slippery, and will doubtless stay 80 for
some time to come. in spots at any
rate. Pedestrians don't have to be
cautioned. but a little reminiscencinS
will recall to most of us, one or more
wild jumps in the air, followed by an
awful drop. which makes us go bit
more carefully. There are just two OF
these spots that man and dogs alike
fight shy of. One is Rines hill, on
night when a falling rain has turned
