CITY TO RUN AN ICE RINK.
Dubuque, la, 70 Utilize Harbor and
Furnish Chaperons.


Though Dubuque. Ia, IS on the Mis-
sissippi river and has one of the finest
har5ors between New Orleans and St.
Paul. there has been little or no ice
skating in recent years. Several times
attempts TO conduct private rink
have failed. principally owing to high
prices of admission.
Alderman John O'Rourke plans to
utilize the whole OF the harbOr which
is 1,4OO feet long and 500 feet wide.
AS soon as it Is deemed advisable this
surface will he flooded from the city's
water system. thus giving it a surface
as smooth as glass.
Along the shores il is proposed to
build shelters where skates may be
adjusted, where skaters may rest and
get warm and where they may have
their wraps checked. Policemen will
be present at all times. and represent
atives Of the woman's clubs Of the
city will be assigned to regular duty
as chaperons.

American Golf.

Certainly you are in good luck as q
golfer II you go to America at all, for
they are gloriously hospitable In that
land, and. so far as ] could see, the
idea that some have here-that the
Americans notion OF the object of
playing a game is purely to win 1t,
not to enjoy the playing-is perfectly
mistaken. I never had the impression
more strongly anywhere OF being in
the company OF men who were play
ing the game for pleasure. not for the
mere sake Of winning the match. But
then II is certainly true, as I heard one

Personally, Mr. Williams
thinks the best solution of the

to put Smyth county into the
