Thers was a big attendance from Danielson and the surrounding vil- lages at Wildwook park Memorial day when the popular pleasure resort open- ed for the first time this season. A half-hourly double-header service was none too frequent to accommodate all the persons who were desirous to g0 up to the lake and during the rush hour of the,afternoon and early eve- ning crowded cars were the rule.

How It Was Observed in Danielson on Monday. Bright sunshine and the bracing at- mosphere of a perfect spring day were iven to the veterans and the throngs that joined them in their annual Me- morlal day services, The tle-tried ‘members of Mc- Gregor post formed the procession as usual oppogite their hall in the Ke: stone bullding and at two o’clock es- corted by the Thirteenth company of coast artillery and St. James' band marched to the town hall where Col. D. R. Ballou dellvered the address, The service was attended by a capac- ity adulence. The remainder of the exercises of the day were carried out as arranged, the graves of soldiers burfed in Westfield and St. James’ cemeteries being visited and decorated with flowers. ALL-NIGHT LIGHTING Admittedly a Good Move, but Will Cost Money. A division of opinion has developed among the citizens of Danielson over the proposition of giving the borough an all-night street light service, The matter will be given careful considera- tion at the adjourned special borough meeting to be held Friday evening. Everyone is willing to acknowledge that an all-night service would be a good thing, but it is going to cost mon- ey—perhaps one-third more than the present total street lights cost—and the question arises as to whether or not the taxpayers or at least the vot- ers, are willing to assume the extra expense.
