WINTER SPORTS OF COLLEGE GIRLS.
skeeing and COasting on Dustpans Break
Monotony of Studies.

skeeing IS the favorite form of enjoyment for the
Mount Holyoke girl Just now. This sport. which
introduced from Norway. consists in getting
over the ground with a skee-a board about four
inches wide and seven feet long and curved up at
one end-fastened to each foot The best part of
the skeeng is the dash down steep hill. Needless
to say. it is matter of great difficulty TO keep
ones balance in this standing position when skim
ming the ground, and tumbles of frequent
occurrence. The beginner is ridculously awkward
with the u1wieldy skees. but the trick is soon
tered, and after a light snowstorm. or when the
crust is hard, graceful figures in red sweaters and
jaunty toboggan caps may be about the
campus. guiding themselves with long sticks as
they glide easily the ground. leaving narrow
tracks behind them.
Skating, also. holds firm place in the heart OF
the Mount Holyoke girl. and the ice carnvals that
take place in the evenings furnish the best sort OF
fun. Skates click on the smooth Ice in time to the
music of orchestra, torches and red fire light
the scene of lnerriment, and bonfres CLEAN across
the pond ready to warm the chilled skaters. For
these carnivals men come to South Hadley from
Amherst and neighborng towns.
BobS are in great demand for coasting during the
winter season at Mount Holyoke, but the fact that
