Sleighing Party Ends Disastrously Some sixteen pupils of the coun- ty high school, accompanied by a chaperon, started Saturday evening for a sleigh ride and in- cidentally a dance at Canton. In rigging up for the ride, due pre- caution was not taken is proper- ly looking after the proper safe- ty devises, for a journey of this kind, especially overlooking the fact that their horses instead of being ice shod, wore skates. As a natural result when some 5 miles from town, one horse clipped in one direction and another went the other way and so on, until one landed full force on the tongue of the sleigh,breakingsaid tongue so seriously that further progress was impossible. No other solu- tion of the dijernma presenting itself to the crowd of merrymak- ers so the whole hunch, chaperon and all, proceeded to walk the entire distance to Townsend, where they all arrived safely about 5 o'clock Sunday morning a sadder, if not a wiser crew of jolly sleigh riders.
