EDITOR
HlNDLEY'S
PRESENTATIONS
Says that Woods and Lang
May Have Rival in the
Senatorial Contest

Editor Howard L. Hindley of
the Rutland Herald was one of the
guests at the recent reunion of the
1921 Senate at Lake Mansfield
and contributes the following racy
"Perigrinations" to his paper:
Hang a pail of sap on a limb
for a few days" said one, "and
see what you get
Sap, cocoanut and pumpkins
were among the Illicit. booch de-
vices discussed at the recent meet
ing of senator statesmen at Lake
Mansfield.
drill a hole in a cocoanut, drain
out the milk fill it with molasses
and let it set 40 days, then o Boy"
"Do the same thing to a pump
kim" said another; so if you hear
of senatorial sapheads, enlarged
cocos and alcoholic punkinheads
don't blame me.
And that Senate oted dry, al
most to a man, or perhaps five or
six of the faithful! But | really
don't think they'll get anywhere
with such crude devices.
