George Kalmbach, foreman at the Cornwell paper mili, has constructed an ice boat with which he took a lively sail on the Huron last Tuesday. It is constructed of gas pipe and is in the form of an ordinary sled with sails attached. VVhen he put it on the ice last Tuesday and climbed on, the sixty-mile zepher blowing, fllled the sails and the inventive George started on one of the livliest trips he has taken in many a day. The cars on the Central were not in it with George's new vehicle. . His stearing apparatus did not work well, however, and the thing ran to shore, but George thinks he can remedy that and in the near future he will try the sail again.
