Once Popular; Now Deserted.
High street from Third or Seventh

place for coasting, but, that place is
deserted this winter, for which the

full, for the sleds shot across the
track there, too. and somebody was
hurt every once in while One or
two were injured on that hill in the
past, by colliding with another sled
or a tree.
Coasting lacks lot of being lost
art in Keokuk, but it has declined
sixty percent or more this winter
over what it was in Importance hve
years ago.
They say the sleds Of today are
easier to handle than the older ones
but this does not seem to increase
the sport. Probably. the reason for
the decline of coasting is the great
change made fundamentally In people
