Several boxers of French-C Canadian stock have won their bit of fame and fortune in the squared circle. but none has shot to the pinnacle as has Jack Delaney, prince of light heayies, who meets King Solomon in twelve-round bout at the big State Armory m Hart ford. Monday evening, April 26.
 Delaney, whose right name in Chap delaine. got the ring name of Jack Delaney when an announcer, strug- gling with the moniker of Ghapde- laine. made it Jack Delaine it sounded like Jack Delaney, and from that night forth 1t has been so.
 When Jack did battle on the night that the announcer miscalled his name, t didn't make much difference for De laney was then fourth rater, light ing for a few dollars against an un- known from the sticks.
 It's different now, for Delaney stands in the forefront of the world s fighters today. and his name Is a mag ic wand that waves the fans ID great number to any arena where be is dls- playing his hstis wares.

IN MEMoRIAM

In Memory of our beloved husband and father. Eugene Caumond of Put. nam. who died April 20, 1925. Today recalls sad memories, Of loved one called to rest; Those who miss him most today Are the ones who loved him best. The years may wipe out many things, But this they'll wipe out never; The memory of the happy days, When we were all together. The flowers We place upon his grave May wither and decay; But the love We bore for him, Will never fade away.
 WIFE AND SON.

The common council. with one dis sentng vote, has put itself on record as favoring daylight saving for Put nam At its adjourned meeting. Tues day evening, the council voted to rec ommeud that the city go on daylight saving time. Those present were May or CnapaeIaI4a5 Alderman at large Richard, Aldermsn 4.e ITS, Ames, Car roll, Dubois, and Ryan. The only op- position to the recommendation was from Alderman Rogers. who voted an emphatic No"
 The council did not pass the matter as an ordinance, nor is 1t in any way binding upon the citizens of Putnam. There has been a feeling of uncertain y for some days as to what Putnam was going Co do. iu view of the fact that all other cities and most towns. from Worcester to New London, and from Boston to Hartford. would be on daylight saving time, Putnam being the only city that had taken mo action or even publicly discussed the subject. IL Was the attitude et those who ad= dressed the council. and the council members themselves, except Alderman Rogers. that Putnam was virtually forced to adopt daylight saving for business reasons and that it might keep in fne with the ether cities of the state.
 Address the Council
 Shortly after the council convened T II. deCoudres of the Putnam Cham ber of Commerce stated that there were several gentlemen present inter ested Tn what position the council was going to take in the matter of day light saving. He said he did not know the attitude Of those Co whom he al= luded.
 O. E. Wulf took the floor and said that personally he did not care If Put nam remained on standard time, but that all of the towns around Putnam are on daylight saving time, Daniel son. Willimantie. and the states of Rhode Island and Massachusetts-al of the towns except Putnam. He saia that he read au editorial in state pa= per to the effect that all cities in the state except Putnam had taken up the matter of daylight saving.
