FARMERS' MONTHLY OF HAMPSHIRE COUNTY 



EASTHAMPTON CLUBS 



HOLD PICNIC 



The Garden and Canning clubs com- 

 bined forces August Ist, and held an all 

 day picnic in the Mt. Tom State Reserva- 

 tion. Nearly 100 club members were pre- 

 sent at 10 o'clock when the hikers all 

 started from the village, arriving at the 

 reservation about 11 o'clock. Games 

 were played until it was time to build the 

 fires in order to roast frankforts and 

 marshmallows in the concrete fire places 

 for that purpose. A very keen rivalry 

 immediately arose between the boys and 

 the girls as to which could build the best 

 and quickest fire. The girls voted that 

 their crowd under the leadership of Zoe 

 Clark easily won, but the boys were just 

 as insi.stant that their leader, Alfred LeitI 

 had the best fire in the shortest, length of 

 time. Regardless of which side did beat, 

 we all had some excellent roast frankforts 

 to go with the lunch that each one 

 brought. 



In the afternoon, after a short rest a 

 few sports were run off, and than the 

 whole crowd hiked to Goats' Peak where 

 a remarkable view of Easthampton and 

 vicinity was enjoyed by all for an hour. 



It is hard to say how late the club folks 

 would have stayed on the mountain if it 

 were not for a sudden thunder shower 

 that helped a great deal in putting up a 

 new speed record on going down the 

 mountain. Even though possilby a few got 

 wet before they got home, every one 

 found the day a complete .'success. 



You are destined to eat only a certain 

 number of meals on this earth — don't try 

 to eat them all in one day.

Clean ice-cream is wholesome. Don't 

 drown yourself trying fancy "Floats". 



Eat greens — beet greens, almo.st any kind 

 of greens — except poison ivy. 



Give your stomach a daily milk bath. 



Never study sickness — study health. 



Green corn in the stomach often feels like 

 corns on the feet. 



The next time you order a soda, try vege- 

 table soup. 



Avoid strikes. Don't overwork your 

 stomach. 



When you're hungry between meals, cat 

 a glass of water. 



Three hearty meals are worth a whole 

 day of bites. 



You can't eat sweets before a hearty 



meal. If you eat the sweets, you can't 



eat the meal.
