SKATING CNRNIIINl ASPECT
Skating devotees were praying or
wishing hard this morning that the
wind would shift to the 'nortlrwest.
This would mean an. atmoaphere chil-
ly enough to freeze the slight depth
of water that coats the mill pond, off
Seaview avenue.
Norwalk is not backward in the l‘t‘~
vival of interest in skating that has
lately visited New York city. Sunday
it was estimated that throughout the
day from 600 to 800 persons skated
on the Mill Pond.
The sport is highly increased by
strings of electric lights that have
been put up by the third district com-
missioners along the pond. Just as
soon as the pond freezes over to make
'skatlng again a possibility, the cout-
missioners will put up more strings of
lights. The. pond takes on a decided
carnivablike aspect. with the malty
brilliant lights.

proposed were about five per cent.
The Commission ordered the can-

In the present case, it was contends
