At the time of his death the directors of the Childrens FreshAir Society held a special meeting and adopted resolutions of respect tothe memory of Mr. Putts, who had served for many years as vice-presidentof the society. His life is an inspiration to the young men of to-day.

The death of Mr. Putts was mourned as sincerelyby high and humble as ever falls to the lot of any man. Not only hisworks will perpetuate his name, but the far sweeter monument of gratefulmemory of those who knew him. His story is that of God-given abilitydirected
