rihe hills seemed almost insurmounh hie and the route endless, before Olsburg was reached. The next day some of the walked as if they were crippled and others were absent, we suppose because they were not accustomed to lack of sleep. Another such skating party was-planned to be held on the following Thursday evening. This time the intentions were that cars should be usedl as a means of conveyance instead of walking. The abundant, snowfall during that day caused the students to drop the idea of skating and stay at home with the stove.
