SKATING IS POPULAR
 SPORT THESE DAYS

Williams young people and some of them not so yOung-are getting a fine taste of the great winter sport, skating this week. The dams are full, the ice Is smooth as glass and at the pres ent writing the ice is sufficient Iy thick to make skating quite safe. The weather each night has been clear and spicy, but not bitterly cold. Altogether no finer opportunity for skating has been offered the young peo- pie of Williams.
 No finer outdoor sport than ice skating can be found. What joy there is in speeding over the glassy surface with but a frac- tion of the effort taken in walk ing. What a thrill it gives one to cut the night air with the speed and ease of a bird. Those who have never learned to skate have missed one of the greatest joys of youth.
 A perfect "mob" is reported at the Stanta Fe dam each nigh. The stores have such a run on skates as they have not known in years. Williams young peo- pie are certainly taking full ad- vantage of this unusually good opportunity for the greatest of winter sports.
