SATURDAY AT TWIN LAKES

A great deal of favorable comment was heard about the regatta aud illumi- mated boat parade held at Twin Lakes Saturday, following the annual meeting of the Twin Lakes Association. It was a banner day for the people at the lakes, and they were all on hand to enjoy it, many of them bringing their friends. Not only was the day an ideal one from the weather standpoint, but the several events were all brought off in very sat isfactory manner.
 The regatta in the afternoon brought together large number of happy camp CTS, and the several events furnished plenty of entertainment and amusement.
 The event of the day was the illumi- mated boat parade in the evening, and it was then that the lake was seen at it's best It is naturally adapted for illumi- nations of this sort, and with the line of decorated and beautifully lighted boats circling about the lake, and the shores xirt about by camps brilliantly ilumi- hated with Japahese lanterns and col ored lights, with occasional bursts of fireworks as the line of boats passed by, national airs played by bugler on shore, and the echoes of college songs floating on the air from canoeists and launch parties on the lake, all combined to make the evening a remarkable and delightful one. There was hearty cooperation of all in making the day successful, and . mutual participation in it's pleasures, which made the camp life at the lakes appear at it's best. sr

NEEDLESS WEAR OF ROADS

Attention has been called recently to the fact that automobilists are causing a needless wear of roads. This they do by always driving on the crown or cen ter of the road. This method of driving means that one portion of the road takes all the wear, and naturally of course gets worn into ruts and ridges.
 If the traffic would spread itself and make all that portion of the road from gutter to the top of the crown take a share of the wear, road surfaces woald last much longer and would require less frequent repair. In these days when roads are made almost flat there is no excuse for this habit of cl.nRing to the crown, but where roads ars made with a great deal of cambcr it is perhaps excusable. as driving ou a continuous slope is the reverse of pleasant.

complete exercise, but it is so nearly so that the habitual walker can keep him. self in good condition without anything else. To be able to strike out easily and naturally with steady and swinging stride, to reel off miles without fatigue is for man or woman an accomplishment to be envied. There is real pleasure in it when one learns. There is profit in it that is more than money. It is time we Americans returned to the good old habit of walking, and to the reliable and inexpensive "shank's mare" as a means of locomotion.

COMMENT ON THE TARIFF

There was some interesting comment on the tariff bill immediately after it's passage last week. Naturally 6 decidedly different tune came from rival interests and parties. President Taft frankly ad- mittsd that it is not perfect tariff bill or complete compliance with the prom ises made, but declared his belief that fulfillment free from criticism in respect to 8 subject matter involving many schedules and thousands of articles could not be expected. /He believes that the great number of real decreases in rates constitute sufficient amount to justify the statement that this bill IS a genuine revision and substantial reduction of excessive rates. Senator Aldrich blows . big note and calls the bill "the most important and comprehensive act ever adopted by the American Congress, and challenges any Senator to point out a single monopoly which is protected. Ex-Juags A. B. Parker, on the contrary, makes slap at the bill, as he naturally would by declaring that "the belief that the Republican platforms promise of revision of the tariff was intended to de- csive the people is now fully justified. And yet, despite all comment. the Amer joan people are already settling down to adapt themselves to the new business conditions. Better times have been anx- iously waiting just around the corner this long time, listening for the signal that the bill had been passed. The sus- pense is ended and the long discussed bill has become 8 law. There is no doubt that it is step, even if not stride, toward ultimate and more sweep ing reduction of the tariff.

DRAaS RESCUER DOWN
Great Burlington Postal Clerk Drowns
 in 25 Feet of Water.

Great Burlington Postal Clerk Drowns
 in 25 Feet of Water.
 David Faye Whitcomb, @ post-office clerk in Great Harrington, was drowned Sunday afternoon while trying to swim across a lake on the summer estate of William Hall Walker of New York. The grounds are called Brookside Park, and although they arc private, some of the boys in the neighborhood are allowed to go in swimming there.
 About 5 o'clock in the afternoon MT. Whitcomb, with Harry Burghardt, a letter carrier and close personal friend, went to Brookside Lake, where they joined four boys in an attempt to swim across the lake. The distance is about 300 yards. The boys were Eric Dumb bell, 12 years old; George Dumbbell, l5; Lewis Tanner, IT, and Ives Wheeler, IS.
 Whltcomb, and the Wheeler and Tan ner boys had never swum across the lake, but the others had. The two men and four boys started out in fine shape and all seemed to be equal to the swim. When they got within about 75 yards of the further shore, however, Whitcomb became exhausted. Help meW he called to Burghardt. Both Burghardt and George DumbbeIl went to his aid. One took hold one side and one the other. They had not gone far when Whitcomb uttered a cry and grabbed hold of Burghardt. Both sank in 25 it. of water.
 Burghardt went down three times with Whitcomb before he could break the latter hold on him. George Dumb bell went down once. Whitcomb did not rise to the surface again. By this time Burghardt's strength had nearly gone, and it was all he and George Dumbbell could do to save themselves.
 Young Tanner and Wheeler were also nearly exhausted and had to be assisted to reach the shore. When the two Dumbbell boys, Tanner and Wheeler finally arrived at the shore they became temporarily deranged as result of the drowning of Whitcomb. and wanted to jnmp in and try and swim back to where he had sunk. Burghardt restrained them with much difficulty.
 As soon as possible. Burghardt and the others hastened back to town and noti- fled the authorities of the drowning. All the rest of the afternoon and sven- ing the lake was dragged to recover tha body, but without success.
 MT. Whitcomb was 32 years old and very well known ill Great Burlington. He had been 8 postoffice clerk eight years. He was married and his wife and two children are spending the sum mer ill Antrim. N. Y. His father and mother, MT. and Mrs. Frank D. Whit comb, are old residents of Great Bar rington. He also has two brothers and a sister.
 The Dumbbell boys are the sons of the Rev. Howard l.. Dumbbell, rector of the St. James Episcopal Church, one of the most fashionable parishes in Great Burlington.

TENNYsoN's CENTENNIAL

One hundred years ago last Saturday was born Alfred Teanyson, one of Eng lands greatest poets, and the centennial of his birth was generally commented upon and in many places celebrated last week. The reason for this was that Tennyson has insured himself perma- nent niche in the Hall of Fame as hav- ing been one of those poets of the nine teenth century who can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
 Tsnnyson' s first great poem, code on the Death of the Duke of Wellington, " was written in 1852, and from that time until his death, twenty-five years ago, hardly year passed without his adding a gem to the English language. Unlike many poets whose title to fame rests on one or two immortal productions, Ten ny son achieved success in varied styles of poetic composition. Although he had no great message for the world, he did possess in high degree the faculty of creating poetry with qualities of both meter and meaning that have appealed to all lovers of poetry. He was philos- opher as we'll as 8 poet, and dealt in themes which have vital significance for mankind. For the treasures in poetry which he has left to us his name is hon. ored and rsvered hundred years after his birth, and his creations will certainly remain as delight to many generations yet unborn.
