NOVELTY IN CITY STREETS
Employment OF Skis as Method Of

New Workers.


People in Audubon avenue, in the
upper section Of the metropolis, we're
treated to q spectacle on winter af-
ternoon that New Workers do not have
the opportunity OF beholding every
day.
Because of the snow vehicular traf-
fic had been largely suspended and the
trolley cars were not running. Two
modes Of travel were available to those
who did not care to walk--automobiles
and sleighs. These conveyances be-
came so numerous that they soon
ceased to attract much attention, but
now and then some persons remarked.
That's the only way you can get over
the snow today unless you foot it,"
These positive persons were soon
appraised Of the fact there was still an
other means Of travel over the snow.
Their attention was attracted by a
man going north on Audubon avenue.
Even at distance it was apparent
that he was not walking.
When he drew near 1t was seen that
he was on skis and he was expert
encing difficulty in making headway.
1t was hard walking In the skis, and
even the grips which he carried in his
hands were not assisting him to any
extent.
Pedestrians turned around and
stared at the sight. II they had been
in Norway they would not have paid
attention to the man. but in. New
York man on skis is novelty. As
one pedestrian calculated as he gaped
at the man, Say. he must be on his
way to the north pole"
