Awful Slide for Sammy

Little Sammy Tucker, 1o-year-old son
of Joshua Tucker, had an awful slide
on Thursday last about noon. There
was a thick crust on the snow and it
was as smooth as glass. Well, after
Sammy had ct his dinner he took a
roundabout way up on top of the hill
behind the schoolhouse, and setting
down on the crust with nothing under
him started to slide down the hill on
the crust.
The hill is awful steep, and Sammy
gathered lot of momentum every sec
ond.
Jet Peters, the school teacher, seen
Sammy coming, but was powerless to
do anythink So was Sammy. He was
going so fast he couldn't stop to save
his neck. Well, about half way down
the hill is big jounce over ledge.
When Sammy struck this he went into
the air and when he lit the crust broke
and he stopped, but he had his face
scrached up a good cal, but no bones
was broke, although his pants will have
to be patched. This ought to be les
son to Sammy.
