the small boy, as the Coasting was ex-
cellent. One day crowd of the afore-
said boys was seen coasting down the
foot path of schoolhouse hill, using the
lids of their dinner buckets in the ab-
sence of sleds. 1t was really amusing
to watch them coast few feet on the
bucket lid, then finish up with slide
of few feet off the lid. Trust the
small boy for fun-and the big ones, too,
for that matter, as one day recently our
worthy marshal ordered all coasting in
the city stopped, and started the small
boys home with their sleds. Along
came crowd of the big boys(Y and
took the sleds, and coasted down the
street with great hurrahs, continuing
their sport in defiance OF the law. We
wonder # this was good example for
the younger boys.

town from six to ten days to assist the
lodge in getting new members. No

A young bachelor of Hood River found
a lady's tortoise-shell back comb on one
of the city streets Saturday, leaving it
at the Glacier Office for Identification
and delivery. This handsome young
man is looking for wife, and no doubt
if the owner of this necessary adjunct to
the ladies' back hair will call for the
article and leave her name and address,
she may not only secure the privilege
of sewing on buttons for this bachelor,
but causing loving heart to beat in
unison with her own. To this end, the
Glacier man will ever pray.
