GEORGE A. PUTNAM
HAS ANNIVERSARY
1
COMPLETES 25 YEARS AS SUP-,
ERINTENDENT OF WOMEN'S'
..INSTITUTES.
George A. Putnam, superintendent
of institutes,"department of agrical-1
ture, completed his 25th year of ser-
vice in this capacity last week, Mr.
Putnam on this occasion referred l
proudly to the welfare work being
done by the Ontario Women's Inti -
tate, with which he works in an ad-
visory capacity. The institute, in its
beginnings, had been scornfully ,
spoken of, he said, as '`merely the
efforts of a few enthusiastic women,"
but it had now devctopecl into a I
world-wide organization of commun-
ity welfare.
The objects of the Women's Insti-
tute are better housing, better feed-
ing and better clothing, as described
by Mr. Putnam. They hall introduc- 1
cd the., idea in England during the
war, where it had been taken up and
adapted to the needs of the localities
concerned. Since then the move-
ment has 6711 0(1 to India, New Zea-
land, Aaetralia, and a letter had jilet
been received from South Africa
tellir:g of 171 .111:1tutes being or -
ganized there. Mr. Putnam added:
"We have 1120 Women's Institutes
in Ontario, with a membership of
40,000 and 50 instructors an the
road.”
LETTERS DELIVERED
AFTER TWO DECADES
RELICS REVEALED AS OLD
WICKET IS REMOVED AT THE
WALKERTON POST OFFICE.
Walkerton, Feb, 28—A number of
letters bearing a 1908 post mark
date were delivered here yesterday
after the old wicket of the Walker-
ton post office was removed. .A let-
ter addressed to John Bilger, Wal-
kerton, contained a check from a
local dairy firm for produce purchas-
ed by the latter 20 years ago. The
firm honored the check by ordering
payment of the draft and are hold-
ing it as a souvenir.
Long before the time of the pre-
sent postmaster or his predecessor
these letters dropped into the hack
of the tiers of boxes and remained
there undetected until they were re-
moved to make way for new wood-
work.
