Your correspondent has not had an opportunity to hear the vilfage gossip and so the Dee items for this week are rather short. We have plenty oi snow at this writ ing. Some places over six feet, but since the rain of Saturday and Sunday the snow has melted considerably. Our ranchers have been kept busy shovel ing snow off the. roofs of buildings and breaking roads. Tuesday of last week was tbe last time we received the mail, the train not being able torun. Sunday morning our postmaster, Wenc Pashek, with one of the lumber company's drivers, took the week's mail to.Hood Kiver, returning Monday with the Dee mail. It took the men an hour and half to drive from Dee to the Holsteen station, the road being so unbroken. Although we have been practically snowbound, many of the young .folks who have lots of vitality have been en joying tbe winter sport of skiing. The pond at Dee has been frozen over and provides good skating which many enjoy. Greetings from snowbound Fairyland !

The Mount Hood train came up Tuesday of last week for the first time for several days, although men -had been bringing the Dee mail out from Hood Kiver in a sleigh. The prophesy of a dull week turned out to be entirely wfong after all, as there were meetings of some sort crop ping up every day.

The girls arrived at the ranch about 2 o'clock af ter a very strenuous walk, with the rosiest of cheeks, and spent a very en joyable afternoon. Ice cream, delicious assorted cakes and hot chocolate were served by the hostess. Although from the club's name one would think the girls spent the afternoons at their meetines in chatterine and sossiD. tbev really have accomplished much. Sev eral have learned fating : others cro cheting. So kind people, give the girls the benent of the doubt and don t think all they do is chatter, although an eavesdropper would certainly think so from the chattering, giggling and snatches of songs they would be apt to hear.
