FATHER ROUTHIER
 BID FOND FAREWELL
Over 500 Parishioners Gather In St. Mary's Hall Friday
 Night
Departing Pastor Receives Substan-
 tial Purse of Money

 i Over five hundred members of St. Mary's parish gathered in Sf. Mary's hall. Thursday evening, to bid fond farewell to the retiring assistant pas tor. Rev. A. W. Routhier. There were many tear-dimmed eyes in the large audience denoting that Father Routh- fer, during his ten years of labor in this city, had endeared himself 10 those to whom he ministered.
 There was music by an orchestra and during the evening Father Rou- thier was presented purse of I,400. This was the gift of individual mem bers of the parish and parish societies. Other private gifts materially increas- ed the amount.
 Devoted to School
 The presentation was made on be- half of the people by Rev. U. O. Belle rose. Father Bellerose spoke in high ly eommendatory terms of his assist ant pastor, his earnest and untiring work in the parish, his devotion to St. Mary's school and the school children, and his devout christian character. He expressed his own regret at the trans fer of Father Routhier to a more responsible assignment as head of a parish and alluded to the loss that the parish will sustain by the change. However. although the individual and the parish suffers a personal loss the call to a broader field and to a more important task is recognition of faithful service.
 Was Overeome
 Father Routhier was plainly over come with emotion as he tried to ex- press his feelings He said that he realized he had many friends in the parish but did not realize how deeply the association of the past ten years had become rooted. Words, he said, were inadequate to express his feel ings. The money which had been presented to him was gratifying. not for it's intrinsic value, but as evidence of that greater friendship which he had hardly realized existed. Father Routhier told those gathering to wish him geod bye and good tuck that he would never forget them: that he would always remember them in his prayers; that his stay in Putnam had been gratifying for its accomplish ments and the pleasant association with the clergy and the lay members of the parish.

Car Upside Down But
 Driver Not Injured

An automobile skidded and landed in an upside down position on Pomfret Hill, last Thursday afternoon. Pass ing motorists viewed the sight in as tonishment and concluded that who ever occupied the car when 1t turned turtle must have been killed or seri- ously injured.
 The automobile was driven by Mrs. Cora Visel of Hartford, who was thrown from the car as if somersault- ed on the slippery highway. She ap- peared to be seriously injured and was rushed to the Day Kimball Hospital An X-ray photograph disclosed no fractured bones. Following treatment for a few minor bruises about the face and hands, she was discharged. Gar age mechanics. with the assistance of derrick, righted the car.
 It is thought that the woman driver became alarmed upon seeing the steep incline of the hill confronting her and lost control of the car.

FINDS PATRIOT ADS
 BRING GOOD RESULTS
Frigidaire Corporation Com mends Columns of This
 Paper For Publicity.
Large Concern Alive to Benefits or
 Printers Ink

Every newspaper has confidence that malicious use of it's columns for ad- vertising brings results 10 the adver- tiser. The larger the business enter prise the greater the amount of space used is conclusive evidence of this fact. It is seldom. however, that the adver- tiser will take the trouble to commend the newspaper for the service 1t ren- ders.
 A personal letter from the adver- tising manager of the Frigidaire Cor poration expressing satisfaction at the results obtained from the use of the columns of The Patriot is so unusual that we feel at liberty to reproduce it in all modesty to our readers. The letter, which came to hand on Monday, is as follows:
 The Editor, Patriot,
 Putnam, Conn.
 Dear Sir:
 On Thursday, August g. we announced q new line of Frigid- aire electric refrigerators.
 We want you to know that the advertising in your newspaper announcing the new line has pro duced exceedingly satisfactory results.
 It has been the policy of Frig- idaire Corporation to use newspa- per advertising as the backbone of it's publicity campaign, and the rapid strides from year to year in volume of business, the general public acceptance of electric re frigeration. and the outstanding leadership of Frigidaire in this field can be credited in no small measure to the use of adequate newspaper advertising space.
 Frigidaire is a quality product and the splendid results we have received from the announcement of our new line are testimonial to the quality of the circulation of your paper.
 Yours very truly.
 Frigidaire Corporation,
 E. D. DOTY,
 Advertising Manager.
