The matter of celebrating the event newt summer has been discussed about town for some time and it is thought that the majority of business men in town are strongly in favor of making the anniversary an occasion not soon to be forgotten by those who are in town when the celebration takes place.
 DARING RESCUE.
 There was a story in circulation about the Center last evening to the effect that Fred Aufford and Webster Conine, two of the towns athletic young men; made a daring rescue of two companions, Harold O1mstead and Ray Edwards, in a canoe collision near the mouth of the Housatonic river Sunday It was stated that the young men were out conoeing. Conine and Olnstead in one canoe and Aunord and Edwards in the other. The two canoes bumped into each other and when they upset in IA inches of water Conine bravely grabbed O1mstead and waded into shore with him while Auf- ford picked up Edwards out of the briny and likewise deposited him on terra frma. Both Conine and Aufford nonchalently remarked after the dar- ing rescue that they almost wished the water at the point the canoes collided was IA feet instead of IA inches deep, just to lend a spice of danger to the rescue
