APOL'T "SKEE JUMPING" DY AN EX- ETER BOY Duluth, M:nh., Jar,. 30, '10 The Advocate, Exeter, Ont. Lear Sirs --1 am pleased to hand you herewith Express/ order in pay- ment for The Advocate to January,1911. The enclosed photographs, taken in Duluth. are illustrative of one of out- most urmost popular ani fascinating winter apc,rta, known as "skcc jumping," and i might incide.,talty state that they are the best photographs of their kind ever taken around this part of the woods. This sport le indulged i:t prin- cipally by the Swe3os and Norwegians: and if you are not familiar with the "game" 1 will briefly elate that the riders slide down a timber slide about 300 feet in length, which distance the riders cover in about four Seco.:de. It might interest you to know that the longest "standing" jump made on this hill was 144 feet, which trick was turned by Ole Tiering at a tournament held Sunday, the 16th of this month, and establishes a new American re'ord. The world's record is 150 fort, made Norway within the last couple of 'years. 1 will here eeplaln that a "_st:tr:ding" jump means a jump with- out a fall. The distance a matt jumps is measur- ed from where he leaves the foot of the timber trestle to where he ligate down the ltil,l and if lie falist he doesn't score, that la, for a record jump, but in competition with other riders he would be credited with so ntarty points, according to the distance he jumped. For instance --one of the contestants at the above mentioned tournament two wick, ago made a . most remarkable jump o: 148 feet, but when he bit the trail he "spilled"; therefore, itis Jump was blank as far as a record wary con- cerned, althoueli good for a certain number of points In competition, which polnt3 are determined by the judges. It is the most daring sport 1 ktttow of, and the aped at which they travel is most terrific. They stake the "Twentieth Century Limited" look like a funeral procession. They also pro- duce what is known as the "team jump' or "twin jump", that is, two riders com- ing down the slide, holding hands .and jumping together. Believe rete. there are some lovely spills. We also have one acrobat who comes down and turns a somersault over the hill. Their tour- naments are held mostly on Sundays, with a brass band and thousands of spectators in attendance If any Sunday stunts like that were ever attempted lit Ctnada, they would all be put in Jail. I thin/cif you show N. D. llurdan this letter and the photographs he will have the sport introduced in Exeter before the winter 1s over. Tours, to a ' swallow", E. 1L.
