ORNAMENTAL IRONWORK NEEDS
PROTECTION
BY Marie Hulser

The ornamental ironwork in and
about your house will not fulfill its
purpose of decoration if it is col
lecting. a coat of rust. On the con-
trary, it will tend to make the entire
dwelling seem shabby, and what is
worse will eventually become hope
less of improvement. Like almost
everything else, iron has parasite.
When left exposed to moisture it
rusts just as damp exposed wood in
vites fungous growth. And the
first sign of rust is warning
against a chemical action which
gradually turns the metal to dust.
Many people think rust is becom-
ing to exterior ironwork. In its early
stages this may be true, but within
an amazingly short time rusting pro-
crosses to the point of being not
only unsightly but iGcurable, and, in
addition ruinous to clothing that
comes in contact with it. 1t is much
wiser to simulate an antique, rusted
finish with paint; such finish, when
properly given, defies detention ex-

Resinous substances such as sticky
fiy paper are often hard to remove
from clothing. Try turpentine, ben
zol, carbon tetrachloride, chloro-
form, wood or denatured alconol'
ether, kerosene or gasoline.
A wire basket is a good accessory
to have in canning tomatoes or
peaches. AS these fruits must pc
scalded to get the skins OFF, use tne
wire basket to lower the material
quickly into boiling water and out
again.
Sun baths should be given to all

The timeworn theory that sheep
having a covering of wool over their
faces are the BEST" is now being ex-
ploded. Studies made by the U. ).
Department of Agriculture show
that ewes of the Rambouillet breed
that are free from heavy face cover
ing yield the heaviest fieeces, both
secured and unsecured.
MANY vegetable combinations are
good when you do not have enough
of any one vegetable to go around
Carrots and peas in equal quantl-

and okra; corn, string beans, on

The only redeeming trait that
cockroaches have, according 10
entomologists of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, is that they
sometimes eat bedbugs, but most
people don't want to keep roaches
around for this purpose. Forum
ately it is easy to kill them, by
sprinkling powdered sodium fiuorlde
or sodium fuosilicate wherever
they appear.
New Zealand spinach stands the
heat better than ordinary spinach
and so is obtainable during the hot
test months. Strip the leaves from

GENTLY, chop and mix with butter
before serving. Serve vinegar or
sliced lemon with spinach.

Morse, veteran actor, here Tuesday on a visit Co Put nam and to the cemetery on Woodstock Hill where his wife lies buried.
 Mir. Morse, since his retirement from vaudeville. has conducted a thir- ty-room hotel in Lowell, patronlzed to a great extent by members of the profession. One day last April he stepped out to mail letteF. As he was crossing the street he was hit by an automobile, Injured, and was unconscious for two hours. lt was at first thought that his skull was frac- tured by the fall. 1t was not but the concussion left him partially deaf. Within the week he has made a settle ment of his lawsuit out of court and appeared we'll satisfied with the result.
 Feels the Urge
 Mir. Morse said that he had not been outside of Lowell for over year. He felt the urge ito get away" and came to Putnam.

 westward urge, resigne .n 1865, to take up missionary work in Michl- gan. Two facts stand out a, this time, which bridged the t.ylng pericd, viz.. .he generosity Of the Vintons and the fact that Mir. ui.hat, par ishioner, was advanced 70 the diaeon- ate, who aupp.ied the parish with ser vices, except when those or priest were required. The Rev Mir Geer, of Norwich, supplied those needs.
 Again Normal
 In 1867 the Rev. Mir. Gilliat was crdnined priest, and the parish once again settled down to normal life. Mir Gilliat died in 1873 and the Rev. H. c. Randall was recalled to serve as rector. In 1880 the Rev. Freder- ick Burgess. afterwards Bishop of Long Island, became rector and after his reetOrship the present beautiful church and rectory were built. In 1882 the old church was moved to Abingdon and services were held in that place. the church being rededi- cated as the Church of the Messiah.
 Upon Dr. Burgess election to the Episcopate the Rev. Mir Gardner was called to the D arish. and after a fruitful ministry was followed by the Rev. Mr. Hardy. during whose time the seventy-ffth anniversary was duly observed. Upon the death of Mir Hardy, the Rev. F. s. Irwin be- came rector and labored with great zeal until he resigned in 1916.
 The Rev. F. H. Bigelow then be- came rector and. during his rector ship. succeeded in raising the splen- did endowment fund the parish now enjoys. thus placing the parish be- yond the risks of it's earlier history. Mir. Bigelow resigned in 1927 to de- vote his entire efforts to the Rectory School.
 In March. 1928. the present rec tor, Rev. l.. R. Richards, assumed charge and witnessed the one hun dredth year of the parish's life. The century mark was observed last Sun day.
 Anniversary Observance
 The anniversary preacher was the htNs NH NtsttNHs %Fffb uttthhEfW a very thoughtful sermon. The preach or said that the history of the parish is the history of men and women faithfully performing ''the trivial round and common task" of the church life. True devotion and splen- did courage could only account for the church existence in a soil unfriend- ly to the Episcopal church as east of the Connecticut river has proven to be in the Episcopal church expansion. Well may Saints cn earth in concert sing" for the sacrifices made and the spirit of undauntedness which have manifested themselves in the history of the parish of Christ Church.
 The music at the service was ex- cellent and is evidence. not only of Miss Ash's musical ability but her un- tiring the devotion to her church.
