America and others from the big
cities of Europe, I had been at
Khartoum for ten days awaiting
the approach Of the mighty hun
ter. Finally, last Tuesday, four
of us chartered little river

up the Nile. 1t was early this
morning when we were tumbled
out of our berths by the captain
of our dingy craft. We rushed on
deck and looking up through the

hearty:

''Say, but it's bully of You boys
to come away up here. What's
the news, etc."
The "Cal' above saluted was
lmy comrade, John Callan
lO'Laughlin, and we used to be N
the squad of newspaper boys at
the White House. And so we
scrambled aboard the big Egyp-
tian government boat and were
presented with scant formality but
much cordiality to the officers
and officials, all of whom had
been routed out by the internal
rumpus our whistle had kicked
up.

travel on snowshoes. The little boy In
the picture certainly looks as if his IA
ther had taught him how, for he doesn't
appear to be the least bit afraid. His
smile shows that he is enjoying the
sport.
Snowshoes are not real shoes, of
course. You must wear your real
shoes and stockings to keep your feet
warm, then fasten the snowshoes to
your soles. They are really very
much like little sleds, only-that you
have a sled on each foot instead Of the
belly buster that you use in coasting
downhill. You can climb hills on
snowshoes, and you can't do that on a
sled, as you know. That's where lots
Of the fun comes In.
In northern Michigan and some
other parts of the north the little boys
and girls sometimes get a pair of
snowshoes from Santa Claus, and they
prove to be very enjoyable Christ
mas present.
''Skates will do for me-" says SUSIE
Oh, very we'll. Then We'll have Santa
Claus leave pair of skates for you
beneath the mantel. They're too big
and awkward to put into your stock
ings, and you want all the room there
is in your stockings for candy and
other smaller gifts, anyhow.
Every boy and girl who loves the
outdoors-and what child doesn't?-
wants to go skating. You'll agree to
that, won't you? OF course. If you
live far south, where the creeks and
ponds don't freeze over, you can't ex-
pect ice skating, but then there are
The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-12-15

collier skates. Still. roller skates don't
really suggest Christmas. A pair of
them is a welcome gift from Santa
Claus to boy or girl, but it is the
Ice skates that make us think of
Christmas time.
Nowadays skates are nicer and cheap
er than those we used to have, say,
thirty years ago. Did any Of you boys
and girls ever see a pair of the clumsy
looking wooden skates with steel run
ners which your fathers used to wear
before the all metal skates came into
fashion? Those wooden skates were
strapped to heel and toe-no heel plates
or toe clamps in those days. But
they were mighty good skates all the
same, and your father enjoyed them
just as much as you'll enjoy the high
~ polished nickeled beauties which
Santa Claus may leave for you this
Christmas.
Here's a picture of the Christmas
queen, the queen Of outdoor sports In
winter time. You will see that she is
dressed very warmly, which is as she
should be, for she is standing In tree
top-her throne, you know-and it must
be pretty chilly up there when the wind
blows. But you will notice also that
the Christmas queen has wings, so she
can fly down and join her subjects,
the other boys and girls, In skating
snowshoeing or coasting downhill. The
queen In this case Is not a fairy.

ing to read about them and know some
thing about them anyhow. There are
states in this big country where snow
shoeing is popular-away up in Michi-
gan and Wisconsin, for instance, where
the snow lies deep on the ground for
months at time. Over in Norway,
far across the Atlantic ocean, is the
place where snowshoes come in the
most handy, for that is land Of deep
SHOWS and long winters.
The idea of the snowshoe is to keep
you from breaking through the top
crust Of the deep snow and let you
skim gracefully over the white surface
Snowshoes are much used in the big
forests, where the snow falls several
feet deep and then gets frozen crust
