One of tho principal joys of my child
hood was playing In the snow. Ahovo
nil, t enjoyed building snow men.
I remember once and some of my
playmates worked bard and long nt this
amusing pleeo of work. We rolled tho
snow In it large ball; thin wan (bo body.
A smaller ball served for the head. Thn
eyes worn made of lumps of coal and
sticks served for a nose and mouth.
Wo were greatly pleased with our
man when ho was flnhdied. lie stood
this way for several days, until one day
the sun enmo out and smiled warmly
