BOOKS

IN BERKSHIRE FIELDS. BY Walter
Pritchard Eaton. New York: Harper
Brothers.
II Thoreau were alive today, and
Joaquin Miller, they would recog-
nize a kindred spirit in Walter
Pritchard Eaton. For when this
author writes of the woods and the
mountains, and their furred and
feathered inhabitants, there is in
his work the Combination of poetic
vision and virile kinship with out
door things which marked the lives
of these two American writers.
Still, to the man or only aver
age opportunity for the observa-
ton of wild life, Mr.. Eaton may
prove a more sympathetic mentor.
for he writes, not Of trackless
forests, long since vanished, or in
accessible peaks, but Of a typical
rural countryside such as may be
found in any of the Eastern States
today.
In his foreword to "In Berkshire
Fields" Mr.. Eaton says: Pre-
eminent in the field of so-called ma
ture writing is. and should be, the
scientific naturalist or botanist,
when he can bring to his task liter
airy grace and charm Yet there
are many among those who write
for whom biological or botanical
science Is, and must remain, i'm
possible of attainment, and yet who
find a delight and refreshment In
wandering among the materials OF
such science, even, perhaps, in
specializing. now and then, on their
own account, from their own OBJ
served data.
The present writer scarcely needs
to confess himself such a one.
Nothing is farther from his inten-
ton, as nothing Is farther from his
ability, than to attempt NATURAL
history, even of the Berkshire Hills
which surround his house and too
mistakenly invite his feet to wan
der"
Yet Is not the part OF the inter
prefer equal in Importance with
that of the Investigator? Take this
from his chapter on birds: The air
without birds would be an aerial
desert. cold and void and without
their song silence would settle
over my garden which would seem
like the silence of the grave, as
II tho life breath had gone out OF
nature; and should be as one

OF ROMANCE, MYSTERY, ADVENTURE

By Winston Churchill.

That was all they said. but Hod-

eyes weere dimmed as she smiled on
her sister and her husband smile
that bespoke the purest quality or
pride. And II was then, as they
made way for others. that the full
value OF their allegiance was borne
In upon him. and he grasped the
fact that the intangible barrier
which had separated him from them
had at last been broken down.
His look followed the square
shoulders and aggressive, close
cropped head of Phil Goodrich, the
grim, athletic figure OF Evelyn, who
had represented to him an entire
class OF modern young women, Wig
orous athletic, with a scorn OF cant
in which he secretly sympathized'
hitherto frankly untouched by spir-
itual interests of any sort. She had
indeed. once bluntly told him that
church meant nothing to her.
In that little company gathered In
the choir room were certain mem
bers of his congregation whom, had
he taken thought, he would least
have expected to see. There were
Mr.. and Mrs. Bradley, an elderly
couple who had attended ST. Johns
for thirty years and others Of the
same unpretentious element OF his
parish who were finding in modern
life an increasingly difficult and be-
wildering problem.

Chew More,
Eat Less

1t sounds absurd to say that we
do not have time to chew our food
sufficiently, yet scientists tell us
that we do not chew 1t enough to
get full benefit Of it's nourishment.
We know that the more thorough
ly our food is chewed. the more
nourishment we receive from 1t, and
consequently the less food we re-
quire. We also know that when
food Is not thoroughly masticated
causes the digestive organs to be
overworked.
How reasonable ii would seem to
be to learn to chew food twice as
long as we usually do, and as a
natural consequence, eat half as
much as we are accustomed to eat
Anu we might add that a natural
result also would be that we would
live twice as long
Old age comes on, we are told, by
the gradual decrease in the bodys
power to eliminate waste matter.
People who practice "Fletcheriz-
ing" or very thorough chewing,
are adding many years to their
lives.
We are accustomed to thinking
Of meat as being the only food
which re z es very thorough mas
tication ; erything we eat or
drink should be taken slowly so as.
to be well mixed with saliva. Even
milk should ~ "'owly slipped in
stead of being . nix as water.
Cheese is on, Il the most nu-
tritious of all foods, but is hard to
digest. One of the reasons most
people find cheese hard to digest
is because it is soft and it is not
necessary to chew 1t well in order
to swallow it, and it is scarcely
chewed at all but goes down the
throat without properly mixing
with the saliva.
Any practice which eliminates
doctors bills and improves the
health is great economy, OF
course, but think too of cutting
that grocery bill in half! When
ordering two pounds of steak for
dinner, remember that one pound
will do even better than two-if
you take time to chew it well.
Take time to chew, and cut that
bacon order in two. That beef
roast for supper would cost consid-
erably less If you planned on taxi
ing time to chew it well.
