chine made the corner and hit his machine in the rear. Chief of Police James F. Heatherman of Webster is Investigating the case.

ELKS' CAR STILL
 LACKS CLAIMANT
No One Has Yet Produced Tick ct For Winning Number.
 Lodge Must Hold Car
Torn Ticket Found on Field Awards
 Watch and Chain

Naturally on Sunday morning, after the close of the Eiks' Fair. everyone in Windham County who had not att asking who was the winner of the first prize six cylinder Buick touring car, for which thousands of chances had been sold. But the name of the win- ner was not forthcoming. for the hold CT of the winning ticket, A-i9.965. has not yet made his appearance.
 The failure of the holder of the ticket to show himself has left the Putnam Elks with the car on their hands for an indefinite time. They must hold the car. and yet the winner may. like many hundreds of others who bought tickets, have thrown his stubs away and the real winner may never be revealed. No one is more anxious to find the winner than ara the members of Putnam Lodge thenr- selves.
 Ticket Sold on Grounds
 There is every evidence that the winning ticket was one of those sold on the fair grounds. Boys who have, been spending every waking hour carefully searching the grounds have already found the two tickets number ed A-i9,963 and A-i9,e6a. But tho winning ticket is still in the darkness.
 Another development of the prize situation nearly ended in the Elks having gold watch and chain left on their hands. This prize was won by ]. Diggett of Goodyear. Mir. Diggett was not at the fair when the awards were made. but gave his tickets 70 his brother, who was member of t.ie dance orchestra. Not recognizing any of the numbers called as tallying with those which he held, Mir. Diggett's brother tore up the tickets and threw one-half of them away. It was not until Monday that he realized that the half of the tickets he held at home numbered among them the ticket win ming the watch and chain. He found that his ticket did not have the num- Der or all of his name on 1t, so he then sought the Elks' field with his broth CT and there found the missing half of his torn ticket on the ground. He Is now wearing the watch and chain.

STATE TREASURER
 WINS HIGH PRAISE
,..oe;ates at Hartford Praise C. Harold Cilpatric For
 Handling of Funds
IL. Completely Revised Bookkeeping e~.,.m During Term In Office
By
 "MORTLAkE" s..ei.l Correspondence to The Put nam Patriot

Hartford, July 13.-The financial
 ..sart of the state for the fiscal year. ,,.sieh closed June 30, contains fig ,.-.s which show the magnitude of the S,s;ness of the state treasurer's of scs. The receipts for the year ann s-'ounted to s22, ,220,27s, an increase ~ 225.545 over those of the pre- ,.aus year. The payments by the t-easurer made a total of s2l, ,203,- a-7 an increase of S766.l67 The tandling of these funds with absolute seruracy is Q tribute to the efficiency of the system of accounting in the .reasurer's office which has been es- tablished by the present treasurer, G. Harold Gilpatric of Putnam.
 When Mr. Gilpatric, who is now .sr,ing his third term in the office, entered on his duties in 1919, he found as antiquated system of book keeping in the department. So far as the work of the treasurer's office was concerned 1t produced accurate results hut in the general financial affairs of the state government t did not make for efficiency. In a word. the system uas not up-to-date. Its shortcomings soon became apparent to MT. Gilpatric. and the application of an effective remedy followed his recognition of them. Mir. Gilpatrie is to be given particular credit for the admirable manner in which he has fioated bonds and invested the proceeds of their safe. As a rule a bond issue is lia- bility, but Mir. Gilpatric has handled the issue of bonds in such a manner as 10 make the bonds an asset. He has done this by selling the proceeds of four per cent bonds in securities which yield four and quarter per cent.
 Though the bonded indebtedness of over 5000 .000 seems large. 1t is not a financial burden to the state and there is no longer a necessity for the legislature to make provision at ey- cry session for the redemption of the bonds The sinking fund Of sll ,eoe,- r GOO is amply able. with it's earnings. to take care of the entire bonded in- debtedness and to redeem every bond on maturity. MT. Gilpatrie, at the end of his present term, will have served the state as treasurer for six success i've years. No other state treasurer has had that distinction for ninety years. Mir. Gilpatric deserves it.

SHAKESPEARE IN COURT
James Heinan, 70, Is Still a Philo-
 sophie Bohemian

A somewhat literary session of the city court occurred this morning when James Heinan. aged 70 years, was brought before Judge Geissler charged with drunkenness. Heinan was found early this morning com muning with the muses in front of the National Bank After a nights rest he appeared before the court little the worse for wear. But the Bo- hemian spirit still prevailed. When the judge. regarding Heinan with a kindly eye, remarked on the pitiable condition of a man of three scores and ten, under arrest, penniless and friendless, and asked the prisoner if he did not think that he had made Ii rather sorry mess of his life, Heinan replied with a quotation from Shakes peare to the effect that Life is only a castle in the air." Twenty dollars and costs.

Despite the fact that it has been re- peatedly announced in the local pa- pers that the handsome new wall De- ing erected at the Day kimbail Hos pital along the state highway has been built by the state in an effort to eliminate the danger at this point, there appears to be an impression that the wall, a rather expensive construc- ton. was erected by the hospital it- self. This is not the case. The nos pItai has too many needs at the pres ent time to spend any money en many needed improvements to the grounds. The wall was built by the state with out any expense whatever to the hos pital proper.
