 Deer mountain looked like steam ing volcano toady. The wind hl ushed it's fur the wrong way and it got steaming hot. Half of us in town did not notice the fine sight. If we only liv- ed a hundred miles. away from sight like this we would think it the event of our lives when we came to see it. The mountain here in our back yard with it's comb ot snow, ever and anon dropping down it's side young snow slide and every once in so often en- veloped at the peak in fine snow fur ries is not bad sight at all It breaks the monotony to notice such things when fellow can. We have Il mighty fine back yard if we only knew II.
