STOWE AND MANSFIELD.

The rendezvous of the Vermont
Press association was in Stowe Friday
night, June 81. After dinner in
which fried chicken is remembered q
reception was given to the 80 or more
visitors in Akeley Memorial hall by
the people of Stowe, with program
of speaking, singing and dancing. The
itinerary the next day started with an
automobile ride of 10 miles to Snug
gler's Notch. Several hours was spent
in exploring the beauties of this re-
gion, all finally returning to the bases
of supplies at The Spring, where lunch
was served on the picnic plan. Then
followed tramp of mile and half
back to Barnes's camp, where the au-
tOmobiles had been left Some of the
less agile members of the party went
back by motor cars to Stowe and later
made their destination the Mountain
House on Mount Mansfield, going up
the regular road in ears or teams horse
drawn. Ten happier souls took the
shorter route of three miles, up in the
air, to the summit, over a part of the
Long Trail. They did not mind the
rain which fell heavily before they
reached their haven-thc Mountain
IIouse-close to the mountain top.
There they were greeted by members
of the original Stowe party and others
who came that day to the mountain in
motor cars from Barre, Burlington and
Springfield Mass. The night was spent
at the Mountain House, and the early
morning program included climbs to
the Chin, the highest point in Vermont,
and to the Nose, another peak nearer
the hotel. A party of l0-including
seven of the mixers of the previous
day-was made up to tramp seven to
nine miles down the Long Trail to the
clubhouse of the Lake Mansfield club
at an elevation more than 1000 feet
lower than the mountain top. This trip
with various stops covered a period of
little over four hours. At the club
house came reunion with those who
had ridden down the mountain. After
dinner many of the party left in auto
mobiles for their homes or other points
n few staying at the clubhouse over
night before breaking back to the
buster world.

No painter can put upon the canvas
and no photographer can catch for the
moving film the beauties and infinite
variety as such views from Mansfield
present. The scenes, extending for
many miles, bring into the panorama
mountains, hills, valleys, lakes, wan
dering streams, quiet farmhouses, snug
villages. Lake Champlain and the
Adirondacks come intoN view on the
west, and the broken, jagged country
extending to Mount Washington in the
White Mountains on the east. Even

charm in the shifting, lacy curtains of
