It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/25655-h/images/i-001.png b/25655-h/images/i-001.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644

A. LEAVITT. + + + + +[Illustration: SKATING PARTY.] + +THE SKATING PARTY. + + +One cold winter's morning, Willie's mother promised to take him to see +the skaters on the river. Willie was in great glee, and when they +arrived at the river, he wanted to go on the ice but his mother was +afraid to venture. The river was frozen very hard, and the merry skaters +seemed almost to fly, they went so fast over the glib ice. Now and then +one of them would fall down, causing a burst of laughter from the +others; but he would jump up and go it again. Skating is a pleasant and +healthful exercise, but sometimes dangerous, for should the ice break +many would probably be drowned. Little boys should be careful how they +venture, and not go near air holes. + + + + +[Illustration: THE ARREST.] + +THE ARREST. + + +As Harry Somers and his father were one day walking along the street, +they saw a policeman leading a poor ragged little boy, who seemed very +much frightened. Mr. Somers asked the policeman, what he had been doing. +The man told him, that the little boy had been caught in the act of +stealing cakes and apples, from the stand of a poor woman. Mr. Somers +told Harry, that it was very likely that miserable boy had drunken +parents who encouraged him to lie and steal, and that when he grew up, +he would be likely to turn out a bad man, and cautioned Harry not to +keep bad company. + + + + +[Illustration: THE SOLDIERS.] + +THE SOLDIERS. + + +Hark! What noise is that? I surely heard a drum. Look there is a company +of boys dressed up like soldiers. One playing the fife, another the +drum, while at the side of the company, stands a boy, with his drawn +sword over his shoulder, for all the world like a captain. And then +there is another, with the flag flying, as proudly as if he was in +reality bearing the colors of a real troop. Well, boys will be boys. And +this little company, have had their minds filled with brave thoughts +from infancy perhaps. It may be, that in that little company of +boy-soldiers, there is one whose name will be yet heard of in the +history of his country. + + + + +[Illustration: THE DEPOT.] + +THE DEPOT. + + +Here is a picture of a rail-road depot, and passengers awaiting the +arrival of the cars. There are many very handsome depots in the United +States furnished with every thing that will afford comfort for +travellers. The cars too are sometimes very beautiful. Accidents very +often happen on rail-roads, and lives are often lost by the the +carelessness of those having charge of the locomotive. They go very +fast; indeed so fast, that you cannot see the houses, or trees along +the road. + + + + +[Illustration: THE POSTMASTER.] + +THE POSTMASTER. + + +In olden times, in country towns, they had no post offices, as we now +have; but a man was appointed by the authorities, whose duty was to +travel on horseback from one village to another, with his bag of +letters, and deliver them to the persons to whom they are directed. +His arrival was always anxiously looked for, and men, women and +children, ran to meet him, all wanting letters, and feeling greatly +disappointed if he had not one for them. But now we have post offices +in almost every little town, where the mails arrive regularly. + + + + +[Illustration: THE FUNERAL.] + +THE FUNERAL. + + +See that slow and solemn procession. What does it mean? Ah! there is a +coffin, carried by four persons, called pall bearers. Some one has been +called upon to die; to return to the God who made him. See his friends +weeping, as slowly the coffin is born to the grave. Death is a very +solemn affair, children. We all have to die some time, and after +a-while, your turn will come, and you will be laid in the cold dark +earth to rise again at the day of judgment. + + + + +[Illustration: SCISSORS GRINDER.] + +THE SCISSORS GRINDER. + + +Oh! here he comes, his little bell tinkling, and inviting those who have +knives or scissors that want sharpening to give him a call, as he won't +charge them much, and will sharpen the ladies' scissors, so that they +will cut like razors. See that little dog, how he watches the operation, +and then there is a little boy hastening with his mother's scissors, +no doubt as well pleased with the importance of his errand, as if he was +a great man. Poor old man he has a hard time to make an honest penny and +yet he is as cheerful, as if he was wealthy. + +[Illustration] + + + + + * * * * * + + + + +[Illustration: HAYMAKING.] + +HAYMAKING. + + +After the grass is cut, it is spread out to dry and then put up in +heaps, called stacks. If it should happen to rain, it has again to be +spread out, and subjected to the heat of the sun, for if it was put into +the barn wet it would all rot, and be good for nothing. As soon as it is +thoroughly dried the farmers take their hay-wagons and go out into the +field and gather it up. This is anxiously waited for by the children, +who delight to ride home on the top of the