 N. Y, N. H.. q II. BACK TO STEAM

Continued from Page 0ne) nearly as many as those in seats. Be that as il may. last week Tuesday the little bus did not make the run. 4 younger but bigger brother appeared in the little fellows stead.
 The new bus had 9 seating capacity of seventy-three passengers, thirty more than the little bussiet, IL was not only larger but more improved. It could be operated from either end like a trolley car, avoiding the necessity of sending t up to the wye in the Putnam yard to be turned around.
 After the big brother appeared the little brother disappeared. Inquiry revealed that the busslet had been sent over the line into the Bay State and was bussing passengers from Webster to Southbridge and SOuthbridge to Webster.
 Railroad men uicknamed the forty three passenger bus. Spark Plug and from this to giving the motorman. or engineer. or whatever his official title may be, the sobriquet of Barney Google was but a natural step.
 And again little attention was paid to the situation which, 1t was thought, had passed from the importance of news copy to only a routine of travel over the rails. But that is where the newspaper gem had miseue in his think tank.
 Happening 10 a.k after Spark Plug one day this week, and inquiring if his oats and drink were agreeing with him. it was q surprise to learn that Sparkey had gone to the hospital and was under the care of the F. F. veter- marian with his wrenehes and ham mers. etc cetera. What was the com plaint? "No complaint: everybody satisfied" was the railroad mans re- ply. And about the little brother over in the Bay State? was the next in- quiry. "0h! He's in the next ward to Spark Plug, in the iniirmary,' came shooting back.
 So the unusual sound of the unusual whistle is no more heard. The old lo- comotive comes missing up the line in the a. m., and starts out with steam blowing off in the p. m. Pistons well oiled. bunker full of coal, boiler full of water, passengers good natured. All aboard for Danielson. Jewett City, Taftville, Norwich and New London, ]" calls a real conductor Of a real train. and q real engineer on real engine pulls open the throttle. And the gas bus and the gas busslet are again off the run per order, until further no- tice."

STEAL WATCHDOG
 GUARDIAN OF FLOCK
Poultry Thieves Decapitate Heads of 77 Chickens On
 Second Visit
Woodstoek Farmer Decides 10 Quit
 Sells Remaining Hens

Lightning may not strike twice in the same place but poultry thieves do. Tuesday morning, December le, Louis Parshley. farmer on the road from Woodstock to Southbridge, awoke to find the heads of many of his chick ems strewn about the yard and the poultry gone. Last Friday morning he again found chiekenless heads in his yard. Seventy-seven of his flock had disappeared all but their combs, bills and 6 steenth part of their neeks. Enough is enough thought Louis. He has now outwitted all hen thieves by selling all of his hens.
 After the first depreciation in his chicken yard Louis purchased a watch dog. Apparently the watch dog was fond of chicken thieves. The thiev- es had no trouble with the dog and took him for ride in their auto mobile toward Webster Nearing the village they let the dog go. II anyone wants to buy a watch deg Louis hasn't one for sale. judging from the dog past performance.
 It is believed by officers taEt the stolen poultry was taken to Webster as was the case in the instance of the December thefts.

BIG PUTNAM RALLY

Charlie Murphy Scores Four Field Goals In Last Four
 Minutes
Final Score is-i5-Close Guard
 Work and Poor Shooting

Charlie Murphy, substitute forward and Tom Cody. worked together nice ly in the final period of the Windhamz Putnam game at the high school gym Hasium Friday evening, overcoming q seven point lead of the visitors. and giving Putnam q winning margin Of three points, and an eighteen to fir teen victory.
 There were but three and a half minutes to 20 when Murphy first slipped clear of the Niadham defense and tossed in a field goal after driabl- ing the length of the floor with 10 opz position. Putnam was still five point behind, fifteen to ten. Twice nor. Charlie took the bal down the floor for scores. and then Tom Cody put Putnam into the lead with two sue eessfui free throws. To insure the victory Murphy caged another two point shot just before Che final whis- Gle It was Putnam's finest rally of the season.
 h the first quarter q long field goal by Tom Cody gave Putnam two points. while Windham made two from the foul line. In the next period Windham forged ahead with two field goals. while Putnam was held score less, and at the half fed six to two. In the third quarter this lead was further increased. and stood 15 te with the final period about half over Both teams had been playing tight guard ing and both had missed many shots at the basket.
 Wiudham was playing five men up in a scrimmage under it's own basket. leaving a clear floor for Charlie Mur- phys exploits once he was started. These four baskets were all that sav- ed Charities name and reputation. for before he started on his rampage. he had missed seven free throws in eight chances.
 Captain Sid King and Shave" Bar Der played excellent guard game for Putnam. Smith and Usher did the best work for the losers Dodge, center for Windham. was unable to accomplish much in spite ef his great height.

 Where Genius DwelIs
 There is an idea that genius lives in garrets. Where, one asks, do all those lights of the stage and the con- cert hall dwell? Greenwich Nillagel Never Greenwich Village, let it be known, has fallen from grace. IL ceased Co be an artistic quarter when the fakirs arrived, the short haired young women and the long haired young men who sit about purple and yellow tables in pink and mauve eel lars and drink moonshine and talk about that subject of which they know the least,-art. The real artists of the stage and the exhibition rooms and the concert hall, do not live In the garrets of the "Village" or any other village. Most of them live in comfortable and well ordered homes for the successful artist is most orderly Bohemian.
 The other day a friend invited us to q lunch in a tiny but dellghtful little apartment away uptown just over the top of Lenox Hill in dis trict largely listed in the Social Regis ter rather than In the magazines or the theatre. As we entered the hall way towards the tiny French lift we heard a piano being played in most authoritative style.< When Che little lift came down out stepped an actor known not only to New York but to all the Engiish speaking world, On the way up we heard violin being played only as a certain Russian can play t. In the little studio apartment at the top of the house, occupied by our friend. we lunehcd deliciously in most comfortable surroundings at a long refectOry ta1ir about which were grouped 2 weil-known character act ress and now librettist. Our host F an author of ability. He explaine l the apartment 1t is the home Of artistic folk who are artists. They were as far removed on the city 3 map from the pseudo artistic circles of Greenwich village as was the ilne- ness of their accomplishment from the antics of the Villagers.
 More and More Plays
 We went the other night to see again the play that We consider the seasons best. "They Knew What They Wanted" the Sidney Howard piece which the Theatre Guild has so admirably produced with Richard Bennett and Pauline Lord in the leading roles. The second view com frmed and strengthened our opinion and we give it another emphatic re commendation. "They Knew What They Wanted" is a good play superbly acted.
 Another pleasant play we saw moi long ago was that fine actress, Blanche Bates, in a gentle comedy of family life and manners entitled Mrs. Partridge Presents" Mrs. Partridge had two children. son and daugn- ter, whom she determined should bt
