February Is usually the coldest month
of the year iu tho northern portion of
our laud. Then the north wind blows
Its fiercest blasts, and Jack Frost
gets busy making ice for young folks.
Nobody clsy seems to appreciate his
efforts In this line, but what good are
a pair of skates and nowhere to use
them? So It bus happened this year
that Mr. Frost bus won u great many
friends in New York city. He has
provided good skating iu Central purk.
and the roller skates so often seen
on its concrete walks have been ban
ished, and Ice skates are the thing.
Crowds f children have made the old
trees shiver with their merry shouts,
and of course King Winter is pleased.
The little girl In the picture was on
the way to the ico when the photog
rapher snapped her the other day.
She is Miss Louise Iselln. daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Krnest Iselln.
A Queer Expression.
As most of you know, wild geese
whn they fly away In the fall of the
year form themselves into lines shaped
much like the letter V. the leader fly
ing at the Hliit and the others fol
lowing the two lines. In tills way they
noil far above the danger line, the dan
ger line being the hunter's gun. In
olden times, when the country folk
realized the happiness of these birds
In their safety 1 for their chorus of
"honk, honk, honk" floated down to
the cottagers and sounded joyoust,
they would look up and say. "Every
thing Is lovely and the goose lionlis
high." By nnd by It became natural,
when two persons met each other un
der peculiarly favorable circumstances
for this or that enterprise, for them to
say. "Kverything is lovely and the
goose honks high." and the expression
is still used. Now when you hear it
you can tell your friends its origin.
