LAKEWOOD, N. j., Dec. 1O.-Interest
in the events Of indoors was Gre
ated here this week among the Lake
wood sojourncrs by the severe stormy
weather which prevailed early in the
week and which brought heavy fall
T of snow. The card tables and dance
floors were at once popularized and in
formal affairs were held at the hotels,
clubs and private homes.
The cold snap did not interfere with
all outdoor sports, however, for the
snow made possible several days of
wonderful shedding on the many fine
hills where tobogganing is possible
hereabouts. Scores of visitors were
out for the sport and there was general
regret when the warmer weather Of
the midweek melted the snow away.
Hikers made the most of the cold, crisp
air also and followed the winding
footpaths that skirt the lake shores.
The clearing away of the snow gave
golfers chance to get back into play
! late in the week and their activities
closed to-day with the weekend handi-
cap event in which a score or more
participated.
Trapshooters, following the closing
Of the rabbit, quail and partridge sea-
! son in this territory on December 10,
will inaugurate the winter series of
weekly events on the traps of the
Laurel House Gun Club. Handicap and
high gun trophies are to be awarded
the winners every Saturday.
