have snow for several days ana

Then as the snow ceased to tali

move gradually, roads became
Oassable again at least in a meas

TO hitch several horses to an old
bob sled and drag it over the sur
face to be made possible.
Nowadays, at least on the main
highways. the snow is scarcely al
lowed to light until the modern
snow plow is out. The road Is
kept clean and automobiles never
stop. No tighup for a week in
these modern times!
Many no doubt can remember
when the snow would be piled so
high on each side of the road
that in driving through in a
sleigh the entire team would be
hidden from view. And just too
bad if you had to meet another
sleigh!
Speaking of sleighs brings to
mind the happy time of young
Sters, with a new cutter and horse
bedecked with a string of bells.
The old-time bells were quite
large and made quite a different
sound from the later or fine-toned
bells. These bells were placed
around the horses neck or the
center of its body and sometimes
both strings would be used on the
same horse. And those big bob
