 The invocation was given by Rev Charles r Bedard, pastor Of St. Mary's church, who asked blessing for the bridge.
 Applaud Commissioner
 The appearance of Highway Com missioner John 4. Macdonald. R for mer Putnam boy and we'll known Co most of our citizens, was the signal for applause. The citizens had learn ed that Co Commissioner Macdonald they are much indebted for his sug- gestion that the bridge be n memorial bridge, planning the structure accord ingiy, setting the time limit on the contract to be completed Armistice Day, and giving much personal atten- ton to the erection of the bridge.

The offi- cerS were received ty the reception committee and entertained at lunch cen at the Putnam Inn The hotel had prepared for the unusual rush of busi- ness and took care of the guests most satisfactorily.
 The Mess Hall
 Down in the old silk mil on South Meadow street Walter \. King and his corps of lady assistants from sev- eral womens organizations had charge of feeding the visitors. This WIS a large task. but the provision made in advance allowed the mess hall, to work smoothly. Box lunches. nearly a thousand of them. had been assembled and packed by the commit tee. Large kettles of steaming coffee were ready for the first arrivals. There was plenty and to spare. Most of the organizations were fed upon arrival. Many made second trips af- ter the parade had disbanded Still the food remained adequate and some ol the lunches re used to hand out to soldiers remaining for the dance in Odd Fellows hall The culinary de partment was as well handled as were all other departments.
 People Line Streets
 The streets were lined with people as early as one o'clock. although the tima set for starting the parade was .45. Ali along the route the parade WAS to pass early coniers sought points 1l vantage. Men. women and children made a solid val of humanity along miles of city streets.
 Becomes Active
 Marshal John Moss became active shortly after eae o'clock. He had a responsible and difficult part in the aaY,s program to get the various units into an orderly procession. He did 1t and he got the parade under way on ame. with the help ef his aides and assistants. By this time bands were playing and soldiers march

 Thirty seconds ef silence follow ed thls ceremony after which taps were sounded.
 Address of the Day
 The band played another number and again the scene shifted back to the speakers stand. Captain John H O'Rrlen of Worcester, the speaker of the day. an orator of great power and magnetism, delighted the hun drcds in his audience who listened in~ tently as. without note or prepara- sion. with great rhetorical effect, and with a wonderful personal magnetism. he spoke to the people in such vein that a lasting seed of renewed patro- tsm was planted within the hearts of all. Tue choice of Captain 0'Brien was a most happy one and the com mittce on speaker of the day. X. New ion Vaughn. a personal friend of Cap tain O'Brien. is deserving of the ere dit for giving the people of Putnam and their guests this great oratorical treat

cester: Alderman F. C. Rogers, Geo. L. Padgett. A E. Macdonald
 Landlord Rogers served most ex- cellens dinner. In his remarks the toastmaster alluded to it's quality and the fact that Mir Rogers made th Governors reception possible.
 Credits commissiener
 The toastmaster said that there were to be no speeches. but that he wanted to say a word of appreciation of the culmination that all have looked for. ward to for the past seven years. I've have dedicated a memorial to our boys" he said, and stated that until the suggestion came from Highway Commissioner John A. Macdonald to make the bridge a fitting memorial, lit tie had been done except that the mat ter had been talked over in groups. The toastmaster said that when the suggestion came 1t met with hearty approval and 1t has been dedicated As a representative of the citizens. he said, turning to the governor, Put nam wants Co extend its thanks and appreciation for your coming, and the coming of others. that made the oh servanee possible, also the coming 0f Captain O'Brien. This entertainment we have been able to provide was made possible by Mr Rogers. Again We thank you for what you have done for us We will welcome you at any time as an organization or as individuals. The toastmaster then asked the Gov ernor to say a few words.
 Ths Governor. speaking informally, said that he wished to state to the citizens of Putnam, and that he knew he eoieed the sentiments Of all others present. that they were glad to have a small part in the exercises of the day. He said that Putnam has memorial that will go down in history and who- ever crosses the bridge will see the evidence of the fact that Putnam did it's part. That many of its young men came back. but some that went away made the supreme sacrifice. He said that there are thousands of men ready 10 spring up and into the breach at any crisis to uphold the principles Of this great country. The Governor ex- pressed 1t as his opinion that m any future wars all industry as well as all persons will be drafted. This Is as it should be-" he said. flor wars are eyerybody's wars. and during such all are working for one great, grand and glorious purpose-to uphold the Stars and Stripes.
 Captain John H. 0Brien was asked to give the goodnight toast. Prefix ing this toast with bit of oratory that was listened to in rapt attention, he said. Take your glasses, no matter what they contain. and rise. The gathering arose and the American Le- zion toast was given as never heard before in the town of Putnam.

By 9 o clock hundreds of American flags were flying from staffs along the main streets of the city, from public and private buildings, and from pri- vate dwellings. Lanes of flags through out the main streets of the city made a delightful innovation from the old style of decorating. The plan chosen by the merchants committee was en- dorsed and praised by the citizens and bv the visitors.
