Mild, damp, fair, clear day. Arose 9 A.M. Breakfast etc. Out with Ford delivering eggs. Uncle John & Aunt Gertie here for dinner & day. Took them home with Kissel. Supper. Skating at Central Park 6-8 P.M. To Church to K.S.P. meeting. Boxed. Bowled with Ed. Gemlich. To bed 11:30 P.M.

I guess Stanford is referring to boxing as a recreational activity, perhaps an activity of the Knights of St. Paul?
I wonder what they used for lighting when they skated at night? It must have been electric, but perhaps they skated without lights? Below is a picture of skaters at Central Park in 1922, taken from the book, Images of America: Schenectady.
