One of Winslow's oldest residents
advised the Winslow correspondent
that in many years time. he had new
er seen a more perfect winter thar
Maine is experiencing in 1926. Janu-
airy is rapidly fading into ultimo, and
February, with it's four weeks will
soon enter upon us, and SO far nc
storms have come that have in any
way hindered traffic. One of the en-
ployees of the A. & X. railroad re-
marked that it is the first winter fol-
six years that the cars running from
Lewiston to Waterville have not beer
held up for hours and sometimes days
before or during this month. Each
! mild day that goes by brings us one
day nearer to Spring. which time is
said to be the best Of all seasons
for poets write it, praise it. and a,
that time everything springs into be.
ing. To some the autumn Is fa1
preferable to Spring because of the
wet travelling of the latter season
but Spring bring the thought Of re-
birth. while Fall conveys the feal
that everything beautiful is passing
Withal, we have had a most beauti-
full winter in NVinslow. and according
to many reports, in all Maine.
