many are rubbing the hind foot of

registry was % degrees above, and
yesterday went it so much better
that it really thawed on the side
walks and from roofs of buildings.
Sunday proved to be sunshiney,
warm day and most Of the outdoor
folks spent the day skiing or to-
bogganing on the hills near the
village. Very little snow has fallen
and there is about foot of the
white covering in this section.
High winds are blocking the roads
i'm some places and it is reported
that the highway to Rhinelander,
that part in Villas county, is now
blocked because of bad drifts since
Monday. Otherwise the Nor t h
Woods is setting pretty for short
winter and not much discomfort
added at that.
