day, the air was tempered by gentle summer zephyrs and the sun, shedding it's soft rays upon the landscape brought out ia all it's splendor the beautiful autumnal coloring of the forest and roadside foliage. This, coupled with the fact that the nut gathering season is at hand and that the new iron rail road bridge over the Housatonic was to be placed in position that day, it is said, reduced the regular church at- tendance quite perceptably. At any rate, large crowds of spectators were present at the bridge from early morn l ing till late afternoon and were inter ested witnesses of the work. The en- tire length of the new bridge when completed will be 255 feet and 4inches. Only one-half was placed in position Sunday, two sections, one 36 feet and the other 9ls feet in length being laid. The longest girders weighed over 45 tons each and were hoisted into position by means of double cilendar engine. Traffic was not interrupted, although trains are very cautious in passing over the bridge. Next Sunday, if pleasant, another large crowd will doubtless be present to help do the heavy standing around, discuss and criticise the work and offer suggestions and volunteer in-
 
 pres ents itself. It is not often that such privilege occurs in North Ca- naan and of course it should be i'm proved. Two of the workmen were slightly injured while at work last Sunday.
