TWIN LAKES DAY A
 NOTABLE SUCCESS
Upwards of Four Hundred Witness Sports at
 ,. Pechin's


 Beach, last. Saturday attracted crowd of upwards of four hundred people. The events consisted of various water sports for the young CT people and proved both interest ing and amusing. The beach in front of the Pechin summer home is the finest on the lake and afforded "a rare opportunity to display ones skill in the water.
 The events were open to all young people, which included number of summer residents who have a ,repu- tation in colleges for swimming, div ing, etc. While the entire program proved interesting and held the at tention of the crowd, the most anus ing and exciting was the tilting match between the young ladies. Four canoes padded by young men, with four young ladies armed with long poles entered this event. The game was to knock your opponent into the water, which looks simple but isn't.
 Soda and ice cream were served at cost on the grounds to the per spring audience with such good re- suits that the entire supply was sold. ..>s-
 The observance of Twin Lakes Day was established many years ago and was abandoned during the war. So successfully was the program carried out last Saturday that it is hoped the people of the summer colony and this vicinity may look forward to others equally enjoyable.
