The mercury touched zero one night

sort of a familiar sound. Thermom-
eters were overworked last winter and
il is hoped that they will not get so
gay this winter.
The first of the week brought sew

sleighs we're to be seen about town.
Let us hope that we will not have such
n tremendous fall of snow as last
winter that made sleighing almost i'm
possible at times.

Several of our enterprising resi-
dents are to be seen occasionally with
an axe over their shoulder hitting for
the tall timbers. How tall the tim
bcrs are that they fell is not known to
those who do not get into the woods.
II is a good plan to get as much as
YOU can for there will be need OF all
that can be cut to help out the short
age Of coal.
