IMPROVES CHURCH
North Grosvenordale.- Reop- ening Service Held Last
 Sunday

Sunday. Sept lg. was a great day at the Methodist Episcopal church. The church for the past six weeks has been closed for repairs A steel eeiing and steel walls in the auditor ium, a hardwood floor in the audi forum and vesuhule, and the new electric lighting system are among the improvements which have been made with an outlay of over SI.70O. 4 fine hymn book and collection plates. the gift of Edward Cassells and wife as memorial to Mrs. Cas- sells father, Luther Nj. Chiids. for many years ehoirister of the church, was greatly appreciated.
 The re-opening service on Sunday morning was largely attended. many coming from Worcester, Putnam, Webster and adjoining towns Bishop John W. Hamilton of Washington. D. C., preached a powerful sermon on the resurrection. Special music by the choir and a duet by Leon Walker of Putnam and Miss Thyra Walker of North Grosvenordale, added much to the enjoyment of the service.
 The bishop al the close of his ser mon called for gifts from the peo- pie to take care of balance of s700 unprovided for to pay the bills in. cured for the repairs. Nearly the full amount needed was given at this ser. vice. and in the evening after another great sermon, against war, the bal ance needed was fully subscribed. Pastor and people are rejoicing in the accomplishment of this great achievement, and are more than grateful to all those whose gifts and offerings have made it possible.

BOOK REVIEW
THE GOLDEN DANCER"
 by Cyril Hume

Every once in a while an author does something out of the ordinary. The result is either that best of literary praise, excellent royalties, or a regret on the part of previous readers that he should depart from the way already made both popular and profitable. Cy- Til Hume is best known for his novel, "The Wife of the Centaur," which en- joyed not little popularity two or three years ago and then went the fa- vorite path of many bad novels and some good ones, into the moving pie ture studios.
 On reading "The Golden Daneer"- which. incidentally, is not the story of an opera favorite, but the pathetic tale of a more than ordinary American citizen ,--one has the feeling that Mir. Hume wrote his book without caring & tuppenee whether his public liked it or not Many will find it trivial, but to us it was charming, a modern idyll. Y here and there a character or sit- uation was overdrawn we did not blame Mr Hume. who made his little factory worker. fleeing the drudgery of the treadmill finds himself in the sort of New England village that has n't existed since the early days Of Mary Wilkins Freeman, a delightful and sympathetic character. There are some pages of truly beautiful prose here. story that Is a miniature of a universal novel and q somewha, uniaue bit of writing which will win MT. Hume more laurels than his far more ponular but more obviously pat termed "Wife of the Centaur"

What The Patriot believes to be the first and most complete account of the Miami hurriean and disaster was received last week in P0mfret from Willem C. van der Laan. now a landscape architect engaged m work at Miami Beach. sr. van der Laan and his wife, who was the former Mrs. Clarence Peckham, and her daughter Sandra Peckham. were oc- cupying an apartment al Miami Beach when the storm broke. MT van der Laan's description of the hurricane is as follows:
 About one o'clock Friday night 1t began to blow considerably. though the ocean was very rough in the after noon, however, everybody was bath ing. Excuse the mistakes. but l am writing by candle and have to say so much that I can not stop to correct them). We closed our windows a little and got up an hour later te close them altogether because the wind was howl in. Soon we heard glass breaking in the other apartments. About , a. m. one of our neighbors knocked on our door to see how We fared and told us that it was not safe to stay in the rooms as the windows could be blown in at any moment. In fact our rooms seemed to be the only ones that did not have the windows blown out. The main hall in the apartment is & few steps down and when we arrived We found everybody from our apart ment house there and about one and lone-half feet of water standing in the lower part of the hall tried to peer out to locate our Ford with the flash light. but did not see sign of it where parked it, so l was sure that fl was blown away.
 After several long hours it at last was daylight and the wind went down. Everybody, of course. was in bathing suits and when the wind was down We could see several people outside. The calm did not last any time. for second storm came up. l located our Ford about twenty feet from where l parked 1t with it's back up against an other car. The second storm was even more severe and nearly said good bye to myself I surely thought that the house would cave in. First the roof blew off and then the rain poured through the ceilings. We piled our belongings in dry corners off the room. put all the cooking utensils to catch water. and l was busy emptying them. This kept up until noon As soon as the wind went down a little the more went out to see about food, and we waded up to our hips in the water.
 Wreekage Everywhere
 If is impossible to describe the dam age. The coping of our apartment was down and parts of wooden build ings floated in the streets. It was dan gerous te stay in the rooms for the ceiling was likely to come down at any moment. We of course had not com municatinn even with cur neigh bors until we reached the nearest store The mess was frightful. Au- tomobiles turned over in the streets In every direction. Houses with the sides fallen off. Buildings down altogether. The wind was down and the water low CT, but the rain came still down with such force that # seemed like hail. A few apartments in the neighborhood suffered less. and we secured sleeping there through the ef forts of the management of our house.
Putnam patriot., 1926-10-08

Our Ford was locked into another car. but l could not do anything about it until the next day. for it stormed more or less all Of Saturday Every body did their best Co help each other
 At last the rain stopped and Sun day was quiet. Everyone began to pick up their things and the water was only one foot deep. but the mess can not be described. News came in tell ing about the damages to other places. loss of life. etc.
 Slowly they began to organize and regulate. Grocery stores can not sell food without a ticket. and martial law was enforced first with deputy sheriifs. and now with marines and sailors. Am balances are running around collecting bodies and thousands Of injured. This Is still keeping up today. for there are lots of places that cannot be reached. l have been around little and 1t IS wonder that anybody came cut of it alive. Big boats are washed between the houses. They found bodies wash cd into trees. We are all trying to lo- cate our friends My friend Flags house lost its roof and il Is a pitiful sight Autos are hanging on the sides of the eauseway and several are in the bay. Big harges are standing in the streets and big five-master schooner is on the park near the waterfront.
 After the Storm
 Today everything looks brighter. They have begun to clear away the de- bris in the streets. l have been around again. but oh. what ruins! The we'll built houses suffered less, and the big hotels. being steel enforced, are in pretty good condition. The beach reaches way into the town. Trees and palms are piled up high, mixed with autos Rugs are all over the streets being dried. No drinking water ex- eept what comes in five gallon jugs. and We have 10 have tickets for it. The water in the faucets was shut of but today is running again. But what a mess we have to put np with
 No gasolene except on tickets. which one cannot get. Milk is now distributed by the Red Cross No cleo tricity. which means more than lights because all the cooking here is done with fl and we have been getting along on little alcohol heater that | hap pened to have and a pint of alcohol 4 little fire made outside on a dry spot did the first cooking Now the house has one oilstovo and We can heat things on it We can shift for cur selves. luckily. but lots of people in the apartment eat together in the hall.
 The sun is back on the job and ta- day l had a chance 10 ride to Miami. The city itself is not as badly damag ed as the suburbs and Miami Beach. Stories 20 around about the loss of life. and am only surprised that any thing k left. The Ford came out of the struggle very well and is running. Tomorrow expect Fasolene can be had l do not know what is coming out of it. hope they will materialize Low. There is. of course, plenty of work but is there money to pay for it? Everyone is glad to have come out of it with their lives.
 Emergency autos and deputy sher ifs are running around in cars and of course lot of people make good time out of that One sees a car at top speed going by, blowing the horn continuously. and a red cross painted on it, and occupied by a couple of boys. 1 But these things have to be expected. |
