Last Christmas. the ground was
covered with ice All keokuk is
hoping this season for white Christ
mas. White Christmases during the
past several years have been few and
far between occasions so that snow on
the ground would be greatly relished

more realistic The mercury still
continues to hover in refrigerated
spots so that a good snow soon
would not be surprising. The first
! furry of the present cold season is
still awaited.
