Snow For Christmas
Whether it is to he a green
white Christmas is1 still a question
doubt. While a, slight covering
snow covers the .ground at present
it is liable to disappear any day. Ice
making has started at the rink but
owing to the mild weather little pro
gress has been made. There has been
some skating on the ice at the river
above the dam. Hockey players are
anxiously .awaiting the making of Ice. [snow falling on Wednesday almost
assures us of a white Christmas.
