Thanks to the progressiveness Of
the residents along Lincoln street
which leads up the Reservoir hill,
youngsters residing in that vicinity
are having the time Of their lives now
casting down the long stretch of
pavement recently laid, The street is
about five blocks long and the incline
is such that the wagon coasters buzz
over the hard surface with great
speed. A dozen or more vehicles Of
like nature were seen sailing down
the big hill last Sunday and the antics
Of the kids in their attempts to hold
fast to their wagons, afforded much
amusement for the many visitors who
witnessed the sport.

teeth were knocked out but this could
not be verified. No arrests were made.
