HILLSIDE FARMERS
CLUB HAS PICNIC
About rs in Gathering at Sunset Lake
Entertainment Committee Fur
nishes Pleasing Program.

The annual picnic of the Hillside
Farmers club was held Wednesday at
Sunset lake. on Dummerston hill. The
day was ideal for picnicing. At i
clock, when the people were gathered
into the hall for lunch, Mrs. Ray Bet
terley made a list of the names of those
present and found that there were
about 60, with 10 to Is more arriving
later in the day. A large table was
laden with food, and when the people
were seated they were quickly waited
upon by Mrs. James Betterlev, Mrs.
Hescock, Miss E. May Chamberin, Miss
Edna Wheeler, Mrs Thrower and Mrs.
Morris Chamberlin.
After lunch there was a short bust
ness meeting of the Hillside Farmers
club, William Hescock, the president,
presiding. After passing upon the min
utes of the previous meeting it was ar
ranged to discuss at tho next monthly
meeting, to be held probably at J. n.

After adjournment. the entertainment
committee, of which Morris Chamber
lin is chairman, took charge. 1t was
the expectation of Mr.. Chamberlin to
have two interesting speakers take part
in the exercises, and il was therefore
with keen disappointment that he was
obliged to announce that they found it
impossible to attend.
The first part of the entertainment
consisted of reading by Miss f. Briggs
of her fiveday trip through Yellow
stone National Park. A historical out
line was given, followed by reference
to the geographical aspect Of the coun-
try known as The Wonderland of the
West. Then came a description of the
trip, with explanation of the nature of
the formations in the various geyser
basins and at Mammoth Hot Springs
and the Grand Canyon of the Yellow
stone.
| Mr.. Hescock then announced that
| Morris Chamberin would give a selec-
ton, The Earth, which he said was
rather large subject, but thought they
had the man for the Job. Whereupon
Mr. Chamberlin came into the hall, tax

his chest, the better to set off both the
huge diamond in his crayat and his cut
away coat. He also wore a large dia
mond ring, all of which doubtless lee

We learn that a good work in part
has been accomplished at Montpelier by
making sewers for the drainage of that
pleasant village. We think it is about
time for the authorities and citizens of
this village TO be moving in the same
direction The convenience. cleanliness
and health of the village imperatively
demands it. 1t would surprise many to
be told of the dirty holes sending forth
stencil and poisonous vapors to be
found in the village for the want of a
proper system of drainage The doctors
might tell sorry story if they would
of the sickness caused by these poison
Gus fountains. Healing waters from
the springs are not match for IN
