Eight of Kennewick's young people
went to Hover last Friday evening to
attend dance. The trip was made in
a sleigh and a jolly good time was re-
norted by all, both on the road and at
the dance in spite of the falling snow.
The dance was regular old fashioned
country dance and the Hover people
lost no time in making the acquaint-
ance of our young people and giving
them the best time ever.
Since this snow there have been all
kinds of sleds and sleighs made to take
advantage of the unprecedented winter
short. Even the delivery wagons have
nut runners on. But the funniest of
the contraptions that have yet been de-
yised. was the one that the Holmes
store brought out after the drizzle Mon
day night. The front axle had wheels
and the rear had runners. The thing
looked like a giraffe with the spring
halts.
