SKATING Kinks HANDY
EAST MINNEAPOLIS HAS FINE
NATURAL SKATING Kinks
THOUSANDS TAKE ADVANTAGE.

East Minneapolis during the winter
season furnishes an over-abundance Of
sport for the younger people, and its
broad and fine avenue and sloping hill
sides make delightful place for the
tcoasting parties who enjoy the fine win
ter weather afternoons and evenings.
Since the hard frosts have set in the
small lakes and ponds around the public
gardens have been in shape for skating,
and it is there that the youths of the
East Side make merry all afternoon
and evening. The park board keeps up
the skating grounds in Van Cleve park
on Como avenue and Fifteenth avenue,
while the pond is not very large, it is
the stellar attraction for hundreds of
the young people who flock there from
the Como and University, Fourteenth
avenue Sc and other districts. They
report a fine condition of the ice, and
the comforts to be furnished thru the
warming houses will be an inducement
stay late.
Sandy lake on the outskirts of the
city on Central avenue is also used to
great extent by the skaters, and while
there is no park board to take care of
the Ice and provide warming station
the patrons Of the lake live in close.
enough vicinity to manage without it
and yet take in all the fun. While the
shore of the lake is frozen rough and
uneven the ice in the center is in splen-
did form, smooth as glass and as such
meets with the approval of the fastidi-
GUS skaters. Sandy Lake has fine sur
face, and is located near the very thick
+ ly populated district of Northeast Min
neapolis. It is on the Eighth and
Contra! avenue street car line, and if it
could be properly kept up and looked
after, wouldtprov meeting place for
thousands Of skaters every winter.
Long John pond comes. also in for a
s share of patronage from the residents
who live near it, While the skatine
rink is an artificial one, or at least to 2
great degree, it is really made fit for use
with the kind assistance of the gar.
den hose and liberal supply Of water
from the hydrant, it isl none the less &C.
ceptable for the skaters, and when the
winter season is at its height the boys
and girls make merry on the smooth ice
to their, hearts content.
!. Lake Como is SO close to Southeast
Minneapolis that it has become a favor
tie skating resort for the lovers of The
exhllaratlng sport. The cars make the
trip to Como park in very short time
and for the. residents of East Mime
apolis the trip is fully as short as itha1
one across the river, if not .perhaps
somewhat shorter.