loads of sweet hay, pleased +with the success of the farmers. + + + + +[Illustration: MISCHIEVOUS HARRY.] + +MISCHIEVOUS HARRY. + + +Harry Smith was a very mischievous little boy, and delighted to tease +his sister Sarah who had a very quick temper. This only made him worse, +and he was often punished for his rude behavior. One day he took his +sister's doll, a present from her father, and was in the act of hiding +it in a drawer when the door opened, and in walked his sister. He was +caught in the very act; he ran and she after him, crying loudly, until +their mother who had been reading, interfered, scolding Harry for his +mischievous tricks, and Sarah for her temper. The doll was restored, and +she was pacified. + + + + +[Illustration: SNOW-BALLING.] + +SNOW-BALLING. + + +This is a sport that most boys really love. Most of them are impatient +for the snow to fall, as then they anticipate enjoying themselves in a +game of snow-ball. For this purpose they go to some open lot, and form +parties. Oftentimes, however, they become excited, especially when one +of them is hit in the eye, and the sport becomes earnest and leads to +bad results. This should not be; the balls of snow, should be soft, so +that no one may be hurt; though we are sorry to say some little boys put +in their snow-balls, stones and pieces of ice, which is a very dangerous +practice. + + + + +[Illustration: THE RESCUE.] + +THE RESCUE. + + +Some boys are very venturesome, and will rush into danger, no matter how +often they read of accidents that happen to others, and constantly +disobey the commands of their parents. George Harris, was one of these. +His father had told him again and again, not to climb trees in search of +bird's nests; but George thought there would be no danger. So one day he +got up a tree, after a bird's nest, lost his balance, and fell into +the creek, and would have been drowned, had not one of his playmates +nobly rescued him from a watery grave. He never tried it ever again, +however; it was a lesson he never forgot. + + + + +[Illustration: THE BURIAL.] + +BURIAL OF POOR KITTY. + + +Poor little Kitty died. Little Mary cried, as if her heart would break. +Kitty was her only pet, and one which she had loved very dearly. She +asked her brother George, if he would not make a coffin, and dig a grave +to bury it in. Her brother pitied her distress and readily promised to +do as she wished. At last the day came, on which it was to be put in +the cold damp earth, and all the children attended the funeral, sobbing, +and feeling very solemn, as the coffin was slowly lowered into the grave +prepared for its reception. All was over and with slow and reluctant +steps they departed for home, little Mary, weeping violently. + + + + +[Illustration: BLIND MAN'S BUFF.] + +BLIND MAN'S BUFF. + + +This innocent amusement, is familiar to all children, and scarcely needs +a description. It causes a great deal of laughter, and as laughter is a +very healthy exercise, we can heartily recommend this play. One of a +number of children is blind folded, and led into the middle of the room, +while the rest softly go to distant parts of the room, and he tries to +find them. He cuts a funny figure, as with his arms out-stretched he +feels his way and very often stumbles against a chair, or over one of +the boys, who to add greater zest to the sport, stoops down on the +floor. + + + + +[Illustration: THE MAGNET.] + +THE MAGNETIC SWAN. + + +As Willie had been a very good boy, and learned his lessons well, his +father bought him a magnet and swan. Willie was delighted, and procured +a large basin of water in which he put the swan, and taking the magnet +in his hand, the swan followed the magnet around the basin, to the +wonder and astonishment of his little sister, who could not understand +how it was. Her father tried to explain, but she could not understand. + + + + +[Illustration: THE STUDIOUS AND IDLE BOY.] + +THE STUDIOUS AND IDLE BOY. + + +As George was one day deeply engaged studying his lessons, his cousin +Charles came in and asked him why he sat there all day, and wanted to +know whether he would not join him in his sports. George told him, that +he could not, though he would like to very much; he had his lessons to +study, and if he did not learn them well, he would be punished for his +idleness. Charles laughed at him and called him a mope; but his +conscience told him that George was right, and that he ought to like +him; but he was too full of play to think much about his lessons. + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's The Skating Party and Other Stories, by Unknown + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK SKATING PARTY AND OTHER STORIES *** + +***** This file should be named 25655.txt or 25655.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/5/6/5/25655/ + +Produced by Jacqueline Jeremy and the Online Distributed +Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net (This file was +produced from images generously made available by The +Internet Archive/American Libraries.) + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5.
